    Household electric issues

    Might be kinda important to find that, or disconnect and run another.

    FINALLY found my truck's towing and payload capacities!

    Well, usually... 😄 Seriously tho, if you ever load up and want to see the numbers, you can have 4100lbs on the rear axle, 7100lbs on the whole truck, and 17k lbs GCW for a V8 3.92. The sticker only does some of the math for you.

    FINALLY found my truck's towing and payload capacities!

    Ram's website has a VIN decoder as well that will tell you your exact truck specs. It was working the last time I looked. As already said, the chart is near worthless.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I clipped the clips on the cables and carefully removed them from the battery, and swapped it out. Admittedly a little fidgety, but worked properly. A tender or jumper that goes to the cig lighter from amazon would be easier. Literally any old charger from walmart: Even 1.25 amps would be...

    ATF in Coolant

    May be obvious, but flush both systems. The “strawberry milkshake of death” is a thing with Nissan. The trans doesn’t live long running with that water base, if it has crossed. Trans is 100psi, coolant is 20psi, so may be safe. Obviously a new radiator is needed, hope you have warranty.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Just for mechanic-ing. I used a small battery charger to save my settings when I was swapping batteries. Don’t need hardly any amps for memories.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Most cars have the wheel speed sensor in the hub, and some designs lose sensor capability if the bearings loosen. After a dozen gm, I generally wait for this service light to know when it is getting loose enough to change. I’ve done 4th gens as well, but you should definitely trace this down to...

    Differential Additives

    It would be perfectly fine. The gears and bearings are the same no matter the carrier type. You should youtube a differential. "Standard" ratio??🤔

    Differential Additives

    I assume the additive is only for the anti spin differential? Both the open and locker wouldn’t need the additive for clutch action?

    Rear Squat With Nissans Towing

    I seen a new escape pulling a 8x16 cargo trailer, and an explorer pulling a 23' TT, both last week. People do stupid crap all the time.

    which load rating is best for a comfort ride?

    If you accept 20's, the majority of 275/60/20 will be C range, i.e. a better ride than E range. There are only a very few C range in the 18, as you have found out. The E range also hits the mpg a bit.

    Help with tire choice on 2019 Ram 1500 - XL vs D Rated Tire (Mickey Thompson vs FWP A/T4W)

    What is the goal? Comfort? Then almost all of the 60 series are either SL, P, or C range for comfort. Why do you want XL - towing? then D+ is gonna ride stiffer. XL may ride about the same as C.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Is that correct, a 10-14 week leadtime??? Mercy, they gotta slaughter the cows and sun dry the hides?

    Rebel Tires for Highway

    Generals are about the only C range tire, and the ATX may have the look you want, but I doubt the mileage to go with it.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Wolfstorm. Find a thread of rear bumpers around here. Not completely welded yet, just dry fitted at the moment. Low budget. Steel replacement of plastic OEM.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I parked today. I park next to this one regularly. My tradesman came with a rear camera by law, but this one hasn’t ever looked owt for the parking lines.

    New Ram 1500 with super LOW battery voltage?

    Came in a week early. Had a car for this last week. Didn't see the bill, so don't have a good idea yet if I want to keep it. Hurricane???

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Just to close this out, my truck got delivered to my work today, because they really wanted the rental car back. 48V battery changed and 13.5V on the dash, a week earlier than predicted. All good for now.
