One benefit of a truck is that I don’t need to jack it up to change oil. However, removing the oil filter without making a huge mess is another story.

Beautiful truck. Welcome to the forum

Nice write up. I left my short skid plate on as I do not do much off road. With the help of a friend, we came up with a mount you can weld in to attach the third tank strap to. He has sold quite a few to other members if you are interested.

Crazy that the market has swung so far. Wasn’t long ago 10-12k off sticker was normal. Hang in there. The right truck and price will come along.

Great looking truck

That appears to be complete but I couldn’t be for sure.

Mine does to. I believe part of it is the parking brake and some type of shut down check

Welcome to the forum.

The size of the rim shouldn't matter. The overall OD of the rim and tire as well as the rim offset will determine if you have any clearance issues. Most aftermarket rims will have more negative offset and stick out a little further.

On page 6, Dixit details the parts he used. On page 7, he details the procedure with some great pictures. I used those as reference when I changed my 23 gallon tank out. Also on page 7 is my detailed parts list and procedure with a couple pictures as well. That should pretty much tell you...

Looks great.

That’s sucks. Especially since you just got it. Hope you get it fixed quickly and enjoy the truck.

This truck ia a new gen eco diesel. Unfortunately without a proper tear down, there is no real way to discern the root cause. The dealer has stated that Chrysler will not rebuild it, but will replace it with an entire new motor.

Not all Shell Rotella 5W40 meets there specification. You must confirm that the proper spec is listed. It’s crazy but now each manufacturer has particular specs. You can’t just grab any matching weight.

Considering the current trucks interior looks like it was built in the 90’s it’s a big improvement. The light on the steering wheel and the wood grain are kind of ridiculous though

I have a major update with very unexpected news. The dealer reached out to there district service rep who hasn’t returned calls for two weeks and pleaded his case by confirming how immaculate the truck was and that he had oil receipts. She changed the status to approved. He was literally in a...

I’ve had lots of rams through the years and they’ve all been great trucks. This may be an isolated incident, but with the history of the eco diesel, I’m not sure. If Ram is really serious about taking over as king of the trucks they will have to get serious about good service, and customer...

No pending litigation at this point. He’s mad as couple phone calls but hasn’t started any process.

They shows shavings in the pan. I’m not sure you can make any intelligent failure analysis without opening the engine up and measuring tolerances etc. Hard to believe but this is what they do I guess

I have heard of similar issues with other manufacturers as well.
