    Locking tabs for fuel connectors

    I did some searches looking for the fuel quick connector parts but must not have the right terms. I'm installing a new in tank lift pump and trying to find the little plastic / nylon locking tabs for the fuel hose quick connectors. The local Mopar parts store says they don't have/sell them...

    New bolts when changing 5.9 CR injectors?

    Looking for input regarding re-using vs new bolts when changing injectors. I've read some comments on the web which suggest using new bolts when replacing injectors on CR engines. I don't recall seeing this in factory manuals, but looking for feedback. All my torque tools are fully calibrated...

    ARP Rocker Studs

    I just noticed ARP offers a stud kit for the 5.9/6.7 rockers. What requirement would these be satisfying over the oem bolts?

    Gelled Fuel and Damaged Injectors?

    Number 6 injector coil failed on my 07 5.9 in 2015 at 104,000 miles. I did a full replacement with those miles and used all new Bosch OEMs (0445120238) with new Bosch feed tubes. Filtration was upgraded with Mopar severe duty fuel filter by the tank and a Cat final filter between the OEM filter...

    OEM brake shoes?

    I have to replace my rear rotors and while doing so I am planning to replace the brake shoes. The factory sells a one piece unit with shoes, hardware, & backing plate, as well as shoes without the extra hardware. Aftermarket shoes are much lower cost, but I'd like to know if the oem shoes are...

    Careful with Hawk Superduty pads

    I replaced my front rotors 10 months ago because one of the original pads kissed the rotor before I caught it. Anyway, I decided on new factory rotors for the front, the rears rotors were in great condition so no change there. I spent time cleaning up and properly scuffing up the rear rotors...

    Reliable Android Injector Contribution/Balance Tool?

    I've been searching for recent comments/suggestions on tools that can be used to run injector or cylinder balance/contribution tests on my 5.9. Applications such as Torque Pro, Dashcommand, Car Doctor, etc are mentioned along with Bluetooth adapters such as Kiwi II or III, BAFX, ELM 327, etc...

    R&R Front Pinion Hub Sleeve on AAM 9.25 Axle?

    There appears to be quite a few sources on how to replace the pinion seal on our 9.25 AAM front axles but I haven't found much on how to remove the wear sleeve from the hub. AAM sells the sleeve, but so far I have not found much on how to safely remove the old sleeve and get the new one back on...

    Hub bearing from Napa - BRG BR930507 vs PGB PBR930507 - where from?

    In the process of looking for new hub bearings and found Napa offers two options of what appears to be different SKF bearings ($304 vs $184). The Proformer is the cheaper unit. Because one is significantly more than the other, I have to believe the cheap one is from China, and then Rockauto...

    Upgraded front DS w/new ubolt yoke?

    Has anyone went this route in replacing their front driveshaft? - Comes with new pinion yoke: http://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/p3450_dodge_ram_1350_cv_front_driveshaft_fits_2003_and_newer_ram_2.html#photo I greased my front DS religiously but noticed a buzz in the throttle after hitting certain...

    OEM Brake Rotor Origin?

    I'm replacing pads and rotors after nearly 130k and agree they performed well, however with manufacturers going off shore I am concerned about OEM quality changing (new sources). Too many accountants telling engineers what to do (yes - I work in engineering). Does anyone know where the OEM...

    Non-serrated or knurled ball joints?

    The ball joints on my truck are starting to show their age so I was looking at the current options on the market. It appears most are now all coming with serrations or knurled bodies which I don't want. Even thought Raybestos would come smooth (still showing pictures of smooth bodies), but they...

    Documented Triple Filtration w/Pics, BOM

    Documented Triple Fuel Filtration w/Pics, BOM I snapped pictures as I added the Severe Duty Filter Kit and an extra final filter to my 07 Ram and put it in a PDF file. Thought it might be worth posting as it might help someone looking for information on one way of doing it. The only kit is the...

    Denso 421000-7001 or Dodge 4801313AC on 5.9?

    I've been reading several posts about the 220A Denso alternator which is an option on some 4500/5500 models with 6.7 engines. I'm considering an upgrade, but want to know if anyone with a 3rd gen 5.9 has actually attempted this conversion. So far I have not found it as it appears they are...

    Grid Heater Power Draw Affecting Injectors?

    I'm coming to the conclusion that the grid heater cycling on my 07 5.9 may be impacting the fuel injectors. I've owned the truck for just over 3 years and only notice this during the grid heater cycling as it gets colder outside. Sometimes when the heater kicks in, the fuel injector "fishbites"...

    Late model body on 5.9 Chassis?

    I don't know how difficult this would be or if it is even possible, but if one were to install/swap a late model cab & box on a pre-dpf (5.9 model) chassis which included all the 5.9 wiring / ECM & driveline, how would the model year be determined?

    Fuel Quality in ND / MT?

    We're about to make a 3000+ mile trip and just wanted to get some input on diesel fuel quality across ND and MT. I updated my truck with improved filtration, primarily due to prevention and a couple of bad experiences with water laced biodiesel from BP (MN & IL). Kwik Trip (premium) and Cenex...

    Identification of Real New Bosch injectors?

    I'm struggling to identify injectors sold as new OEM Bosch for my 07 5.9 (0 445 120 238). If they come in bubble wrap in a box with no Bosch name or part number referenced, is there any other way of identifying them? I bought new Bosch injectors years ago for a GM and they came well marked...

    Removal of bracket at back of 5.9 head & #6 injector?

    While removing the injectors in my 07 5.9 I find this bracket held to the back of the head by 2 bolts which needs to be either loosened or removed to properly R&R #6 injector. Does anyone have any suggestions or methods for accessing these bolts? Seems like maybe coming in from the left...

    Safe Clean up of 5.9 Injector Bore?

    Going to R&R injectors on my 07 5.9 and wanted to get some input on proper cleanup of the injector hole in the head & what others have done. I'll rely on a good mirror for the back two due to the cowl, but really looking for input as far as what others have used to make sure no debris is left...
