    Front Crankshaft Seal Replacement

    The seal leak started in late July this year as we were pulling our travel trailer down to Arizona. The leak was severe enough to coat the underside of the truck and spray a fine mist of oil all over the trailer. When stopped it would puddle under the front of the truck. I lost a quart+ of oil...

    Front Crankshaft Seal Replacement

    Update to the front crankshaft seal replacement. I finished making the move into our Arizona house and had time to tackle the crankshaft seal job. I sent the Geno's wrench set back (no refund as of yet), and purchased a set to fit my air hammer. Completed the job over two days and was very...

    Front Crankshaft Seal Replacement

    When I applied the pneumatic wrench to the nut today using the right hand thread information, the nut/fan clutch came loose. I have read in many different places and heard from the Geno's folks today that my truck is left hand threads. I believe a left hand thread means you turn a wrench to the...

    Front Crankshaft Seal Replacement

    I am attempting to remove parts on my truck to access the timing cover/crankshaft seal. I purchased the fan clutch wrench set from Geno's and was surprised by the wrench being overcut on the laser table so that did not work to remove the fan clutch nut. I tried a pneumatic set that the shop I...

    P020 Codes

    In the past week my truck has set P020A, P020B, and P020C codes. I know these are injector related, but have no symptoms, no misfires, smoking, stumbling, etc. I am clearing the codes and continuing to drive, but do I have a problem that needs immediate attention. I am currently in Phoenix and...

    Did drop by O'Reilly two days ago, 2 bad batteries, 2 new installed. Hard to believe both gave up on the same day...........

    No start

    Randomrunner, I have had the Service Braking System message flash a number of times over the past months. Is that what you see when the passenger battery goes bad?

    No start

    O'Reilly Auto Parts Sierra Vista AZ load tested batteries and they both tested bad. Replaced with AGM's, cranked over and started. Thanks for the assist, glad you all are out there.

    No start

    Thanks, I will be doing that next, because these are OE batteries. The truck started fine last night, could they give up that quickly?

    No start

    Tried to start my truck this morning, and after getting the wait to start message only got a clunk. The gauges went to zero, and the display went black. AAA jump start did not change anything, still no start. Any input is greatly appreciated.

    Power Steering Pump going bad?

    Not sure what you mean by the "spanner", Ozymandias. If you are referring to the tensioner, it was in very good condition. The truck has about 76,000 miles and the maintenance charts call for a check on the belt regularly. The old belt was original equipment and was over one half inch longer...

    Power Steering Pump going bad?

    Quick update to my power steering issues. The chattering in the steering while parking my truck has occurred a couple of more times recently. This has caused me to really spend time looking for the problems, and I finally discovered the real issue. The serpentine belt was stretched and glazed...

    Power Steering Pump going bad?

    Thanks for the input! Got in the truck this morning and everything is normal. I am wondering if a fluid change is in order as suggested. Maybe 2400+ miles in 4 days stressed the fluid and caused some issues.

    Power Steering Pump going bad?

    I have a 2016 Ram Laramie 6.7L Cummins with 75,000 miles. I just finished a four day drive across country and have noticed the steering getting harder to turn each day. Arriving to my hotel last evening turning in and parking the truck took a great deal of effort on the steering wheel. There was...

    Perform Service light coming on

    Thanks for the quick reply, only about 600 miles from the house, so it can wait another day or two!

    Perform Service light coming on

    I have a 2016, 2500, Cummins with approximately 54,000 miles. I am traveling back to the Northwest from Arizona, and am pulling my travel trailer. The past couple of days while pulling a grade, around 2400 rpm's, the Perform Service light is popping on, stays on a second or two and turns off...

    Considering an RV purchase

    I am the owner of my second Northwood Arctic Fox travel trailer. The current model is a 2016 25Y, 30' "bumper pull", one slide, front queen bed, center kitchen, rear seating (either jackknife sofa or chairs). The commode is near the front bedroom in its own room, shower across the hall, with the...

    Fuel Filters

    Just got my filters ordered from Amazon, and the front filter was in a canister Mopar carton, ie. wrong stock number, knock off, not genuine. They came from Northern Lights, so I will lodge my complaint and return for a refund.
