    Factory air system used as on board air?

    I just tapped into my system adding another tank and balancing line with a check valve to prevent air from going back into the OEM tank from the steel tank I installed....then I read this thread ‍♂️

    *Help* Popping noise

    I hate when I'm chasing a thread that shows problems similar to mine, and when i get to the end, it's 10 yrs old with no closure. Its a snap on digital, it may be off a bit, but i think after heat cycles, 1/8-1/4 turn is normal. Now for the 2 turns, i hate to say it but on the final round...

    *Help* Popping noise

    Ok, to close this issue up, turns out the passenger side head stud furthest to the rear was loose allowing compression to escape creating the noise. I decided to do a hot retorque to rule that out and it was very loose. I got about an 1/8th of a turn on all studs, except the loose one which...

    *Help* Popping noise

    Just replaced the head gasket; had the head cleaned, magnafluxed, and milled. Used ARP head studs torqued to 135 ft/lbs and all OEM gaskets to include exhaust, intake, crossover tubes and injector seals. Valves were adjusted to .010/.020. It started right up, idled smooth and drove...

    Which Brake Pads?

    This just may be a fantasy of mine; but has anyone found a "dust free" (as dust free as it could be anyway) pad with OEM performance? I'm anal when it comes to my truck being clean...and that brake dust drives me nuts!

    Adding aftermarket camera

    I have no problem with the wiring...I was just thinking that maybe a DPDT switch might work. Its much cheaper than any video switch but wasn't sure if it would work or has been done. Id use it to send power to the rv cam when that feed was selected; the OEM cam would still receive power when in...

    Adding aftermarket camera

    I have the 8N with the back-up cam but I also have a cam on the back of my 5er; I use it to line up with the boat when I tandem tow. Id like to utilize the 5er cam again so I was thinking if I tie into the video feeds on the back of the display, I should be able to use a switch to toggle the...

    Skipping 3rd?

    I havent experienced any of those symptoms... yet. I only have 1500 miles on it... other than when I hooked my trailer to it, its been great. I think it has something to do with the shift parameters while in tow/haul mode because when i tow my light trailer and do not put it in tow/haul mode its...

    Aisin. What were the symptoms that prompted you to reflash?

    Skipping 3rd?

    I noticed when I hook up to the 5er, tow/haul and EB on, the trans will go from 2nd to 4th bypassing 3rd gear. It starts to lug pretty bad at that point so i sink my foot deeper to get it to downshift... anyone experience this?

    Caqpless Fuel Fill pipe on the new 2013 3500 Rams any modifications out here?

    Not only is dirt a concern here, but when I went to fill up after running it through the car wash... there was WATER on the flap! Crabjoe, I like that green plug that came with yours, maybe i'll run over to the dealer and see if maybe they have a discarded one, otherwise i'll give the rubber...

    Get rid of '05 for a new '13???

    Did it, pulled the trigger on a '13 Laramie 3500 SRW longbed 4x4 with the Aisin trans... All I can say is wow!... like a lexus truck! I am having a difficult time finding a 5th wheel hitch for the already installed tow package. If I can ever find one, maybe ill see how she pulls. Already, even...

    Get rid of '05 for a new '13???

    Thanks for the info Joe. I read about all the upgrades in TDR issues but I was under the impression that the Aisin trans would only be available in the DRW models; glad to see it is in select SRW as well. The trans is one of the main reasons I am looking to upgrade; 4" lift, 35" tires w/3. 73's...
