    Fluid extraction pumps

    I used the ewk extraction for my 2022 2500 rear diff. I highly suggest getting the manual/pneumatic, $60 on amazon. I initially used the hand pump, but found getting off the ground to pump up again a pita. So I hooked up the extractor to my compressor and worked great. You do have to fish...

    ADVICE PLEASE

    Just changed my rear diff w amsoil 75w-85w 2022 2500 6.7 LSD. I checked the fluid prior to drain and fill and it was over 1" low....there were no leaks. It is good advice to check fluid levels (front diff, transfer case) on any purchased Ram.

"94% biomass-based diesel blend"....contains MORE than 20 percent biomassed-based diesel or biodiesel on Chevron fuel pump. The top sticker shows biodiesel between 5 and 20 percent...B20, and have been using...

    MarkCO1's 2022 2500 Big Horn

    Ditto on rough country wheel liners. Liners showed up on porch with zip ties attached not in a box...not a big deal. Installed the back, was not a 30 min install as advertised, was a rough install and the not all the pre drilled holes in the liner would not accept the push pins supplied, had...

    Rear bed step

    Like others said, OEM is best. Friends have after market steps, and IMHO the oem is solid and tucks away nicely. Shop around online, you can get better prices for the step... Take note on the torque settings, one of the bolts is in "inches" not foot pounds. Was cranking on it and thought...

    My Order and Purchase from Tuttle-Click Ram in Irvine California

    Knocking New Ram

    Kudos for you taking a vid of the racket, this will help down the line if further issues continues.

    Coolant Smell

    I’ve learned my lesson re pics and vids. Coolant leaks, rfe 68 trans issues, check engine light, engine brake not working AND take vid of exterior of truck while in the service line. Dealership scratched and dented passenger door. They did make good by bodywork and paint

    What advice would you give to a young version of yourself, if you were buying your first HD Diesel?

    Ive owned a Ford 350 gasser and wasnt impressed with the towing/braking (IMHO) especially uphill/downhill pulling horse trailers. The diesel engine brake is a big bonus for hauling, both for safety and saving service brakes. I dont regret getting a diesel. I like most guys do all my filter...
