    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Started the war against chrome today. Swapped the mirror caps from chrome to body color matched. Despite being careful I lost my passenger side glass in the process. Mulled over some Amazon replacements, but couldn't find any with the auto dimming feature. A quick call to the dealer to...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    If I were never leaving pavement, probably not. With no spacer installed everything cleared under normal driving conditions. At full droop, however, the front tires were VERY close to rubbing the upper control arm: In all honesty clearance is clearance and that was probably fine given the...

    Charging my Trailer batteries from the RAM eTorque with a 60A Renogy DC-DC charger

    Changed from alternator to generator in the post. Truck still has an intelligent charging system that requires the IGN+ terminal to be connected.

    Using lower gear and 4 wheel low to control down hill speed

    Sorry, I should have mentioned this happened when locked into any gear 3rd or under. Putting it in 1st or 2nd resulted in the same "surging". The surging only stopped when I selected 4th or 5th as the highest allowable gear, and even when selecting 5th gear it would hold 4th gear for an...

    Using lower gear and 4 wheel low to control down hill speed

    Started from a complete stop, put the truck in 4lo and chose 3rd gear as the upper limit. Let off the brake and never touched the gas. Truck probably got to 5 or 6 mph, would then accelerate to 8 to 10 mph before slowing back down and then repeating. Not sure it was actaully dropping into...

    Using lower gear and 4 wheel low to control down hill speed

    Picked up a 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie a few months ago after coming from a long line of 4WD vehicles that I've modified heavily for camping and off road exploring. Over this past week I had a chance to get up into the Cherokee National Forest in Tennessee to do some camping and exploring on the...

    Charging my Trailer batteries from the RAM eTorque with a 60A Renogy DC-DC charger

    You'll have no problems. I have my Renogy MPPT DC-DC charger and a Renogy 100 amp hour battery mounted in my driver's side Rambox. Ran the cable from the positive battery terminal under the hood to a circuit breaker mounted to the back of the ECU and then back to the Renogy charger. You will...

    P0308 Cylinder 8 Misfire Detected

    I also just went through this at roughly 87,000 miles. Injector ohm tested fine, coil was fine, all spark plugs changed. Misfire would occur intermittently, but mostly at idle and less when the engine was under load. Ended up being the injector. Since installing a new injector I've had no more...

    P0308 Cylinder 8 Misfire Detected

    Misfires can stem from a number of things, but generally the diagnosis goes something like this: 1. Coil Pack - moving the coil pack from cylinder 8 to another cylinder, clearing the code and then driving the vehicle will reveal if the misfire follows the cylinder pack to the new cylinder. If...
