    Help with sway bar end links

    By bpolly2004

    About a year or a year and a half ago I leveled my 09 ram 4wd with a bilstein 5100's, zone control arms and replaced other items like the sway bar end links and lower control arms. I noticed my passenger side front tire is cupping. Not terrible yet but I dont want it to get worse. I seen my sway bar end links looked bad the tops of the washers were slicing thru the bushings. The bushings are shot. When i bought the end links from rock auto I went cheap. I got the cheap 1 year end links just... Read more

    Any interest in a manual tailgate latch kit?

    By Boyhowdee

    Trying to guage the interest level in electric tailgate latch delete kit for 2019 and up. I am in the process of converting a 2024 Classic tailgate to fully manual latch. We are using Gen 4 mechanical latches and rods as well as a Gen 4 mechanical latch handle. We are building an adapter panel to allow mounting the handle in the larger tailgate opening. My buddy that is doing the work wonders if there is a market for selling a kit to delete the electric latches and revert back to a... Read more

    2018 Failed ABS HCU Teardown

    By Choupique

    Finally got around to ripping into my failed HCU today. Found the root cause for my failure. The spring behind one of the brushes is either broken or the channel is gunked up or something. When I push the rotor slightly away, it loses contact. Push it the other way and the other side brush will hold contact most of the way, but not entirely. Someone who was inclined to do so could repair this themselves. The motor is easy to remove. The intermittent contact makes perfect sense with the... Read more

    5.7 topend rebuild or crate motor?

    By CLINTCOL84

    I recently had the timing chain tensioner on my 2014 1500 crap out and take valves and pushrods with it. I still need to check for bent connecting rods,camshaft/lifter damage and also want to see how much metal is in the oil,if any. So I am for sure at least gonna be rebuilding the top end of the motor (heads cam lifters) if the block checks out. If not than probably gonna get a crate motor. The truck is in too good of shape otherwise to walkway from. Just looking for suggestions on... Read more

    Red Lightning Bolt on dash

    By John Huffman

    Good morning. I have searched on the forum for red lightning bolt issues and although there are plenty, I could find none for my particular problems. I just recently started getting the bolt. The truck runs fine when it pops up but it will not shift into overdrive and cruise control will not turn on. Twice now, I have shut the truck off for a few minutes and started it back up and no issues, until this last time. The first bump I hit made it come back on. Unlike so many others on here, I...

    HD Front Coils on 3500 4x4?

    By lincolnmatthews

    My 1st post, had my 99 3500 for over 20 yrs now. Always has had a heavy camper on it. Never has really ever steered great (as I guess most all of this generation does as I'm been told). For the last 12 yrs I've been running Michelin XPS traction tires, I always thought these contributed to the constant steering corrections needed on the hwy. Having new AT Nitto tires being installed on Monday (it may help)?. Trucks always been well maintained, 150k miles now, new track bar installed awhile... Read more

    2026 Laramie Connect issues-help!

    By JKH5199

    I have a 2026 Laramie with 500 miles on it. Had it 2 weeks. The infotainment system is giving me fits. CarPlay will connect and then disconnect and won't connect again unless I do reset. Screen says I have map updates when I turn car off, but I can't connect to wifi at all. It did when I first got the truck but won't anymore. Most the time the screen will either stay in dark mode when it becomes light outside or only one widget will be light while others are dark. Also system seems really... Read more

    What would cause my oil pressure to change suddenly?

