    Exhaust Manifold Passenger Side Bolts

    I have lived with an exhaust manifold leak on the passenger side for a while as I didn't want to tackle it during the winter. Now that warmer weather has come, I have started to work on it. No surprise the rear two bolts broke, but that is not where I am stuck at the moment. I have gotten the...

    Clunk/shudder from Rear when starting turning from stopped

    I have been fixing various things on my 2005 Ram. After doing some front-end work, the rear u-joint which was probably going for a while started producing a lot of vibrations at highway speeds. I replace the u-joints, and the last thing I have left is a shudder or clunkiness when starting from a...

    He Me Figure Out Noise

    I have noise that I can't seem to trace down on my '05 Ram 1500 4.7L 4x4. It happens at various times while driving for no obvious reason. I can sometimes get it to happen when it has already started while cruising along when going up a slight rise by giving the truck a little more gas so the...

    Hub Bolts Won't Loosen

    I was hoping to replace the front wheel bearing assemblies on my 2005 Ram 1500 4x4 this weekend. My back had different ideas, but it is getting better. I have the brakes off, the axle nut loosened, but the mounting nuts will not budge. I guess this shouldn't have surprised me since they are...

    Jerky acceleration and no Cruise with P0344 Code 4.7

    Driving to work the truck ran fine, no issues at all. When I was leaving for home the check engine light was on, but at first it seemed fine until I pulled onto the highway. When accelerating it suddenly stopped accelerating and started to jerk and buck. The truck kept running, but wouldn't get...

    2005 Ram 1500 4.7 TIPM removal

    I intermittently have weird electrical issues on my new to me 2005 Ram 1500. Feedback on it tends toward it being the TIPM, and my thinking was I would pull it out, open it, and see if there is corrosion. In my quest to do so I have found the nut that holds the main wire(s) running into it is...

    Rapid ticking/clacking noise front passenger side

    I was driving to work today and cruising along at 100kph speed. Suddenly, there was a rapid ticking or clacking noise seemingly from the front passenger side. Turned off the radio. No change. Turned off the AC. No change. Tapped the brakes and it stopped and didn't come back. Any suggestions on...

    Weird noise(s) when backing up

    I am not sure where to post this, but today I had the opportunity to go for a longer drive with my new to me 2005 Ram 1500 SLT 4x4. Most of my driving up to now have been back and forth to work. When this happened I was in a parking lot and was trying to pull into a site. The turn was tight...

    Brake Controller Install Help 2005 Ram 1500 SLT with Factory 4-Pin

    I just picked up a 2005 Ram 1500 SLT that came with a factory 4-pin. In the years following one of the previous owners had installed a 7-Pin connector which at this point looks like it just patched into the 4-pin. I have been busy with bodywork to get it safety certified, but now that I am...

    Things to look for

    I am considering purchasing a 2008 Ram 1500 4x4 5.7 Hemi. I was wondering what I should look for and be aware of when I am going over it? Thanks.
