    For your information I have looked through the paper one in my truck today, and also searched the PDF one on my computer. Damned smart mouth little ****

    Turning lights off

    OK, feeling a bit dumb here. Went to a drive thru Christmas light show. How in the heck do we turn all the lights off on these damned trucks, 2019 1500 Laramie. Tried everything I could think off even played with that damned electric park brake. It turned them off for a second, then right back on.

    2019 5th Gen - Will Not Change to 4WA or 4WD.

    Interesting, I haven't had to work on mine so can't help you. I'll be watching this thread now.

    Nuetral disconnect lever

    If the rf hub is fried and your truck has to be towed don't worry about it. One, use a carry deck wrecker then can and will winch it right on even if the wheels don't turn, no big deal. Two, a conventional front or rear tow wrecker with a set of dollys. Either way your tires and wheels don't...

    Nuetral disconnect lever

    I went with the auto actuation so it is exercised frequently, I don't recall how the pedal to apply is connected. But in the wonderful NorthEast and all the ice melters they apply to the roads an occasionally applied mechanical brake will corrode and hang up or freeze in the winter. By using...

    Nuetral disconnect lever

    Use a boost pack to provide power, turn off the auto park brake in settings, then I'd put the transfer case in neutral rather then mess with the transmission neutral.

    Calling All Patriot Blues!

    Nice and a nice option linup, I like seeing you keep the bench seat and 18" wheels.

    ESC nearly killed me !

    I believe the wheel speed sensor is in the front hub. I would look at the other wheel speed sensors first not the one putting on the brake. The best thing would be a scanner and software that could monitor the frequency the wheel sensor are outputtings while driving. If one is shifting around or...

    Eco Diesel in cold weather?

    When I had my ecodiesel it worked good in the cold temperatures. I did add winter additives to the fuel just as I do in all my diesels. I also used the winter front much of the time I saw much faster warmups and better mileage.

    Dealership forgot to torque drain plug after oil change - truck broke down on highway.

    When you saw an oil puddle on your driveway did you pop the hood and check the oil level???? Why in the heck would you drive your truck when you should have know it was low on oil??? If the plug was missing it fell out after leaving your driveway. Yes, the individual who changed your oil...

    4WD Off Road

    I have always been a fan of red tractors, I grew up on IH red and Allis Chalmers orange, with a bit of Ford blue thrown in for measure. There are a few green ones on the farm now but I still prefer red ones, I also have a blue New Holland I just picked up for another driveway tractor.

    4WD Off Road

    That is my driveway 14-16 degrees of slope or 24-25% our vehicles see it every day; studded snows and fingers crossed at times. Here's a video from a few years ago going down ,

    4WD Off Road

    It was impressive in that test. However put that truck on a 25-26% slope on snow and ice and that system doesn't seem to work near that well.

    4WD Off Road

    I am impressed by how well it did in those tests, I don't see the same results in many situations, those are very steep and hard pulls.

    4WD Off Road

    With all of your roostering and prancing around you aren't proving anything. BLD, Brake Limited Differential is a very poor limited slip or diff lock from what I have observed on many RAM pickups over the years. You really want to test it get yourself some 3 foot long pieces of 2x6 or similar...

    Tire chains

    It is a shame that these nice trucks from RAM have such P --- Poor Engineering and design. A simple thing like chains and transfer cases that can be worked.

    found a way to try and prevent catalytic converter theft

    Not a single soul has mentioned the best way, well I guess one mentioned a good way. Remove all these catalytic converters. I'd prefer a different method myself. Change the laws to stop protecting the damned thief's, then add a motion sensor and a handy 12 gauge eradicate a few scumbags and...
