    48RE - no 3rd. or OD

    Got the truck back today. Ground for the governor pressure sensor had opened at the harness connector causing no pressure feedback to the ECM and TFT of -40. It was a loose pin in the connector...

    48RE - no 3rd. or OD

    I have a 2006 2500 4x4 48RE and on Friday everything was fine. Yesterday morning I pulled away from the house and the trans would only shift from 1st. to 2nd. It wouldn't go into 3rd. or OD. I cycled through T/H and OD Off and back to normal. Shut down and restarted. No improvement. Fred...

    Suggest a good repair shop in Phoenix?

    I have a 2006 RAM 2500 CTD and will be moving in about 8 weeks to N. Arizona from California. Can anyone suggest a good mechanic/repair shop in the Phoenix area that can handle Cummins 5. 9 CR and 48RE transmissions? No matter who it is, I will have a minimum drive of 80 miles to get there, so...

    UPGRADE: 6.7 harmonic damper on 5.9

    The 6. 7 damper is viscous like the fluidampr and is a one-time replacement vs. the rubber mounted inertia ring damper on the 5. 9 that can be a recurring failure point.

    Mechanic in Stockton/Modesto Area?

    Can anyone recommend a good diesel mechanic in the Stockton/Modesto (CA) area? My neighbor was in the business for many years, but his skills with CR seem to be a bit lacking. He's old school. My 2006 is experiencing some power loss issues at cruise rpms and I am trying to figure things out...

    Baldwin PF7977 question

    I bought 5 Baldwin PF7977 fuel filters and I noticed that they were in the Baldwin cardboard box without any plastic wrapping on the filter itself. Is this normal? Fleetguard FS19856 filters I bought from Geno's came wrapped in plastic. The filters look right as compared to the pictures on...

    The infamous drive shaft vibe resurected... and a possible real cure.

    I wonder if a Balance Master driveshaft balancer would help? Are these any good? Balance Masters: Driveshafts

    Towing mirror controls

    The 06 DH parts book shows replacement mirror glass, but not a replacement motor assy. I am having the same problem with my 06. A little thumb pressure gets things moving. Very annoying...

    Dynatrac group buy.... Who's interested.....WITH MONEY!

    rscurtis wrote, "Your analysis is very good. However, an increase of 2 MPG (which is reasonable) will significantly shorten the payback time. Don't forget also that the front DS and U joints will last much longer, and you won't require replacement of the unit bearings any more. " I chose 1...

    Pronounced "TICK" on very front injector

    Cylinder 1's injector line doesn't have a clamp to stabilize it. Maybe that is why it clicks more. Also, it feed off the end of the fuel rail rather than from the side. Some of the reflected pressure waves in the pressurized fuel (about 7500 psi at idle) could be intensified in this orientation...

    05-07 Dodge Cummins BD 48RE Automatic Transmission Pressure Controller from BD Power

    This may be way off, but... I thought I read somewhere that the line pressure solenoid on the valve body was controlled by a 0-1 amp current signal with 1 amp at idle and 0 amps at full throttle (hence full pressure in limp home mode if there is a controller fault). If one adds a 1-2 ohms of...

    Dynatrac group buy.... Who's interested.....WITH MONEY!

    Sorry for taking this thread a bit off topic... TGVET said, "$2,500. (Parts only) divided by $5. 00/gal = 500gal. x 18MPG = 9000 miles. @ 100 MPD that's three months of driving or 36,000 per year. " Sorry to correct your math assumption, but the payback is much longer. Assume your...

    Bleeding the old girl

    I have a Mityvac MV8000 kit that has worked well for me on several vehicles even though it is a bit awkward at times. I have not used it on the Dodge, yet... Mityvac Hand Vacuum Pump Kits Service Manual for 06 specifies testing the ABS with DRBIII after first bleed cycle and rebleeding. As...

    VIN # for limited slip?

    Contact Dodge Put in the last 8 characters of your VIN and ask for the build sheet. The code for anti-Spin Differential is DSA. I got my sheet last week less than 8 hours after I submitted the request. Lots of interesting information!

    UPGRADE: 6.7 harmonic damper on 5.9

    Does my 06, basically stock 5. 9 warrant the '12 HO damper at 2X the price of the 07-11 unit? I can't figure out how it could be worth it, especially with a 48RE on the back end.

    Steering linkage TSB ??

    Bob4x4 says, "Both Snap on and Miller tools make pitman arm pullers that fit and are strong enough to remove the toughest arms " True - when they fit. I bought a Snap on CJ119B pitman arm puller that is supposed to be the best for removing these tough arms. The problem was that the factory arm...
