    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    I now have 112 days with NO capricious drops into neutral while driving. So far so good. All I did was thoroughly clean the TB of all the gunked up residue, replace the O-ring, and then later installed an OCC. I want to thank Kicksnare for suggesting it! Hope no one has been harmed by the...

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    Hello everyone! I now have 96 days with no drops into neutral after cleaning my TB. It has been driven in 40degF to 95degF temperatures. Hope everyone that hasn't had this problem resolved is safe out there.

    Exhaust Manifold Leak

    Damn! That's crappy. Got my fingers crossed, for your new headers, and my JBA's.

    Largest stock tire and wheel setup

    Yup, my non-air ride rebel has about a 1/2" space (at most) between the 275/70R18 tire and the UCA. And here is a lovely photo of the measurements of a RAM Rebel wheel, enjoy!

    Exhaust Manifold Leak

    JBA 1961S-3 - These are a direct drop-in on 2019+ DT's, and will fix the perpetual cracking manifolds.

    Largest stock tire and wheel setup

    Do you have the backspacing measurement on the Factory TRX Rims? This Wheel Offset Caluclator is handy: Wheel Offset Calculator

    Need help with Wheel offsets/sizes!

    I'm a tad late, but was poking aorund the Forums and saw this thread, and I had my Rebel wheels off to try some other rims and took this photo of the back of a Rebel Rim. RAM thoughtfully placed all measurements on the back of a spoke.

    Largest stock tire and wheel setup

    Looks great! The picture of the UCA in relation to the tire sidewall is really helpful, see lots of posts on here asking that question.

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    Checking in with my neutral-drop support group, I now have 69 days with no neutral-drops after cleaning my TB. I also recently installed an OCC to hopefully prevent the frequency of cleaning the TB. The TB is held in place by screws with real coarse threads, (think wood screw threads), that...

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    It appears that dealerships have not been able to fix the transmission throwing itself into neutral gremlin. There must be lots of trucks where this does not happen, what is different about them? Maybe it's time for folks to start making vehicle safety reports to the National Highway...

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    Well that is super crappy! I had (maybe still have) the capricious drop into neutral while driving. I cleaned my TB and it's been almost two months with no neutral drop gremlins, it used to happen a couple times a week. This has also not worked for other folks. What mileage did it start on yours?

    Exhaust Manifold Leak

    Let's see, with stock cats & exhaust: Might be a tad louder on WOT, but this is a completely subjective and unscientific observation on my part. The headers do have the steroetypical "pinging" sound I remember from every set of headers I've put on a vehicle. Still lays me back in the seat when...

    Exhaust Manifold Leak

    You'll like the JBA's, they permanently solved both of my split-down-the-middle exhaust manifolds. Maybe RAM can start installing pillows that pop out of the head rests when the CO reaches levels that cause the ole' sleepy time in the truck cabins! Let us know how the headers work out, and if yo...

    2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn Tailgate won’t open

    No cover, just a well used tailgate, in dirty/dusty conditions. I soaked the latch mechanisms with a penetrating lubricant, let them soak for a bit, then blew them out with compressed air. After that, they got a healthy dose of white lithium and they are unlocking consistently now. Might replace...

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    The best fix I found was, to not drive the truck ;). Cleaning the TB seems to be a mixed bag of results, I have almost two months of no drops into neutral after cleaning the TB. Other folks cleaned their TB and it immediately drops into neutral after the cleaning. After reading and re-reading...

    2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn Tailgate won’t open

    Have 2019 Rebel with standard tailgate that has started not opening intermittently. Thank you to eveyrone that posted fixes on here. Going to try lubing it first. NOT going to dealership, I hate hassles. Me yelling into the wind - I had a 2003 Dakota that I put 225K miles on, and it was...

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    I cleaned the TB on August 4, 2022, it is now September 7, 2022, and so far the truck has not decided to drop into neutral of its own accord. Was this the problem causing the computer to throw the truck into neutral? Maybe. I really want to see how it does on those cold mornings; <60 deg F, but...

    Exhaust Manifold Leak

    Well, Just so happens, I happen to have some unscientific heat measurements on some up to temperature JBA's (I know they're not AFE's). Hot enough to cook a chicken at the collector and hot enough for a pot roast on the tubes.

    2019 - Cracked Exhaust Manifold - Replacement Options?

    No problem, happy to help. I thought the JBA's were fine, thick flange, right at 3/8", welds were all closed, no modifiications needed, some spatter inside, but meh, it's not a race car. The dipstick tube has two brackets: upper one bolts to the upper left manifold/header bolt and the other...
