If your coming up in summer and using commercial RV parks, you best get reservations. The RV tours and caravans book in large numbers when they bring a group up here with big blocks of sites set aside and that can make few available to the public. And you may want to travel late in evening as...

Had the truck put back in warm shop over night. This time they got a 12 Volt reading and the dash temp gauge was 55F. As Kirwin mentioned later, the rear fuel filter heater does have 12+ Volts in Run position and not ambient temp related. Easy to test by unplugging the rear filter plug about 6"...

Just checked the transmission dipstick on my 2014 with Aisin. The handle says the same as yours and it has hash marks for oil level, no holes. I had the rear fuel filter heater turned on, could not get 12 volt reading after dealer turned the computer set to on until we parked it in the cold, the shop...

I a few weeks ago I just came thru -35F to -43F up the Yukon and into Alaska, there of course all fuel was #1 this time of year. For those not running fuel mixed for low temps, wouldn't it be much better to just use some anti-gelling additive such as Power Service, etc. Guess I don't...

Depends on body configuration, engine and transmission. I have SRW 3500 CC 4x4 LB Longhorn Cummins/Aisin and it is rated tow 16650 and pay load 4120 lbs This pdf link allows easy comparsions: http://www.ramtrucks.com/assets/towing_guide/pdf/2014_RAM.3500.Towing.Specs.pdf

The GVW, Payload, Towing ratings for the 2014's is here. The SRW varies quite a bit depending on configuration. http://www.ramtrucks.com/assets/towing_guide/pdf/2014_RAM.3500.Towing.Specs.pdf

Thanks. That thread was interesting. Interesting tho was they had to raise the level 5th to keep tailgate clearances once hitched up to a SRW :( I'm hoping someone with a Montana 5th brand hooked up can give some clearances on a 2013-2014 SRW 3500 (which is higher than a DRW) since the level...

I am looking at a 2014, 3500 4x4 cc LB SRW Cummins/Aisin with 18'' wheels (12300 gvw) to tow my Montana 5th (34') using a B&W companion hitch. Anyone have a similar setup with a Montana 5th and what bedrail clearance was there. Rambody builder list the rail at 59" and suppose that is an empty...

If you use Firestone or Toyo brands at 624 revolutions / mile versus your existing 634. 15 tires, then your effective axle ratio will be changed 1. 6% or will be about a 4. 03:1 ratio. The difference between a 3. 73 to a 4. 10 is 9. 66%.

Here is some data. Dually Tire size 235/80R-17E Circumference 99. 91” http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/tirecalc.php?tires=235-80r17 3:42 ratio = 2349 revolutions/mi @ 65 mph. 3:73 ratio = 2561 revolutions/mi @ 65 mph. 4. 10 ratio = 2821 revolutions/mi @ 65 mph. If my math is close...

Under Standard Equipment for your CC 4x4 LB Aisin the order form it is listed as standard and the code is ANTI-SPIN DIFFERENTIAL REAR AXLE (DSA) and the 11. 50 REAR AXLE (DRQ), PAGE: 40 2014 3500 CREW CAB 4X4 form.

"All of the 2013 3500 frames have the pockets welded to the siderails for the 5th wheel mounts,... " Does this then apply to SRW 3500 models so they can take the below bed mounts?
