06 hemi stalling

[wrightty]

My 2006 ram 1500 hemi 4x4 is stalling when I back out of the drive way or when I stop and start to take off without giving enough gas, seems to always be when idling. I have a 6" lift on it and 35" tires as well. Replaced the EGR, PCV, and no check engine light is on. Also seems to buck a little when taking off. Trans is rebuilt, and truck has 456 gears. When it stalls it will start right back up after putting in park. Idle will drop to around 3 or 400 when shifting and that seems to be when it stalls if I don't step on the gas quick enough. Anyone have any ideas?

I would start by checking the transmission fluid level. Drive it around for a while then park on a level spot and check it with the trans in neutral. If it's low it can cause the engine to stall at low rpm. Could also be a clogged transmission filter.

Do these rams have fuel filters? If so id check that.

Edit: nvm. Its inside the tank. Not serviceable. Check silly easy things like your TB. Make sure its clean. When its bucking does it seem like theres no power? Does anything make clunking noises or anything? I just feel like its a fuel issue... idk why lol

Did you just have the trans rebuilt? Or has it been that way for a while?

It could be a fuel issue, could be a throttle control issue, but these trucks are prone to problems with the trans filter letting fluid drain back out of the converter, which can cause it to stall. If it happens constantly, not just at the first startup after sitting for a while, then it may not be the trans.
