    Tried Installing a Diablosport tuner and unlocked ECU...Everything is wrong now lol

    Got a diablosport trinity tuner and unlocked ecu off facebook (i know). When I installed it and tried to start the truck it cranked and started and shut off after about 5 seconds. All kinds of warnings, radio asking for unlock code, ect ect. Tried to write a canned tune to it, but it kept...

    Suggestions on lift kit to replace my spacers

    So I am currently running a 2.5" spacer up front and 1.5" in back (not installed in the photo). Also running TRX 35s. But I got 160k so the shocks are worn out and running rough. I don't really off road, but if I do, it's all low speed. I am really looking for something centered around ride...

    Transmission service

    Im wondering with the BG6600, if they did a flush. I would bet they did. Could have loosened up some material and filled up your valve body with crap and hence the ****ty shifting. They should have used the Mopar fluid, or ZF fluid, not some generic "compatible" fluid that is supposedly...

    Is there some trick or magic to replace the rear axle bearings?

    They used Precision Wheel Bearings from the box store. I had to use the same bearing they used to get back on the road. We will see if it lasts...if not i'll get some oem. Only thing I can think is either a bad batch of bearings, or since they rebuilt the entire rear axle, they drained all...

    Is there some trick or magic to replace the rear axle bearings?

    21 1500 Rebel, 3.92 e-locker...A few months ago my pinion bearing started going out and making noise. Took it to a highly recommended off road shop to get the rear-end rebuilt. I told them since they were that deep in there to go ahead and replace the axle bearings and seals while they were at...
