2nd Generation Dodge Non-Powertrain

I am finally getting around to wiring up some things on a 6 switch box I mounted. The switches are back lit so what would he the best place to pull switched power from or maybe tap into the light switch so they come on with the parking lights? Thanks in advance.

The '00 did it again this week, no powersteering or brakes. (below ~1500 engine rpm). This is the 3rd time it's done it since FiL bought it 10 years ago. Dealer bent him over both times..... I guess it's my turn!It's got the typical seep at the steering gear, and takes about a quart a year to keep it topped off.. I do have the seal kit onhand.Before I attack this problem, is there anything to check before swapping out the pump? It doesn't sing or whine... and yes, it's full of fluid. Is there a inline filter somewhere to check?The last one was replaced because it doing the same thing, AND it was putting a ton of air in t…

Found 2 horns off a semi recently. Already had 1 horn behind front bumper and only place i could find for these was behind the rear bumper. Not really where i wanted to put them but they fit and its loud.

My "brake" light on the instrument cluster comes on from time to time. I never gave it much thought, because it was the only light illuminated. I figured it was the switch at the parking brake. Now...after reading the FSM, it appears this light can also be an indicator of a malfunction in the braking system. I did not know that. After reading, if there is a malfunction it is normally accompanied by a "ABS" indicator . Like I said, I don't have that, but it appears that is because that light doesn't work. I went out and turned the key to on and all of the indicator lights come on except the ABS light. The FSM says that this is a LED that is soldered to the boa…

I looking into getting a larger frame mounted fuel tank anybody have one, and where did you get it. Thanks

Has anybody experience this electrical problem,both went down at same time,check fuses and both are good??

Been looking around for an older diesel NPR truck. The one Im interested in has a straight piped stack which makes it too loud to for residential. Seller says, ''it wakes up the neighborhood''. So is a crome muffler very expensive? Or are there any other tricks/ options to quiet it down? Thanks in advance. BTW I love how you can tilt the cab and get to all the engine parts like working at a work bench. That's too easy.

I think my fan clutch is not disengaging. Looking for a fuel efficient fan clutch if one exists. I did a web search and came up with this article. Just skimmed so far, but it has a lot of good info. Maybe Michael wrote it? http://cumminsengines.com/uploads/docs/cummins_secrets_of_better_fuel_economy.pdf Would love to discuss more here on maximizing fuel economy without getting the thread closed due to decisive conversation. It's good for all of us!

What is needed to change wheel bearing on a 97 12 valve 2wd and can just the hub assembly be bought with new bearings

OK 2nd gen gurus I have searched for days and now must ask. Working on getting the headlight switch operational again in my 01. PO spliced in a pullout type HL switch which looks to be from the 97 type rams. So what I have is power to the headlights constant. which I believe is correct. So feeding into my HL switch I have a pink and red that is hot constant. The red and green which is the largest going in should also be hot constant but is not. However if I turn on the switch the red/green becomes hot. Also the LG wire that is HL output to the dimmer in the multifunction switch is constant hot. I believe the LG should only become hot after the HL switch is pulled out the …

I know you can adjust door hinges and such but I don't believe this is the case here. I have pics from down the side of the body bottom, middle and top of the door to show what I mean. Not sure how to go about adjusting this. Roll window down, put a wood block in the door and push on the top portion only?

on my 2000, does the stock aluminum and stock alloy steel wheels use the same lug nuts?

Since putting bigger tires on the 3 tons of fun, I don’t have the clearance for over the spring bags, So the hunt began. I went with firestone F2220 bags, they go inside the frame and and ment for a 2001 dodge 3500 cab and chassis. according to firestone, etrailer, and a few other company’s they shouldn’t work. But they do with minor modification. ended up elongating the airbag mounting holes by 1/4” and they you can clear the lip on the frame that is bent downward. If you wanted to you could grind out this one spot where the inward nut sits (which is the reason to modify) but to each there own. I didn’t want to cut the frame. Once up t…

Only because I'm adding HIds to my current ones. I went the lower budget sets from Amazon as I can't afford the big ones right now. I'm going to need a new VP44 soon and also a set of tires. After reading some of the posts here, I decided too go with the H1 35 watt version and got a relay. I also got a pair of 9004 headlight extensions so I can tap off my light circuit for the relay and magnet for the high beams. Anyway, I plan to put my old lights back in so I can take my time getting the projectors fitted and adjusted properly. I decided to try to clean the lenses before putting them back in and got the turtle wax restorat…

i have a 1999 dodge ram 2500 diesel and my interior dash lights don't work and i have checked all fuses and are good but when i put the dimmer switch up to high i blows my parking light fuse. i bought a new interior cluster it didn't change anything so going to return that. I do have 3 lines on the back were taped into by last ownershere they are solid black with yellow strip and solid pink with red strip and brown but no new wires going to them now. very frustrated with it might talk to dodge dealership to get a wire diagram printed out figure out what is going wrong.

I'm looking at doing a fog / rear light set up like MM's. Where the heck do you find the 4" rubber buckets without the lights? I can find them with fairly cheep I think ($50 / 6) but don't really want to buy them with lamps I'm not going to use. Any suggestions? Thanks

What's everyones thoughts on using a trickle charger/ battery maintainer on my truck with the quadzilla hooked up? I know it says if I am jumping off I need I need to unhook the quad. Y'all think I'll be ok to leave it hooked up?

Well stuff is starting to look up since I got back from vacation. Had a tree limb fall on hood of truck while we were gone and it did $904 worth of damage to truck. Started looking around for a new hood and found a hood, grill, and bed for $200. those three parts will fix most of the body damage to my truck. Also got my new fuel tank/toolbox combo ordered, new tires will be put on truck on Wednesday and depending on money will order a set of RV275's to put in. Hopefully the good luck will continue for a while. Anyone had there whole truck painted? If so what did it cost?

Replaced my head lights and now the bright indicator light stays on. Using the dimmer switch, I can see that the lights toggle from dim to bright. Had the batteries disconnected as well. Any ideas?
