    Air conditioning Hack

    Nice job!!! Great info! I will order up the 3/4 size right now. I might get 2 .. valves and 2 .... 3/4 pex "T" fittings to make a cross hose (between "out" and "in" water pump hoses) to avoid any chance of a problem by restricting flow. Basically create my own bypass route with 1...

    RAM AC poor performance TWITTER/FACEBOOK

    Hello RamCares......are you communicating with management about how this AC issue is growing much bigger rapidly as the word spreads and weather warms? Just sending owners to a dealer that is going to reject problem isn't a valid solution.

    RAM AC poor performance TWITTER/FACEBOOK

    The 2019 Ram redesign has been on market for approximately 17 months. The AC threads clearly show that members were complaining last summer about warm temps from vents. For dealers to say vehicle is "operating normal" when vent temps are 60 degrees is totally unacceptable. The engineers had...

    Air conditioning Hack

    I am still not clear on how pressure has a bypass if we block coolant flow on "out" hose from water pump There are 3 other hoses, 2 that are on ports of bottom radiator hose and 1 from neck of thermostat that all head under engine. Can you explain the bypass route that relieves pressure? What...

    At this point, I think we have "poked the bear" and got "their" attention pretty good! I too have a loaded to the hilt custom ordered $62k flame red/black Rebel that I custom ordered April 4, 2018 and finally got it in August 2018. (Custom built for...on top of window sticker) I love my...

    That drawing is a V6 engine . The schematic could be also for V6.

    Please inspect yours and see if different build dates are different than mine.******update***** that is a V6 engine not a 5.7 Hemi. There are only 3 injectors and air cleaner intake is facing forward, not upwards. Upper radiator hose appears to be on drivers side. The document says at top it...

    Wow....that engine drawing and schematic looks different than my Rebel 5.7 Hemi built on 07/08/18. I just looked under hood and my heater hoses run non stop from water pump to heater core. There are 2 molded ports on lower radiator hose that has 2 hoses that disappear under passenger side of...

    Take a look at your truck. My Rebel has 2 heater hoses that go from water pump non stop trip to heater core. There are 3 other hoses that go under engine but I didn't follow them. I doubt an electric valve would be mounted there. Correct me if I am wrong.

    Air conditioning Hack

    I just looked at my Rebel underhood. The 2 heater hoses travel from water pump to heater core with no valve in between. There are 2 hoses that are hooked into ports molded into lower radiator hose and another hose from upper radiator hose thermostat housing but I didn't go underneath to...

    ***Read this***** Apparently FCA removed a 3-way coolant valve from the redesigned 5th gen Ram! I was searching out coolant valves and stumbled on to this part that fits 2013-2018 5.7 hemi Rams, but won't fit 2019 models. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm!

    *****Look at this***** I just discovered that Ram trucks 2013-2018 had a 3-way coolant valve with electric connections to it. I was searching out coolant valves and stumbled onto this. When I try to put in 2019 Ram it states it does not fit and 2013-2018 it does with 5.7 hemi. hmmmmmmmm so they...

    I bet that now that electric fans open up space that the belt driven fan/clutch use to live in, they can move components around to balance weight or open up service access. Just my guess.
