  8.8 rear end question

  By oneye85

  So I am trying to get all my ducks in a row for an engine swap and most likely a rear end swap as well. So the question is I see everyone using the explorer rear ends for the 8.8 swap and it makes sense but is there a reason for not using a mustang rear end besides more cutting of brackets. Is the offset wrong/not wide enough/ some other issue I’m not thinking of. I do not have an issue with getting one but I have access to a nice mustang unit and was wondering. Thank you.

  Winter Tire Efficiency and Noise

  By WhoDey

  I'm considering a couple of options for 20/21” winter tires on my Gravity Touring: Lucid-recommended Hankook icept evo3 X winter tires Michelin CrossClimate2 3PMSF all-weather tires Both should meet my winter traction needs. I'd like to hear feedback from anyone who's run either of them on a Gravity: How bad was the efficiency hit vs. the OEM tires? How were the noise levels? Any other significant pros or cons? Thanks!

  Modern Ram issue.

  By chargervert

  I have a 2019 Ram 3500 4x4. The last couple of times it has rained,when I open the hood about a gallon of water comes out of the back corners of the hood. Its like water is getting in between the inner structure and outer skin of the hood and sitting in there unless I open the hood after every rain event and let the water drain out. I figure it is getting in around the emblem bezels on the rear sides of the hood. Anyone else having this issue on their modern Ram trucks. I figure it won't be... Read more

  Five years of blood, sweat and tears

  By gtman

  Back in October 2019, I came up with an idea. Everybody in the community was getting concerned with a recent spate of tuned cars blowing engines. We had guys blathering "Don't be an idiot, all tuned cars will fail". Frankly, even though I was reliably tuned for a year and a half at that point, I was getting a little worried too.That's when my Tuned CivicX Experience & Reliability thread was born...

  Rough idle/stalling

  By hemismith

  I have a 2025 Hurricane SO with 22k miles. For the past month or so it's been having an occasional rough idle, where it will drop a couple hundred rpm for a second. Occasionally it will drop several hundred, and a few times it's even stalled. I've read on other sources that it's likely due to a non-stock air filter -- when I had my 20k service, there were no Mopar air filters in stock so they used a Napa. But that was months ago and I just started having this issue when they did a PCM... Read more

  2016 RAM 2500 5.7 Transmission Problem

  By ECantu

  Hi! I just got a transmission problem in my 2016 Ram 2500 5.7. I was driving on the freeway and after a curve suddenly lost all power, it was like if the transmission was in neutral, no sounds, no leaks, no burning smell or anything, it just went dead. I pulled over and it didn't let me put it in park, screen showed a message "speed too high to move to parking" or something like that. After a few minutes the shifter let me put it in parking and I was able to shut down the engine, even when... Read more

  I am wanting to meet some Honda/Jdm enthusiasts like me who can talk about cars (mostly civics) and build plans, mods, etc. It would be nice if you want to kick it and help each other give advice on builds and to go to meets after covid.

  mystery fitting/connector on 3.6L

  By Cedar Plank

  2021 Classic Express with 3.6L. Newer vehicle to me and just recently removed the air intake cowling. Discovered a hosed fitting that is not connected to anything. See it in the center of the attached photo. Any ideas what it is and if it should be connected anywhere? Is that a plug on the end of the hose? Couldn't see anywhere that it should be connected to.
