    Build Sheet Link

    As Bigdodge said it works. If you can get your window sticker you should be able to get the build sheet. Remember to use UPPERCASE LETTERS and 0 is the number ZERO

    Camping, tent, travel trailer, HAMMOCK

    We have general first aid kits in all the vehicles. And I have one on the GHB. The huge box in the middle of the night time bed shot is her trauma kit. She can do everything but subscribe us pain killers and a note for work/school...🤣

    Camping, tent, travel trailer, HAMMOCK

    Forest camping in Tuscarora to get us closer to Carlisle All Trucks Nationals. I know most like to RV, which we do too. But man is the Crew Cab Long Bed so great for family tent camping trips. And we look so unassuming, like we are just construction guys getting home. No one ever knows what we...

    Should you engage 4WD periodically?

    It is a good idea to take your truck places 4wd can be used and enjoyed. They enjoy being used as intended! And like to get away from society from time to time!

    Who here has 1700+lbs of payload on their 1500?

    3.21is the lower GCWR. 2wd has. 6900 GVWR and 4x4 has the 7100 GVWR. And for those that love to point out stuff that got misinterpreted or what not. The diesel gets 7200 some years...😎

    Anyone go 1500 to 2500?

    The Quad Cab only gets the 6'4" bed. The Crew Cab has the option of the two.

    Compatible Year Replacement Door For 2019 Tradesman Classic

    The classic is the same from 2009 til present. The 2019 and Newer 5th gens are a completely different truck. So, yes a 2022 will fit...but it has to be from a classic. A 2022 with the new body style will not!

    Unable to Engage 4wd Low

    When you tried it in park and drive the computer probably said...oh no, shut him down. To go into 4 low you should be in neutral coasting under 5 mph. You can also just be in neutral, but a slight roll is best. You could try unhooking your battery. It may then let you try. Transmission...

    So you want to tow a camper! Discussion thread.

    I agree with absolutely everything except the tongue weight number. The manufacture claims 850 at the dry weight. Campers are typically 13 to 15%. They say dry it is at almost 14%. Add in the propane and battery(ies) It is going to be real close to 15% . almost everyone loads their camper to...

    Tune to pull a camper

    You don't need a tune. The trailer weight is within the realm of a Cummins. The pin weight is no issue, even though you will find that your capacity is much less. The issue is the 2500 series has coils and their position on the axle are not great for high center of gravity loads...like Truck...

    So you want to tow a camper! Discussion thread.

    7100-1190 is a base weight of 5910. A gas truck has a 60/40 split empty. Front axle should be 3546~ and rear 2364~ With the 17000 GVWR you have 11090 available for passengers, cargo, and trailer. But you are payload limited on how big a trailer you can pull. Let me know if this makes sense...

    Tune to pull a camper

    Is this on your door jamb or some chart. I have a 2022 Crew Long bed with the Hemi. It's a Tradesman. I only have 3023 pounds of payload. There is no way a Laramie has more, especially with the 900ish pound hit the Cummins provides. Look at your door jamb...I could be wrong...but I bet your...

    So you want to tow a camper! Discussion thread.

    1190 on the payload sticker. 425 passengers 45 pounds for the WDH (wow that is light...I think my ball mount on my truck weighs 45 lbs) So as you mentioned your truck has a GVWR of 7100 lbs axles at 3900 and 4100. Maximum tongue weight of 1275 is mute. Need the GVWR of your camper if you know...
