    B&M 70395 8HP75 transmission pan DID NOT FIT my 2020 ram 5.7

    I know right? Looking at the PPE pan it looks like the test truck they used has the same style cats as my truck. Would be interesting to see what your truck has and what other members trucks have on them. I sent a inquiry to B&M explaining my findings... Hopefully they contact me and I can...

    B&M 70395 8HP75 transmission pan DID NOT FIT my 2020 ram 5.7

    Upon further review my 2020 has different cats than what was on the truck that they used. I guess going forward if you are interested in this pan you have to verify if you have the longer cat like in their picture or the shorter one like my truck has. I feel slightly better now knowing why it...

    B&M 70395 8HP75 transmission pan DID NOT FIT my 2020 ram 5.7

    This is a closeup of the catalytic converter on the B&M truck, I wish I could go outside and take a picture of mine... its currently 27 degrees and we got 8" of fresh snow last night haha

    B&M 70395 8HP75 transmission pan DID NOT FIT my 2020 ram 5.7

    I agree about the cork gasket, I was not a fan of that at all. Its 2025 o-ring the pan LOL. While attempting my install when I was on the phone with someone at holley (B&M) i explained to them that the band in the center of the catalytic converter in the picture they show looked larger than the...

    B&M 70395 8HP75 transmission pan DID NOT FIT my 2020 ram 5.7

    I have looked into that pan also, It seems like a nice alternative. The way the sump on the B&M pan contours the exhaust crossover on my truck room is very limited, this one definitely looks to be better. They have installed pictures on their website and it looks like they have plenty of...

    B&M 70395 8HP75 transmission pan DID NOT FIT my 2020 ram 5.7

    The main reason I tried to go with a aftermarket pan was the replaceable filter. Everytime you do the OEM one you have to toss the whole assembly in the garbage. With this pan the extra 4 quart capacity of oil was also nice for towing my travel trailer. I build racecar engines for a living and...

    What did you WITH your Ram this weekend

    I made a thread that went more in detail, I called B&M (holley) while I had the truck apart, Spoke to someone who basically read me the instruction manual. Im thinking the guy I spoke to never has seen this pan before. After I explained my issue he told me that the pan was engineered for my...

    What did you WITH your Ram this weekend

    Today I attempted to install a B&M Transmission pan on my 2020 5.7... it didnt fit Pan was right against the exhaust crossover, in this pic you can see how far it off and this is AFTER clearancing the exhaust slightly

    B&M 70395 8HP75 transmission pan DID NOT FIT my 2020 ram 5.7

    Today I attempted to install a B&M Hi-Tek Transmission pan on my 2020 5.7 5th Gen and it did not fit. Project was going well, thankfully for youtube I had watched a bunch of videos so I knew what I was getting into. Got the old pan off easily, Cleaned the gasket mating surface, Installed the...

    8 Speed Transmission Fluid Change: 8HP75

    Tomorrow I am installing a B&M transmission pan on my truck, The stock pan doesn't have a serviceable filter so you have to replace the whole assembly so I figure for the extra money I might as well go aftermarket plus it holds 4 extra quarts of oil which should help me while towing. I have a...

    NEED HELP- Exhaust Manifold on perpetual backorder

    I took my truck (2020) to the dealer last July for manifolds, Truck had 59K on it at the time... They didn't have them in stock and had to order them, The first week of august they changed both manifolds under 5yr/60k Powertrain warranty.

    Mysterious clunk and squeak in my 5th gen ram

    Update on my clunk... I think I finally found it. I did the body mount update, still had the same noise. Did some more research and found people talking about the sway bar bushings getting worn, when they do the the shoulder of the sway bar itself can make contact with the piece of metal that...

    Mysterious clunk and squeak in my 5th gen ram

    Upon further review it wasn't my spare tire, After I tightened it up I must have missed every spot in the road that would cause my clunk... Its still there LOL

    Mysterious clunk and squeak in my 5th gen ram

    I hope your fix is as easy as mine was.. I have been dealing with a similar clunk for the last month or so. In the morning when it was cold it was bad, as it warmed up outside or as I drove it seemed to be less noisy. I've been under the truck checking things... cant find anything loose. Today...
