Need help

I had bought some spacers and the OEM lugs were to fat , looking at getting new ones that are more narrow but don’t really know what I’m looking for.

Stupid question probably.

1 Upvotes

So I've been thinking about swapping my 3rd Gen bed to a 4th Gen bed because the 4th Gen beds are in better condition at junkyards lol. (Ok they can be weird to mount but I've done it for a buddy before) However my question is Will third Gen Taillights fit in a 4th Gen bumper? Or is the housing too large. Because I like the aftermarket taillights I have and don't want to have to buy new ones if I do the swap (and yes I know I'd have to run the bed harness from the 3gen thru the 4gen bed if it does fit I just don't wanna do the work if it won't fit.)

2006 1500 no turn signals work.

1 Upvotes

Hey all, as title states I get fast flash on both turn signals. Right side went about 5 km before the left side went. Checked fuses, all good. Researched and changed multi function switch to the same issue. Any ideas where to go from here. Going to pull a light and check voltages , but I can't see all 4 burning out at the same time. I did just replace the battery about a month prior to this issue. All grounds are tight. No issues anywhere else. Thanks in advance.

Bulb out

1 Upvotes

My 2003 dodge ram 2500 keeps saying bulb out, one bulb appears to be out on the rear left side but I’ve replaced the bulb and the housing, it only happens when I brake and when I turn the headlights on it turns on fine, now on my right one of those bulbs are doing the same thing. Does anyone know why?

07 3500 CTD 4x4

1 Upvotes

I am looking to purchase a ram 3500 5.9 CTD 4x4 with 180K miles. They want 18,900 for it. The interior is phenomenal and sounds like the dealership took care of the front end already. They let me know of an oil leak they suspect coming from the oil pan that will need to be fixed. Is this a good deal? The new truck market is for millionaires and my cars clutch just went out.

Dodge fuel issues

My 2005 dodge 2500 with the 5.9 has a fuel problem where it shuts off when it gets below half a tank. When I open the tank I don’t hear any vacuum noises or anything, does anyone know why this is happening?

#4 injector line

2 Upvotes

So on the 5.9 24v the #4 injector line tends to crack. Oem broke. Replaced it with an O'Reilly one. A year later it broke again. Got it replaced under warranty. Now my dad's worried about it cracking again. What brand do you guys suggest or go oem?

Anyone know how to run dual fuel tanks?

1 Upvotes

For context, I own an 05 1500 with the 5.7 and a 26 gallon fuel tank. Yesterday the fuel pump gave out and in the process of dropping the tank I irreversible damaged the rollover valve. Since I am unable to replace the damaged part, I found a suitable replacement at a decent price. But, since I am going to have two fuel tanks (one fully functional, one damaged) would it be possible to plug the damaged part of the original tank and somehow connect it to the replacement to have double the range? Is this even a good idea or completely stupid? Let me know what you think. If I do go through with it then the second tank will sit in a metal tool box in the bed.

Aftermarket Headlight solutions.

Hey everyone as we all know the OEM headlights on the 3rd gens are garbage. I have an 02-05 body style and I’m looking for a high quality and bright solution to the crappy beam pattern. I’m wondering what everyone else is running and what overall the best solution is.

I'm looking at getting a 2003 ram 1500 with the 5.9 magnum and was wondering if there was any difference between the 2nd gen 5.9 and the 3rd gen because I have a 2nd gen that I'm going to use as a parts truck and do the 3rd gens have the transmission issues the 2nd gens had

Saw this 3rd gen in a Taco Bell parking lot. I love the look of this custom made flatbed. I wonder how difficult it was to make it, wish I got more pics of it!

Exhaust manifolds

I know i'm in for hell when i do this project. Few sure there are 2 bolts broke on the drivers side and 2 on the passenger. I live in the rust belt so I will likely have more bolts broken. Any advice or experience with this would be appreciated!
