    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    For some of us, it is more about acceleration and power that it is about MPG or towing ability.

    Lower Temperature EcoDiesel Thermostat

    It would be going on a tuned truck. 208° just seems too high to me. Lower temperature usually means more power and more room before the engine gets really hot.

    Lower Temperature EcoDiesel Thermostat

    It will be going in a EcoDiesel engine. The thermostat is made into the housing. I don't think you can change the thermostat out of the housing.

    Lower Temperature EcoDiesel Thermostat

    Does anyone know of a source for a lower temperature late model EcoDiesel thermostat? I know Green Diesel has one but will not sell it to me. Looking for another source

    News on a tune?

    GDE should just sell out of Canada. HD Diesel Supply says they will not have a tune for the Gen 3 engine because it requires sending in the ECU....... :(

    News on a tune?

    Yeah, I looked on their Facebook page and saw one tuned truck taking off. Good bit of smoke there. I want a delete, but want very little smoke most of all. Smoke is unburnt fuel.... I will probably go with the GDE.

    News on a tune?

    DieselRebel, did they send something to plug the return cool egr pipe? I guess you just tape up the wires that were connected to the old pipe? Dang... I wish there would be some type of dyno or comparison to this tune to the soon to be released GDE. Is there a dyno chart of the MR Tuning...

    News on a tune?

    With the HP and Torque difference, I think it would be apparent. And you could always ask them, 'did you mess with the computer... seems different'

    News on a tune?

    Checked with my dealer and cost of the ECU is a little over $200 but they charge $1495 to program it. I will not be going that way. From what I hear, the GDE tune is usually not detectable with dealer equipment. The ECU would have to be sent in to FCA and diagnosed to really find any...

    News on a tune?

    I plan to tell my dealer I want to purchase a spare ECU and them program it with any updates and go ahead and install it in the truck, then give me the original one in there. I will send that one off. Should not be against the law to purchase a spare ECU...! Dang, it is a part they sell from...

    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    If your worried about gas prices, get the diesel. My diesel has the 3.92, so I guess I get the best mileage (diesel) and fastest acceleration (3.92)... :p

    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    Maybe that's why Ram offers different ratios. You can order what you want. Pleases two different groups of people. No need in trying to prove to the other group why you like your ratio or why you think it's better. Just be happy with what you chose. No one wants to second guess their choice...

    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    That's what I would like to see... 0-top end with the same engine, identical trucks, 3.23 vs 3.92. Then do a fuel economy run, preferably longer than 200 miles. I'm hopefully not in Ida's path... In North Louisiana. How about you?

    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    Just read my manual more thoroughly. My 2020 has the TCS system and I have the limited slip axle option. How do these two systems work together in the rear axle? Seems like the TCS would not activate in the rear end with the limited slip. I have only driven once in ice and snow (Louisiana)...

    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    A limited slip rear end has clutch plates that gives traction to the wheel that is not spinning. As far as I know, the Ram does not have electronic brake manipulation for traction. The electronic full locker locks the axle shafts together and is only meant for off road and slow speeds. I went...

    What's under insulated cover?

    Is it belt driven or gear driven? Cannot see enough of it to tell.

    What's under insulated cover?

    Just wondering... On the generation 3 EcoDiesel, front passenger side of the engine... What is under the insulated cover?
