Good morning, Soon it will be brake pad change time and this question is directed to you who change their own and have had good luck using a specific brand and type. Raybestos makes a blue box PG series that is a medium duty pad and is easy on the rotors, not a cheap pad mind you, but med...

Ah yes, the correct amount of R134A does wonders! 30-32 inches at 65* F. and all is well. Temp measured at the center vent now is 52*. Thanks to all for the timely advice, Richard

Jhoughton, I have read that one cannot add freon successfully without the compressor clutch engaged so the compressoor is running and compressing. This being so, I would seem to only have that 4 second span of time to inject freon. The freon R134A kit that I have comes with a hose assy...

CBeeman, Take note of the post by myself just two down from this post with the exception that I just actually measured the temp. of the ac air coming out of the vents and came up with 75* and not 80-85 that I estimated. I think that all the info is in that post. I`d be quite interested in...

Thanks,CBEEMAN, now on to some diagnosis. Richard

Hi Again, My AC works only very marginally. Here`s the lowdown. Truck is idling fully warmed up with the AC blower on high and temp knob turned all the way cold. The compressor is activating the clutch for about 4 seconds and then disengaging for about 5 seconds. I have a psi gauge on the...

Hi! A simple short question. There is a Schrader type valve to the left of the rad. cap that I think is the low side valve. It is a smaller size than the other one that is located down next to the lower rad. hose. Probably the high side valve. Is all this assuming correct? Oh yes, I have a...

Ok, I read the thread. First off, my rig does not have oem factory fog lights. However, under the hood, in the fuse box assy. on the drivers side fenderwell there are two sopckets labeled: fog lamp and fuel tank #1 and fog lamp and fuel tank#2. Both of these sockets are vacant. Perhaps a jumper...

Hi all, some months ago I purchased the Summit wiring harness. Installed the harness and immediately found that my high beam blue dash indicator was wired so that when the lights were on high beam that the indicator was off, and when the lights were on low beam that the blue dash indicator was...

Good news! I took the truck down to a local repair shop that specializes in Mopar`s, including CTD, and he found that the return lines were leaking, along with another neoprene line that is down in the same area. Yippeeee! He will repair and fix along with a transmission svc. , this monday. Thanks...

Good morning everyone, thanks for the helpful info. I took a little time under the truck looking in the areas that all of you talked about and there seemed a lot of raw fuel being leaked around the bottom of the fuel filter, yet the upper sides and top of the filter was dry. There is a small...

Just recently my 97 CTD has started dropping fuel on the pavement! It appears to be coming from the left side of the motor. Probably along the rear end of the injection pump to the fuel filter area. Almost at the same time she has taken to starting in the morning with a little difficulty. Yet...

Just had a set of the BFG`S put on my 3500 dually and find them to be very quiet and worth the money! Richard

Thanks for all the replies. Now that I think about it, there certainly is a difference in altitude in some of my towing areas. The plateau that Klamath Falls is on is about 4500`and Palm Springs is about 250' or so. In fact most of that part of eastern Oregon is about 4000'-4500'. Probably...

Forgot to mention that it is a CTD, indeed!

Hello, I just returned from southern California. My truck is a 97 2. wd 3500 dually with auto. I was towing a Wilderness 25J trailer that weighs in at 6500 lbs. wet. Initially down in the Palm Springs area my rig was averaging 14 m. p. g at 65 mph. As I headed north, mileage dropped off somewhat...

Hi, I have a 97 3500 dually and have had trouble accessing the inner rear valve stems in the past. What kind of stem extensions or adapters are being successfully used to make this easier? Thanks, Richard

Wildmanben, New to this game, could you please explain about the nut, where it is, and what function does it have? Info like this is very valuable!Thanks, RALee
