    Blackstone oil analysis, high iron and copper only have 22k miles on engine

    I will post over at the bobistheoil guy forum. I'm sorta concerned about the test not being just a bad test because all the other numbers were good.. Just one item was very clear its raising a flag.

    Blackstone oil analysis, high iron and copper only have 22k miles on engine

    Finally got around to sending off one of my samples for a report. I've been consistent with changing the oil at 5k intervals. Running penzoil platinum or penzoil ultra platinum depending on what i could get at the time. Always ran a stock mopar filter. Iron and copper are higher than any...

    AGM or Lead Acid Battery

    Does anybody know if we need to update the ibs system charging to recognize a higher capacity agm is installed instead of the lead acid. Past vehicles i've owned required the ibs to be reset to recognize for a new battery or different capacity to charge it properly. The "intelligent" systems...

    Weight Distribution Hitch Poll

    I run the propride hitch after wasting money and time on other hitches. Just about everything about this hitch is worth the money. Safety for my family being no. 1. Once you figure out the nuances of the system it is by far easier to use than any of the friction bar or chain based sway...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    I finally installed my 33 gallon tank used the recommendations by jsandgren10 earlier in this thread using steel bar and the earlier bracket retrofit kit. It actually took me longer to fabricate the bracket and drill the frame than it did to drop and reinstall the tank. Was really easy...

    Backup camera not working

    Well this happened to me after 6k miles. It worked when i parked at the grocery store. Came out of the store and then it wasn't working. Tried the two reset methods. The only one that worked for me was to hold the tune & volume buttons down for 30 seconds while truck was in "on" mode, then...

    Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    I started at my tires max psi of 65 psi. for me it was a matter of letting air out long enough for the sensors to register something was happening, not so much the actual pressure.

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    For those that have done this. is there a trick to getting the fuel fill inlet off? I've crawled under and walked thru of all the steps before i start. I could easily undo all of the fuel lines clips and vent lines and put them back on. Everything is quick and easy except the fuel fill...

    Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    I've finally got around to getting my trailer out of storage and getting the tpms sensors installed to finish the install. Got it all up and running. But be warned the instructions in the manual to pair the sensors are ineffective and did not work for me. The instructions said let 5psi out...
