    What did you do to your Ram today???

    You can tell when it's stopped working when the water during a wash stops beading/sheeting the way that it was prior. Nothing major but did an oil change at 64k. I'm averaging about 6500 miles between oil changes. Attempted to do my transmission service with the blauparts kit. Got under the...

    When to do transmission service ?

    Just had mine completed at 65k miles with the blauparts kit. Was going to do it myself but the fill plug gave me fits. Found a transmission shop with great reviews near me who charged $150 for labor. Immediately scheduled an appointment and took my truck down off my stands lol.

    Eibach shocks/level - WOW

    Yea I get what you're saying but I'm also telling you I got 2.75" of lift with a 1" spring and clip 3 on my 4x4 truck.

    Eibach shocks/level - WOW

    Interesting that they changed from this graphic apparently. With brand new ORG springs and 3rd clip I got 2.75" of lift on my truck at time of installation.

    Eibach shocks/level - WOW

    Yep, I believe when I was deciding everything that I went for a total of 2.8". somewhere along the way I'd read that more than 3" of lift would cause issues unless remedied by additional suspension equipment. Check out this post and the one below it. Post in thread 'Eibach E60-27-011-03-10 -...

    My truck has the ORG and I have my clip set at 1.8". You'll be fine.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Ordered the Blauparts ZF8 service kit. Gonna change it out during my Thanksgiving vacation. Transmission service always makes me nervous for some reason but I got it.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Gotcha, I wasn't making the connection about the new one being easier to replace because it's not had time to get "set" in.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I'm confused - you have upgraded cv axles you want to put on but you're having the dealer replace the OEM one? You just want a spare OEM or something?

    Purchase for High Miles '19-'22 Longhorn/Limited

    Yea, I'd agree that 80k is on the low side for what I'd consider high mileage. Depends on the year too however. Regardless, I've got a 2020 hemi with the etorque sitting at right around 63,000 miles. Truck has been near flawless save for the exhaust manifolds. As mentioned previously some...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    That's what I've done on other vehicles. This video suggests taking it to 2nd gear and I feel like the official ZF recommendation is the same. Idk that it would matter really but it's one small thing I'm willing to handle.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I plan on following this. The hardest part will be moving the exhaust system to get the oil pan down and figure out a way to be able to shift gears without a lift. Was thinking maybe taking the tires off while the rear is on jack stands would suffice. I'd leave my front supported by ramps. Could...

    Rebel Suspension on a Big Horn

    Your post is giving me ptsd from when Ram shipped several hundred BTS trucks with the wrong springs lol. I also recommend eibach. When I got my warranty work done to put the proper springs on I got the dealer to install my eibachs for free. They've been great for 40k miles.

    Battery Tender for E-torque

    It's jscan for iPhones. Alfaodb is the equivalent for android devices. I use an OBDLink mx+ that I've had for several years. Great device. I'd say you may have a bad 12v tbh. Unfortunately I want to say I've read reports of the AGMs testing "good" but not being legitimate. I'll have to test...

    Battery Tender for E-torque

    @drect Here's some more data points from another drive. I enjoyed watching the amperage change during the regenerative braking. You can see -227 amps was the highest charge the battery received. 255 amps was when I intentionally activated the stop/start system in my driveway (typically always...

    Battery Tender for E-torque

    @jimothy This was after my truck had sat for a couple days. Then a quick 12-15 min drive.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Gotta say you stuck it out longer than I would've lol. You been complaining for almost 3 yrs! That's crazy. Should've cut your losses much sooner.

    Battery Tender for E-torque

    I've never done it but I've got all the stuff so I'll try to remember to test it in the next few days.
