    Grid heater disconnect

    I have a 2008 truck and living in California, I decided to disconnect the positive cable at the battery to the solenoid that operates the grid heater after a friend of mine experienced engine problems after inhaling some slag from the nut connection. I read to start the truck immediately to...

    A/C compressor leak

    A few weeks ago I noticed an accumulation of yellowish looking oil on the bottom of the A/C compressor. I think its been leaking for awhile as the A/C now isn't cold but cool so it's probably leaking the refrigerant as well. The leak appears to be right where the 2 halves of the compressor case...

    Tire Questions

    Sorry if this has discussed before but I couldn't find much information on the subject. I'm currently running 17 inch rims on a 3rd generation truck and haul a 3000lb camper most of the time. A few years back both Toyo and Nitto had numerous E rated tires that had higher load indexes than 121 or...

    Camper shell wiring

    Does anyone know how to wire up the third brakelight on a camper shell that I bought used and put on a 2008 Ram. Which wires(colors) do I hook into? Also what's the best way to wire up the interior dome lights without running miles of wire? Thanks!

    Jeep Trailer

    I'm looking for a quality trailer to tow my Jeep. It will be a bumper pull and tandem axle unit. A toolbox in front would be nice along with tie downs for the Jeep and maybe the ability to add sides if I needed to use it for hauling other stuff. What are you guys using and what could I expect to...

    Chirping noise from Dash?

    I'm hoping someone has had this problem and they were able to fix it. I have an annoying chirping noise that seems to come from the dash area directly in front of the driver. It only happens when I hit jarring type bumps(washboard roads are the worst) I can't identify the exact location as it is...

    Fuel Tank Replacement

    I'm thinking of replacing the OEM tank on my truck with a 56 gallon aftermarket tank from Transfer Flow. They will do the install as well. Will this installation be legal in California? Will the dealer mess with my warranty? Does the new tank mess with any of the computer information or overhead...

    Toolbox+Bed Reinforcement Kit

    I have a Weatherguard Saddle Box installed on the rails of my bed and I just read a thread that talks about installing a toolbox reinforcement kit to prevent damage to the bed. Are they serious! I have had this box in previous trucks(Fords, sorry!) with no problems. Is this necessary or are they...

    Which Bumper?

    I'm looking at replacing both the bumpers on the beast with something that will actually protect the truck. I've narrowed my choices to Reunel or Buckstop. The Buckstop Quote is $700 cheaper(includes shipping) than Reunel. I could pick them up if I go Reunel and they will install them. I'm...

    Another speaker question????

    Sorry to be a pest but I have one more stereo question for the experts. I have a 2008 Ram with the Infinity system with 7 speakers, single disk cd player with the amplifier behind the glove box. Does anyone know the impedence of the current stock speakers(2 ohms? 4ohms? 8 ohms?) and has anyone...

    Front speaker wires

    Does anyone know the front door speaker wire colors of the front speakers in a 2008 Ram with the 7 speaker Infinity system and which are positive and negative. I'm going to tap them for an amp and subwoofer install. I removed the door panels and the speaker isn't labeled positive or negative...

    Installing Subwoofer

    Calling all audio experts. I have a 2008 Quad cab with the single disk, infinity 7 speaker system. I would like to add an amplifier and subwoofer that I have from a previous vehicle. The amp has pre-amp inputs as well as speaker level inputs. I don't believe the stock head unit has pre-amp...

    Which size tire and why?

    Hello- I'm new to the TDR forum and this is my first attempt at posting. Also my first cummins as I made the switch from Fords. I need to upgrade my tires to handle wet conditions and dirt roads for the upcoming hunting season. Stock tires are Lt265/75r/17 Michelin LTX AS and they are squirley...
