    rear wheel liners

    IS this for the kingpin or what? Because I am unaware of anything inside the fenderwell on my 1500. If it's something on the HD pickups, try asking over at Homepage - HD Rams

    21 cummins megacab 2500 - brake goes to floor

    I agree with Vincentw56. I'm pretty sure you have a hydroboost for your brakes, not vacuum like a gas engine has. They will feel different. Ask over at hdrams.

    Payload rating and trying to decide on the right truck

    Spend a little more time in the towing forum and you'll find quite a lot of threads wherein those with higher-level trims and lots of options discover that by the time they load the family into the cab, all the payload is used up, leaving nothing for the luggage or trailer. When RAM calls a 1500...

    Sun Visor broken

    There are a bunch of videos on youtube but there's also this. I wish I'd seen it before I replaced my visor. https://www.amazon.com/ANODZU-Sun-Visor-Repair-Kit/dp/B0CCL5DXF9?th=1

    3.0L S/O vs 5.7 Hemi Dyno Video

    I don't dispute the readings, but I remain wary The true test will be in a couple years when we see how they hold up. You can generate huge numbers in a race car engine, but how long do they last? I'm old enough to remember the 2.2 Turbos Chrysler had in the 1980s. They were great until they...

    Air ride and alignment

    So, how do you ensure the wheel is dead center without sticking your head in and looking? And I'm not tall enough to reach in through the open window and push the start button, especially not teetering on the edge of the alignment rack.

    Air ride and alignment

    Not entirely true. The engine should be running and the steering wheel centered and locked in place for the final toe setting. You don't want it trying to raise and lower if the mechanic opens the door or closes it. That's why the air suspension has "Alignment Mode." Straight out of my manual

    302 and 300 Codes

    You didn't happen to buy any discount no-name gasoline lately, did you? The one time I had a misfire code on a car of mine, I felt it, then it cleared up. The code cleared itself a few days later and 15 years later it never has returned. I blame cheap gas.

    CANBUS question on voltage

    A multimeter doesn't react fast enough to read the signals on a CAN bus. You'd need an oscilloscope. Look for any dealer add-ons that may have tapped into the CAN wiring. If anything starts to glitch, it can short the bus so nothing can communicate, which will set a whole slew of communication...

    Plug located above rear license plate

    I went out and looked at my 2019. I don't have anything there at all. No hole, no plug. If they moved the spare crank, this is it

    Swap out steel wheel/temp spare for full size normal wheel and tire?

    I bought a matching 18" aluminum wheel. It's true the cable end doesn't sit as nice as it does in the steel temporary wheel, but it will go through and you can still crank the wheel up good and tight.

    Truck Dies Right After Jumpstart

    Most likely that stalling will go away if you can keep it running a little longer. Modern vehicles have preprogrammed idle settings that slowly adjust to allow for altitude and how dirty the throttle body gets. You just erased that soft memory with the dead battery, so now it has to relearn...

    Tell me about what kind of insurance coverage I can get away with

    You need enough liability insurance to keep your house and your brokerage account if you should be found at fault. And I wouldn't go without Uninsured Motorist coverage. Just because you can afford to replace it, doesn't mean you want to in the event some lowlife with no insurance decides to...
