Quadzilla adrenaline gauges problems
Also need the firmware update I'm pretty sure ADR1000 is the old firmware. Should be on the v2 tuning. Yeah timing is too retarded.

Quadzilla adrenaline gauges problems
What year of truck? There is a jumper inside the Quad to select the early or late series MAP sensor.

Quad door window latch broke
I would most likely clean up the old glue and use something like JB Weld or Epoxy.

Need OBDII plug pin out
Looking for a wiring map of OBDII plug for 2012 Ram 6.7L. Trying to replace a plug that was badly damaged and not sure of the pin placement.

Coolant data chart
Dont worry too much on specs. I've used just about every coolant out there. I tend to fall back to the original green coolant of the past. Yellow universal works just fine too. The only one I won't use is the modern HOAT. The biggest thing is NOT trying to run all the way to the limit of the coolant. If it labeled for 5 years 150k miles I would cut that down to at least 75k (3yrs) to 100k miles (4 yrs). Our diesel engine tend to turn corrosive quicker (pH dropping). Made 392k on the OEM radiator before the rubber header seal failed from, pH issues.

A little bit of what I do for work...
Very neat process. Now be able to re-bore that hole all over again.

1998.5+2001=headache
There was just too many software and hardware changes to mix and match parts on your truck. This is typically how it goes where thing just don't work out right quite.

No Start, no check engine light, no 'wait to start' - Code 1694
Just sent in another ECM for 2012 Ram 6.7L with a p0606 code. No start or run condition. ACS is handling the repair as well speak. There was a slight pause in this being the truck is deleted and wanted to make sure the owner could reproduce the delete code for the ECM being the code / software is damaged. Make sure to tell @pepsi71ocean about this and get the information on the rebuilder list. I know not everyone can be pleased 100% of the time sorry ACS didn't hold up for you.

On board air
Remember the Cummins ISB was used in many medium duty trucks with air brakes and there is a optional gear driven compressor for these applications. 5.9L Cummins ISB compresor... Gear driven... 6.7L Ram gear driven air compressor. Belt driven air compressor.

On board air
Some A/C pumps will pump the oil into the air system once the A/C compressor is empty it will seize. The old York compressors found in some Ford applications back in the 70's were the best being you could modify the pump to not pump oil out in the discharge. Typically guys use these in Jeep applications works really good this compressor will do exactly what you looking for. https://www.jedi.com/obiwan/jeep/yorkair.html Oil modification... https://www.jedi.com/obiwan/jeep/york_oilmod.html

100HP DAP Injectors with aftermarket Bodies for 98-02 match flowed VOC
The difference is using the timing of the Quadzilla tune to allow me to keep lower RPM's. No need to wrap it up high to keep MPG's.

On board air
That's the best answer so far. Way better than a low volume 12 volt compressor.

Random hard start.
Typically the starter armature brushes cause the loss of power. One one brush fails out of the 4 then you half power.
-
Ignition
Starter can be hot wired by jumping the brown solenoid to the red battery lead. As for ignition you kind of dependent on the rest of the electrical system.

Consensus on "leveling" a truck
Just posting the knowledge I've seen in lift kits and the screw up people have made. That includes using a com-a-long to put the axle over enough to get the track bar in because of a 2 inch leveling kit install. Never done leveling kit on either 3rd or 4th gen yet. Then the axle offset issues that they fought. As for photo be another day being its raining all week here.
-
Consensus on "leveling" a truck
Preferred. The axle will shift on the 2nd gen without a adjustable track bar. Because of how the axle works on the 2nd Gen the axle swings down that extra inch and typically pulls the axle more to the driver side. Just best for the geometry factor.
-
Consensus on "leveling" a truck
Must of been a 3rd gen issue. At least mine for a 2nd Gen has never hit the bump stops in the front axle and the axle is long ways from the pan.

On board air
All my old air tools tend to eat up air quickly. I've done weird crap with a pancake compressor and air tools just really sucks when the air runs out before the nut or bolt comes loose. I've got a 20 gallon compressor (120 VAC) and my 1/2 impact on one wheel doing 8 lug nuts is enough to make it weak for the second tire. Forget doing 3rd or 4th tire air is gone and that's a 20 gallon compressor. I know those little compressor have a slow recovery rate being they the CFM's are rather low compared to a larger shop compressor. Yeah the battery power impact guns are pricey but... A single charge can do days worth of work without recharging. No hose, no cords, just work. Even at my shop we've got a 60 gallon compressor (220 VAC) and even the owners guns eat air rather fast but the compressor is big enough to keep up though.

On board air
I could understand this for inflating tires. But, I would never try air driven tools like a impact gun. Now been at my new shop I've fallen in love with a the land owners DeWalt battery power impact gun. That thing is a super strong and doesn't have cord or hose. Awesome tool

Bed cap rails
Kind of wish I had rail caps on my bead now after all the time sliding the canopy on and off has done its damage.
-
Consensus on "leveling" a truck
Personal I don't see any value in leveling a truck. Every time you hitch up a trailer or put a load in the bed it will look like a squatting Ford truck. If I want my truck leveled just hitch up a trailer and go to work. It's leveled. Only cost the fuel of dragging around the trailer or the load in the bed.

Radiator failure
Made a trip yesterday and no real difference in cooling capacity. Just nice to not have a leaking header tank. Fresh coolant and thermostat kept the coolant at 195 to 197*F like normal.

100HP DAP Injectors with aftermarket Bodies for 98-02 match flowed VOC
Not really. Depends on the final ratio to the ground. I'm typically shifting to 4th gear by 25 MPH city driving. When you drop to 245's for tires this changes the final ratio to 3.69:1 and 4th gear can be as low as 25 MPH and still float 1,300 RPM nearly. As for weakness. I've broke the mainshaft but never had a 5th gear nut problem. My last failure I ate 5th gear at 80 MPH but never broke the input shaft that every one says is weak. Strong points, 3rd is pretty strong the amount of BS I pour to mine. Typically 3rd is strong enough to spin the tires free on dry asphalt.

Bigger turbo will still be laggy and bit Smokey depending how low you want it to spool.
