2nd Generation Dodge Reliability / Performance

Lets see - open to ANY truck years as long as a CTD

Had to get rental today so wives crv get airbags fixed. Rental was brand new jeep compass. Not sure if all gadgets are worth it. Here is pic of center console. Be nice to have some of stuff in a 2nd gen. Wiring diagram probably need roll of butcher paper to get it all on. Don't see how common guy can fix his own anymore. Some things are nice but this is over kill.

how come i am getting a p0602 code?the smarty says fuel calibration?

Well as the title states my wife thinks I need a new truck since we're moving back to Colorado. She doesn't want me to keep using my old 78 Ford for my winter beater and the 01Dodge is her winter transportation (happy wife, happy life). With that being said she thinks we need another Cummins so I've been on the lookout for an unmolested 2nd gen. I've found a few potential candidates. Which one would you consider? https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/2001-dodge-2500/6758095175.html https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/2002-dodge-ram-cummins-trade/6750979105.html https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/2002-dodge-a-2500/6758957497.html …

Just got back from a 2-week Southern Tour towing a 28ft Wilderness 5th wheel camper. Truck data in my signature is current. Rig ran great but always in search of better fuel economy. Around town empty it will get ~18 mpg. On two occasions I've taken it on road trips (empty) to Dayton (400 miles flat terrain each way) & gotten a hair over 20 mpg (hand calculations) running 67 mph (2200 rpm). On this trip towing the 5th wheel (trailer wt ~ 8k lbs) on fairly flat interstate roads at ~ 60 mph (slightly under 2000 rpm) I got 13.0 mpg. This was on the first leg of the trip from St Louis to Kentucky - the whole tank was burned with trailer in tow on the interstate. Later fil…

Specificly on the early 2nd gen (94-97) trucks. I'm going to be doing some interior work on my 96' so it won't look like a hooptie anymore lol. I'm going to recover my headliner, add texture to fiberglass repaired panels, and paint them. I'm still debating building my own top dash but not sure yet. If there is any interest in this I will take pics and possibly some videos.

What I'm trying to find out if I produce kits of bulbs say like Exterior package of LEDs would you guys like to purchase a kits of LED bulbs for your trucks? Like for example the front switch back bulbs, rear tail light, LED backup lights, etc. I've just filed a application for becoming a vendor for LED products. I'm looking at expanding the store and adding more products. Now lets stay focused here on this thread with strictly LED lighting and I'll work with that for now. Like the external kit like... Red LED brake and turn signal bulbs Red LED cab brake bulbs White LED cargo light bulbs Front switch back bulbs -OR- front amber LED …

Hello Everyone, I have been going back-forth for several months now on if I should invest in my truck or a newer truck. Now it must be stated that my current 2nd gen has been nothing short of awesome to me, always completed the task asked (towing, road trip, hauling) but its now 15yrs old with 171k miles. I just got back from another road trip to visit my friend out of state (360 miles each way) and I came to the conclusion I either need to invest in my current rig or search for something newer (3rd /4th gen). The below list are the items I know of my truck would require to be invested in (not necessarily in order) to be 100% in my book (some may not be nec…

Before I begin, let me say that I love my Ram. That being said, I have learned a LOT about buying from someone you don't know (-$9,500). First (and I already knew this), the tires were worn out (replaced (-$750) Shortly after buying the truck, I found out the block (53) was cracked (recently replaced) (-$2,000 - got a good deal). Then I noted some trany issues and after wrecking the truck it finally quit (had it rebuilt) (-$850 - another great deal). Truck stalled and wouldn't start. Found bad VP44 (replaced) (-$970 plus -$500 labor). I had starting issues and found out after replacing both batteries (-$300) that the starter was shot (replaced) (-$200). After the wrec…

Hello I’m going do this mod but have a question I don’t have a Passenger side battery and was wanting to know if I needed to run a hot wire on top of radiator to hot side of drivers battery to hook Alternator wire to? i have the hot lead that came off factory set up from passenger battery that I have the grounds hook to now that I need to put on injection pump side for new grounds!

Or could I just do the grounds and leave the Alternator wire in harness or is that the wire that carry’s the …

Hello I know it's been brought up countless times, but I have a few questions regardless. I'm looking to give my truck a little more pep in her step with either some 100hp or even 120s. I was set on 100s until I messaged Chris at Ducky about some new ones. He suggested 120hp VCOs. And he was the only one I've talked to that didn't suggest a SAC. So i might be leaning towards 120s now. So now on to the turbo. I'm looking for something that will spool quicker than my hx40 (and hopefully keep the EGTs a little lower) I was looking at a Super B but I think I might want something different. Any one have any suggestions on this matter with the supportin…

Hey gents, having an issue with my iQuad BT. I had Quadzilla update the box to the v2 tuning and I have the correct V2 1998.5-2002 vehicle profile selected. I've purchased a tune or two off of the Quad Downloads section and it won't allow me to select it. This is an issue for me on multiple devices, they're all .json files. One of the tunes I was able to select but once I open it with the Quad app the whole app crashes. Is there a way to manually open up the tune file and manually input them into my app? Anybody run into this issue before? About ready to ditch the iQuad and go back to an Edge... Here's a screen shot of the what it looks like
