    U- joints, carrier bearing

    So I'm driving a 13, 3500, 2WD and a 2 piece rear drive shaft.... and sorting out u-joints. I'm having trouble with why there is a 15155X and a 25155X... are these the same part number or what I should say, the same item in 2 different boxes? Or does the 5-155x a common replacement for...

    Just installed a PacBrake kit on my '03 5.9L HO NV5600

    As a retired Pacbrake distributor who has sold many of these units to TDR members I enjoyed your comments. I would only like to add..... after a couple of hundred of miles, and the truck is settling in a cooled down position... go back and tighten the Clamps that connect the exhaust brake...

    Rear View Camera Question

    So I own a 2013 Laramie Longhorn that has been the best Ram I've owned, now maybe close to 15 trucks over the years. I'm now retired. I just rented a new Camary while traveling on business and was amazed at the quality of the rear view camera. So have any of you tried to polish out the...

    Fuse or how are the tail lights powered

    Found the reset from a web site that does repair and return on the TIPM. They suggest a hard reset to save the effort of sending in a good unit.... its the same reset the dealer would do with their test equipment.... BTW my reader couldn't help...

    Average Engine, Oil and trans temps?

    so my 13 3500 Longhorn runs exactly mid gauge on the oil temperature and slightly higher on the transmission temperature.... the only time I see higher water temperatures and transmission temperatures is towing my 5th wheel up a grade, and sometimes on a hot day the cooling fan will cycle going...

    Fuse or how are the tail lights powered

    So I fixed it..... here's the scoop..... I had, by mistake grounded the tail light circuit at the back of the truck.... the tail lights and trailer tail lights went dark and wouldn't come back on..... 90 minutes of pulling every fuse and checking them.... and than posting here...

    Fuse or how are the tail lights powered

    I have checked all the fuses.... and there are no bad fuses.... seems like the TIPM can be reset?

    Fuse or how are the tail lights powered

    Tail lights are not working on 2013 Ram 3500..... can't seem to find a fuse and am wondering if there is a module that controls the tail lights.... The led clearance lights work.... and all other lights.... just no tail lights.... Thoughts...

    gear oil

    I developed a slight shudder as I pulled away from a stop sign turning left or right on a slight incline..... like coming off the freeway onto an overpass.... I at first thought it was the transmission but realized it was only on the turn and not as I pulled through the stop sign.... I...

    Upper Radiator Hose

    Thought I'd share... had the upper hose fail at the Y. had to borrow a tester... my old tester won't connect my modern overflow tank... I called 2 part houses for the upper hose.... both said about $130 and a week away... dealer had it in stock for $175.... I found a dor-man on line (Amazon)...

    2917 w/68rfe trans

    I tow about the same weight... I've never seen the temp that high on my 2013 with the same transmission.... I always use TH and the exhaust brake even when I don't tow.... I don't think I've seen 200 degrees.... I did change the fluids, both the transmission and diff to a full synthetic and...
