    Direct Fit short headers

    I struggled with quality control, material failure, and design challenges (leaks and hardware access) with two sets of AFE shorties. I would strongly recommend staying with cast iron manifolds unless you plan to do a full exhaust system with long tube headers and a dyno tune. Otherwise it is...

    Sunroof Lubrication

    How long is too long for a sunroof to close or open? Is there an acceptable range? Mine takes about 7-8 seconds and it just seemed like it was more lethargic than when the truck was new. Its a little better now that I lubricated the tracks. I first used some lithium spray grease but found...

    Rear speakers static with heated seats

    I’ve noticed static(radio on or off) in my rear ceiling speakers(HK 12”) Today I found that it was related to the rear heated seats being activated. If I turn off the heated rear seats, then the sound goes away. Anyone else ever have this issue?

    Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT Review

    I remember getting mine and thinking how quiet they were compared to even the factory Falkens. Great tire.

    Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT Review

    I have 50,000mi on mine(285/75R18). Been a great tire and I am tempted to get another set. Discount tire said i could get another 10,000 miles out of them but I‘m not sure ill cut it that close. I may look at the new Falken At4w for the snow flake rating but they sure are heavy.

    sub-RAM-ine 1500 Spotted in FL

    I‘d hate to see the truck in the linked video after a few years when that rust starts forming. Note to self, don‘t buy trucks from FL site unseen.

    Weird whistling noise after I turn the truck off

    The capacitor is an interesting thought. I’ve had my amplifier replaced under warranty for what I thought was ANC related issues but I still get the whistle/whine. Do you ever hear clicking/static emanating from the upper rear speakers in the headliner? I do and cannot replicate or trigger the...

    Tried using a zf 8hp transmission pan...oops

    I just replaced the pan and fluid in my wife’s Grand Cherokee with a kit from Blauparts which included Ravenol(German) ATF. Great kit all in all. Ram 1500 transmission fluid kit My Ram is due for a fluid change now and this PPE pan and filter have peaked my interest. My concern was that the...

    LDC2335's Audio Build (CDT, Infinity, Sundown, Sound Deadening, PAC)

    Weird. I disconnected my ANC wires at the plug. Maybe give that a try. My upper rear speakers(factory) often have a static/radio frequency interference sound that didn’t go away even with a new amplifier under warranty. I’d love for OEMs to focus on building the best quality vehicles, not...

    2023 rebel lunar

    I was thinking that about Iraq! They’ve gone from IED’s on the side of the roads to limited edition Rebels. You’re welcome Iraq.

    Air Ride Suspension Lifespan

    I towed a 32’ travel trailer(rented for a week from RV share) and the owner had a steel spring ecodiesel DT that he said was white knuckles with the trailer. My truck towed it like a boss with the Hemi and the air ride. You’ll enjoy it that setup. I also downsized my original 20” wheels to...

    Air Ride Suspension Lifespan

    I’ve helped a friend replace air bags and struts on his Mercedes GL 450 and it was pretty straightforward. Those systems, like the Ram 1500 DS used atmospheric air supply for inflating the air springs. That CAN lead to issues with moisture and contamination which increase risk to system...

    I put those in my dash a month ago. The infinity’s sound great. Magnet is huge compared to oem.

    Rear window leak

    Looks like it’s callled a potato and a pahtato.

    Rear window leak

    The large box appears to be referred to as a receiver for the keyless system. I don’t have a part number so I can verify 100%, only from images. I used the wrong terms. What I was referring to are antennas not hubs.
