    Android Auto Wireless Disconnects

    I experienced this alot with my android phone. Android auto and Uconnect suck. At times it loses wireless connection, when the phone's charging and plugged in android auto works fine, but still rarely disconnects. But if I unplug the charger it will disconnect android auto 50% of the time for a...

    Fox 2.0 shocks leaking. Rebuild or replace?

    He's an authorized fox dealer/rebuilder, but not a mechanic, nor mechanic shop from what I gathered. Decided to go with either the same 2.0 ifp's as it has now. Unless I can find the 2.0 performance coilovers @CHeYeNNe71 recommended. Then send in the old to get rebuilt and have them on standby.

    Fox 2.0 shocks leaking. Rebuild or replace?

    Ah the joys of living in Canada, everything is difficult to find and ridiculously expensive. Lol I appreciate all the help, I like the 2.0 coilovers, seem like a great option.

    Fox 2.0 shocks leaking. Rebuild or replace?

    Yea, I'm more of a plush ride guy. Want a softer/smoother ride but also want a little extra height but don't want to use a spacer. Maybe just some 2.0s and orp springs in the front.

    Brown Sludge on Coolant Dipstick?

    There Was no reason they thought leak stop was added aside from looking at the dipstick and the service advisor called a mechanic to the front who looked at it and said, huh weird...might be leak stop residue. no in-depth analysis. Just 30 second look. As for top offs of coolant, nope. every...

    Brown Sludge on Coolant Dipstick?

    Had this exact same issue. Friend of mine kept telling me he smelt antifreeze when he was in my truck the last few weeks, I can't smell sweet sh!t apparently, because a second guy told me the same thing. I check the reservoir, it was bone dry and this exact slug on the dipstick. 22 ram, 88000km...

    Fox 2.0 shocks leaking. Rebuild or replace?

    Well, the shop I found only does rebuilding. They don't do removal or installation. Lol Having a back up set incase this happens again seems like the best move. Looking like I'm going to grab a second set of either the same 2.0 ifp's ($500 for the pair)or Bilstein 5100s (460 cad for the pair)...

    Fox 2.0 shocks leaking. Rebuild or replace?

    The dealer does this or independent shop? Edit, found an independent shop an hour from where I am that can do it for 160$ per side. Plus removal and reinstallation. Seems like a fair deal.

    Fox 2.0 shocks leaking. Rebuild or replace?

    I was looking into Bilstein 6112s. Don't know much about suspension, are those adjustable beyond the 2" currently installed? Only issue with rebuild is the truck is off the road for who knows how long.

    Fox 2.0 shocks leaking. Rebuild or replace?

    I have the Mopar 2" lift with the fox 2.0 shocks. Dealer did a peace of mind inspection and says the front shocks are leaking. Naturally my truck is out of the bumper to bumper warranty. Should I replace them with new Fox shocks or go with a Bilstein? I wouldn't mind squeezing out an extra...

    Clunk no-more

    I replaced my oem (lasted 80000km)front sway bar bushings back in November with the energy performance ones I found on this site. Sounds like the clunk is coming back. So I think I'll be doing them again. About 7000 km before the clunk returned
