    Water stain... third brake light

    along with the rear window (which hadn't leaked in the 3 yrs I've owned the truck) and THE biggest leak was the antenna .. thus the carpets being replaced due to mold/mildew.

    Rear window leak

    Why do it yourself IF it is under warranty and gets replaced for free? Only thing that you can seal during your lunch hour would be your rear brake light -- they have new foam that is sticky on one side that is used (if you don't want the light replaced). The rear window tends to crack...

    Hemi Lawsuit May 2022 Discussion

    I grew up and went to school back in the days rebuilding 350s .. so I know :) But after getting my Cobra and swapping out the 4.6 for the 5.4 -- working on DOHCs is a great change! :)

    Water stain... third brake light

    Dropping the rear headliner takes time and patience to say the least. Remove both sets of pillars and untuck the headliner from the rear window just enough to reach in from the opened rear glass and have the 3rd brake light out helps too. I should have taken some step-by-step photos .. I still...

    Hemi Lawsuit May 2022 Discussion

    Must be another reason the Hemi is going away in a couple years we were told. We have at least 3 torn down each week at my place of work .. BUT the V6's are just as bad. I've replaced cams and lifters in more of those. I'm still shocked they use pushrods .. but I guess so does the LS motors...

    Water stain... third brake light

    If it is the latest version, then it will stick out a bit more than the stock one .. why? because the new design has a gasket that is nearly 3x that of the original, and it also has an additional gasket added to help seal. if you watch the water now, it runs off both sides of the 3rd brake light...

    Help identify this noise

    Passenger Side Exhaust Manifold .. there are also TSBs for the gasket just after the y-pipe as well .. replace that if you can tell it is leaking there.

    How to delete the active air dam?

    I thought for sure my rig had the harnesses down under, but I didn't see them. I was going to have my parts dept add the sales code so I could configure the rig, then try the resistor theory.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I work at the dealer, so no hurry here for the same reasons .. My carpet wont even be delivered until mid-end- of june, so that's why I'm happy to drive with the carpets out. They have to pay me to install them anyways, so I'm happy to take photos for the Warranty Work :) The shark fin was the...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Today I had to pull all the panels, seats, and carpets to have them replaced .. they were SOAKED and Moldy. Rear window is being replaced and the 3rd Brake light was still sealed -- then I read the updated Bulletin :: "Check the Antenna" and sure as sh_t .. after dropping the headliner down, I...

    Morning brake squeek

    There are 2 issues (and TSBs) -- you need to be more specific .. and "Warranty" no longer covers it, so purchase the parts yourself. High Pitch Squeal (in reverse) - replace pads and pad brackets Low Pitch Groan (damp mornings in reverse) - install 4 brackets to the caliper brackets Installed...

    How to delete the active air dam?

    I have had to replace 5 AADs in the past week due to the Service Bulletin for the corrosion in the connector. (Also had to replace an AGS as well on one of them). There is a "Communications" line and Ground on the AAD (along with power, of course). The AGS uses the same circuit so if one goes...

    Channels skipping when changing with steering wheel control

    There is a Star Case on it -- tell your dealership to follow it.

    Ticking noise on start up.

    We have had lifted trucks at the dealership and fixed those -- lift does not void the exhaust manifold issue.
