    OEM TPMS Sensor Issue

    I have replaced all the senders in my truck in the past year. First 2 were oem, broadcasting on 433Mhz, the second pair was chinese knock offs. All took several miles of driving before being picked up, no programming necessary.

    Persistent headlight-popping gremlin in a 2020 Ram 1500 5.7

    Could it be your voltage regulator having fits? I run this in my truck. ANCEL BM300 12V Battery Monitor, Bluetooth

    Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor failed today. What do you guys recommend?

    Bought cheap TPMS sensors from amazon, 433Mhz, replaced on my driveway, no need to program then. Took a while for them to link up tho.

    Weird two way radio sounds

    High power AM transmitter comes to mind. Could be bleed over from a ham station. I had one in our neighborhood, could hear him through my desktop speakers.

    trying to start truck: brake pedal very stiff, only a solenoid click when pressing start button

    Tried that with my truck, starts up just fine. Most likely a minor vacuum leak in the system, not large enough to set off any codes.

    Replacement shock absorbers on a 4-corner air-suspension Ram.

    Pretty sure alfa OBD has the ability to pump down the bags without dumping all the gas. What are your plans for recharging the vented nitrogen? Asking because I feel that this coming up for me in the not so distant future.

    Fender Flares or not? *Update Flares and Spacers Installed*

    That thing looks sweet without flares. The OEM`s look fine, only add about an inch without looking obnoxious.

    Rear Brake Drum Issue

    I would turn it till it did not turn any more, backing out the adjuster all the way. Your drums have most likely worn down quite a bit creating a shoulder that is hanging up on the shoes. Just to clarify, do the drums move in and out at all or are they stuck to the axle? If stuck to the axle...

    Does an E-Locker 3.21(?) Change The Fluid Weight To 140?

    75-90 for the 3.21, 75-140 for the 3.92 according to my owners manual, does not differentiate between locker and non locker, only adds the friction modifier for the anti spin.

    Rear Brake Drum Issue

    Looks like you have the old fashioned cable setup. The 5th gen uses an electric actuator for the parking brake and if not placed in service mode it will extend all the way and mess up the caliber.

    Start Up Issue

    Your battery might need replacing, our trucks are rough on them. And, just that it checks good, does not mean anything. Several threads here discussing the problem.

    Adding power outlets to the bed?

    Just finished up installing a 12 volt SB50 for running my fridge/charging the battery from solar panel. Not tied to the truck battery, might do that later on with a battery isolator.

    8.4 radio replacement

    This is on the 8.4 display. The 12 inch is little different. Disconnect the negative battery terminal. Remove the upper center bezel tray liner, remove the two screws. Firmly grasp the sides of the instrument panel center bezel by hand, disengage the retainer clips that secure the instrument...

    Lumbar Support, im dying here!! Ram 1500 Tungsten

    Could be a mechanical problem with the drive system or maybe it has been installed incorrectly. Can you compare it with an other truck on the dealer lot?
