    Swollen Lug Nuts? Did a tech or dealer just scam me?

    Atmospheric pressures can be fun....I've hauled potato chips from Frito-Lay's in Fremont CA. , east to say... Salt Lake, etc. We couldn't go Interstate 80 over Donner Pass. The bags are packed at pretty much sea level, the higher altitude would make the bags explode (pop is more reasonable but...

    Ram Named Best Truck Brand For 2026

    I had a dealer friend tell me that "AD REVENUE" to the/any publication determines who gets the "of the YEAR" thumbs up. You give me free Buffalo wings when I walk in the door...I'm giving your place, good reviews.

    Better bed tie down points?

    Grab yourself some heavy duty carbineers or the "add a link" pieces that loop through and have the twist "nut" in the middle. Get two lengths of chain that are long enough to go from one bed corner tie down, either over the wheel well or along it, bedside (front one to the rear one, same side)...

    2024 Ram HD 2500 Axel issue

    No nerve struck at all, you'd have to burn a lot more calories to get a rise out of me. Not sure if you saw the sarcasm part. I'm not aware if you can spell that word differently. Enjoy your day up in the bell-tower looking for something trivial to pounce on.

    Towing behind a 5th Wheel

    Get yourself some of those property marker sticks that people place for marking the edges of driveways during snow season (plow guys) or they may already make such an item. Just going with my crafty side. Just need something poking out from the sides / ends of the 2nd trailer for guidance. Like...

    2024 Ram HD 2500 Axel issue

    Maybe he's not from this country or from the "holler". I've worked overseas, Western Europe and the folks there do the English thing a bit different. Also was stationed with few "Country Boys" and they spelled tire with a Y = TYRE, and AXLE with the last two letters reversed. Never once did I...

    Ram 3500 Factory 2nd?

    The Cat truck, even if it came to fruition, would be bolted on pieces parts from a major manufacturer. Look at the CAT heavy class 8 truck CT 660 from a few years back, It was an Intertrashable/Navistar with a different hood and CAT badge(s) and a limited run on CAT engines before they put...

    2024 Winch

    Is it possible to "clock" the winch? Check out Vice Designs YouTube where they install their hidden winch. Their setup has them clocking the winch body 180* and that puts the lever lock in a more favorable position. I don't know if this works in any configuration or with what winch other than...

    Tailgate down Indicator

    My 2020 Tradesman 3500 has a "Cam" tab (?) on a screen that also allows you to display a larger clock. Put the cam on and have fun...don't forget the Dramamine. It stays on for about 15 seconds. I'm in agreement with the other person not knowing where the satire is or if'n you are serious. 3...

    Tailgate down Indicator

    ...or, you could always snap on the backup cam. When you can read your license plate, your gate is down. Just saying for a friend.

    Fairlead allen wrench size

    Not quite seeing the NOT 10mm part....Sorry to take up your time.. ""Need to pull my bumper and that requires taking off the fairlead. Mine is a '21 and has Allen bolts in it, not Torx. Anyone know for sure what size Allen is needed. I measure it and get 12.4MM or 31/64. 1/2" is too big.""

    Trailer right turn/stop not working problem

    I like this when there are positive outcomes to a question/problem solving. I'm sure there is enough "experiences" 'tween us all to make a hell of a truck.

    Fairlead allen wrench size

    Try a 10mm...I'm thinking they went metric. Harbor Freight is a great place for those "one time" use tools, maybe a two time use

    Trailer right turn/stop not working problem

    Is there one for individual sides? Hmmmm. All I know and it may help if you are chasing wires, Yellow wire is for the left side. Yellow has the letter "L" (left) and Green wire is for right. Green has the letter "R" in it. Does it have to be the 7 way? You could slice in a 4 way into the...

    Rubbing rear end

    May not be a solution, but at 19,000'ish I started noticing the same. 2020 3500 6.4L , Reg. Cab, 8ft bed, 4x4. ( YUP, 2020 with 20,000 on it) Almost sounded more of a right front issue. Thought of a rub, bearing, brake hanging up. Always on slow right turns, (neighborhood) , parking lots. Also...
