    Rear Brake Drum Issue

    Sure does. Had to get the undercoating after the truck’s first winter. We are relatively close to Fitchburg. That salt slurry they put on the roads up here really chews everything up. These trucks should come with anti seize on the rotors or at least those threaded holes if they’re this...

    Rear Brake Drum Issue

    Thanks, did all that except wire brush. Scraped around with a flathead in between the rotor and hub and drenched it in penetrant last night and just hit it again. Heat didn’t work but it’s also been cold up here in the northeast. Maybe just frozen. I did expect to have more movement from it than...

    Rear Brake Drum Issue

    Unfortunately, it didn’t work. Unbelievably, I still can’t get this rotor off. May have to tuck tail and take it in. Silly.

    Rear Brake Drum Issue

    I’m having a similar issue but I do have a 5th gen. 1. I put the truck in brake service mode 2. I took the rear wheel off 3. I removed the retaining screw (well, I actually had to drill the head off it after it snapped my t30 bit, but it should be free) 4. I sprayed wd-40 specialist penetrant...

    2020 RAM 1500 75K Miles Engine or MGU Whine/Noise??

    Replaced the 2 belts and 2 tensioners the other day and still heard a whirring noise. Probably early on in its failure, but at 79,930 miles, I thought it was a good time to bring it in. Dealer is covering MGU under 80k emissions warranty.

    Did you ever find a fix for this? I just started having the same issue.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Great tires up here in the north. You see them on a lot of trucks. I got KO2s, but didn’t like the wet traction or fuel mileage. Sold them on FB and switched to Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3 and have been very happy so far. Touring all-season tires are obviously much different than ATs, but ride...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I just calibrated mine using the RC inline one yesterday. Very easy to do - typed in old tire size and new tire size and loaded it into the device, then plugged the device into the speedo and was good to go. Dead on without having to redo anything. Was concerned I did it wrong because it was so...

    Tire recommendation please

    How are you liking the Contis? I had both of those on my list, but the Defenders were not available. Ended up going with Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3 today as my second choice. I think Tire Rack had them in an SUV touring category instead of the highway one, but reviews seem really good. We’ll...

    Pirelli tires

    Just installed these, so we’ll see. Second choice after they told me the Michelin Defenders were not available.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3 in 275/60r20 - really can’t tell if I like the looks of these but leaning towards I hate them. Couldn’t stand the Load D range KO2s I bought last year. Wanted something with more road manners and better fuel economy. Haven’t seen these on a truck before and wanted to...

    Appreciate it man, thank you.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Liking the new stance with the KO2s. Part of me thinks I should’ve gone 275/60 instead of 285/55 but probably just typical second-guessing of an expensive purchase. With the poke of these wheels, the 285s do look rather wide though.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Installed the Bilstein B12 1 inch rear coil springs and ORG rear shocks to match. Stripped a lug nut stem because I was being an impatient dumbass putting one of the wheels back on, but otherwise a relatively smooth install. Definitely recommend a pry bar and spring compressors.
