    3500 DRW Alcoa wheels

    I am looking at some take off 3500 DRW rims on EBay and the seller says that they won’t fit the 2013-2017 Ram. Did they change something in 2018 with respect to the DRW aluminum rims? Is it just that the center caps are different?

    2013 stock Ram hunting/surge while driving at power

    I am on a RV trip out west towing a 21K 5th wheel with my 2013 Ram 3500. The truck is all stock and currently is at 71K miles. I’ve owned it since it was new. It has developed an intermittent issue that I would best describe as hunting like there was a dead spot in the throttle rheostat at...

    Ram parts not what I’d expect for an OEM part

    I recently had moisture in my drivers side (projector style) headlight. After consulting with my local body shop friend/owner says “yup, see it all the time, I recommend that you just replace it”. He tried to order a new one from their Ram parts supplier only to find that they are back...

    Service 4WD System and then...

    I need a little help guys. I'm moving my DRV form New York to Florida with my 2013 Ram just turned out 52K miles. Everything was great until this morning. At 62 MPH I got a Service 4WD System message. While I was trying to figure out what was happening it cleared. I stopped at the next pull...

    TO5 recall completed and then....

    My truck was 5 years old 8/12/2018. I recently started getting the dreaded check engine light with code P2201 ”NOx sensor circuit range/performance bank 1 sensor 1”. I knew that the T05 recall was supposed to be the answer for this issue so after clearing it 4 times in 6 trips I made an...

    DRV weight

    I stopped at the Flying J and weighed the new trailer yesterday. Keep in mind, I installed my Onan 12Kw in the bay so she's a little heavy. The GVW of the truck is 15,100 with the Truck and Transfer Flow full. My pin weight is 5350. I'm close on the rear axle. I may move the B & W RV 3600...

    Rear differential service

    I serviced my rear differential today (3/28/18) at 38,645 miles which translates to 19,044 on this oil. There was a fair amount of iron filings on the magnetic drain plug and the dipstick. I last serviced it at 19,601 on 9/26/15. I used Mopar's differential lube (part number 05102232AA) 75W-90...

    Seepage from the right side PTO cover on my AISIN

    I moved my truck after it had set in the garage for a couple of months and much to my surprise there was a drop of redish liquid on the spotless floor. Further investigation revealed a film of oily reside and wetness around the PTO cover on the passengers side of my AISIN transmission with one...

    Pictures

    Can't seem to up load or see pictures in the 4th Gen Forum anyway. This has been an issue since last week. Also going back to look at old posts pics are no longer there. 404 error.

    Mag-Hytec cover on a 11.8 AAM axle

    Has anyone done it? Does it fit? I'm looking to add this upgrade to my 2013 at its first rear differential fluid change. Geno's catalog only lists the 11.5 axle not the 11.8. So is anyone running a Mag-Hytec rear differential cover on a 3.73 or 4.10 dually truck? Ken Irwin

    Refill DEF soon warning

    Well I ran my truck down to empty on the DEF gage to see the warnings and then drove it another 60 miles or so pulling my trailer to Greenville SC for our Thanksgiving holiday trip. I got the DEF Low Refill soon message but I never did get the 200 miles to speed limited to 5 MPH message. When I...

    Exhaust system preventive maintenance

    I have been following the issues with the 4th generation trucks and that has led me to believe that I might someday have to replace an exhaust system sensor. I bought an extended warranty from Easy Care when I bought the truck from the dealer, but I'm still not sure if the DPF and NOX convertor...

    Trailer tow wiring for the 2013 and 14 trucks

    I posted this over on the 4th generation forum but thought in might be more important here for future problems as our trucks age. I have been researching what could go wrong if you connect a trailer with a dead short or some other wiring problem to my 2013 Ram as I am familiar with the TIPM...

    Trailer tow wiring for the 2013 and 14 trucks

    I have been researching what could go wrong if you connect a trailer with a dead short or some other wiring problem to my 2013 Ram as I am familiar with the TIPM issues we went through a few years back. So after much research as best as I can tell the Body Control Module (BCM) located in the...

    2013 oil filter and block heater plug access

    I was trying to figure out how to access the block heater to install the cord I got from Geno's and see if there was a way to get that pesky oil filter out of the maze of hoses and tubes that they have all over the engine that makes it nearly impossible to actually touch the oil filter, let...
