    Differential Additives

    All, I'm in the learning phase as well. So I am sure I have just a regular rear axle in the 4x4 truck with no special gears. So what happens if one were to add the Mopar Friction Modifier fluid when doing the fluid change along with the required rear-end gear oil to a standard ratio, standard...

    Seeking directions / Advice on changing tire size from factory tires...

    All Today I changed my tire size using AlphaOBD, my MX+ Code reader, and a cable. I used a GPS program on my phone to check for the speedometer accuracy with the new tires. My factory tire size was 275/55/R20 and I changed it to 275/60/R20. I purchased the Bridgestone Revo 3 All Terrain...

    Seeking directions / Advice on changing tire size from factory tires...

    That is exactly the magic wand I plan to use from the superhero tool belt. I am hoping that it will be just that easy or use the tire size you gave earlier of the stock Rebel tire size and be close. If not then I will play with numbers to find the sweet spot. BlueHemi1500

    Front coil spring questions?

    Hello All, I have spent the last 3 weeks getting my 2020 1500 Larime Level 1, 47k miles - factory stock except for a few cosmetic mods. (The dealer did not have all the parts and then broke some and had to order more parts.) Last Friday, I was finally able to get the front struts replaced...

    BiDirectional Scan Tool?

    Welcome to the club and the forum. There is a wealth to learn from and I have certainly learned/read lots from our fellow owners/users. I have this OBD scanner and also, I have AlphaOBD software (android only or for Apple - JSCAN). I have another cheap OBD reader I use for my Outback only as...

    2019 Ram 1500 DT Bighorn Canbus Issues

    I have read on one of the forums where I am a member that there have been potential problems with rear taillights having moisture, and once that issue was resolved the other problems were also solved. I can not remember which forum or topic I read this information. I read a lot about our trucks...

    2022 Ram 1500 “Big Horn’’ 5.7 with 26k miles is it a smart purchase asking before I buy it

    I have a Nused 2020 with approx. 47K miles. I have only done routine maintenance, put gas in the tank, and drive with miles of smiles. If the truck meets the needs and the wallet is willing, play, "Let's make a deal." You are the final and only judge. BlueHemi1500

    Seeking directions / Advice on changing tire size from factory tires...

    What are the factory sizes of the Rebel tires? I think they are on 18-inch or 17-inch rims. Please let me know the size of the Rebel stock tires are, and I will see what AlphaOBD lists when I get home from the Firestone dealer which is about 10 or so miles. So I should be ok to drive a bit...

    Proactive brake replacement at 50k? How long did your brakes last?

    My truck has almost 48K miles. So far my brakes are fine, I did add some brake fluid about a month ago, and I noted some softness and extra travel vs when I got the truck (Nused). The fluid remains clear and the small amount of brake fluid I added firmed up the brake pedal to where I prefer...

    Sun Visor broken

    All, My part from Amazon for some reason is no longer available, per the Amazon site. But in the last several months, the parts work well with the better screws I purchased from Lowes. So currently my part is not a valid part to purchase, if it comes back I would highly recommend provided you...

    Who makes the best rear under-seat storage?

    I bought my crew cab Nused last year, it has factory Underseat storage. It works great, it does not lock but I do not use it for anything other than equipment used for hauling items in the bed such as tiedown straps, cargo net, and bungee cords—these items that are not high theft targets, and...

    Any recommendations on floor covers that actually cover all the way in the back toward the cab? truly custom covers that cover all the carpet?

    I have the factory rubber floor mats front and back. My truck has the rear underseat storage option. They have ridges on the outside perimeters and do a great job at containing junk and minor amounts of liquids. These rear mats do not cover all the way to the rear wall as you asked, they are...

    2019 Ram 1500 5.7L Oil Pan Removal

    Wow, gone are the days of just unbolting the pan, getting a new gasket, making sure the old gasket is fully removed, using some gasket sealant putting the new gasket on the pan, bolting up the pan, and torquing the bolts to spec. Just WOW. Well above my tools, and skill level. BlueHemi1500

    2023 Ram Rebel GT 5.7 loses power for no reason while driving...anyone else?

    Maybe spark problems or fuel flow problems are the 2 big things that jump out. Granted there is a mountain of potential in the 2 main topics. I'm sure that if the truck were to visit the repair shop it would return with the dreaded "unable to duplicate," please remit 1 arm, and 1 leg for the...

    Bedliner indentations

    The horizontal indents are to help in building, a flat floor over the rear wheel wells. Then you have additional space that increases the width of your materials from the 48 inches between the wheel wells, and or build a second level deck to have 2 levels of storage. These can be very useful...

    Does anyone know what these bed brackets are for?

    I have a factory rack. How do you install the new sliders in the rack? I am very interested in obtaining these as I use my rack frequently for tie-downs and have wished for more frequently, these are very handy. Thanks in advance for the advice/help. :) BlueHemi1500
