    RobMac's 24 MegaCab 2500 Limited

    For what it's worth my S&B caused no change in truck performance. However I just changed the filter and added the pre filter filter cover. Was surprised at the amount of large debris caught in the filter media. I don't daily the truck but have taken it on two 180 mile round trips and DPF gauge...

    What did you do TO your RAM today?

    Hmmm, why does mine have more CCA?

    Sluggish Start, Bad Battery?

    One thing I found when looking into this for testing parallel batteries is to put the positive lead on the 1st battery and the negative on the 2nd. Aside from that I would disconnect them each from the truck and run the out of vehicle test. They may be fine but surprised they test at 12.8v.

    Sluggish Start, Bad Battery?

    I just replaced the batteries on my 22. Just under 3 year old batteries by the date stamp. Same corrosion on the passenger negative terminal. Just assume they are done and get new ones. I've noticed the newer trucks just suddenly don't start with all the computer stuff making decisions about...

    What did you do TO your RAM today?

    Stock batteries died the other morning. By the date stamp 2 years 10 months old. And one with a cruddy terminal. They both tested bad. Giving the Walmart AGM a try. Can't beat the price and 4 year warranty like the competitors. I've had the truck hooked up to a NOCO 5 for about 6 months now...

    2021 RAM 3500 Tradesman | AEV Prospector | FWC Grandby

    I am currently working on installing a 12" Garmin MFD flush on the dash of my friends boat. The boat's dash is literally the same outside vertical dimensions as the unit. Except the dash is curved at the top and bottom. The only way to make it fit correctly was to space the unit 1/2" off the...

    Rear Driveshaft/Crossmember Clearance

    Yeah or a center one. If that axle power hop shock mount is strong enough, triangulate two from the frame each side of it. Edit: what you said

    Rear Driveshaft/Crossmember Clearance

    I would go with limit straps. You don't want to suddenly fully extend those nice shocks anyway. I'm my experience after a build and I take it out wheeling because it's done enough, the rig performs better when limit straps are finally added. Articulating at that full droop is not necessarily...

    Battery trouble

    This is a long shot but I read your first post again and reminded me of a very similar issue I had in my 04 but i was transmission related. Fortunately still under warranty. Anyway, a couple wires in the harness to the transmission were chafed. I was getting really irritated having to go back...

    Alignment after lift

    Lean, or maybe track bar not adjusted correct? Change in sway bar adjustments? Coils set in right orientation, seated? Just throwing out ideas. Been drag racing?

    Love this. Will be so helpful if I ever get around to setting up power in my inclosed crawler hauler trailer. Thanks

    Dirty engine bay

    Wow that is pretty dirty. Maybe they took it for a test spin in the desert of Mexico

    Talk me out of my suspension plans

    One of the reasons I will be following, lol. I'm not helping very well to change your mind.....The Carli E-Venture is just too dang expensive, and too tall.

    Trailer TPMS now included in 2025 Limited Trim

    I installed my sensors and they work as they should. Following the setup process I had no issues. Not a long trailer, only 20' goose. But on occasion the truck won't pick up the sensors so I have to switch trailers on the settings and it comes back. Like change from trailer 1 to trailer 2 and...

    Talk me out of my suspension plans

    Going to be following this. At some point I'll do front springs and some kind of remote reservoir shock. I've rebuilt them before and I don't mind it, but would prefer not to. Any reason for not considering Kings? Any remote reservoir shock is going to perform better than a regular one. I...

    Video Streaming

    Agreed. Except I listen to podcasts of some kind. Preferably long format. The distraction to driving is scrolling through one of the apps on the screen to find one I want to listen too. What would be smart and safer is if android auto gave me full screen with larger icons like I'm an old...

    2022 vs 2023 and up air suspension

    While browsing on here the other day I stumbled upon an air suspension discussion that on a 2024 the system will adjust on the fly while driving. I thought, mine doesn't do that what the heck. I went back and looked at all the post '22 user manuals and in '23 the description changed. The '22...

    Metal chunks in oil filter

    That's pretty small stuff that I typically wouldn't worry about. Did you test any of them with a magnet? For piece of mind change the oil yourself and see if there is any sparkles in it. Also send a sample to be analyzed. These are what I would call small chunks from my LS pan. and the oil...
