    Anyone know where a guy can find the coloring info for the rear wire harness on an 08 Dodg3 5500 C&C? I can find 13 and newer. That's it. Hauled a trailer and found the wiring for the 7 pin and the truck's lights is all screwed up. The wire harness is 20+ wires, some multiples of the same...

    Steering shaft extension question

    I have a 3” body lift on my 99 dodge Ram 1500 which requires the use of a steering shaft extension. This was all installed by the previous owner. There is a lot of play (1/4”) coming from the steering box end of the extension. I can’t tell if if on the extension side or the input shaft from...
  6. RamRunner Refresh

    Original build was done by an awesome local shop whose owner I'm friends with (Predator Off-road) with the intentions to make a big dumb truck go way to fast in things it should never be doing. And it does I've been abusing it for 7 or so years now and its time for a little refresh...

    2000 Dakota clicking in reverse

    My neighbor has a 2000 Dakota. Has 4.56 gears that were swapped 4-5 yrs ago and the factory limited slip. Over the last few days he's noticed a noise from the rearend. He had me briefly listen to it when I ran into him in town. It is only in reverse and more noticeable when turning. It's what I...

    07 Dodge 2500 4.30 gears

    SO. FRIED-INSPIRED DODGE RAM TRUCK OPINION THREAD

    Southernfriedcj8 made a claim of Dodge Ram trucks being good trucks. Rather than derail that thread I figured I'd start a new dedicated thread on the subject. I'm not a Ram truck fan at all/don't know anything about them. In a few years I will be in the market for a 4X4 chassis cab truck. I've...
