The transmission problem never causes it to reduce speed or power It only locks in 4th when slowing down after you have reached highway speed. nothing is really noticeable other than the 4 shows up on the dash and you cant hardly take off again..I forgot which codes other than something like wrong...

My 2010 3500 single rear wheel 68rfe auto trans is locking in 4th gear and sometimes its acting like its shifting into neutral between shifts, not just a couple hundred rpm flare but redlining type . If I shut it off and restart it it will usually unlock out of gear and take off normally until...

What brand and how much was it new

I have had a 95, 01, 02, and still have my 02, 06 and a 10. My 95 went 317000 miles and averaged 19 miles per gallon, by way of standard cab and two wheel drive with a stick. I dont miss the days of lift pump replacements and brake jobs on a regular basis. Sometimes our memories fade and are not...

I have been trying to get the e-brake to work better on my 01 dually. I noticed when my wife pushes the e brake down that the passenger side cable will not move at the backing plate. It only moves where the cables split maybe a 1/4 inch. The drivers side will move the lever a bunch at the...

The ball joints are in. What a pita. Ended up getting a 10 inch press from my local dodge dealer to press them in, I broke oreillys 6 inch press bushing that goes over the stud, just caved the top of right in. The botom ones went in slick, the uppers I had to reset the press several times...

My truck wouldnt start one day after i had pulled up to a job site. I started lookinga round under the steering column covers and found the main power wire was pulled apart at the main connection by the steering column. I just made me a jumper and went around the connector to make the wire...

I got around to installing my ball joints tonight, what a pita. After i installed them i noticed the upper ball joint stud will move in and out of the ball joint housing about an inch. Anybody notice this? Wonder why this is. Maybe in case the ball joints dont bottom out in their taper at the...

2nd gen, Pre 24 valve. If you are considering fuel mileage at all its by far the best truck in my humble opinion. My 94 2 wheel drive got better mileage. Usually 17 plus and somtimes right at 20. It was also the most reliable. Turned it up at 125000 miles and drove untll it had 317000 miles...

JMcCoy I wouldnt say my carrier just popped out, I had to get my boy ( 14 year old) to help me pry it out. Once I got some good leverage by him holding the ring gear from turning at the top i was able to pry it out by getting inside the ring gear with a litttle pry bar at the bottom and it came...

I just knocked it out, it was part of the seal. What a waste of time agonizing over this deal. Live and learn i guess.

Here is a pic of the drivers side seal, I already have taken out the rubber center section. The other pic is of my shop fubared becauce of this project. Wrenches and cuss words have been flying today. Any help with the seal pic and if I need to take out whats left would be greatly appreciated.

I am not sure if this link will work. I dont know how to link something, just copied and pasted it. See the seal 3rd from left. Mine has that cone on it and it is very snug in the axle tube. I have tapped pretty hard on it and it dont want to budge. I am pretty certain the cone is part of the...

Kenny. I think you might be right. The outboard end of it is thin, then it tapers toward the diameter of the seal, likes its designed to help you get the axle thru the seal without tearing it. Do I remove it or leave it. Was it part of the original oem seal. will my new seals which are coming...

I have just tore down the whole front end on my 2001 3500 4x4. Before starting this project I am pretty sure i read every post ever concerning replacing the ball joints. Since I am in this far I thought I would replace the axle seals since the drivers side has been leaking for at least a year. I...

I was just wondering what the average miles per engine hour:) is. I was reading the manual on my new to me 06 and seen the hour meter info. My truck has 34000 miles and 1030 hours on it, this averages 33 miles per hour. Does it more than likely indiacate my truck was primarily used in town or...

on my 07 its around 20 give or take just a little becauce of the sparay in bed liner and bed rail caps. On my 01 it is 19 give or take for the same reasons. Just measured this the night before last. Put a straight edge over rails and measured to bed floor. I am trying to figure out how many...

I realize moving the spacers to the top will lower the overall bed height and not give me any more clearance. But I will be able to adjust the goosenesk down to the point the trailer is back to level, whick will get me a little more clearance.

I had some of the same trouble on my 01. I had bent the steering stabilizer shock and it was binding. It was more noticable when cold.

old thread, new question, please advice I just got my 06 drw 3500, was measuring bed height, tailgate height etc. to set up for towing my drag car trailer, dont want to ding up my box like my 01 The 07 is about 1-1 1/2 inches taller than the 01 at the top of the bed rails. The box is 1 inch...
