    Ball Joints After 42K miles?

    Just did mine last weekend on a 2500, not a terrible job but definitely time consuming the first time/side. Second side went much quicker but watch a few videos. I made a few mistakes changing mine and didnt follow the videos exactly, not taking off the top spindle nut first completely costed me...

    Transmission Failure - Denied Warranty Claim - Help!

    Its a rough one, have fought the dealer myself a few times...... The issue you will have is that it is showing overloaded/overused or whatever it is. Granted they need to prove it but, the code does prove it unless you can prove the code is not correct (good luck witht hat one). I wish you the...

    ABS Pump #4

    Well it seems that my pump Went out at 60K (under warranty), at 93K the 2nd one died and Ramcares opened a case which Chrysler reimbursed me for, and now at 120K and 11 months later my module is coding again. Has anyone else has multiple ABS pumps replaced? It seems insane that his will be the...

    52 gallon gasoline tank 2016 LB 2500

    I would call Titan and ask them. Put one in my 2018 CC 6'5 bed last week, I am assuming it should work.... I had the 32 gallon, went to the Titan 52 gallon. Not sure if it will bother you but without reprograming the Distance To Empty, the tank will read 580 range for like 300 miles, then the...

    Dash lights were cycling all night until the batterys went dead

    Hello, my truck is a 2018 2500 Laramie 6.7 CCSB. I installed the 52 gallon titan tank this weekend (I DO NOT recommend doing it without a lift BTW, PITFA), and Monday I tried using alphaobd to program the new tank size. I did not change anything since I needed a security cable to write changes...

    Second ABS pump motor control replaced

    I was in the same exact boat as you. Had one done in 8/2020 and another one installed last month (at the time it was within 1 month of the 24 month warranty ending. My dealer explained that the AB part will not be available until some time after 1/2023. My dealer did not have the part in stock...

    2018 Ram 4x4 diesel - "service anti-lock brake system"

    I feel your pain and frustration, going through this for the second time now. Had the same exact issue 25 months ago. They give you a 24 month warranty on repair & replacement part, mine died again right after the warranty was up. This part is grounds for a class action lawsuit and my dealer...

    Anyone running Michelin Defender tires?

    Defenders are my go to tire. My 2500 is my daily driver and work truck 3 days a week carrying light loads (2-14 hours each way)...... I will never run anything else, Michelin Defenders are the best all around tire in my opinion. I normally wait until BJ's or Costco has a $150 off a set of 4...

    DDM Tuning Saber ProX 55W Accu/V2

    I just replaced my 55w HID's with the "ddm tning saber proX 55w" and they were a significant upgrade (it appears my HID bulb's got some damage to the glass and were effecting the output intensity). Truth be told, I recently installed the Diode Dynamics SS3 PRO Led Fog Light Kit and it made me...

    Replace that Steering Dampener - You will notice a difference - I did

    I changed mine also to the "Fox Shocks Performance Series 2.0 Smooth Body IFP Stabilizer" and it made a world of difference. After installing it there was a slight pull to the right which 2 alignment shops could not get rid (but I did get my wheel straightened out finally with the new draglink...

    Transmission thermostat bypass failures?

    2018 68RFE wihich currently has over 50K with the bypass and truck runs much cooler. 130-140 in Florida daily driving & trips, but I do notice it can hit up to 170 in heavy slow traffic. I did initial fluid change at 50K, and every 25-30 after that... cheap insurance.

    18, 2500 70K on the clock. Well I have smelled it many times and my radiator light was coming on when the truck was cold but after running it for a minute it went away so I thought it was the switch in the reservoir. Im down about half a gallon overall, no antifreeze in oil, not sure what is the...

    Leather damage, what can you do?

    The door panel is faux leather and the armrest is a bonded leather. It looks like your experimentation with various products has damaged both areas and faded or stained it. Try something like Zymoil leather cleaner, a couple of times within an hour or so BEFORE you put any conditioner back on...
