    Dash protector or cover?

    Is anyone running a a cover on the 5th gen dash? are the leather (pleather?) are these subject to failure down the road? My '03 dash is pretty thrashed from years in the sun and some removal for HVAC work around year 17. In addition to protecting it, I would love to store things like glasses...

    intermittent power steering? 2019

    So the power steering dropped out as if the vehicle had stalled. This has just happened twice, two days ago, no hint before or since. I was driving about 15 MPH and it just stopped working mid corner. Full fail, as if the motor had stalled, but no hint of a stall. I was able to muscle...

    How to install battery isolator for 7 pin positive lead?

    I've installed isolators in my third gens for campers, but I think I cheated by just running a new dedicated 12v wire to the camper batteries and dropping he 12V + from the 7 pin connector. Truck is a 2019 3500 with tow package, if it matters. But how do you limit the 7 pin 12V+ to being...

    Alternate to Auxiliary trailer camera

    All the threads I found were archived so not open for a reply, but who has figure out a camera hack to A) Use a cheaper camera than the +-$600 Mopar unit, and B) improve the quality of the image. I purchased one shortly after buying the truck, started to hook it up, and immediately noticed...

    Fuel Filter message?

    This weekend my truck's display announced it was due for a fuel filter. It was just at about 8 K miles on filters. Truck is 2019 3500, with 38K on it. I went ahead and did it, and reset the filter minder, and it drove fine all weekend, though we did pass through some negative 22 degree areas...

    won't start. Possible FASS pump failure, stranded in Jackson Hole, WY

    Hello and Happy New year. My son has our '05 Dually on a road trip, and the truck died on him, and won't restart. It was rung when it stalled out. It was minus 15, and gelled fuel was suspected, but now he's noticing that the FASS pump is not making it's usual noises, or any hints of life at...

    Rear caliper bolt falls off

    Truck is an 05 Dually 4x4. one of the two big retention bolts has fallen off for the third time, since doing brakes on June. After it happened once, my son checked the torque spec and used locktite on the second one. It has now happened three times, and he does not know what else to do to...

    Air Conditioner TSB?

    Guys, should I let them tear apart the cab to replace the heater core and whatever all is involved in fixing my AC? its a 2019 3500 with dual climate, and it just never truly gets cold. They are also replacing the 12" radio system as it keeps crashing. I am concerned that it may not all go...

    Gear oil questions, Aisin too

    I'm in a '19 Ram 3500, Aisin, HO, and I was just looking over my owners manual for fluid changes. The line that reads " inspect the front and rear axle surfaces", only says to change the fluid if used for police, taxi, etc, but no mention of mileage interval if its used as an interceptor or a...

    Best way to add battery disconnect switch?

    My 03 now sits for weeks at a time, and must have some sort of phantom power draw. I was considering just adding a battery disconnect and defer hunting for the issue for a bit. Do I need to put one on each battery, or will doing one side stop the drain? Is there a slightly hidden spot that...

    3rd gen air box and wheel simulators

    Both items are free to a good home. Some of the tabs on the shiny dually wheel inserts are broken off, but they seemed to stay on ok Local pick up in Boulder, CO

    3rd Gen head lights

    I have two pairs of these. One is off an '03 2500, the other is off an '05 3500. Both have Putco LED bulbs, and I can probably find the OEM bulbs as well. Both trucks got RECON full replacement lights, and are stored in the very well insulted boxes, which would make them easy enough to ship...

    Who's installed a Switch-pro on '19+?

    I'd like to thank Ozymandias for originally putting this device on my radar, and my son Riley for nagging me to throw down for it for years. While I resisted the expense of adding one to my 3rd gens, I am just getting ready to add some electronics to my '19 Ram 3500, and wanted to avoid the...

    Flat bed options

    I am wanting to add an aluminum flat bed, and I want to keep the deck height as low as possible. Truck will likely get a 3" Carli system, that should help tire clearance. I want to avoid adding the 8" that many styles do, and keep it to just the deck joists going over the frame rail, of thats...

    Does adding a flat bed void warranty?

    I read somewhere, maybe on here, that a flatbed conversion puts you on to commercial and voids warranty? Seems unreasonable to me, and what warranties come on trucks that are commercial? Surely they still get a warranty, no?

    Hard wired back up camera?

    Anyone found something that plugs and plays with the camera port next to the 7 Pin? The Mopar one is expensive, and didn't provide anywhere near the resolution of the other truck cameras, so I returned it after a quick test. I assume there is one that is both better and cheaper. I'd prefer to...

    harsh shifts, Aisin

    2019 3500 Aisin. First new Ram since my '03 with 48RE The down shift to second in T/H is way too abrupt, and too common. Combine with the EB, and its killing the rear tires on mountain descents. I know not to use the EB with slick roads, but had some scary winter towing to learn that. I've...

    Lowering seat legs for Headroom?

    Hello. One of my regular gripes with my new '19 is slamming my head on the low ceiling surrounding the sun roof. Can we lower the seats and inch or two to alleviate this? This should help see the traffic lights without ducking as well. I am only 6-1. Tall people must really hate this issue...
