    Steering Knuckle

    Working on the front end of a 1996 Dodge 2500 4x4 with Dana 44 front axle? I am replacing the "steering Knuckle" ball joints but "OEM" replacement ball joints are much smaller compared to what was removed. Is it possible to have a Dana 44 front axle with Dana 60 steering knuckles from the...

    Transmission Swap

    I have a friend who owns a 2000 3500 series RAM 4x4 (DRW) with a 5.9 (24 valve) and a NV4500 5 speed transmission. He wants to know if a NV5600 6 speed transmission from a 2005 3500 series will bolt right up to the 5.9 or are there other complications such as drive shaft lengths or transfer case...

    UNDER HOOD STRIKER

    On a 2005 RAM 3500 there is a part under hood called a "Striker" (part # 55275843AB). This is the "secondary" hood release and on this "striker" is a green plastic part called a "rod retaining clip". For reasons known only to FCA, they do not sell this part (clip) separately. You must purchase...

    Heater Core replacement

    Just a quick question? Does anyone remember which TDR issue had the heater core replacement article or "how to". I'm pretty sure I have one that is "going" on my 2000 Dodge. No, I don't want to do it but someone will have to! Really good shop in Denver maybe? Thanks.

    Temperature Reading

    I have a 2000 Dodge RAM 2500 Cummins / 6 speed. Problem: Engine is at operating temp and all seems OK then the gauge creeps down to the cold side and slowly creeps back to normal. This problem may happen multiple times at anytime during the course of operation. I have changed thermostat, sending...

    Np241 transfer case nut

    Working on a 1997 Dodge 12 valve. After pulling the front driveline on the NP241 transfer case, there is a large NUT, 1 1/8", on the transfer case output shaft. The shop manual says not to re-use this nut once removed? Anyone have a part number for this nut? And why can't I re-use it? Thanks.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) 1996 Transfer case drain plug wrench

    My neighbor has a 1996 Dodge 2500 with 5 speed transmission. Having just acquired this truck he is attempting to drain the fluids from said trans and transfer case. However the drain plugs on both units is some crazy STAR, TORX or maybe even metric (?). Anybody out there have an idea or part...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Check Engine Light

    I have a 2000 2500 that has been "P" pumped. Naturally the computer thinks the VP has taken a dump so it throws a code and the "check engine light' stays on. In Colorado the emissions people will not test your vehicle with the CEL on. Any way to disable it ? I know the tape cover and bulb...

    NV5600 transmission "sticky" when hot

    On a 2005 3500 series pickup with 130,000 actual, 5.9 and NV5600 6 speed with fast coolers. The transmission seems to be harder to shift when warm. Is this normal? Is this something to be concerned about . I have heard the "stickiness" subsides with a different lube like Red Line. Could this...

    Mechanical Clutch Linkage

    I am changing the transmission out on my 1984 W350 with 360 motor. I am going to a NV4500 5 speed and will utilize the 205 transfer case. This calls for a different bell housing and possibly drive shaft work also. I need to convert the mechanical clutch linkage to hydraulic. Has anyone done this...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Cruise control

    I recently had my 2000 24 valve Cummins "P" pumped. Wild Diesel in West Haven, Utah did the work. I knew going into the conversion that certain electronic functions would no longer work. I would, however, like to have my cruise function restored for those long road trips. Anyone out in TDR land...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) P Pump the 24 valve?

    I have a 2000 Ram and am going on the third, yes, the third VP44 pump! Anybody know a good shop to do a "P" pump conversion on a 24 valve. Couldn't be any more expensive than 2 or 3 VP units. Also should be more reliable. Any thoughts? I know Shied and others sell kits for this project. Dave...

    Blower motor resister

    I am looking for a "Blower Motor Resister" for a 1984 Dodge, non A/C. Would prefer Mopar new but a link will do also. My old resister has three contacts in the center of the block and one on the end. Thanks. D Mitchell

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Crankshaft Position Sensor

    I have a 2000 Ram, quad cab, Cummins with NV5600. Mileage is 153,000 miles. I am ready to replace the "Crankshaft Position Sensor" for the forth time!. Is this normal for this part to fail 4 times at this mileage? Code is P0336 on the "Smarty". Do I have another problem that I'm not seeing and...

    W350 Crew Cab

    Hi TDR gang, I am working on a 1984 Dodge W350 Crew Cab Pickup. I want to retro-fit or "upgrade" the outside mirrors to those used from 1989 to 1993. I have the mirrors but I need the mirror mounting brackets which, of course, are discontinued by Dodge. The Dodge part number(s) are 55074928...

    Bumper Brackets

    I am desperately in need of the Right and Left front bumper brackets (frame to bumper) for a 1984 Dodge Crew Cab W350 4 x 4. I believe all the pickups, D's and W's, used the same brackets from 1981 to 1992? I have the stock front bumper but somewhere the brackets were misplaced. I appreciate all...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) APPS voltage

    I have a 2000 Ram 2500, Cummins and 6 speed with 146,300 miles. I have a "check engine" light and the code reads "P0121". My shop manual indicates a voltage mismatch in the APPS or Throttle Position sensor. Is there anyway to clean that sensor or do I have to replace it? Anything in the past...
