  1. Last time I bought a Cummins MAP sensor it was about $135 for the sensor and the 2001 to 2002 wiring adapter.
  2. Dodge is a bronze or brass sleeve.
  3. Test for excessive AC noise issues. Then if you do find an issue, you'll need to replace your alternator then also consider doing this mod too.
  4. Don't worry about it. No pins or bushings to install. I've still got to order them. I'll just get my local body shop to do it.
  5. Also adding distance from the tap point helps. Like my sensor is relocated on the fender with over 5 feet of tubing in between the sensor and the tap point.
  6. I plan it already it just trying to do a job like this without a second person is impossible. I'm most likely take my truck to a body shop and have to pay the big money to get them replaced. Sucks but I don't have many options.
  7. I'm not sure about 3rd Gen what is in the dash for stereo controls. If the truck didn't have the controls in the first place it might be missing the wiring and computer module receiver for the controls. At least 2nd gen you would have to change out the dash harness and the high line central timer. Again I don't know what 3rd gen have for this control.
  8. Time to ohm out the wiring from MAP sensor plug to the ECM.
  9. Hmmm... Is this an automatic or manual transmission?
  10. It will make a difference. All the measurements are from the finger to the ground. Since I'm running 235/85 R16 I'm close to a factory setup. @dripley your running factory 265's right you should be able to hit the nail on the head.
  11. I've got a plastic bed liner in both trucks and it has not caused me any grief at all. No rust yet.
  12. I've already talked to my local body shop about the same thing. Changing the color of my 1996 Dodge Ram. Like her warned me you'll have to basically disassemble the truck to get all the old red color covered which cost much more to do. Sticking with the stock / factory color makes it much easier and cheaper to do a paint job and make the truck look right. Something about opening the door on a used truck and find blue door jamb on the driver side, red door jamb on the passenger side and the truck is painted brown.
  13. LOL... https://mopar1973man.com/contact/ Everything about me and where I live... I've even included a photo. Google Map directions. Heck, I made it easy to even click my phone number and dial your cell phone. I'm registered with the Great State of Idaho for DBA of Mopar1973Man.Com. I'm also registered with the Great State of Idaho for Sale Tax permit. Trust me if they wanted to spy on me they would of already. Am I worried no... Can they track me with my cellphone sure. They will find out the very same thing I tell everyone else they will see that I'm taking care of MoparMom and dialysis treatments. Waste of Gov't time to track me. A little story about a check sent to me by the Idaho County. It was during fire season and I was busy I told MoparMom to just deposit the check and I would deal with it later. Come to find out there is two Michael S. Nelson in service of Idaho County. The second one is a dentist for the Idaho County jail. I happened to get his check by mistake being I'm employed by Idaho County Search and Rescue. Needless to say, I got a nasty letter from the county telling me I was going to jail if I didn't return the funds. Next day I showed up to the attorney for Idaho County ot return the funds no biggy. The attorney already knew everything about me and all the different things I did. Was I worried nope? Why? I'm proud of the person I am and the service I provide to the local community.
  14. No arguments here. It would be nice if everyone had those conditions. Like myself I'm self-employed. Not going to happen here.
  15. Any error codes? Might fill out your signature so we know what year of truck and modifications you've got. Just of the top of my head sounds like a crank sensor but I don't know what year of truck your running.
  16. For my 7 x 0.0085 injectors, I need at least 17-19 engine load to hit 20-22 MPG. Bigger the injectors the lower the engine load has to be.
  17. Don't forget mechanical damage of the CAD vacuum motor. Like mine was struck by debris and bent the rod in the vacuum motor causing it to hang up and stick. Still to this day that truck hangs up on the release you need to stop back up 5 feet and the CAD will release. Been several times to have issues with vacuum lines, under heavy throttle vacuum low have the CAD unlock, list goes on. MoparMom even owned a Chevy S10 with a similar system and had the same issues with vacuum and loss of 4WD truck was sold within a few years it didn't survive Idaho winters at all. Non-CAD system doesn't have these issues. Even with a driveshaft that spins 100% of the time when you engage its lock. When you push that lever back to 2WD it's instantly unlocked. No CAD collar to hang up or vacuum issues. A much simpler system with no failures. Being I own one of both system the 1996 Dodge is CAD axle and my 2002 Dodge is NON-CAD axle. I've had to replace the one on my 1996 and its a NAP unit. Still having issues with hanging CAD ring on release. It'll engage fine but you must stop and back up to release this on. It was doing this before the change and after as well.

  19. Don't believe it. Ive got a college degree in Electronics and Computer Science from ITT Tech. Cost me over $50,000 and today that piece of paper isn't worth a penny. Everything I studied and went to school for no longer exist. Transistor radios, Analog TV's and IBM computer with 8088 processor. 1980s stuff... Lol...
  20. More metal, more weight. Rubber has less density than metal. But don't let this blind you. Wider faced tires contain more metal belting than a narrow faced tire. So when I compared 235 vs a 265 on both 16 inch rim was a fair measure and shedding 23 pounds of weight. Now changing the wheel added the weight back where you lost in the width of the steel belt.
  21. Now that I'm at home and at a computer. I was on my cellphone all day. (Sorry about that...) I guess this a new thing to me to see a steering wheel control interface. https://axxessinterfaces.com/product/ASWC-1?Year=2005&Make=Dodge&Model=Ram+2500 Beyond that I've got no idea... Never seen or played with anything like this. All I can say is buy and try it. I'm going to have to admit I'm green to this and never heard of anyone using this before.
  22. No timing. No fuel management. No boost fooling. What do you expect? Mine is no different it doggy and slow even with +75HP injectors and no Quadzilla. Really smoke on launches. Still laggy... Now plug the Quadzilla in I've got a timing curve to enhance spooling, fuel management to get the turbo to spool not spew black smoke. Then boost fooler so you can exceed 19 PSI of boost. Then if you want to go farther just turn on a level 4 and above now you got a wiretap and even more fuel. Still, even with all this, I've got no real smoke. Maybe a haze and puff. No matter what you'll need something for fuel management and timing management. Canned tuner like Edge and Smarty are very limited and not designed for setup beyond stock really. They do give some adjustments for fuel management (for smoke control).
  23. NV5600 is the magic word. Soon as you say 6 speed it goes up in price fast. Then...New Venture (New Process) closed down after 124 years of service. Since 6 speeds only made for Dodge and very small year range the part is hard to come by. 5 Speeds are plentiful because of the usage in Chevy as well Dodge trucks and for a much wider range of time. There are more remanufactured parts for the 5 speed today than the 6 speed.
