My 04 has the original pressed metal control arms, I can replace them with new ones or go for the tubular style that is available. Just curious if there is a difference in ride quality between the two. I have my 04 and a 2013 and the 13 is rough on the front even with all new parts and being...

Getting ready to changer out the lower control arms and have read about the cam/ concentric bolts can be an issue removing. I have been searching for replacements, if I need to cut one or both does anyone have a source for these things?

Probably been asked and answered a few times on the 08 T style upgrade for these trucks but, been searching and reading till my eyes are tired. At least here it's easier to get better opinions and ideas. Other than the Carlis, Thuren, Synergy and such that are out of my price range currently, my...

On an 04 manual transmission can the turn signal switch be changed out without removing the steering wheel? The intermittent wipers does not work and there are times when I open the door the wipers swipe the windshield on their own.

Without removing the injectors to have them tested would testing the resistance on each injector tell me if one or more is bad and need replaced? If so, what would be a good/ bad reading on them? 2004.5 year model

In my 04 while using the a/c when I pull up to a redlight or stop sign the RPM's bounce when I lift my foot off the go pedal. It bounces a couple time before settling on the normal speed. Yesterday, I started the truck and it acted like a dead miss at idle, like an injector was was dead. When I...

While I had the truck on the lift looking for a rattle I found something odd. Curious as to why the passenger side lower control arm looks this way. One picture is the drivers side, other is passenger.

I've been reading good and bad about the pistons on the 04.5 and up engines. What's the story on them? I only plan on adding about 60hp to the truck, curious if it will survive.

I have tried searching and can't find exactly what I am looking for. On a 2004.5 manual can the cruise control high idle be activated? I have read a few things about grounding pin #22 in the ECM using a Cummins plug and pigtail part # 3164262 to make it work. Can anyone verify that it works? I...

I need to replace the carrier, the rubber all around it is shot. Build date for the truck is 4-04. I have two part numbers AAM 40021334 and Timken 25-32039X. Just wanted to see if the numbers are correct for the replacement.

I picked up a 2004 the other day, been wanting to get back to manual for a while. Mechanically the truck is in good shape, the interior is better than most no stains, tears or sagging seats. I am the third owner and was told the original owner added a leaf to the rear for extra capacity. To me...

Question for those using Alpha OBD. I have a 2013 Ram 2500 and I lost the only key fob I had to the truck. If I buy a new blank key fob can I program it using Alpha OBD? Talked with a dealer and was told the truck had to be present to program one and the nearest dealer is forty five minutes...

In the market for a 4 post lift for the shop, looking for recommendations on the go to brand. Currently looking at Bendpak, Titan, Atlas and Challenger in the 9k- 12k capacity range.

Have a 2013 2500 auto with a bad turbo, I discovered the connection to the actuator was full of silicone and made to appear to be connected. Cleaned it out, hooked it up and have codes for the actuator. The truck was deleted before I bought it so, not sure on the story as to what went on before...

Any volunteer firefighters around? I am in the process of becoming a volunteer for Brock/ Dennis VFD.

This week I became the proud owner of my Great Great Grandfathers Hamilton pocket watch. It's a Hamilton 992 and the serial number dates the watch back to around 1903 from what I can find out. From what I understand he worked for the railroad out west. not sure which one. At one point he worked...

My Honda atv family has expanded, turns out the girlfriend loves to ride too so she has her own Rancher. I looked at side by sides and they are too wide for most of the trails we ride in Colorado. The fifty inch side by sides seemed too cramped and we would not be able to haul as much gear for...

Turned 70k miles yesterday and I am on my own now, the warranty is gone. I am a little nervous but, I am confident that I will not have any major issues. My truck has not seen the dealer except for the usual flashes, recalls and a new SCR. To date I have had no mechanical issues at all...

On my way to South Fork I traveled over La Veta Pass. As I approached the top of the pass I noticed the coolant was at 236 degrees, oil was 255 degrees and egt's topped 1500 degrees. This little engine likes to run hot, so far everything is still running as it should no ill effects. I didn't...
