Bought this firetruck on a whim.
1978 W400 4wd. 360/NP445/NP230.
12,000 miles.
Going to yard all the firetruck shit off it and put a flatbed on it.
Part-time kit was already installed. Probably put a better ignition system in it and a 4bl manifold and carb.
Don't know shit about these things...
Sold!
Time to downsize....
Some door dings and sagebrush pinstripes, otherwise straight. Interior is clean, have had seat covers on since I bought it ( they could use a wash tho :homer: ) Currently just under 180k, does have slight cold exh leak, comes with new manifold gaskets and studs...
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...
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...
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...
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...
2017 Ram 3500 with a Mercenary Offroad front bumper and a Warn M12000. Well...the winch is mounted, but the control pack was going to hit the intercooler. Has anyone relocated the control pack under the hood, then moved the wired remote plug in to an accessible spot? I had to clock the...
93 dodge d250
tapet cover was leaking really bad and I pulled the pump in the process to replace it with a billet replacement. put it back together, and it ran perfectly but still leaked. pulled it again and fixed the leak but now it has a skip on acceleration, blow by, and seems to be geting...
Has anyone had accessory drive belt misalignment issues at the ac compressor? Truck in question is a 2005 3500 2wd standard cab The compressor is one groove forward and the belt jumps back and then destroys itself. New belts, new tensioner, new fan drive. Checked the dampener for a bad rubber...
Thought that it was my U-Joints, well I was wrong

08 Dodge with the 6.7L
Didn't realize it was that bad till we were screwing around leaving work trying to out rev the kid on his fancy pants Hardley motorsickle.
Dead leg stab the go pedal and it takes a good half second to respond and ramp up, then a good 2+ seconds to rev back down.

1999 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 251,000 miles.
Last week when driving the truck, I was coming to a stop and my oil pressure gauge dropped to zero and the check gauges light came on. When I accelerated from the stop it immediately returned to normal. I now happens every time I'm coming to a stop (~900...
We picked up a truck the other day to use to haul some logs (will be installing a flat bed). It has the 440 automatic transmission. I think its a 727 trans but I'm not 100% positive. Whats a tell tell indication that's what it is (I've never messed with a Dodge truck). It is a 3 speed.

So here is the short of the long.
Sold the jeep
the dealer took the ZR2 back after blowing it up at about 80mph on the interstate.
Then I bought a ram 1500 trailer and RZR.
Nothing special about the ram 1500. It was what they had on the lot during covid and I needed a truck...
Its a 2022...
I just swapped to 4.30 gears in my 07 2500, previous was 3.73.
My question is on the speedo correction.
I run a smarty touch, which had ABS/speedo correction.
I'm running 37x12.50-18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. With the 3.73's I had the smarty set to 35.5" tire to get correct speedo tested by GPS...
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...
So I put 35 spline drive slugs on my son’s rig when I built it. I can’t remember who made em. Macs comes to mind. Hell I can’t remember. Anyway, he recently changed beadlocks and we took off the two inch spacers off and sold em with the old wheels. This has made the aluminum caps held on with...
