    High mileage 2019 advice

    Did you also replace transfer case fluid and front diff fluid and transmission fluid? Also do the coolant and brake fluid while you are at it. I always do all the fluids when I buy a used vehicle. I consider that cheap insurance and it helps me be more familiar with the vehicle

    Green high performance air filter

    I have 1+mpg improvement since i swapped to k&n high flow drop in filter. It is expected to get an mpg improvement when switching to a higher flow air filter because it helps reduce pumping losses on the intake side, thus increasing mpg.

    Seeking directions / Advice on changing tire size from factory tires...

    Going from your original tires 32" to 33" tires without any recalibration means your speedo will be off and reading lower by only 3.4%. If you did oil change every 5000 miles you would be off by 170 miles. Not enough to affect maintenance schedule When at 65mph on speedo your true speed would be...

    Transfer Case Oil - is there an equivalent to Shell Spirax S2 ATF A389

    Even at $60/quart it is worth it. My transfer case was underfilled from factory by 1/2 quart. It was rough switching to 4wd hi. Very rough switching to 4wd lo. And the light would blink 5-6 times before switching. Now it's very smooth switching to any setting and fast. The light blinks twice at...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Had my AC system checked. I feel like it could be colder than it is. Mechanic ran it in max AC and used thermometer in left vent. It came out at 50deg. Ambient temp was 70deg. Told me everything was fine. He refused to do a pressure check claiming that there is no way it's low. I didn't believe...

    275.55.20 vs 275.60.20

    I have had mine installed for about a month now and very pleased with going 275/60/20. I drove for about a week before i updated the tire size with tazerDT. I did not really notice a difference before updating the size and after. I mostly did it because i wanted the Adaptive Cruise Control to be...

    Normal voltage?

    What happens exactly to your truck if voltage drops below 12.6? Does it stall? Do you get warnings/errors on dash? My truck battery voltage behaves pretty much the same as yours but i have absolutely no issues with the truck. If I run AC and other electrical things on a long highway trip the...
