    Winter fun

    1. Good on that. Santa sent the wife unit home for the holidays. 2. Going back to Finland next July-august for a vacation. 3. Would be cool to add a 270 degree umbrella to my RTT rack. 4. Exited, absolutely. Going down to Venice FL. tomorrow to escape this winter stuff, beach and margaritas on...

    Oil Pan Replacement...DIY?

    Is this not true for our gen 5 rams also. He is working on a gen 3 if I understood it correctly. At 27:56 he talks about gen 3?

    Cylinder 2 Misfire P0302 - gas tank open?

    My money would be on the injector cleaner, the filler door has nothing to do with the sealing of the EVAP system.

    Oil Pan Replacement...DIY?

    IIRC the front axle needs to be dropped to gain clearance for the pan to come out. There is that 6 hours labor.

    Body control module issues

    2021. How old is the battery? If original, I would start by replacing it before going after a BCM and the radiator. YMMW.

    Easiest way to get a 12 volt outlet in the back seat?

    Installed cigarette lighter outlet and USB outlet into the little cubby hole. Ran fused 12 volts from the battery, thru firewall and under/next to the center console.

    Rear Brake Drum Issue

    Oh, you are up there, the land of road salt. Been to Mass, New Hampshire multiple times to visit the kids grandparents in Fitchburg MA for holidays. The winters and road treatments are so much like back in Finland, everything just rusts.

    Is the 110 W inverter pure or modified sine wave?

    Sure, but would it not be more efficient and faster to charge by using the "alternator charger" from ecoflo. I am educating myself about ecoflow while typing this response, might have to look into getting one for powering up my Bougerv fridge. edit: pretty informational video that I just watched.

    Rear Brake Drum Issue

    This should work on the rears also. I used a propane torch to get the front rotors off. They were not budging with a hammer or a pry-bar. Pointed at the rotor, flame heating it up, about 5 minutes later the rotor just popped off. What is holding the rotor to the hub, is rust buildup at the...

    Some Rebels getting steel hoods?

    Are we maybe running short of aluminum? What advantage would a steel hood have, short of being able to use a magnetic antenna mount on it.

    Is the 110 W inverter pure or modified sine wave?

    Heater core passenger side floor mats covered fogged up windows with sticky smelly and oily coolant then started overheat, so I shut it down and now l
