    Exhaust Manifold Leak

    My passenger side has cracked at 13K miles. I also have a different, loud banging noise when placed into gear while engine is cold that dealer can't figure out (flex plate maybe?). At 13K miles.... I'm done with FCA. I can't play the "fix manifold leak" game multiple times over the life of...

    Jerk and clacking sound from transmission (???) when cold.

    Mine does this too! When in gear (D or R) it gets really loud. Did you ever find out the cause? Thanks!

    Air Lift 5000 Airbags on a Rebel

    I had the Airlift 1000's in my Excursion when I towed a 35 foot RV. They made a huge difference and when aired down to minimum psi, I couldn't tell they were back there. I liked them. Just my thoughts on the subject. Good luck and I hope you get this sorted out soon.

    Rebel front license plate bracket ideas

    I just fabbed up a quick-mount out of flat aluminum bar stock I had laying around. I think it worked out pretty well. Keeps that plate up out of the way.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    We enjoyed our time there. I hope the movement is successful to get High Springs out of Alachua county and their high property taxes.

    looking to buy a winch 10k

    I don't know what the price difference is, but back in the day myself and most of my off road club ran Ramsey winches. Never had a problem with them on any of our vehicles... and we actually used them pretty hard at times. I'm out of that game for the most part now so I don't know how the...

    Manifold, or lifters?

    Same. First ever... also last. I lived with the Chevy 5.3 piston slap through several Chevys....but at least I knew what it was, what caused it and knew it wasn’t going to eat itself alive. I ran all three of them for 150k miles each without a problem. So disappointed in FCA.

    Custom Shop

    Companies will, indeed sometimes ship a kit with missing or wrong parts... it happens. However, what is inexcusable is a shop that the customer has to go around chasing after to get information. Unresponsive shops, construction companies, car dealerships, etc. always receive a thrashing from...

    Rear Tow Hook Brackets in Production What Next???

    Once you start making a front winch bumper that allows access to the top of the winch and has a high approach angle I will be looking real hard at it! I absolutely can't stand the monster bumpers that have a huge, fat lip hanging down in the front made for smacking deer on the highway, not for...

    "Our center specializes in modern methods of jaw implantation in the absence of teeth. We use low-traumatic techniques without bone augmentation: All-on-4, All-on-6, zygomatic implantation." WTH?

    Do I Always Have to Endure Hot Air out of the Vents?

    Same thing here. It's aggravating as can be. Stupid design... stupid engineers.
