    Long crank times after setting all night.

    04 Ram 5.9 Cummins here, 240,000 miles and bone stock. This year this truck has begun experiencing long crank times after parked overnight. It's getting worse. I just returned from a 3,000 mile trip and it runs perfectly other than the occasional long crank issue, usually first thing in the...

    Trouble with headlights on 2004 ram 2500

    I've had weird headlight issues before with my 04 2500. Try pulling your TIPM (fuse box under hood ) and reconnecting all the plugs. I replaced my FCM and done the plug reconnect ritual several times to restore various headlights that stopped working. Never did figure out exactly what was the...

    What is pump sound from dash when key is turned on?

    My lift pump is in my fuel tank and I believe the high pressure pump on the side of the engine is driven off the engine not electrical.

    What is pump sound from dash when key is turned on?

    The noise sounds like it's on the firewall behind the radio. It's always been there just not every time I go to start the truck. Now it runs even after a short period of engine off.

    What is pump sound from dash when key is turned on?

    On my 04 Cummins Ram there is a sound like a pump running for 5 seconds or so when key is first turned to run position before cranking. Whatever that is it is activating more often and for longer duration lately. Who knows what that is and what it's about to cost me?

    What does RAM mean to you? Why did you buy a RAM?

    I have a Ram because that's what my Cummins came wrapped in.

    rear spring replace

    You can bolt on a set of air bags or add a helper spring, or you could just add more tension on your weight distributing hitch which will lift the rear of the truck a bit more.

    3500 leaf springs on a 2500

    I have an 04 2500 and the only difference between the 2500 and 3500 is an additional overload spring leaf on the 3500. I bought the springs and perches from the dealer and put them on my 2500. It does involve welding the perches to the frame though. You might want to just add air bags with...
