    2018 Rebel with air suspension blowing fuse F05

    Ram Forum folks, All right, it’s the wife’s Ram a 2018 Ram Rebel with all the bells and whistles including air suspension. A few weeks back it dropped down in front onto the bump stops. I reviewed the threads here and R&R’d fuse #F05 which was bad. I reset the suspension and all seemed fine...

    DIY spray in Bed liner options/opinions?

    raptor liner is a good product but keep in mind, the liner product is only 20% of the end result. Proper paint prep, adhesion prep spray, sanding material, tape, paper and paint cleaning materials not only add to the expense but to your time involved. So, if you need $200 for Raptor liner...

    You might want to check that shallow BFG tread depth too.

    Did bad shocks make these tires bald?

    One worn more than other; tire spin. Cupping, bar wear better front tires; lack of rotation. Center wear; over inflation.

    Tire Question

    I’m running 285/70R17s on my ‘19 classic with no problems. It is a factory tire size for the Rebel. Your rims though are an inch narrower than recommended for that tire size.

    Salta’s & 35/37s?

    Look at some of the new R/T tires that have come out, a blend of A/T and M/T. They’ll ride and wear better and be much quieter than the BFG KM3s. I just put a pair of Federal Xplora R/Ts on a trailer and am considering the Kenda 628 R/Ts for another truck.

    Anyone with 4x4 1500 do you put weight in the back during winter?

    The easiest potentially useful material to carry for winter weight is a couple of bales of hay. They’ll absorb water and get heavier and if you get stuck you can cut a band and you have ready to go traction material. In the spring cut the bands and add to a compost pile.

    Regeneration=Burning Rubber Smell

    my first thought is wheel bearings and/or cv joints. Anything in the wheel well, back of the wheel? We had a Subaru years ago that would cook the inner CV joint in heavy traffic.

    Tps replacement

    Not a thing. The vehicle reads the wheel mounted sensor all by itself. As long as it’s the right model/frequency it’ll take care of itself.

    Fiat-Chrysler becoming “Stellantis”

    Fiat is a EUROPEAN car company. it merged with ANOTHER EUROPEAN car company, Peugeot. The impact on American operations will be minimal. They created a new name for the holding company, BIG DEAL. Anyone old enough to remember all the similar ventures that owned Jeep at one time or another...

    2008 ram 3.7 going from 3.55 to 4.56 gear

    Ii have the 3.6l in my JKU with 373s and the 5.7l Hemi with 321s in my SLT. Wife has the 392s in her 1500. Day and night between them and how they drive.

    2008 ram 3.7 going from 3.55 to 4.56 gear

    The problem I see is that sure your RPMs are down but the 3.6 develops most of its power and torque above 3,000 RPM. 90% of your maximum torque is developed in the band between 1900-6300RPM.

    31" to 29" Tires = the same as 3.21 to 3.55 gear?

    Not to mention the increased wheel slip in poor traction.

    What else can cause brake shuddering?

    Those need turned (recut on a lathe)

    What else can cause brake shuddering?

    When rotors glaze over from over heating repeatedly they are likely hardened deeper than just the surface. That’s why you change them.

    What else can cause brake shuddering?

    Calipers are likely fine. If those glazed pads have put a shine on those rotors, then turn them and put on new CLEAN pads.
  25. kmrtnsn

    What else can cause brake shuddering?

    You put old glazed pads on new rotors? If you didn’t rough the pad surfaces I’d say glazed pads trying to grip a clean surface is your problem. I’d now take the rotors off, have them resurfaced and then put in new pads.
