    Upgrading 2010 Ram ST Interior

    The EVIC cluster will plug right in and will have the basic gauges and main display screen. To get it to function correctly, you will have to swap steering wheels for one with the buttons, do some basic cutting/splicing of wires, and have the dealership flash a new sales code into your ECM. I...

    Shopping Tires From Walmart for My Car

    I had Goodyear Viva's on a car I used to commute in...be glad you got the road hazard, I had more flats than any other tire I ever ran. Good thing (I guess) was that I got about 60k out of them because they had all been replaced under the warranty at least once.

    Probable upgrade time (Karl gots a new truck)

    I would recommend driving them both. I went and test drove a GMC 2500 with the 6.0 last week...and I was really disappointed with the performance. My 15 year old daughter was with me, and as we left the dealership, she said "man that truck was gutless, when you got on it all it did was make...

    Leveling struts installed

    I'm aware of the ball joint issues. It usually seems to affect 2.5"+ kits, and it doesn't seem to matter if you use spacers or struts...they both change the suspension geometry the same way. I've got about 10k miles on mine since I installed them and no movement so far. The Mevotech's are a...

    Leveling struts installed

    I think the Coopers weigh around 58# each in the 275/65/20 so that's roughly 33% heavier than the stock tire...in addition to being 1.5" taller. I just used strut spacers to level mine. No issues yet!

    Leveling struts installed

    I just stepped up one tire size (from a P275/60/R20 to a LT275/65/R20E) but when I went and tried to find a spare (since the spare is a 17" wheel), the guy at the tire shop and I rolled about 4 different size tires out to check them next to the tires on the truck. The closest thing I could find...

    Leveling struts installed

    I think I'm going to do the 1.5" body lift on mine...one of these days!

    Mine as it currently sits.

    Leveling struts installed

    Looks good! Mine used to get mileage like that...until I leveled it and slapped on bigger, heavier tires!

    https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/670776080/overview/ I don't know if the link will work (this computer won't let me use the insert link button) but here's one in Dallas. If you wanted a 1500, I know a guy selling a '12 with 33k miles here locally...looks brand new!

    Cylinder 6 misfire on a 1999 Chevy blazer

    Did you inspect the distributor housing really well. I had one that acted similar years ago...it was always worse when it rained or there was moisture in the air...and it turned out that there was a hairline crack in the back of the distributor housing. I replaced that and it ran like a champ.

    What Did You Do To Your Truck Today? v2.0

    I've had mine for just over a year and have 22k on it...but I didn't really drive it for almost 6 months while it was in the body shop and I was driving the commuter car mainly. I have had the commuter about 10 months and have put 27k on it.

    What Did You Do To Your Truck Today? v2.0

    My little commuter car recommends a 15k mile interval on brake fluid changes!!! I can't imagine doing it that often...I bought it brand new 8 months ago and have almost 30k miles on it!

    What do you Tow?

    Surprisingly, the trailer wasn't set up for an equalizer hitch, and I didn't have time to find one and get it set up...I was on a pretty short deadline to get the trailer moved. I let the equalizer hitch I used to have go with the last trailer when I sold it. The title lists the GVW on this...

    What do you Tow?

    A little trailer I picked up last night...39 foot HyLine Park Model with 3 slides. I added airbags in the rear coils and a trailer brake controller to the truck before I hooked on to it. I wouldn’t want to drag it across the country, but the truck pulled it fine. I did have to take it easy...

    2015 Ford Mustang GT vs. 2015 Chevrolet Camaro SS - Head 2 Head Ep. 58

    Yep, you guys are right...crying my eyes out over how far down hill this fun, "brand neutral" forum has gone. I would think there would be some incentive to keep the few remaining members here active, but I guess the crap can just flow freely now. I guess 5 years of wasting time here is enough.

    2015 Ford Mustang GT vs. 2015 Chevrolet Camaro SS - Head 2 Head Ep. 58

    I honestly don't give a crap! It has gotten to the point that I hate opening any thread that I see a GM/other brand theme or see any kind of response by :wookie: or :brain:. I wouldn't open them, except there are only about 10 active threads per day, so I hate to skip a third of them. The...

    Project: STX Rehab

    They do. I tried to talk my wife into letting me buy a low mileage 88 RCSB 2wd 4 banger for a commuter...she wasn't too keen on the idea. :lol:
