    Temp change issues

    It seems as if whatever physical part that controls the changing of my climate control doesn’t work. I often have to go all the way to the extreme HI (heat) or LOW (cold) in order to get the temperature coming out of the vents to change. For example; it was 60ish out tonight and my truck was...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    My 19 had to right side replaced. Can’t tell at all. Repair shops do an amazing job now, as long as they are legit. Check it over and if it’s what you want then you will get a nicer truck than a non collision one, I’d say go for it. I used to be of the mindset of not buying a car involved in an...

    which bed cover leer or bak??

    I bought a BAK MX4 for my last truck, 18’ Silverado. The cover was junk. First the rails were too short, next the rubber seals peeled up within 6 months, they sent a new cover and the straps were too short to hold cover in half way open mode, and the rubber was peeling up after just weeks, then...

    Installed Readylift 3.5” and 35’s and now want a camper. Does this change anything for towing?

    Some say it does, I do not know on a legal stand point. That would be decided if something went wrong and something really bad happened to the point the courts were involved. I would reduce my capacity some unless you re-gear to account for the loss in powertrain ability. Also, I recommend this...

    11,000lb camper towing with 2019 big horn

    Please don't tow that camper with a half ton truck. Legally speaking you will be illegal no matter what you do as your truck isn't rated for that amount. Look at this site and plug in your trucks specific numbers to see what you can safely and/or legally tow: Towing Calculator. This calculator...

    Any options out for rock rails/sliders yet?

    No kidding! I swiped a short concrete wall with my 19’ ram with 1,000 miles on it. After waiting over a month for Mopar to get the parts to my body shop it’s finally starting to get fixed. I can’t stress the importance of protecting rocker panels, it’s crazy expensive to get repaired!

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Let’s be clear about what noise this thread was initially referencing when it was created. It is a SINGLE LOUD CLANK/CLUNK. I have noticed two additional types of noises after reading numerous threads, and seeing these trucks on lots. One is a “chatter” that continues for a while (multi...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    I respect your opinion, however the clunk is similar to a “bang.” I find metal banging probably isn’t a good thing in my opinion. Also, I have tired the light pedal application with removing foot and it is still present. Regardless it’s is straight up embarrassing. I have turned many heads in...

    LSD or Locker

    Please double check your information. This is NOT the case.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    The clicking noise you guys refer to are separate and distinctly different from the loud single "clunk" at start up that we are talking about. These are two totally different things. the clinking isn't much, if any, concern to me. The "SINGLE LOUD CLUNK" (SLC) however is. *UPDATE* I placed...

    LSD or Locker

    I also went with the locker. It is the best choice. These new cars have traction control that applies individual wheel brakes during spin. This kinda acts like a LSD. In order of traction I would say; open, traction control, Limited slip, selectable locker. The locker is a good choice if you...

    Another 3.21 vs 3.92 comparison

    How much does the trailer weight? After a ton of research I’ve come to the conclusion you will need a 2500 or higher if you are towing a camping trailer and having your family ride in the truck. That gets even more reinforced if you end up needing to put anything in the trucks bed. I gave up on...

    Another 3.21 vs 3.92 comparison

    http://www.wk2jeeps.com/pdf/8HP75_Data_sheeet.pdf I found this but it doesn’t specify which transmission ratio spread out trucks have (7.071 vs 7.813). https://media.fcanorthamerica.com/pdf.do?id=18758 This says ours have the same spread as the 850RE transmission, which has the 7.071 from my...

    Another 3.21 vs 3.92 comparison

    Do you know where this chart is? I’ve searched and can’t find it.

    Another 3.21 vs 3.92 comparison

    Does anyone know the transmission ratios for the 19 1500’s 8hp75? I keep finding conflicting info. 4.71 vs 5.0 (1st).

    Another 3.21 vs 3.92 comparison

    My calculations put it at an 18% different in RPM. I have always wondered if wear and tear for non-towing is reduced with the higher (lower #) gears? Diesels have a long life which is said to be *partly* from their lower RPMs. A truck with 3.21's engine is rotating 18% slower than a 3.92...

    Another 3.21 vs 3.92 comparison

    This post wasn’t meant, and doesn't, imply the 3.21s are as good as 3.92s in regards to towing heavy loads. It was aimed at addressing LEGAL load ratings and being able to reach those ratings when taking payload into account. J2807 sets the testing for towing ability. Rams are J2807 compliant...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Thanks for the update. Sorry to hear that didn’t solve the issue. Check out my video in a prior post that has the driveshaft depicted when starting the truck. The drive shaft rotates some and then the clunk is heard. In my next video the driveshaft moves but no clunk... they replaced your...

    18" wheel thread-Lets see your aftermarket set up!

    Those look great! I love Fuel wheels! I actually want to get some Fuel wheels for mine, and it’s actually the reason I’m asking for people to share. I am leaning towards their “Throttle” wheel, and I also want to move my stick tires to them. This gives me hope!

    18" wheel thread-Lets see your aftermarket set up!

    Thanks for sharing! Those turned out good! What are wheel skinz? Is it durable and available in black? Cost if you don’t mind me asking?
