    Onboard Air

    Double Viar with tank on passenger frame rail with custom mounts. Lost a little bit of depth on storage bin in floor.Single pod display in cab for air bags and tank pressure. Used most of the riv-nut holes on that rail to avoid drilling frame.

    Signal lights on running board LED strips

    I have this done, used trailer plug wire and a converter box to drop the brake signal out. I used truck lite dual bright ambers (little rectangle ones) on each side step bracket. The strip lites will be a commanding look. Use these two Amazon links...

    Error code P0733 popped up today - updates

    Most likely they will flush your lines with solvents and air. Todays coolers are more difficult to flush by there design. Hope they get you fixed up right. The ZF transmission is an excellent unit you got a dirty casting possibly. I like to do fluid on that unit at 50,000 miles.

    Show Me Your Lights

    They are holding up fine , a little tight to wire up behind the step brackets but well protected there. They just use two sided tape to stay In place

    4 Post Auto Lift Recommendation

    I second on the advantage lift. Lifts truck fine, after swapping to a wider offset wheel I have to be really careful on placement tires hang off about 2” each side. Beats laying on the concrete ! A wide body Dodge would probably be the same. Also clears for drive under on stock suspension- 83” I...

    Turbo actuater module failure

    On ISB Cummins at work I push it to thumb and index finger free movement. Has not backfired on me yet. Actuator is pretty easy job, be sure to recalibrate after installing, We have some VGT turbos with 350,000 on them with second and third actuators on them.

    Slept in Ram last night - truck won’t start

    I would check all large gauge wires and connections from battery to starter. Most likely one is loose.

    best route towing from LAX to DFW, I-10 or I-40?

    I also agree - some parts of that section are terrible, went thru in March and they couldn’t even get the wrecks out of the median in a safe/timely manner!

    New truck in and oil change question

    Not disputing warranty claims at all. But TBN doesn’t lie and the oil we use can hold up quite well to 24+ month age. The TBN never goes below 3 at this duration that’s why we check it. Blackstone does charge for TBN yes. And yes I may be open to another lab. Not trying to derail this thread...

    New truck in and oil change question

    Blackstone laboratories actually told me in a report one time that oil doesn’t spoil and not worry to much about time. But the guy that has to take that three year old filter off may curse you. I like to age out oil at 2 1/2 years on our fleet trucks.

    New truck in and oil change question

    I don’t see if you are Gas or Diesel in that chassis? A gasser would be right on the edge at 7400 miles. I would probably run it that distance if not to severe of a run. If it is a Cummins I would run it the whole trip. I have done oil analysis on first oil changes(diesels)several times never...

    Blend door problem, calibration?

    Try it while engine running and leave fan speed off. Hold A/C button for 10 seconds that should put it in recal and you should hear actuators running Good Luck
