    Question on Bilstein shocks

    I've been running with 2 3/4" spacers and stock shocks since 2016 and have had no problems. I have a set of Moog upper control arms and Billsteins on the shelf waiting for signs to be replaced but it hasn't happened yet.

    Yep, knew that, misread it. Thanks for getting me back on track

    Dang automatic brake

    Gotcha. Didn't know they had an auto engage on the newer trucks. I learn something every day.

    Dang automatic brake

    Uconnect settings cannot disable that nanny auto brake brake feature. Nothing can disable it. You have to fool it. The best is to buckle your seat belt and sit on it or get the extenders as so many have suggested.

    AlfaOBD on a 2016 RAM 2500 - basic question

    Most of the youtube sites are using Alfa's Android (smartphone) version, you are using the Win PC version which has entirely different screens. I have both and would send you a screenshot for making changes but I'm on vacation til June so cannot help. If you think you have a problem I suggest...

    Looking for a "plug-in" trickle charger for RAM 3500 Diesel Dually

    You do not need one for each battery, bad advice. As Crash said, get a Noco. I use their G7200 and sometimes their G10. I do not have them mounted in the truck as they are easy to connect and remove

    TCW3 (2 Stroke Oil) in Gasoline?

    I agree, TCW3 does not stabilize but the OP's testimony offers a benefit that makes me wonder. I use additives in all of my small gas tools to stabilize and, more importantly, keep those tiny main jets from clogging while in storage. I have found more than one additive that did not prevent...

    Option and Opinions on rear bags

    Timber Groves, top quality and great service. Been on my 2016 Eco since 2016, trouble-free. His current product is even better than my 2016's.

    35w or 55w HIDS

    No bulb problems. I had two ballasts go bad, they got water in them, the vendor replaced them. Two relays failed. Found it's not good to use cheap relays. Replaced all four with a better rely, no problems since.

    35w or 55w HIDS

    I converted my 2016 Ram quad headlights to HIDs. I run a total of four HID Bi-Xenon 55w projectors, 4500K Bulbs. All four turn on for low beams and all four turn on for high beams. Did this in 01/2018 and have never encountered any heat problems.

    Rear LED lightbar problem

    Hard for me to help further as my 2016 fuse and pin data is different than your 2021. It seems you've isolated the problem to be somewhere in the harness from the fuse block to the trailer plug. Sounds like a 12v short to the left turn signal/tail light pins. Most likely in the end plug.

    Rear LED lightbar problem

    When you tested and found "power to the 10 o'clock pin (NOT normal and tail/running light pin)", yes, that is not normal. If that's the case the light bar would stay on all the time, but you say it's "sometimes". If it is sometimes the power to that pin has to be appearing intermittently. I...

    Battery failure under Warranty/won't pay

    Maybe not under the truck's warranty, but batteries are covered by the dealer. My dealer replaced a battery that tested bad and was within the battery's warranty.
