    Scanners

    The biggest complaint I have seen about the cheap generic scanners is that they don't read the ABS module. I have AlfaOBD and it reads all modules and has the capability to make configuration changes as well. I also understand that AlfaOBD works on Android phones but unfortunately not iPhones...

    Lift Pump Fuel Pressure Monitoring/Monitor

    Didn't Mopar come out with a low-pressure warning kit that taps into the CP3 and ties into the lights on the dash? I added one to my truck but also have an ISSPRO gauge as well. I replaced my OEM lift pump with one from NAPA and it reads right at 15 psi which I understand is max for a CP3. I...

    Looking for Advice on Windshield Replacement - What’s the Best Approach?

    I have AAA insurance and it includes full safety glass with zero deductible and they refer you to Safelite for the repair.

    So there I was... Shopping for a new truck

    Since you are in Montana you might want to check out DFC Diesel in Edmonton. I worked with them on my long block rebuild and it comes with a warranty. I went with their tow-haul long block, but we did a number of upgrades. They were great to work with. The DFC Diesel long block comes with...

    2006 Doge Ram 2500 4x4 front coil springs

    I upgraded my springs. I believe I calculated the weight differential to be between 400-500 lbs. with my set up (Buckstop bumper and Warn 16.5 winch). Was it necessary? I can't answer that question but note that with all the issues we have on the front end of these trucks adding that...

    Auto vs manual crank

    This is a photo of my crankshaft on my 2006 (5.9) manual (G56) truck. I don't see a lip:

    Exhaust Manifold Heat Shield

    Couple of questions. What are the thoughts on use of high heat ceramic coatings on the exhaust manifold and turbo? I had a local outfit ceramic coat my exhaust manifold and turbo when I rebuilt my motor (1800 degree rating). My intent was to make them pretty but use a coating that would hold...

    Power Steering Reservoir Cap

    I had this issue after upgrading to the 2008+ steering and the larger 6 bolt steering box. I fortunately always found the cap in the engine bay but purchased a spare just in case. The problem went away when I upgraded my 2006 power steering unit to a gently used power steering unit out of a...

    Excessive Oil Blow By

    When I removed mine for cleaning it had no restriction at all. You cannot see the inside so not sure what media it has. I think I cleaned it with Dawn dish soap.

    Excessive Oil Blow By

    That's what my 2006 looks like. Four security bit screws attach it to the underside of the valve cover. Note the O rings on the protruding ends.

    Excessive Oil Blow By

    Just to be clear, the air/oil separator on you 2006 is different than the 2005 and prior 3rd gens. It is attached to the underside of the raised portion of the valve cover. You have to remove the valve cover to get to it and it is attached with security torx screws. You can get the security...

    4 wheel shift lever

    I used hiem joints as an option to the OEM upgrade. I'm really happy with the results. https://www.cumminsforum.com/threads/transfer-case-linkage.1667434/?post_id=29948381#post-29948381

    Bypass Oil Options

    I have the Amsoil Bypass single head with the ports on the top: https://www.amsoil.com/p/filter-mount-assembly-bk303/ They also have the single head with the ports on the side: https://www.amsoil.com/p/filter-mount-assembly-bk305/ I have no problem changing the regular filter in the stock...

    Remove transfer case from G56 first??

    The SIL I removed the transfer case (TC) first and believe we did so before removing the transmission cross member. The TC is not that heavy by itself and makes getting the transmission out a lot easier. The TC is offset to the center line of the transmission making the combined unit unwieldy...

    Donaldson muffler MO90544

    That's what I'm running. Sounds good and most importantly no drone on the highway and that is with me just dumping it down before the rear axle.

    Preferred fluid/lube for G56 ?

    When Standard Transmission and Gear rebuilt my transmission they recommended: Amsoil Synthetic Manual Synchromesh Transmission Fluid – 5W-30 (6 quarts + 1 quart over). Probably closer to the ATF+4 Mopar recommended. I also experienced slow shifting in cold temps using Mobil Delvac 50. The...

    AlfaOBD Dongle and fuel T/S

    I understand that the electrical system was upgraded to a CAN BUS system in 2006.

    AlfaOBD Dongle and fuel T/S

    IIRC AlfaOBD recommends the OBDLinkMX+ What year truck? I understand that AlfaOBD has more capability for the 2006+ trucks.
