Hi Thump, Sorry I can't help you with the transfer case issue, but know how hard it is with the best mate, especially when it is an Aussie ! Hope the mechanical issues get sorted. regards Trevor

Had the water pump replaced on my right hand drive 2016 Laramie this week. Dealer had just got his first lot of replacement pumps in, only 10 available. Talking to the mechanic, they were being paid for one hour for the change. Only took slightly longer.

We are seeing more service stations with DEF available through a separate browser. Great idea, fill up at the same time as the diesel, only $1 a litre (about $3.50 a gallon converted to $US). First time I tried to refill the pump wouldn't work. The attendant came and checked that I did mean to...

Hi Mark, my understanding is that the Orange engine brake will apply full braking capability. The green is auto engine brake and will vary the amount of engine braking to maintain your current speed. I find it works well in tow haul mode. Towing our 3.5 tonne caravan down a long steep grade, it...

A very interesting discussion. In Australia we generally have two different fridges, 12 volt or a 3 way fridge which runs either propane gas, 12 volt or 240 volt. First rule is always turn off your gas at the bottle and your 12 volt power (except for the fridge circuit) before heading out on the...

Hi Jim, Greetings from Australia. I have just been working through a similar issue with my now 5 month old Ram Laramie 2500 4x4. My caravan is set up with 3 x 120amphr 12 voltage AGM batteries, these can be charged from fixed solar panels on the caravan roof through a solar regulator, or a 40...

Cale size and "smart" alternators Hi Jim, some ideas on this problem. First the wiring size - I have always used 6AWG (13.5mm2) good quality cable and run both positive and negative cables via an Anderson Plug (50amp rated) to connect to my caravan. This gives lower voltage drop and will run...

Just for comparison, current diesel price in Australia is $US3.85 per US gallon ($AU1.35/litre). In more remote areas I have paid up to $US5.70/US gallon!

Thanks , I am due to pick up my new 2500 Ram next week, and have seen some different recommendations on breaking-in. I will, of course, go with the 800km no towing, then 800km at 80km/hr max (towing a 3.3tonne caravan). We have a new source for right hand drive conversions in Australia, set up...
