Why did they ever grab EGR from the soot side of the exhaust was the epitome of the dumbest decisions ever it just wrecks the intake of the cylinder head and the Cummins design is the furthest you can get from ease of cleaning almost next to impossible with out pushing chunks into valve seats and combustion chamber. There is no reason for not grabbing EGR gases after the dam dpf! 😡🤬🤯

One other thing to check on the engine, do the jiggle test on the electrical connection for the air intake heater grid. If that thing is loose you could lose a bolt nut that gets sucked into cylinder 6 and can ruin your engine!

When my 2018 Ram 2500 tradesman had 9000 miles on it I upgraded everything that kills these trucks and studded the motor. Also added a deep trans pan, trans case brace and deleted the trans coolant block. Super happy with this truck. 18-19 city, 24-26 hwy and 13-14 towing my 11k pound fifth wheel.

Got 2017 that I picked up brand new with 9 miles on it. Rolled 96500 today, no issues so far. Only been back to the dealership once for a transmission pan leaking from the factory rtv not sealed correctly at the rear of the pan. Has been just about the best truck I've ever owned. Fuel mileage is better than you would expect for a vehicle that weights this much. Consistently around 18.5 mpg, even with larger than factory tires.

We would just delete the codes and keep rolling. Went limp several times. Had to replace the turbo at 98k, did a fas fuel system sb intake and that’s when we did the delete. we replaced the transmission with a stage 3 fully rebuilt at 101k miles and the truck is day and night , 21k$ later I highly recommend. lmao oh yeah the key fob still sucks 😂😂

Depends on the failure and the condition of the turbo. If the selector gear has full travel and you failure is actuator related, then just a actuator replacement is what the doctor ordered. Cleaning of that turbo also helps to keep that selector gear moving well.

I own a 2012 ram 2500 had original 6,7 Cummins in it. I blew up my engine and traded it off for some boot and received a 2014 6.7 to install. After investigation I found the the '14 will mechanically fit into my truck but it will not plug in. the plugs on the '14 engine I now have don't fit the wire harness plugs in my '12 truck. Unable to go back on the trade, long story, but im looking into finding another engine to purchase to get back into my truck. Overall, my main question that I'm needing experienced professional help with is, what year, model ram can I pull a compatible engine out of that will fit and plug into my 2012 2500. I have heard "10-"13 2500 engines will work. I have heard only '11-'12 2500 engines will work. I have heard '11-'12 3500 engines will work but nothing 4500 or bigger. I need some professional help here. I've already made a mistake once, I have to get this truck back on the road and I don't want to dig any deeper without correct direction. Thank you for what you all do, and any help, advice, or referrals in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

I've had 2 issues: the factory tires made the truck vibrant and ride terrible and the thermostat stuck open around 30000 miles and was fixed under warranty. I noticed your 18 has the lever on the floor for the 4x4 while my 18 has a dial on the dash. My truck was built October of 18 what mouth was yours built?

When did they put Clearance Lights on the 3/4 ton 2500? I thought they were only on 1 ton 3500 and above for DOT regulations

Currently looking at a Ram, ‘16 3500 SRW. 97K miles. I noticed a skip in the steering wheel when entering on ramp to hwy. ( pavement was wet ) the wheel pulsates a little. ? Idk what it is. probe with a bar? Not sure about tranny 6 psd for sure. Can I find this in vin? I’ll do some more crawling around before the next drive. Sure appreciate your input and observations in Video. I just subscribed.

Ram 2500's solid live front axle does not corner like IFS if that is what you are familiar with. You'll find that you are either getting over steer feedback from the wheel or understeer feedback. You'll not find s sweet spot or fulcrum from steering feedback. You'll constantly feel like you are oscillating between under and over steer. It is a the trait of this front end. The tranny takes time to learn. It does not behave like a Allison but it is still a good transmission.

Everything we discussed here applies, if it is a auto truck make sure before you purchase that there are no transmission related issues.

I currently have a Keystone Montana 10,200 lbs, I was towing it with a 2006 Chevy 2500 HD 4x4, it was wrecked. I'm have a lot of trouble understanding the all the in's and out's of the GVWR ( towing capacity). I'm looking at buying a used 2016 3500 Dully 4x4 Diesel or gasoline, I want the Dully for the stability. I have had chats with different people on different sites and it just leads to more confusion, I have never owned a diesel truck before, and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Gvwr isn't the towing capacity. Gvwr includes the weight of the truck. I.e., if the truck weights 7,000 lbs and has a gvwr of 20,000 lbs you have a capacity of 13,000 lbs.

Thanks for the video. I recently purchased a 2015 2500 with 100000 miles, 68RFE, and noitice what feels like gear lash in the drive train when on and off the throttle. Other owners say they have the same, even on newer trucks. My 2001 with the same miles and Dana axles is rock solid, could it be the American axles? U-joints and everything else under the truck is tight.

My ABS and traction light comes on and off, dealer says it’s the ABS electronic hydraulic control unit is bad, they are on back order and can’t get it until at least January of 2023. It’s aggravating cause it alarms all the time and the cruise can’t be set when alarm is on and it will kick out the cruise of set and alarm comes up. Hope it helps ya.
