    Drivers door trim gooey

    Problem solved, (I hope) lol. well I purchased some vinyl decal material (Oracle 651) in a matte black finish. It's the same material decals are made from and should last about 5 to 7 years. So I cleaned the surface if the sticky mounding with denatured alcohol, then cut the adhesive to the...

    2007 RWD 2500 front brake caliper removal.

    I've been trying to level the front end with new coils, spacers and to make it easier I should remove the brake caliper so I don't damage the brake lines. My question is this, shouldn't the two smaller 13mm bolts holding the slider come off without having to remove the caliper bracket? I'm on...

    Lifting a 2500 with RWD

    Hey gang, What's the maximum lift on these front suspensions on a 2500 without causing the upper "A" arm coming in contact with the spring perch ?. I don't want to change out spindles because then I'll need to purchase new wheels with less backspace, just want to do it with new springs and or...

    Drivers door trim gooey

    Absolutely right! I use 303 on everything plastic on the Toy hauler hauler and cross my fingers and hope my plastics don't disintegrate, since I have it stored out in the desert at Parker AZ. Good stuff :)

    Instalation of Geno's Covercraft seat covers.

    Yupp I put the 2 supplied washers and it barely catches, can't go more and still have threads to screw into. I'll give Covercraft or Geno's a call this week to see what they advise.

    Drivers door trim gooey

    I've just owned this truck for a couple months now, not sure if the previous owner used Armor all or something like that. I normally don't put anything on rubber to shine it up, but I had some "Z best" non greasy rubber/plastic treatment to protect against the sun now that were hitting the warm...

    Instalation of Geno's Covercraft seat covers.

    Just got my seat covers from Geno's for my 07 and the 2 seats went fine. The center console is frustrating, there's no identifying marks other than "Made in Mexico" on the two halves and no instructions. I've tried fitting them both ways and seems either way either interferes with the catch on...

    Drivers door trim gooey

    Just noticed on my new 2007 Ram 2500 the rubber coated trim piece right at the bottom of the window is sticky. And when I lean my arm out with the window down I end up with what looks like black grease all down the bottom side of my arm. WTH did Dodge use on these trim pieces? First I thought it...

    Will most EGT probes work on a smarty touch?

    Thanks Topzide, I have a couple calls in to Smarty Support and hoping they will call me back in the next couple days to confirm if there connection will allow me to use what I already have. :)

    Smarty Touch Question(s)

    I didnt even know that I needed this lesson on driving my G56 lol . But my new 07 I just recently purchased has the G56 with a SBC which is kinda crazy since I drive my Dump truck with a 10 spd Road Ranger and then relax on the drive home with the G56 HaHa . Not sure if I'm hurting my Drivetrain...

    Will most EGT probes work on a smarty touch?

    Recently purchased my new 07 with the 5.9 and have already started improving where Dodge left off lol. So I removed the tripple gauge pod off my 2nd gen which had the Autometer EGT and probe and want to put it on the 07. I am also looking at a Smarty touch for this truck instead of the Edge drag...

    Anyone check N.A.D.A values lately?

    I dont see plywood prices coming down anytime soon, maybe it's time for me to retire and not support the thieves who are profiting from these unsubstantiated material costs. I just sold my 2nd gen Dually with 210K miles on it for almost 22K. And the buyers got into a bidding war because they...

    12 volt power source from un-used dash connectors?

    Yeah I think your right, I was at a self serve wrecking yard over the weekend looking for parts on another build (67 nova) but went to the truck section and there were dozens of 2nd gens but no 3rd gens to pick thru.:(

    12 volt power source from un-used dash connectors?

    I dont have all the bells and whistles so there's plenty of vacant space on the dash as you can see. Also I don't know what the previous owner had on his fingers when he would activate or deactivate the A/C compressor button but its ALL gooey and disfigured lol. Is it possible to change our just...
