My truck was sent in for the identical issue. Gear whine between 48 and 52 mph with power applied. No sound on coast. The dealer verified the issue and ordered a new gear set and rear drive bearing kit for the repair. I got the truck after one week. It is much better with only a very faint whine...

Very important if you need a tow with a disabled truck. You can't disable the park setting with the engine not running with out this emergency park release. I also found my quick jacks could not safely lift my truck due the lifting also involved pulling the truck forward about a foot. If you are...

You need to have the dealer check this out. On my ram I have disconnected the battery several times to install AMP power steps and the radio never asked for a code after be reconnected. The code should be retained and associated with your truck automatically. If the radio was installed after the...

I think the wipers should not start automatically on each start up with rain detected. The auto start on moisture detection would activate in car washes that would start the wipers and mess up the wipers and possibly the wiper motor when the big rollers of the car wash roll over the vehicle...

You exceeded my expectations of a reply. Very thorough and well done. I am considering a teardrop rig but will be almost exclusively camping and traveling alone. After your explaining the reasoning of your decision I must now reconsider. My first RV was an Apache hard sided pop up camper in...

As I recall my MX4 cover came with a pack of spacers to tighten up the clearance to the side rails. With my standard bed the spacers were not needed. These spacers should be able to tighten the width from the 6 clamp points to 5mm clearance with the cover rails, that is 2.5 - 3mm each side...

Nice looking trailer. Can you provide additional details such as model and sleep capacity along with the price for such a trailer. Thanks

Actually I didn't expect the gas prices to remain around $3.60 a gallon in California. As of now it is over $4.20 for 87 octane. The voters spoke and approved increased taxes on Gas and DMV fees. Must be all those that don't work and count on the gov to support them. Call it a CA penalty...

I will try to get photo for you tomorrow. Most of the photos I have seen on this thread are hard to understand because they are taken from different angles. I will try to get a photo looking from the front to the canister and linkage if that shows what I am talking about.

Hard to tell from your pictures due to orientation of the shot. It appears you might be way off on the position of the canister. Looking at it it appears to be touching the frame or cab floor. This would cause vibrations you feel. My suggestion is to look at the canister position on the right...

On my installation I have a little less than 1/4 inch clearance. As long as there is no contact when the bolt is tight and the step fully retracted you are golden. The vibration is not related to the steps if there is no physical contact. In my installation I saw the contact and adjusted for it...

I will be following your evaluation of the quad cab storage unit. I called them in January and was told they were working on this unit.

Hi DM-SC, You are right on, I figured I would wait till today for the mail before going to the post office. As it turns out it was exactly what you said might happen. I am happy to report the check was delivered to my mailbox. In my area I frequently get other people's mail delivered by mistake...

I just got notification my package was delivered in the mailbox on Friday based on the tracking number. No delivery was made so now I will need to visit the post office and find out if they know where the mail was delivered. I have a locking mailbox so it looks like the check was never...

This. As I recall the bolt required a 17mm socket. Yes, the boards still make a non metallic thud sound as they close quickly. I liken the sound to the landing gear down before landing in a jet liner. Not an entirely bad sound. I like it as confirmation everything is retracted before I drive away.

Check your driver side near the front powered link mechanism. When I installed my kit I found the board made contact with the vibration cancellation device that is the black drum attached to the frame. When the drum is powered it could actually be adding vibration to the truck when in contact...

I have a very similar problem with my Laramie. The only difference my speed is 50 plus or minus 2 mph when the whine occurs. Like you this is only under moderate or heavy throttle and does not happen with very light throttle or coasting. Doesn't matter what gear the trans is in, this is vehicle...

My Laramie with the 3.92 gears has been making a rear differential gear whine under power at 50 MPH. Doesn't matter what gear the transmission is in. Going up a hill it is particularly noticeable and has become louder as my miles are now 1350. I'm pretty sure it's the differential gears as this...

I can appreciate your frustration. All of us presumably made this purchase to help protect our new trucks from the effects of oil being passed to the intake system and eventually causing carbon build up. This should not be an issue until the truck is operated with many more miles than you or I...

Just a guess, if you are on the east side of the country and the item has been shipped you are likely at least 5 days behind those of us that live in the west. This item is shipped from Reno NV by UPS Ground. I live with 400 miles so my shipping time was 2 days. Same thing for me, it took 7...
