    Air conditioning performance

    Order parts and have them ready to go just in case. Remember when everyone use to add transmission coolers for towing? This is less invasive than that really. Just return to stock before any service work. :cool:

    Air conditioning performance

    If you add modification, do not cut factory hoses so you can restore truck back to stock without a trace. Do at your own risk! You can use Harbor Freight clamps to limit coolant loss on heater hoses while installing mod on a cooled down engine. Then take them off and enjoy cool AC!

    Air conditioning performance

    This will cool you off.......do at your own risk and don't cut factory hoses so you can remove when fix is available from FCA Ram engineers. 5/8" heater hose fits 3/4" Pex barb fittings perfectly. You have total control to flow and bypass.

    AC - does anyone have a truck that blows ice cold?

    Exactly!!! The guys with no issues generally just enjoy their trucks but the ones with problems seek out the forums to "vent" and see if others are having same issue. Then the remaining bunch of us are here wanting to customize our trucks and see what others are doing to theirs to make them...

    Air conditioning Hack

    If some very cold air is coming out of defroster vents, the windshield glass gets chilled down and moisture condenses just like your "scotch on the rocks" glass does on outside, especially if its humid. The wipers will take it off temporarily but the defrost vent air temp is cause. I assume...

    Changed Dash Speakers To Kickers...WOW!

    Great! I just ordered another pair of Infinity ref 3032cfx speakers as the sale on them ends tonight at Crutchfield. Thanks for quick reply. Must be no major issue if there is slight fitment problem. Nice to have all 3 the same on dash

    AC - does anyone have a truck that blows ice cold?

    Uh oh...a new airbag recall..... Now that a little back yard plumbing fixes AC, next duct tape 5 grandma size Kotex pads onto center of steering wheel just in case you get in accident and airbags choose to not deploy. We can McGyver anything Ram throws at us!!! (y)...

    Crutch field says the Infinity 3032cfx won't fit center dash in the Alpine. Is there clearance issue?

    Changed Dash Speakers To Kickers...WOW!

    I just ordered the Infinity 3032 cfx dash corner speakers for my 2019 Rebel with Alpine option from Crutchfield. I was going to order a second pair so I would have one for center speaker, but Crutchfield rep says it won't fit center spot on dash and they only show 1 speaker that will fit...

    Fuel 18x9 +1 if you want to stay with OEM 18" Goodyear Duratracs These are Fuel Hardline but several styles available in same diameter and width. You gain an inch in width from stock and tires move out about an inch and line up perfect with factory running boards. Wheels with rivots, etc...

    2019 RAM 1500 hellwig swaybar

    I love it! In fact a car along side me changed lanes on me and I did an evasive move towards side of road and it was very responsive and in complete control. After install, I started in center hole medium setting but now it is in closest to axle highest setting. The huskier tires on Rebel...

    2019 RAM 1500 hellwig swaybar

    if they work with current bar keeping arms somewhat parallel to ground , it should work with Hellwig bar. The Hellwig links look husky in pictures. It would be a benefit to be adjustable and plenty husky. My 2 cents

    Air conditioning Hack

    KcRay is our trailblazer on being the first to come up with a solution to make a real difference in AC temps. Like I said before, he should be up for his own ticker tape parade or maybe Nobel prize. Fat guys like me everywhere can now cool down on a hot day! His design has been proven by...

    Air conditioning Hack

    When building an all new platform vehicle, they should have required engineers to make the heating/cooling ductwork to be service friendly with hatch sections under dash to service such things as blend doors. These types of problems were happening in years past designs so why not give easier...

    Air conditioning Hack

    The coolant flow comes out of a black pipe on water pump with hose that says "out" and travels to heater core port on firewall. Then other hose from other heater core port returns to another port on water pump and hose marked "in". Member KcRay added a valve between the black water pump pipe...

    Air conditioning performance

    But your driver center vent could be 45 also if heat from heater core wasn't diluting the chilled air with unwanted heat. Here is how to address it..... perform at your own risk and don't cut factory hoses so you can remove at any time without a trace.
