Per recommendations on this Forum I ordered and had installed new Bilstein 5100 shocks on my 2012 Ram 3500 4x4 diesel short bed. Love the ride. But when I hitch up my 5th wheel trailer (12000# loaded) now it seems to sag in the rear compared to before I replaced the stock shocks (72K miles)...

I have used it, so I guess I'll have to use it up and try something else.

Washer bottle is full and works. But the light for low washer bottle comes on after starting truck. Opinions and advice?? It is a Ram 3500 4x4 4 door short bed 6.7 diesel/auto.

You might also check with your local Car Max dealership and get a appraisal price on them buying your old truck. We took my wife's 2002 Toyota Highlander with 175K on it and got $6000.00 for it in 2013, then we found her next car and ordered it.

I have a 2012 Ram 3500 HD crew cab, did all the diesel trucks come from the factory with block heaters? I have not found mine yet.

Something to keep in mind if you are going to use RV resorts vs boondocking. A lot of RV campgrounds have what they call a 10 year rule to keep out the broken down trash RV's. If you buy a 12 year old RV and it is in nice shape you can usually get in no problem. The campground owners are...

Yes, but mine has been replaced before and now after the 60K service it is setting off the warning but I did not find anything in the owners manual on how to shut off the message.

John, thank you for responding.

I've got a 2012 Dodge Ram 3500 4 door, 4x4 6.5 bed 6.7 diesel. I tow a 34 foot (about 12,000 pounds) 5th wheel. Truck has 65K on it. It is stock height and tows great. What brands do you like? Ranch 5000, Monroe, etc.? Phil Saran Parker, Colorado

Nothing listed in owners manual, there is for oil change and that worked, but nothing for the air filter (mine is clean)? TIA Phil Saran 2012 Dodge Ram 4x4 diesel Parker, CO

I was talking with a guy who has been a Cummins mechanic for 18 years and he says to leave the vacuum jake brake switched on all the time so that it will clean air going into the turbo. Anyone have experience with this? Also what is the plus/minus switch on the auto shifter arm do? Is it to...

I have a good diesel repair shop here in Parker, CO and their labor rate is a bit lower than the Dodge dealer so I will take it in to them for service.

My question is on the slider hitch there are 3 setting for the uprights 17" 18" 19" I have this mounted in a 2012 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4, 6-1/2 bed. I will be towing a 2018 Keystone Cougar 30 RLS 5th wheel 34 feet in length. How much clearance do I need between the bed rails and the bottom of the...

I just purchased a "new to me" 2012 Ram 3500 crew cab 6-1/2 foot bed with a B&W slider hitch in the bed. Is there room in front of the hitch to mount a secondary fuel tank in the bed or is it better to purchase a replacement larger capacity fuel tank for under the bed? Factory fuel tank is 34...

One of my friends recommends that I add a can of DFC Plus Diesel Fuel Conditioner with each tank fillup. Anyone use this stuff? Open to comments and opinions.

I'm kind of new to the forum, just pulled the trigger on the purchase of a 2012 Dodge Ram 3500 crew cab, 4x4, 6.5 bed Laramie, cherry red w/silver lower trim and cream interior. 46K miles on it. Since I don't have much history on it I plan to take it in for a oil change and fuel filters...

You might have been better off with the Rancho 7 way adjustable shocks, had a set on my last diesel truck a 2004 Ford F350 long bed. at least they gave 7 choices on what setting to ride around on.

Looking at a 2012 Ram 3500 short bed to purchase. Will a tri fold bed cover work with a 5th wheel hitch? Meaning will the cover folded forward clear the 5th wheel hitch (slider)
