    DIY short arms

    I trashed the poly bushings in my short arms and want some new ones with ball joints on both ends. They all are kind of expensive, if I buy 8 Johnny joints and weld in bungs and some steel is there any money to be saved doing this?

    Ball joints

    I need ball joints for my 2006. Uppers loose on both sides need to replace them before I lose a wheel. Ik carli, emf, dynatrac. All expensive. Then xrf, moog, napa etc. Have already put napa uppers in so need knurled ones. Synergy | 4123KN | Knurled Ball Joint Kit for 2003-2013 Dodge...

    How to: Melt pistons with a 2006 vintage edge hot unlock on a 2006 truck

    Title explains it all. I have a 2006 era edge mounted in a 2006 truck since the truck was pretty much new. Recent got an airdog and it increased hp for sure, then I decided to get the hot unlock code (not the smartest idea ik) to see how hard it would fuel and if the original cp3 was in good...

    Random sputtering.

    On my 2006, stock just an edge (2006 vintage). I get random harsh cutting out/sputtering under acceleration, worse under higher tunes, worse with more throttle. Replaced the FCA today. Thought that fixed it but issue came back. Seems to happen more often on a low tank but does it full also...

    48re weird shift issue while towing

    Hooked up to a trailer today to haul some cows. Gross about 26k Fresh 48re done locally, dpc triple, billet shafts, clutches, transgo, GM solenoid. While towing, under WOT in D. Truck shifts 1, 2, 2 LOCKUP, back to 2, and wont shift into 3rd unless I let off. Haven't had this happen...

    4 speed rpm drop on shifts

    I'm curious what the stock converter and other aftermarket converters drive like. Under light throttle I typically have a 1-200 rpm drop on shifts (1-2 shift typically higher), under full throttle its 3-400. I have a DPC 1800 stall triple (flash stall about 1800 full stall 2100ish) I dont...

    Truck wont drive straight

    I'm having a progressively worse steering problem. My truck will not return to center or drive a straight line. Caster is maxed out and still will wander all over the place. 220k on truck, stock steering box, 2" coils, extend control arms, stock trackbar with poly bushings (junk napa ones but...

    Flexplate runout

    Alright, after failing to rebuild my trans had a shop fo it. Haven't had any problems besides failing solenoids (dont buy them at NAPA ?) BUT truck shakes a bit at idle and theres a good vibration between 1600-1900 rpm, worst at 1900. Most noticeable with the converter locked because it's hard...

    Bad cp3

    My 06 has been acting up for awhile. Last year after fixing the heat exchanger I had a bad problem with water in fuel from condensation, a stuck injector for a bit. Got the water out ran it till now. Now, under acceleration at higher rpms usually with tc unlocked, rpms will go down then back...

    Weird electrical issues

    Recently had the transmission done in my 06. Pretty built works fine, but, yesterday and today I got a CEL and "overdrive solenoid circuit voltage too low" sticking the truck in limp mode. This has happened a couple times but never went into limp mode just clear code and it goes away. Now...

    Edge juice and slip %

    I have a 2006 with a 48re I had built by a shop after I couldn't get it right in 4 tries and ran out of time and willpower. It has an old school edge juice with attitude (circa 2007). When I set it to display slip percentage and roll into it with torque management off I get 1-3% slip for a...

    2-3 bind or axlewrap

    Is the 2-3 shift on a 38re supposed to defuel? Feels like the truck stops accelerating for a split second, or like brakes are tapped almost. I drilled the 2-3 shift homes for firmer shifts. I have 3" blocks also could be axlewrap?

    48re line pressure

    Setting line pressure in my 48re. Just have it on Jack stands atm, in D at idle I'm seeing 125 psi? When it shifts to third I'm seeing 190. I have the cooler lines looped but that shouldn't affect line pressure. Screw is 1/2 turn from flush. With the pan off cycling the key the arm goes...

    New transmission squeal at startup.

    Got my 48re finished and put in today. First startup loud squeal when it fires up. I dont see why it would be coming from the transmission, maybe the new flexplate? I looped the cooler supply and return around to test it since I don't have a cooler yet.
