I hope so. My truck is at my local diesel shop stuck in 5mph derate mode because they can't clear it. They replaced the DEF pump and a few other things but can't clear the derate. They're going to try to get the OEM software tomorrow to reset the ecm but if they can't, they're saying I'll...

Eager to see if anyone has ran the Smeding grid heater delete kit without the horn. I just want a low cost option to delete it, as I'm not doing it for any hopeful performance gain... Just longevity of my engine.

Noticed this morning - the steering wheel heater works when I remote start the truck. The moment I put it in drive and start to move it - it turns off. @RamCares is there a recall on this part?

My truck is past warranty at nearing 80k miles. I'll inquire with the local dealership though.

Did you fix it yourself?

How are you liking that soft topper? Been considering that topper or the flated topper...but not sold on either one as of yet.

No fancy alignment computer machine needed? I'm mechanically inclined but I've never done an alignment on a vehicle before.

been running AT3s for awhile now and recently replaced the front tires with the AT4s...no issues yet. Wild Peaks have long been some of the best bang for the $$$ for an AT tire.

helps mitigate the outside tire wear on the 1-tons...not sure about the 3/4 tons. Found a local place that will do it for $190 - much better. I'll talk to my neighbor later tonight who works at a local body shop with an alignment machine to see if they can do it for less or I'll go to the...

that's what i thought - from my recent alignments on other vehicles. insane estimate.

Inquired about the cost of an alignment on my '22 using the Thuren specs - they came back with $564 and 3.5 hours of labor. Is that high for an alignment? I haven't done one on the dually yet and it just seems higher than what I pay for normal passenger vehicles.

Yea - definitely odd. Not sure if I should still make an appointment to take it into a mechanic/shop or just let it ride until/if it pops up again.

Not sure what happened, but my CEL/P2459 cleared itself after being on for nearly a week. All I did was top off the DEF with the expensive stuff (platinum whatever) due to the place not having the cheaper stuff I top off with and 2 days later, the CEL is gone? I'm not sure what to make of it -...

I avoided the aisin transmission/k1 issue, only to have this slap me in the face. I saw your comment about someone having the ground isolation wire relocated - any update on that guys truck? Just trying to figure out what the potential solution can be before I make an appt at the local Ram dealer.
