Cleaning off the workbench and freeing up some space. I am selling two complete identity packages from old donor trucks whose bodies and frames completely rusted away to nothing a decade ago. (Fun fact: I actually bought these exact items from another member on this forum about 8 to 12 years ago and just never used them!). Each set includes the Original Paper Title , the Matching Glove Box Data Plate/Door , and a Certified Marti Report proving the original factory build... Read more

IF THIS ISN'T THE RIGHT SECTION TO POST SOMETHING LIKE THIS ADMINS PLEASE JUST LET ME KNOW. I have a 2026 RAM 1500 limited with the power lift tailgate... standard unit, not multifunction. I'm wondering/hoping someone with a split tailgate may want to swap for standard unit as I know some people don't like the Multifunction gate. I'm located in Massachusetts but can easily travel anywhere in New England and possibly further.

Anyone else notice that time seems to have sped up? Sounds crazy of course. It's not the time thing that comes with old age either. Days and even months have been passing at a ridiculous rate, far outside the slippage of gears ... way way outside. A number of times I have seen persons talk about this, including twice by a guy in a position of professional respect. He stated that we now have the technology to manipulate both time and space. I know, I know You Tube is fantasy land, I agree... Read more

As some of you may know, I was dealing with gear breakage issues in both of my transmissions and have since been climbing out of the hole with good parts and some can do attitude. I have been an advocate of DIY to rebuild/upgrade our transmissions and have been paying attention to several threads and forums on other people having issues with their transmissions. Rather than building a survey for a small group of us, I'm creating a thread based on gtman's advice to see if we can share some... The Transmission Rebuild Thread

For several days, I have been getting a water and fuel indicator on the dash of my 2020 eco-diesel. It just flashes on for 124 seconds when I first start the truck. I had put a new fuel filter in about a week ago, so I got underneath the truck and turned the water spigot on the fuel filter and something came out that smelled like Diesel. Now I am running it, and I went to the local parts store and bought hot shot diesel additive to hopefully take whatever Water is there, out of the Diesel... Read more
