Its been a long time since I have been on the forum. Glad to see the RAM religion is still in place.
That being said I am considering replacing my ole truck (2006 3500 Mega Cab 4x4) and could use some counseling as this is a tough decision. Obviously my truck is paid for and for...

I am hoping to get some feedback for those of you who have switched from the earlier version of the G56 (AD) to an (AE)? I currently have 156K on my stock clutch (I am knocking on wood as I type) and so far no issues. And yes I pull with my truck often!!! I am one of the lucky...

Need a little help here. After tons of research I cant find the exact part# for a one-piece drive shaft?? Note: I found multiple part numbers but not sure they are correct?? I have a 2006 mega-cab 4x4 with a G56 transmission. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated as I...

Man I got a crazy one for you guys. So I just had all four of my ball joints replaced (Moog) and had the new steering system (tie-rods / drag link / pitman arm) put on while in the shop. Now that I have the truck home I must say the steering is TEN times worse than when I took...

I was curious if any of you G56 guys have had issues with leaks from the top. I have had the same issues before and took it to the dealer which they fixed and 30k later its leaking again. It appears to be leading from the gasket which surrounds the shifter. Any ideas?? Thanks...

I know this topic has been beaten to death but I thought I would add my two cents since my truck just got the "rough idle" bug. It started a few weeks ago and only appeared to be in the morning after the truck sat. On random occasions when starting up my truck it would run rough...

To date I have seen a lot of information on the differences between the old G56 and the new G56. For those who dont know the G56 in the 2008 model trucks have different gear / ratio in them compared to the old G56 in 2007 and older trucks. I currently have 3. 73 ratio in my axle...

After reading my latest TDR (great mag) it appears that the new G56 has different gear ratios per gear vs. the old G56. As most of you know the old G56 with 3. 73 rear-ends are actually getting a 4. 10 combined ratio with the short 6th gear. I agree that when pulling its...

So this is a first for me. I took my trailer to the race this past weekend and when running the kitchen faucet in my trailer I had a lot of black water coming out of the faucet. The black water did clear up for a while and then came back at random times. Note: I had no issues...

Through my research I have found a few guys using 265-70-17's on their dually so I wanted to submit another thread in hopes of getting more responses. My stock 235 tires are completely gone after 25k so I am in search for new tires. I like the 265's because they are wider...

What tire size and type are you guys going with on your dually with stock rims? I have alway been a big fan of the BFG all-terrain but I open to change. In addition I would like to go with a larger tire but have concerns with spacing in the rear. I am not really interested in...

After ordering a 2006 4x4 Mega Cab Dually I am thinking I may have made a mistake in ordering the dually vs. a single rear wheel. I am in sales and was under the impression that my territory was going to change... ... well its not so I will need a single rear wheel to be able to...
I know the general consensus among the TDR brethren is that you hate the new fender flares. However I got to demo one last weekend and I must say they started to grow on me. I was also amazed on how well the truck rode in comparison to my quadcab. Any way I was wondering if anybody purchased one...
Probably going to ruffle some feathers out there ... . but I am curious if any of you 3rd Generation guys miss the rattle of the old 12valve or 24valve? I currently own an 03 which has been a great truck but I got to tell ya ... ..... I sure miss the rattle of my 02 24vavle. :( The other day I...
Hello felllow TDR brethren!! I need some help. I just installed my Mag-Hytec diff. cover and I am little confused on the lubricant level. I measured the old pan fluid level and compared it to the new Mag cover and it appears that if I was to follow this measurement then the fluid would...
Hello!!

Need Help! Not long ago I noticed my check-engine light came on and when looking at my guages I noticed that my volt meter was reading 18+ volts. This will happen at radom times and usually will stay on 18+ volts for a minute and then return to its normal position and obviously the check-engine...
I need some suggestions here. I just bought a new Jayco 25ft 5th wheel which I had to have the leaf springs reversed so I could pull it with my 4x4. After reversing the leaf springs I bought some 16 wheels hoping to put more rubber on the pavement as well as fill in some of the clearance in the...
