2nd Generation Dodge Non-Powertrain

my gauges started acting funny today, all gauges drop all lights come on and trip/odometer flashes. im going to check for bad connection on the gauge cluster in a few min. but i have a bad feeling that its the PCM. Anyone else have this problem or have any ideas? also alternator is still charging(fuel pressure does not drop, it drops 2psi with key on/ engine off) and no performance problems.

It was a nice day out, and i had the camera, while working out some bugs in the front end... Most recent today, with the traction bars fully installed, and hopefully, the bugs with the front end worked out...

Ok, so I've got a 96, with the EMS offroad lockout kit installed, and i've been pulling and reinstalling the drivers side lockout multiple times in an effort to figure out what exactly is going on with the noises I'm hearing...I still swear it's the bearings, but I haven't been able to identify for sure...If anyone's near Camp Lejeune, NC, I'd love some help!:banghead:However, I recently started thinking, what are the differences in the knuckles and mounting between the 96 and 2001? The reason I'm asking, is that I'm wondering if there's a way to adapt to the 2001 disc brakes, so I can avoid having to press the rotors on and off the hub. This would be specific to the DR…

So I picked up a Revtek 2" leveling kit last night and now I want to get some air bags so the rear doesn't sit lower than the front with a load on. What brand are you guys running? I like the look of the Firestone 2220 no drill kit. But I found a Airlift kit local that is new in the box for $300 obo. The only issue is it is an outboard kit between the frame and the tire and is a smaller bag than the Firestones, I just want the best ride possible for the least money...lol Not asking for much am I?

OK, I had issues with alternator for awhile. The voltage would be at 10 volts when starting and slowly drop to 8 volts after running. Figured alternator because when when measure withm eter at battery, was only reading 12 volts and it would slowly drop. Tested alternator and tested bad. Replaced. Ran good for week, then same thing. Another bad alternator. Replaced. Checked codes, 1682, 0622,0500,1765,1693, 0501. Figured the pcm isn't seeing whati t needs to see to turn on alternator. I installed the external VR to the firewall, after sandig the paint off (good ground). Wired the blue wire to the Vr, top post, to a switched hot when key is on and added a wire to run to the…

Just thought I would post up real quick about an issue I was having with my tow mirrors. First off, my truck is a non power truck so needless to say I did not purchase power mirrors which have more "stuff" behind the mirror part and do not vibrate as bad. Anyway, like I said, I had a lot of vibration sitting at idle or traveling down the road, so I decided to take the mirror apart and sound deaden the back of the mirror to absorb some of the shake. Took me about 1 hour between being anal about it and shooting the bull with my bud that was changing his oil...Here is what mine looked like off the base after I placed the "Cool It" acoustical suppressor mat on. …

Both my trucks alternators are showing the voltage of leaking AC to be too high, around .29 V ac. Is there such a thing as a filter to filter out the AC noise?

Picked these up locally last night for $400. Came off a 2012 with under 10k miles on them. Been looking for a while and have not had any luck locally until these babies showed up on Craigslist on Monday. So after working 13 and a half hours yesterday I jumped in the truck and drove an hour and a half each way. He had someone coming to look at them this morning and I didnt want to chance missing out on them. So my question is can I use my lug nuts on the new wheels? What are you guys with 4th gen wheels using?

The steering box in my truck has quite a bit of play even after I adjusted it. It has annoyed me long enough:banghead:. Time to replace it with something better I think its an autozone special that the guy before me put on. I'm thinking about a Borgeson new box or a rebuilt one from Red Head steering. Any input from anybody out there that has used either would be greatly appreciated.

Ain't that a peach?!?! :facepalm:I guess I'll be ordering clips or pins or rollers or whateverthehell holds the window to the regulator.. I hate this truck.FML.

Alright, so sometimes driving down the road, I will experience the truck drifting to one side or the other. It does not matter how fast or whether or not I'm accelerating, crusing or braking. I dunno if this is from loose steering tolerances or something else going on?I've had an alignment within the year and grease my components every oil change. Any ideas?

Do I need the whole thing like NAPA part number: 530924. Or is there just a sensor that I splice into, sorry if this has been answered but I couldn't find it in the search.FYI- my speedo works so it is one of the front sensors. I will be changing out both, just need to know what to get. Part numbers and site found are appreciated.Thanks in Advance!!!

Hi everyone. I replaced my pillar gauges yesterday with all new isspro ev series gauges. My old ones still worked but they were all miss-matched. Anyway, I had an auto meter pyro before. I hooked the new pyro up just like the old one was and according to the instructions. I did just use the same thermo probe though. I have no reading at all on the gauge. Does anyone know if I need a new probe? Or what the problem might be? Thanks!!!

I use my truck primarily for hauling the rv and short runs to town. Anyway it's not often enough to keep the batteries fully charged. Where would you hook up a switch to stop the battery discharge when the truck is stored?TIA
