What did you do to your Ram today???

Today was the transfer case fluid and brake fluid change

By chance do you have the BW48-11? I'm going to plan for September to do my diffs and t-case ut just curious on the fluid used for the t-case. I'll probably get the Mopar specific Mobil LT and use Amsoil for the difs. And after seeing some of these posts on the fluid for brake flushes in like 4 short years I'll probably do that as well. Stuff looks grimey. How was yours?

Got it from Bulletpoint. They have two styles. This one is good for everything but offroad.

Why would you say that it’s not good for off-road?
I’ve used Bulletpoint mounts on my Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator with no issues what so ever. It even held my tablet without a hiccup.

I have the base audio, wanted to try something cheap for better sound. So installed the kenwood 6x9 +3.5 component set and JBL 3 ways in rear 2.3ohm. Found a Infinity dsp amp on ebay, factory refurbished for $79. At work last night, I used a anc ch01 harness, connected the wires from radio into the Infinity dsp amp and the speaker wires out to speakers. Used the yellow power wire and ground on the anc ch01 harness. The Infinity amp is 15amp, the anc in truck is 25amp so should be fine. Plugged into truck and worked, now tuning the system, is done on laptop through USB. In future I can use the infinity amp as a dsp for my entire system and it becomes a line driver, the speaker level inputs did not require resistors. It's louder now than my old 13 Ram with alpine system and the alpine system i replaced all doors and dash with Infinity speakers. If I add a subwoofer I would just need to run power and ground and connect to the rca's on the dsp amp or if i don't want to use the 35 watts per channel from the amp, can add amps and use the dsp from the infinity. Total invested right now, Kenwood 6x9+3.5 components, $200, JBL 3 way back doors $85, anc ch01 $15, infinity dsp 4425 $79 ebay, $30 for some sheets of butyl sound deadening and $20 for some self stick closed cell foam to keep door rattle down. Less than $450. Amp seems good enough for me, getting old and need to keep my hearing. Was literally plug and play, all wiring was done inside and just went out and plugged the 2 connectors in from anc in and anc out

So far this morning I replaced the front axle lock actuator and front diff fluid. First drive and was still getting service 4wd light trying to engage 4wd and it would never make the switch took actuator back off and verified the forks were in the collar. They appeared to be out it back in with bolts hand right and tried again, just sitting in driveway. It made the shift to 4wd without issue. Torqued bolts down, topped off the fluid again. Sitting in driveway again, out truck in driveway and triwd to engage 4wd. Light just flashed and never made the changed. Pulled out of driveway and tried again while moving and it shifted fine. Guess there was just enough tension sitting still, with it in drive, to not make the shift. But it appears to be working properly now. Will see if I keep getting service 4wd light over the next few days if driving. On the factory actuator, it must have gotten hit at some point when off roading. This spot on the actuator is loose and a few months ago I actually had to use my channel locks to squeeze it back together as there was 1/8" gap where it looked like one of rhe rivits had started to pop out.
