    Getting ram dolly towed

    So the owners manual specifically says that we can't get the ram 4x4 towed on a dolly. Either all wheels on the ground or on a flat bed. Does anyone know why we can't get it towed on a dolly?

    Front axle Breather tube size

    Does anyone know the inner diameter of the front axle breather tube? The stock breather tube is like 4" long. Any moderate creek crossing will surely submerge the breather tube. Looking to lengthen it a bit. Thanks.

    Weigh Safe Gooseneck ball

    I just came across a new product by weigh safe. it's a gooseneck ball that fits in the factory gooseneck hitch and it has a scale on the side to measure pin weights. Has anyone had any experience with weigh safe products? Seems like a cool gooseneck ball if it works as advertised.

    Engine and trans temp rising in stop and go traffic

    Has anyone noticed their engine and trans temp rising in high idle or in stop and go traffic? Interesting thing is if the AC mode is enabled, regardless of whether its actually cooling or not, the trans and engine temps drop. like 185 on the engine and 160 on the trans. (Aisin trans btw.) I...
