Hi all, I'm not a regular contributor but hoping you may be able to help me nonetheless. I’m an Aussie who bought a 2014 Ram 3500 Cummins Aisin Megacab in the US and imported it into Australia through a right hand drive conversion company. I’ve just discovered that the panhard rod mount on my...

Until I got this truck I've been driving full time 4wds or front drive VWs for the last 10 years. So we had the first rainy day for some weeks. Roads greasy, quiet evening with no-one around, on my own in the car, glance around .... traction control OFF ....coming off a roundabout ... pedal...

That's the price differential (net of freight) Thuren is quoting. I'm looking for more comfort, towing a 10k TT bumper pull and with a moderate load in the bed, on backcountry bad bitumen and dirt roads. Is it worth it? They're saying I'll get personalized design on the Kings, but what...

I installed a different trailer connector and must have messed up, because now the front and rear right turn signals are out. I'll reverse my modifications in the morning, but in addition I want to check the fuse and can't find it!! According to the manual fuse 81 is the turn signals for...

Hi I just discovered that when the mirrors are flipped up on my truck, 'up' on the switch moves the mirror down, 'left' moves it right, etc. I assumed it was a glitch in the RHD conversion but the conversion company says it comes that way from factory. Is this right? Cheers

Hi all, OK, there are a million posts here about suspension upgrades, but I'm getting confused by all the choices, and it's not always clear where the author is coming from - some folk are into off-road racing, others heavy hauling. I thought if I set out our needs, some like-minded experts...

Hi all, For remote travel in this sunburnt country it's smart to carry a second spare. Puts off the dreaded moment when you have to fish out the tyre levers and bead breaker. I'm assuming some of you do the same. Where/how to you carry it and anchor it in the bed? Do you have a hoist or...

Hi all, I'm looking at getting a truck rack made for my 2014 3500 Megacab with ramboxes. None available off the shelf here in Oz. I'm hoping to still be able to install a tonneau. I'd be grateful if folk could post photos - both the overall rack and also close-ups of where and how it's...

Hi all, Odd request, I know. The truck comes with a 'User Guide' and manuals on disc. But the first purchaser can go onto the website and order what people call the full set of hardcopy manuals, which they say makes a pile about 6" thick. Can someone please take a photo of these for me for a...

Evening/morning all, I have the 'easy exit on engine off' (forget the precise words) setting turned on, on my sig truck - so that the drivers' seat powers back a bit when you switch off. Small but convenient feature for my well-fed bulk. Last week it stopped working. All the seat manual...

Now tell me honestly. I know the CTD is pretty powerful, but I'm really worried that I might be overstraining it ... Perhaps I really need duallies, lower diffs, a tuner? :) It's a 14' (but 4 berth!) offroad van, GVWR 1600kg (3500 lb) bought to be towed by my father in law's Nissan Pathfinder.

Hi, Snorkels are a common addition for outback travel in Oz, partly for engine protection when wading (rarely a good idea, but occasionally a necessity), but mostly to get the air intake up above the self-generated dust when travelling on our infamous 'bulldust' roads. I know our trucks now...

Hi, I have an Edge Insight CTS. My truck is stock and will stay that way. The Edge lets me set 'alarm points' for each PID, at which the device will beep to get my attention. Can some of our more experienced or technical readers recommend what values I should set for the most important...

(Posting in the right forum, this time.) Hi all. For those that bumper pull, especially in remote areas, how do you have your bed set up? Obviously the way one will setup for a 5er is very different, but I'll be doing a bumper pull so have the full bed free. I'm especially interested in...

Whoops, sorry, posted in wrong place. Mods can you delete?

I see from other posts that it's possible to turn on DRL with the dealer tools, or that they come turned on in Canada. But which lights are they, on a 2014 Laramie? Fog lights, turn signals, or something else? Can someone who has DRL activated on a 2014 Laramie, please post a photo? I'm...

Hi all, Well I've got my Edge Insight and in a week will have a truck to put it in. I wonder if some of you who have experience using one, would be willing to post a list of your recommended alarm settings for critical PIDs? Unless there's an official list out there somewhere - but I...

OK, so the wife asked where the model name comes from. Ie. what does the "3500" signify? I assume there's some parallel between this "3500" and the "350" in the Ford F350 model name. Is it payload? I see my SRW payload is about 4200 pounds which is kinda-sorta the same, maybe. Also, while I'm...

Hi, I will be installing additional driving lights, and want to switch them to only come on with high beams. Normally I would tap into the highbeam wire at the back of one light, use this as one leg of the coil circuit in the spotlight relay, and run the other leg of that circuit to earth...

Hi, I see from some posts that some of us are unhappy with either the product or the manufacturer. Is this universal, or have some of us installed the latest Lockpick successfully/gotten good service with any issues? I'm mostly after the multiple camera feature. Navigation or video...
