What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

[Rick Cicchetti]

Pulled the POS 66RFE with only 69,000 miles on it out of it. Very disappointing.

Replaced the Napa blower motor with a Mopar blower motor. Seems to blow harder with the factory blower motor.

Found the source of a horrible noise that had been driving me crazy for months

Took out the cold air intake and put the stock airbox back in. I saw fine dust post filter with the K&N and that was enough of a reason for me to go back to stock.

That's awful! I don't want to jinx it but I'm at 179k on my 545rfe and have been somewhat surprised it's still going. 69k seems very low mileage to give out

Finally washed 'er for the first time in a few months. which led to a nice sun rise when I got back home from work. Still debating on which bumpers I want to buy since my rear bumper is still caved in.

changed the front bumper to Rebel bumper.

Did the rear diff fluid change today. Long overdue, only 2nd time I did it in 160K miles.
Fluid looked pretty good though. Used Valvoline synthetic 75w140. First time using those squeezable bags, made the job easy. About 2 and a half quarts.

I did the same job with the same fluid recently. Whoever invented those squeeze bags is a genius

Yeah, I didn't know that was a thing until this week. Good stuff!

I sprayed frame (inside and out) with Woolwax. Actually more of a touchup. I bought a 5 gallon pail 4 years ago and still got about half of it left. That stuff really stays put, unlike fluidfilm. It's also lanolin based but a thicker formula.

I have been using KROWN for past few years and it does drip awhile after sprayed ! Wool Wax is starting to show its face up here so may give it a shot

Love Woolwax. Imo it’s the best lanolin product you can put on any vehicle

104,621miles
Transmission service
Huge difference in shifting. Fluid wasn’t too discolored. No debris in pan.
2018 Big Horn new to me in 2019. Driven 145 miles on Monday then 145 miles back on Friday. Usually entirely at 60mph.

 

[Badger 13]

I changed out my Sport grille inserts to Honeycomb ones, and added the R/T emblem.

 

[PA Ram]

Can anyone with a diablosport tuner confirm that their servers are down? Tried to update via ignition updater and it failed so tried via Wi-Fi which also fails.

 

[Drifter667]

Bought a couple new tools and planning to have another whack at my lower ball joints, also need to redo the wiring on my underglow kit, one of the wires is defective.

Just waiting for a day off and a cool morning to do it.

 

[Kid's HEMI! !!]

first oil change on 392 swap yesterday dropped off at shop today to recharge ac and tuning

So I searched the forum for a thread like this and didn't find anything. I figured it would be fun to have a thread that everyone can watch what everyone is doing each week.

This week I put on Steelcraft nerf bars, and right now I'm getting the permaplating put on the truck. This way it gets a real good bath.

I had one of my exhaust hangers break on a trip to NC, our company mechanic welded up for me for free, but was “less than straight”.
I figured for the cost I couldn’t complain, but bothered me every time I saw it.
I took it to the custom exhaust shop that installed my cats, wasn’t free but happy with the work.

Put in new front brake pads today after realizing the ball joint removal tool I bought is too small, gonna take care of those too in the next few days.

Can't you just back off the bolt, and give the arm a couple good whacks? It's how I've always done ball joints without buggering things with a pickle fork or fancy tool.

 

[Drifter667]

I had attempted to do it that way until I realized the 4lb hammer I was using was taking small pieces of the arm, though one of the tools I just bought is a plastic dead blow so I may end up seeing how that works.

That said I now have a ball joint fork, ball joint separator tool, two hammers, and two ball joints that keep mocking me... either way I'm going to be attempting to do this again today, hopefully the last time lol
