    Hard shifting in Tow/Haul 68RFE

    I've got a 2014 2500 with the 68RFE. I replaced the valve body with a revmax unit, and the truck has a tuner on it, which includes transmission tunes. Driving around normally, I have no problems. When I put it in tow/haul mode, it holds 3rd gear for what feels too long, and the slams into 4th...

    Morimoto HID bulbs (knock-offs?)

    I just bought a set of Morimoto HID bulbs for my truck. I did not buy them direct from Morimoto. The bulbs I received are in a Morimoto box, but nothing else has any branding on it. I have another morimoto HID bulb that I got used, and it has markings on it, and all of the rubber pieces are the...

    How to Bypass (Trick) Seat Belt Switch

    I've tried finding information about how to bypass the seatbelt switch in our trucks. The only information I have found is to get an extender, and leave it plugged in all of the time. You can disable the beeping with a manual process, or by using AlfaOBD. I have the beeping turned off, but the...

    All-Terrain tire life on HD trucks

    I am in the market for new tires on my 14 2500, 285/60/20. I ran Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT for the last 28,000 miles, and they are now down to the wear bars. I've been happy with the Coopers, but hoping that another brand may give me some more mileage out of their all-terrain tires. -Cooper...

    2018+ Ram/Jeep security

    I have used AlfaOBD on my 2014 Ram 2500, and my previous 2012 Ram 1500, and possibly my mom's 06 Jeep Commander (can't remember if changes actually took) These have all worked as intended. I now have a few friends and family members that would like some changes made on some newer Chrysler...

    Remote start switched power wire location?

    I want to find a switched 12v power wire that comes on when I remote start the truck with the factory system. I know a handful of things, such as the AC and radio start up, and stay running when you switch the ignition on, that's what I would like, just need to find a wire. Does anyone know of a...

    UTV/Side x Side Comparisons

    My wife and I have decided to get a side by side. Want to put it in our toy hauler and go out to some off road parks and trails. My debate at the moment is between a Polaris RZR S 900 and a Polaris General. I've also looked at the Can-Am Commander, but I have a Polaris dealership in town, so...

    Revmax Valve Body Upgrade (help needed)

    I ordered a Billet valve body for my 68RFE transmission. Went to get it installed on the truck last night, but the sump filter screen doesn’t fit around the new valve body. Has anyone else installed one of these valve bodies before? Install instructions just say to bolt up a new filter, but the...

    Using phone as Monitor app

    A few months ago, someone posted about using an old phone as a vehicle monitor, and having an app that will automatically turn the phone off and on, or something to that effect. I've tried searching the forums, and can't find that post again. Not having much luck searching the internet either...

    Help me understand Tuners

    I understand what a tuner does. Basically re-flashes your ECU with different information to make the truck run differently. What I am no longer understanding is the difference between the brands. They all talk to the ECU, and give it a new tune based on what company you buy the tune from. Is...

    How to: Column Shifter Lock Repair

    For reference, I have a 2014 Ram 2500. Mine is diesel, but I'm sure the same components are on the gas versions. Recently, I have noticed that taking my truck out of park was difficult, but only when the temperatures dropped outside. After I was able to take it out of park, I could put in back...

    Shift Lock Solenoid

    2014 Ram 2500 CTD. Push button starter. The last few days, it has been cold outside. I will remote start the truck, about 5-10 minutes before walking out. I get in the truck, push the start button, give everything a minute to load, then push the brake to shift out of park. When pulling the...

    Where to buy OEM running boards?

    I had a small accident earlier this week, and my driver's side running board now has a dent down it. I'm really surprised how well it held up, and I really like the look of them on my truck. I've tried looking online a bit, but the only options I'm finding are the 2019 style directly from Mopar...

    Tool Chest Install

    This past weekend, I bought a tool chest for my truck. Specifically, this one: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/tractor-supply-46-in-texture-black-tool-box-chest I'm trying to figure out a good way to mount it in the bed in a way that I can still remove it, as I am not sure how often I...

    Re-Gen mode

    I have a 2014 6.7 that is 100% stock. I run my OBD Link app on my phone when driving to see my exhaust temps. I let the sensor right after the turbo drop below 400 before shutting off the truck. I read something talking about shutting off the engine with a hot turbo can start cooking the small...

    Skewed Odometer

    I don't always pay close attention to my odometer, but when I parked at my office this afternoon, I noticed the reading was 65,999.4. Since I'm slightly OCD, I thought, "Cool, I should hit an even 66,000.0 at a light just down the road" When I got in the truck to leave, I looked at the odometer...

    Back seat mod doesn't work for my truck?

    I first heard about this mod a few months ago. I loosened the seat bolts, looked at the space, and said "not today". A few weeks later, I got a new fold flat floor for the back seat, which required removing 2 out of the 4 bolts, so I looked at it again, and once more thought "not today". I saw...

    Cleaning Bed Liner

    I have a new to me 2014 that has white stains on the black spray in liner. I'm not sure what it is, but guessing it is some form of paint. One piece looked like wall spackle. I have tried a handful of things to clean it (DIY car wash pressure washer soap, mineral spirits, motorcycle chain...

    How to disable the rear view mirror monitor

    I installed the backup camera re-route kit from infotainment in my truck about a month ago. Had to do a minor soldering fix when installing, but has worked great since then. I like having the image in the radio, but the screen lighting up inside my mirror just annoys me. I had to back into my...

    Tow Mirror Turn Signal

    Half of the turn signal quit working in my driver's side tow mirror. Tried doing some online searching for the part, but finding multiple part numbers, and prices anywhere from $30 up to $100 with the same descriptions. My mirrors are chrome, I read the signals are different between chrome and...

    Clip on tow mirrors - SOLD

    SOLD Got these from another member, then traded out my truck, so I no longer need them. They firmly fit on my mirrors when I test fit them, and are adjustable. Bought these for the price of shipping, offering the same deal to anyone else who wants them. I believe I paid $30.

    Front Bumper Grille for 2500 Gas

    Got this from another member here, turns out it doesn't fit on a diesel truck as the intercooler shroud is in the way. Model number is 68066341AB. Should fit 4th gen 2500/3500 trucks with a gas engine. It will bolt up in a diesel, but would take a little bit of trimming on the sides to make it...

    Uconnect 8.4 3G signal

    I have been playing with features on my 2014, and managed to get a 3 month trial for the Uconnect package. I can get the app to control my truck, but it is really slow. It seems to not work at all if I have a sun visor in the windshield. Oddly enough, it seemed to work a lot faster when I was...

    Fluid Change Intervals/Capacities

    I was reading about differential fluids, and realized that I need to change out quite a few oils on my truck. I have 63,000 miles, and no idea when anything was done before I bought the truck. I changed the oil over the weekend, and oddly enough, the engine sounds noticeably quieter now. I've...
