I camped in the Shenandoah mountains a couple years ago and there were Chipmunks running around my campsite. A couple months after returning home, I went to change the air filter and found what was probably 2 cups full of acorns in the bottom of the air box.

Make sure you tighten the plastic nozzle plenty tight when you put it on the bottle. I thought it was tight the first time I used it but wasn't and leaked. I really set up on it the next time and had no more leaks. The way the bottle and nozzle are designed makes it hard to get started and...

I believe it was sometime early last year that I got the recall for the reversed harness connectors on the temp sensors for the DPF. It seems to me that the regens are much less often since they got that corrected in my truck, 2013. Now, something that's concerned me about this though is just...

These are the Mopar flaps on mine.

I really like mine. I tow a TT, so pin box issues don't apply so far. There's a lot of threads on the cummins forum and this one to concerning this. Quite a few people feel that there will be side rail issues with a lot of 5'ers. The way around this is to use a Reese Sidewinder pin box. It moves...

You should sell these. Ebay or Amazon. You might make a few dollars.

My truck's exhaust sound also changes during regen. It may be partially engaging exhaust brake, which changes the pitch of the turbo blades thus the change is sound. I think this is to help raise the exhaust temperature to clean the soot from the DPF. Extra fuel is to help raise the exhaust...

This is a post I made in another forum. Hopefully will help someone. I just put a set of the Mopar OEMs for fender flares on mine today. Install was not to bad. Lined up pretty good. Really well made. The Rams Head on the back ones I like. Edit: Pics attached...

Are you concerned about the grease slinging up on the disc pads or rotors? Has that ever happened? Can it?

Just read this on a thread over at cummins forum. You might want to try this next time. I haven't had a chance to do it myself yet. Will try tomorrow. While in 4x4, press and hold the traction control button for about 5 seconds. You'll get a message on your EVIC that traction control and...

Shouldn't that disengage when you step on the throttle though? I live on flat land mostly and really don't get to see it do its thing much even though I have it turned on.

Wow, I would be ticked off too. It must be the torque management over-doing its job. Hard for me to see it not having the power to do this. I just got back from a trip to the Shenandoah mountains pulling my 8,000 pound travel trailer up those mountains like it wasn't there. My local service...
