    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) FASS 95 filters

    The 95 uses a much smaller filter that the 150, I wish i would have know this from the start! I would have spent the extra few bucks for the 150, Im gonna talk to my vendor tomorrow about it and see about buying a 150 and selling my 95, I love the pump but I'm not gonna mail order filters forever!

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) FASS 95 filters

    So I bought a Fass 95 series fuel system last fall, thinking it would be the best thing for lift pump replacement. Well little did I know, the filters are only available through Fass, (or dealers of Fass) so the other day when I punctured a filter I was stranded, looked all over to find a...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Brand New Member and CTD Owner

    You have already bought the best upgade for your truck by becoming a TDR member! Its is money well spent! But anyways, I second the fuel pressure gauge! It is a requirement on a VP44 truck! Looking into an upgraded lift pump is a real good idea too they could have saved me lots of cash if I...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) NV4500 2wd to 4wd

    Just picked up a 97 2500 parts truck with a 5 speed in it, would really like to swap it into my 02, I know the output housing is going to be changed, but what about the output shaft? would the upgraded full splined mainshaft for a 4x4 application solve the problem? Also, my 02 has a DLD transfer...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission paint job!

    Not to rub it in but ive had my truck since 02 and have washed it maybe twice, and only with a hot water psi washer, it has been coated ing hydraulic oil, mud, fuel, brake fluid(oops!), everything doing heavy equipment road service can throw at it and the paint looks great. No wax soap or...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission thoughts on a flat bed

    I just took mine off, spent about a week building it just to my liking, total was about 1200 in materials including the lights and toolboxes. I just didnt like the look and the rest of the truck is too nice to be degraded to a flatbed. My original box was trashed but about a week ago i found a...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Fuel Pressure Gauge

    I have the Isspro fp gauge in the genos steering pod, It looks great but the gauge is slightly to bulky for the mount and it doesnt fit quite the way i wanted it to, other than that I love the setup

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Best way to swap Auto to stick

    I'm just south of Portland, ME. Thats a real good price on a rebuilt unit, but what does he charge for a core, I dont have one so I'm either goona look around for a cheap core or just pay the core charge. You just installed the SB hyds and DD right, how do you like the clutch? I plan on...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Best way to swap Auto to stick

    I would love a six speed, I just got the impression that they were like twice the price, 3200, compared to 1700 for the 5 speed, I guess I'm just gonna have to see what I can get a deal on

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Best way to swap Auto to stick

    SNOKING... aren't the six speeds about twice the price of an NV-4500? I have had a few nv-4500s in my off-road rigs and such, found them to be dead reliable, can the same be said for the six speeds? I havent heard the best about the NV-5600, but thats just my limited experience with them.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Can't buy it.. Build it (S400)

    This may be a stupid question, but are all Rams fitted with a T-3 manifold? If they are would it make sense to fab up a new manifold with a T-4 outlet, that would likely drop egts? I dont know if it would be worth it or even be possible to fab a manifold that would withstand the heat. Just a...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Best way to swap Auto to stick

    No I haven't, not many modded trucks up here in Maine, really only a handfull that I can think of. I dont mind the auto, just prefer a stick, I think it would suit me better for towing, and possibly sledpulling, if that ever happens round here I started the process of collecting the parts for...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Best way to swap Auto to stick

    good reason to swap to a D-80 :-) I'll probably just go without cruise for a while, looks like getting the stick under the trucks gonna cost some bucks, but I think its well worth it.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Best way to swap Auto to stick

    you kept you ECM, and PCM, but lost the output speed sensor on the back of the auto, I could probably find a tone ring and mount it to the trans output on the 5 speed, that way I get to keep the cruise, just a thought, did you have to shorten the rear shaft of lengthen it?

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Best way to swap Auto to stick

    I went to the dealer for warranty purposes, Chrysler wouldn't pay for the transmission unless the dealer installed it... Long story. the dealer up here sucks, been there done that, sick of having the truck there for a week for a minor issue. Took them three weeks to put a transmission in, should have been...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Best way to swap Auto to stick

    I would like to sell the transmission, t-case, coolers lines, coolers, trans temp gauge, etc because it all has only a few thousand miles on it, I had the trans and coolers/lines replaced at the dealership. I should have saved my money and bout the stick instead, but its done now. If i could sell all...

Ran down to Napa, got a pan gasket and atf+3 50 dallars and an hour later i was up and running. Today, had an appointment at 11, got there, noticed atf pouring outa I cooler line. I def...
