Driving to work, check gauges came on and voltage gauge dropped to 0 Got to work safely and just fine. Parked truck, attempted to restart truck and now have a no crank issue. Pop good to find passenger battery overheated and blew battery everywhere. Did the gauge test sweep. Gave me a bunch...

Hey yall, going to be adding an AC condenser fan to my truck and have a question. Based on the picture, and that I will not be running a thermostat for the fan control, but rather running the fan wiring harness through my auxbeam gang box so I can control when I want to turn fan on, how would...

This is more of has anyone done it. Can you install, drill and tap the manifold for an EGT probe with truck running? I’m being told it’s perfectly safe since the pressure from the exhaust will prevent any shavings from entering turbo. Same for when I tap just to add grease.

Today after driving home, went to shut down truck. Normally I just click the key back to run and the truck shuts down. However this morning when I did that, it was like it started to shutdown but then fired right back up. It was a very quick, shutoff start. Not sure how else to explain it...

This just started happening. No idea what or where the noise is coming from as it’s only me around. Sounds like a bearing. Only present when hot or long run times. I’m trying to get help to narrow it down https://youtube.com/shorts/K4YVCmVhUa4?si=g4XBrx0txYDpG9fT

Hey all, now that part of my issue has been addressed on another thread for shocks. Why can't/won't the body mount kits for 06-09 trucks work on 03-05? Are the mounting locations that different? I don't have a comparison truck to look at. All I can find a red poly units on...

Hey all, just got my truck back from a shop for a pretty large front end rebuild. Here is a list so you know what was installed and can better answer my question. Since I have installed all of this and now have what's called memory steer, which the shop told me would correct after around 500...

Has anyone here with an 04-05 that has the 7 pin plug in the bumper but 4 flat under the truck converted that to the newer style plug that has both 4 and 7 in the bumper? i saw a part at autozone that used the OEM trailer plug to make both connections in the bumper. Right now my factory...

Hey yall, battling a leaking fass elbow fitting at my cp3 inlet. Can confirm this is where it’s from. I’ve tightened over and over again to point I think if I go anymore I’ll snap it off. I’m going to be removing and inspecting the fitting and likely installing a new elbow and fitting so I...

Simple question, should I be able to move my belt tensioner by hand .5-1” ? I feel like the answer is no. This is with no tools. Just pushing on the tensioner in direction of removing the belt.

Hey yall, Have a question for you more experienced (older folks LOL). I have LED bulbs in my map lights on my 04 and they work great, they came with the replacement map light lenses that I ordered off amazon since I broke them during my cab light install. My dome light is the factory halogen...

I’ve been seeing posts and threads on running a 9blade turbine wheel vs a 10blade. Most noticeable difference is the sound of spool up and how loud the turbo will actually be. here’s the question, what is/are pros/cons to the 9blade over the 10? Is it worth it?

Hey guys, I was at my local hardware store to get a spare key made and the guy at the counter told me that my key is chipped and truck won’t start with a spare. Is this true for the 2003-05 truck? I have to use the fob to unlock truck or alarm goes off and my key has the round grey part on it...

Hey yall, can’t find the answer I’m looking for. This weekend my father and I installed a Fass 165gph along with a Fleece sureflo in tank unit so that I didn’t have to modify or hack up my factory sending unit or cut holes in my tank. To do this, we removed the bed which was pretty easy...

Hey family, to me this seems normal but wanted to ask yall since it’s happened on my last 3 Cummins trucks. weather gets super cold and then I start to have coolant leaking out of my overflow hose where it connects to the radiator and no where else. story, last week it got into -temps with...

Hey yall, i can’t find what I’m looking for. Few uses ago in my 4th gen had someone post about putting my transfer case in neutral and then putting truck in drive to help warm transmission when really cold. Truck was a 2wd so couldn’t do that. Any use in doing this or just driving s slow...

Haven't ever been a big fan of the big heavy duty front and rear bumpers for a couple reasons. 1. They stick out too far for my liking. 2. Add a fair amount of extra weight to the front end of the truck which makes me think front end parts will wear out faster. Those being said, my trip to...

Hey family, Some confusion here so please help me out. Truck is a 2004 ram 2500 but the valve cover shows that it is the HO 325 engine so 04.5 engine and transmission. Lift pump is also in-take as it was updated by the dealer with the previous owner and no longer on the filter housing at the...
