Thanks, guys. This is all very informative, I appreciate the replies. I should have spent some time on this forum before making the purchase! I’ll keep that in mind next time ‘round. :cool:

No kidding

About 18-19 combined with the V6 3.21 so far... 4000 miles, just about.

:cry: Yeah, v6 with 3.21 - I didn’t realize it would be a problem as I’ve had HEMIs in all my previous Rams and my wife has the 3.6 in her AWD Durango and it gets great mileage, is pleasant to drive, and has been very reliable. I’m realizing maybe not so much in the Ram...

Thank you, Dusty. Yep, I have about 4000 miles now. Sounds like I need to not worry about it and let the engine and transmission continue to break in and loosen up?

I have the 3.6L and 3.21 gears, and my truck will rarely shift into 8th when cruising on the highway at any speed above 75. If I can manage to get into 8th, it’ll downshift on any slight grade. Is this to be expected? Wind resistance/physics? It’s disappointing to not be able to take advantage...

What’s the part number for the Sumos?

Yeah, the stock bumpers are 3.5” tall. The stock gap is around 3.5” to the axle from what I can estimate.

Sure. I’ll take a few. The ride is fine loaded, can’t tell they’re back there. But, unloaded, if you ride over raised railroad tracks, speed bump, decent bump on the highway, you’ll feel them engage which is a bit jarring. But, I deal with it as I prefer to have the help with a loaded bed or...

Yeah, I’ve got about 1.25 - 1.5” clearance without removing the rubber spacer.

DRTT1500 is what I bought. I agree with the statement above ^^. While my truck never squats or rides nose high loaded, it feels like bottoming out in the rear on medium bumps. I deal with it as it doesn't bother me too much, but it definitely takes the luxury ride away compared to the stock...

Corsa single out kit with the black exhaust tip, and then added a 18” length 5” diameter Vibrant resonator in the pipe upstream from the muffler. The resonator is removed due to being in the rear, in turn making the Corsa kit extreme sound level, and it was too extreme for me. I’ve got some...

Damn, dude...I'm sorry. I should have pasted this in on my last post!

Front bolt closest to bumper 185 Nm (136lbs) and rear bolt 115 Nm (84lbs).

+1 my Pentastar Ram is lethargic when it's cold. It'll have a tough time accelerating and then once it hits 3rd, it's surge forward even though I've applied constant throttle. I believe there is a TSB to address. Now, my dealer said that they applied the PCM and TCM, and HCP updates, but part of...

Some “cheap” things I’ve done that weren’t already said: - Black Exhaust tip on the 3.6L stock pipe (cut a square end) - WeatherTech plate frame to replace dealer frame - Swap chrome lugs for Black ($50 a wheel count?)

I would be interested to hear what you find out. I upgraded from a 4th Gen 5.7L to the 3.6 e torque and I am surprised how often the truck seems to have a hard time keeping speed, and struggles to cruise even on the slightest incline. It's an odd feeling, one that would make you believe the...

I second this. I turned of hill assist and my downshifts are much smoother. Although, from what I read, it shouldn't have anything to do with the problem. It has seemed to clear up with it disabled. I am too experiencing very sluggish acceleration below 20MPH, and a "surge of acceleration with...

Anyone know if the Ram Airflow kit will fit? Or can it be adapted to work? Any other word on if a CAI will be built for the Pentastar? That custom tube is impressive! But, wondering if there's a complete kit on the horizon...

Thanks! I’m going to continue to drive and look forward to the break in and hope it continues to learn how I drive. I will also ask for updates to the TCM and PCM when I go in for my first oil change. The V6 is smooth and has plenty of power when you get on it. I think there’s something wrong...
