    DT Service Manual

    Good luck with that. I've talked with them several times. They said it is "escalated to their help desk". Whatever the hell that is supposed to mean. I told them that if they didn't hurry up and make it right, that I was going to just charge back my credit card and be done with them. But I...

    20" to 18" tire swap

    I swapped from the stock 18s to the cladded 20s. Based Upon the GPS that is built into Waze, my speedo is well within spec. Yours should be the same.

    Experience with SD Wheels?

    This is why I buy everything with a credit card, and even Paypal if possible. Very easy to stop/reverse charges for no delivery of goods.

    DT Service Manual

    It does. Everything looks as I would have expected, until I started poking around in the files. ("Wait... That looks like a "Classic" grill... That doesn't look like my exhaust... That doesn't look like my cluster or center stack..." Blah, blah, blah... ) Thanks for the offer. I'm not in a...

    Anyone with the DT Field Service Manual, in search of wiring diagram

    I would certainly like a manual, too. I think they are not available yet. (I hope I'm wrong.)

    DT Service Manual

    Annnd five days later I get my USB-credit-card-looking-thing. Label says 81-370-19074-SUSB. When I jump through the hoops and get it to open on my computer, it's for the DS truck. :mad: Called Techauthority. "We'll launch an investigation, and get back with you within two business days." I'm...

    Question about auto-dimming mirrors

    Okay. Mine (Bighorn Sport) dim on all but the passenger side. So I guess that's normal. Seems like a "cheap-out", but yeah...

    What Fuel is everyone using?

    No big. I wasn't having a great day, so please disregard anything I said that was "out of line". My entire point being that running the cheap stuff will likely cause a slight to moderate performance penalty when the engine is pushed hard, but also will likely not damage anything. Hence the...

    2019 Ram 1500 Salvage Rebuild Video

    What Fuel is everyone using?

    I understand how the engine works. I have been tuning PCMs/ECMs since like 2007. Based upon the info provided to me, the engine will run fine on 87. The PCM may pick up a bit of knock, under extreme conditions (like my previously mentioned high-speed pass), and will retard the ignition timing a...

    The DT Achilles Heel (If your having problems read this)

    Excellent info. Thanks so much for sharing!

    What Fuel is everyone using?

    What sort of "compression issues"? Your PCM may have pulled spark timing. Or may have dumped boost. But I assure you, nothing happened to the compression. Aside from that... nearly all boosted engines require 91 or 93. Why were you running 87 in a turbo'd engine in the first place? I would...

    Security system is not included/standard? WTH?!

    Went and tried it again. This time I took the fob almost to the other end of the house. Waited several minutes while I was working on something else. Reached in and opened the door. Nothing. Strangely enough, I received a vehicle quality feedback questionnaire today. Absolutely blasted CFA...

    Security system is not included/standard? WTH?!

    Okay. Maybe I need to try it one more time. The fob was a good truck-length away when I opened the door. Maybe I need to carry it to the other end of the basement, and wait a bit longer. Build sheet lookup tool? I was able to save a PDF of my window sticker, but I'm guessing you are talking...

    Security system is not included/standard? WTH?!

    Rolled the window down just enough to reach in. Locked the doors with two presses of the fob. (Got the "horn and lights" ACK.) Took the fob into the garage, away from the truck. Went back out and reached through the window, and pulled up the lock button. Opened the door. I was greeted by...

    Security system is not included/standard? WTH?!

    After playing with the fob and door locks, and after having consulted the user guide, I must conclude that the security system (you know... the one that blows the horn and flashes the lights, when someone breaks in) is NOT included. IN A $48,000 TRUCK! WHY NOT?! All the hardware is there. Why...

    Adding Factory brake controller?

    Just got my controller (and rear wheelwell liners) today. I've been calling around for prices to get the controller programmed. Everyone is quoting between $129 and $179. 1 hour. (One dealer quoted $250, but that's not a surprise. They're one of those "bend you over" stealerships. Always have...

    For those that want to add the factory trailer brake controller...

    Looks like the number has been superseded again. Latest I've seen is 82215278AE. Appears to interchange with AC and AD. Just ordered one today. $189 for the whole kit. Also ordered the factory splash shields/wheel well liners for $159. So... big whoop... right? Shipping is free. Most everyone...
