I have a Dodge Magnum 5. 9L V8 (from a 2000 Dodge Durango) that was swapped into my 2000 Jeep Wrangler TJ back in 2006. It took me a while to figure out what was specifically wrong, but about 5,000 miles ago, I suffered the dreaded plenum plate/gasket failure and got a lot of crankcase oil into...

I've got a swapped-in Dodge Magnum 5. 9L V8 gas engine in my 2000 Jeep Wrangler TJ and I am about to do the plenum plate upgrade to my factory intake manifold. While I am doing this work, I plan to replace the thermostat. I could of course just go with the same 195º thermostat that the...

Wanted ... Mopar Performance P4876049 Intake Manifold Gasket Set (for Dodge Magnum 5. 2L/5. 9L V8 engines)

Does anyone know if a Dodge Magnum 5. 2L or 5. 9L V8 has a knock sensor? I have a 1999 Dakota and have looked at the engine section of my 1999 factory service manual and I can't see any mention of a knock sensor, so that makes me think there isn't one, but I just wanted to check to make sure.

My Jeep Wrangler TJ is just about set up for flat towing behind my Dodge 3500 and one essential item remains ... getting a hitch extension bar to accommodate towing when our Outfitter Apex 8 slide-in truck camper is on board. Since I am essentially a towing novice, is there any rule of thumb...

I should have connected the dots earlier, but I have been smelling the sweet smell of antifreeze when I start up for about the last couple or three weeks (and my '07 3500 is not a daily driver). I did finally isolate it to the exhaust, but I don't get any of the classic white smoke coming out of...

Let me start this out with "I hate mud". :rolleyes: I have been wheeling for the better part of 40 years and while I know that there are "mudders" out there who love the stuff, I just prefer rocks, dirt, sand, and essentially dry conditions when off-roading. While I obviously know that muddy...

I realize that this is not a question that specifically pertains to a diesel equipped Dodge, but I thought it was related enough to ask it anyway. Basically, I need to get some suggestions on how to remove a stripped-out NV242 transfer case fill plug. The quick lube place that has been...

For my smaller 4x4 vehicles over the years (mostly Jeeps), I have always had some form of front sway bar disconnects to allow for more suspension flex and articulation when off-road. With my '07 3500, I would like to do the same thing. However, after looking high and low on the Internet, I have...

I participated in a recent group purchase on an RV associated forum for Buckstop truck bumpers, so I thought I would post up some photos of the installed front bumper on my '07 3500 truck. Before: After: I went with the Buckstop Baja front bumper with a Warn 16,500 lb winch, PIAA 580...

Here is part 2 ... ------------------------ What goes up must come down, so here is a shot of yours truly and Steve coming down the backside of Murphy Hogback: Here's an “advertisement shot” for Outfitter campers with Candlestick Tower in the background: For the second big obstacle, here...

Since there are 19 photos in my off-road trip write-up (and TDR only allows 10 per post), I will split this into two parts. Also, my upfront apologies for this not being an all Dodge off-road excursion, so be forewarned that there were two Ford F-350 diesels along. :eek: Here is part 1...

Here is part 2: ----------------------- And here are some test fit shots for the new crossmember showing the grade 8 bolts I used to affix each end bracket to the frame rails (which I had to drill & tap the frame rail sides for): Here is a shot of the rear passenger side fuel tank...

I am a new member and didn't realize that there is a 10 image limit per post. Since I have 20 photos in my write-up, I will split it up into two parts. So here is part 1: ---------------------- As background, I had a 2007 Dodge Power Wagon with a 5. 7L HEMI gasser that did not work out...

I'm new to the board (but I have been meaning to join for some time). Anyway, I have a Buckstop front bumper and Warn winch on order and should be receiving those within a couple of weeks to install on my '07 3500. I did a search on the forum and found some info on folks installing Buckstop...
