I've been here 18 years. Watched the forum grow with great people in the beginning. They all left, disheartened, as did I. Sometimes we got together and even formed another site for a while. It was good but people had lives to live and we drifted apart. Some even bought chevys! After a long...

Body shop messed up this belt strip and I want to replace it. There's a screw at the left end but I dont know how to get the rest of it off. It's discontinued (according to dealer, who didn't give me a P/N) so I need to pull one form the salvage yard. Problem is, I don't know what all I need to...

I have a bit of a whine that seems to be coming from my front drive shaft. Changing out the U-Joints is easy enough but given the fact that the ball joint isn't greaseable on my 2003, what is the chance that the pin (that holds the ball) on the drive shaft is still serviceable at 123K and that I...

So the allignment shop cranked my caster from just under 4.2 to 5.2 degrees (susp. is stock- no lift). It drives terrible. No return to center and very heavy steering. It's hard to even keep it in the lane without constant input and attention. Can't imagine what towing is going to be like...

OK TDRians, I need the collective wisdom of the forum to identify this screw. I believe it's a tamper screw from the 50's or 60's - maybe earlier. I collect old automotive test equip - battery chargers, etc, and need some of these. I know I'll have more luck finding some if I at least know what...

My Energy Suspension track bar bushing has some play in it at the axle end but the top one is still perfectly fine. Is it normal for the lower bushing to go bad more often? 2 to 1? I'm thinking of just replacing the bad one and keeping the other one from the kit on hand in case the lower one...

I have a 2015 Challenger SRT and one of the most remarkable things about it is how fast it makes heat. Within 30~45 seconds it putting out low level heat. Within 2 minutes it's pouring out! I don't understand how it can do this unless there's some electric heating going on. My question is for...

I've replaced lots of UJ's onother stuff but never on an all aluminum shaft. Are there special considerations like bracing the ears or do you just push the joints in as usual? FWIW, they're AAM 1485 type greaseable Spicers. Thanks, Scott

Decided to try an knock down the noise level of my stand alone, FASS 95 pump (I was partially succsessful) and noticed the fuel line that came with it (Parker) is all cracked and rotten looking. This got me to thinking about the in-tank retrofit kits. If I'm going to replace all the fuel...

Is there any down-side to installing the updated geometry "T" steering parts? Seems like back when it first came out, some guys were saying the handling wasn't as good in some way. Also, is the FCA kit the way to go or is there a good aftermarket kit (hopefully greaseable)? Moog? My truck...

Shocks went in fine and it handles great. Decided to check other parts for wear and found the drivers side inner tie rod bad (all others are very tight). Certainly not complicated to replace but whats the chance I can do so without messing up the allignment? I thought maybe I could make some...

I'm replacing my shocks with another new set of Bilsteins (last ones lasted 65K) but I have never replaced the steering stabilizer. I have the original linkage (no lift) and no issues with death wobble but it does get a little "floaty" when I hit dips in the highway with a heavy travel trailer...

I run my SmJr on #2 for towing (9500#) but I wonder if there's anything wrong with using the #3 performance setting. Assuming I don't use the extra upper RPM power and tow like I always do, is there any harm in towing with #3 like perhaps the timing is different or something else that effects...

My buddy has a 2006 with 60K miles (bought new) and his AC clutch coil is open. Seems like an odd failure for a low mileage truck that doesn't get heavy use of the AC. He has also been experiencing and burning rubber smell that he couldn't locate. Not sure yet if it's related to the coil...

Hey All! I've got a minor problem with a leak at the return line for the power steering system. It's the low pressure connection between the PS pump, hydroboost and cooler. I'm pretty sure this...

I replaced the HVAC controls https://www.ebay.com/itm/DODGE-Ram-Dakota-AC-Heater-Control-Head-Control-Unit-NEW-OEM-MOPAR/162029569137?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 (lighting issues) and the new part's AC and Mirror heat buttons immediately lit up, then just the Mirror...

Any thoughts on these things? Do they actually improve spool-up. I see mixed reviews. I run a SmJr on 2 with 50HP injectors. Thanks in advance, Scott

But with a twist! My only problem is that the airflow out the middle and passenger side dash vents is weak - driver side is strong. My DW also felt that the pass. side AC was not as cold with fan on high. I wonder if it''s just because it wasn't blowing as hard as the dr. side. Points to...

My buddy has a bone stock 2006 with about 40K on it and has finally decided to add a little power to it. He want's to use the Edge Evolution on the lowest setting which is 55 HP and 150 Ft/lbs (seems like a lot for only 50 hp). I'm trying to talk him into installing a pyro since he pulls a...

If all other parts and systems are good on a stock truck, will honed 50HP tips pass? Thoughts? TIA, Scott
