The best place to find out in at a dealership, but I’ve used the Ram configurator many times. I can’t explain why it won’t let you do what you want on a custom build, but I tried to build a Laramie in the bright red with Ramboxes. When I pick the Rambox option, it makes me change the color to...

That doesn’t appear to be bubbling under the paint so it isn’t the same issue as that TSB refers to. We had a hood replaced on our ‘18 JGC Summit because of the under the paint corrosion on the aluminum hood.

Glad your trip went well. Yea, every year it seems there is more electric gizmos to give us headaches. On my ‘22, I have the split tail gate plus the Rambox lids’ and it relies on an electric switch to open. I haven’t had any issues with that, but I miss just having mechanical linkage. In your...

Thread is like almost 6 years old. Never any answers posted.

Good video, too bad they can’t tell you when you can get it replaced if/when it fails.

The way these vehicles are integrated with electronics ( PCM, TCM, BCM, etc ) it isn’t like years past. Those days past I wouldn’t hesitate to buy the hardware and switch it over. Just I’m not sure if you would switch hardware necessary if you could then get it “communicate” with the modules...

This was an email I received. I don’t intend on getting it. Just throwing it out there.

I had Amp boards on my ‘18 2500. I had thought about getting a switch like shown, but then found out that you must have the correct controller too. I did have to replace my controller unit when I was having the boards not retracting correctly. Replacing that fixed it. Then I called Amp about...

Just wondering if there is any way to eliminate the MGU and just go back to just having an alternator? I’m certainly not tech savvy enough to do it, but maybe there are some folks that are??? Just like the air ride system which some have replaced with a standard spring suspension, some things...

Quick story. 18 years ago I bought a new truck. Problem even before I picked it up. Wasn’t told to me as I found out later at another dealership that began trying to fix the pickup. Turned out the engine had a bad cylinder. Lemon Law contacted. Took about 9 months, in fact the next day I was...

I have a ‘22 Longhorn Limited with the Off-Road Group. I’ve had air ride before on previous Rams. The Off Road Group gives me 4 levels instead of 5 that my other non Off Road Group trucks had. This truck I have now is 1” higher when it is in the “normal” mode. To get this height on my previous...

Just thinking out loud. Is it possible to just replace the modem part? Maybe that’s just being flaky. Research this maybe on YouTube or punch it into the search bar to access the internet. You might be able to find a replacement part off of eBay. Dealer won’t help you, no one tries to fix...

Says he has had the truck for 5 years. “In the shop too many times to remember” Sorry for your troubles, but I would have purchased an extended warranty or that truck would have been gone long ago.

If you want to have a factory warranty that’s fine. I had an extended warranty when I had a 2018 Ram 2500 Limited with the Cummins. I originally purchased an extended warranty 9 months after I purchased it new and was at almost 36,000 miles. I added 5 years + 100,000 miles Max Care. About 2...

1791, totally agree. I had a choice when I ordered my 2022. I made the wrong choice. Worst mileage than my previous 1500s and now I have that eTorque crap. Shame on me!

Ya know that stuff is gonna break and while it’s never convenient when it happens, it just really sucks that the parts to replace/repair are “no eta-back order” MGU, steering rack, ABS modules, the list seems to keep growing. I hope Tim K can get this parts thing corrected so we can expect a...

Yup, great information here. Depending on how bad the bearing gets, it may have your truck out of commission. And since it sounds like it can take many months to get the MGU replaced under warranty, this is a great fix to “keep on trucking” UpNorth Engineer, had you already had this at the...

Excellent write up. Hope I never need the information, but as the eTorque MGU gets older this is gonna be more common to repair a bearing that goes bad. Where did you get the bearing part number? Parts book or off of the bearing?

Well, that is great news. It would be a big help to the forum if you’d write up a “how to, how I did this” so, I know there are many of us, that would just rebuild it. Too bad dealerships just don’t do it for us. Plus, list the bearing source/part number and if any special tools were needed...

Hope I don’t jinx myself, but I don’t have to slam my tailgate. Yes I close it firmly, but not having to slam it. It’s been one of my favorite things on my truck.