    By Yeti15

    Hey all, got another oil pressure question for everyone! I’ll try to keep this as succinct as possible. The truck: 2015 1500 V8 4x4 with 180k miles. I’m the original owner and do all maintenance/ repairs myself which fortunately hasn’t been anything I haven’t been able to tackle so far. Since day 1 I’ve always ran PUP 5-20 with the wixXp filter. Truck has never thrown codes outside of a faulty gas cap and a random code here and there but nothing ever serious. The problem: A few months... Read more

    Oil Cooler Crack or improper filter cap seal

    By reschkem76

    Looking for some advice here. The other day the 2014 Ram 1500 3.6 just started gushing oil somewhere in the undercarriage after a drive back from an errand. Maybe a couple quarts - that much. Made an incredible mess to say the least. Mostly around the transmission pan area. Had just changed the oil a month ago, so oil was still looking pretty clean. I removed the old filter cap and noticed the O-ring was a little loose/stretched. It's my sons truck, he was helping me, and he took... Read more

    Grinding noise

    By speck1

    I recently purchased a 2019 Ram 3500 Tradesman Diesel long box with 90,000 klm. It has new Toyo tires that are AT. It has a front end scraping/ grinding noise when making turns at highway speed (50+mph). When making turns in town at lower speeds no noise. The shop could hear nothing on road testing around town which I told them the would not at those speeds. They checked the lugnuts, the backing plates, bearings , lower bumper bad and mud flaps and all were good. Any experience with type of... Read more

    know where I can find rubber / plastic plugs for the inside of the rocker panel area?

    By spelunk68

    So I was doing the woolwax (fluid film alternative, supposedly a little better) undercoating on my new ram and while under it there are oval holes to access the inside of the rocker (into the the back cab corners as well) area, like 5 or 6 in a line on each side. Being the spot my 4th gen rotted out (hardley any rust on the frame but the bottom cab corners same spot on both sides was rotted to a large hole, I did not even catch it since they were rotting under the paint from the insuide till...

    5 inch to 12 inch upgrade Alfaobd settings

    By Twfish

    Hello all, first time poster long time lurker. Getting ready to do the upgrade from a 5 inch to 12 inch and I’m looking for what all settings I need to change with Alfa. Most everything has been from going from 8.4 to 12 but almost nothing about 5 to 12. It looks like for sure I need to change ICS and DCSD but I’ve seen different things for the HVAC. Will I need too change something for dual climate zone or anything else? Thanks in advanced.

    Junsun Android Head Unit

    By TexAg67

    I just installed this Junsun head unit in my 2018 Ram 2500 to replace the basic and tiny Uconnect head unit. So far, I like it. It is the 4G/64G version, which I highly recommend—absolutely no lag. The customer support is top-notch as well. You can tell they are foreign. Their command of the English language is not very good, but they communicate well enough to get the point across. They have helped me set up various items, like the CANBUS connection, that aren't included in the minimal... Read more

I have a seperate guy to program computers and will program them once the truck is wired but he's just a programmer. The 6.4 motor and 8hp70 was complete... Read more

    Summit Trail Climbers for a 1500

    By JCHunter62

    Has anyone tried these on a 1500 Hemi? I had BF Goodrich AT KO2s in this size and its time for a replacement. The new KO3s are $330, vs about $220 when I last got them. I found these at Walmart and they seem a decent alternative for the price? Anyone have experience with them?

    Neverending DPF issues - Trade in for Cummins or Hemi?

    By DeltaRingo

    Hello everyone - I need your opinions! I own a 2020 RAM 3500 Longhorn Cummins 6.7 HO with 26,000 miles, that has had chronic DPF issues since purchase. Aside from that, I really do love this truck. It's has DPF issues every 3-5,000 miles. They've replaced the whole entire emission system twice, the DPF a handful of times and the sensor 7 times. Just a few days after pulling a load down the freeway for a couple hundred miles and my DPF guage reading zero, I had gained about an eight on... Read more

    Lane Sense Not Working After Windshield Replacement

    By DesertDrifter

    2023 Ram 3500, had to have windshield replaced after a huge crack developed. Safelite was who my insurance company recommended. Windshield replaced with an OEM replacement and front camera re-calibrated. Lane Sense now doesn't work. Mostly shows the white telltale icon indicating it's not seeing the center line and fog line. At times the telltale will start flashing yellow when on top of one of the lane markers, but NO steering wheel torque for correction. Safelite has now attempted to... Read more
