I graduated High School in 1983. The New Dodges were not all that cool as I left school but the Macho Power Wagons were a few years old then and still were popular enough to see them occasionally.
The 1977-78 models were my favorite...that grille is spectacular.
The Macho trucks were all...
I call the NAPA store and the man asks...."Which engine?"
Uhhh....
Does it matter? I'll bet that it does not but the counter man with experience already knows and bypasses these questions.
I can't be hard on the guy...This is a 49 year old truck and he is maybe....25?
The truck has had a...
I'm in a place that I never thought I'd be.
For years, I've had classic cars as projects and fun cars. I'd go to the self service junkyards to look for parts for repairs or upgrades. In the 90s, I'd hit all the local spots to keep my Darts and Dusters going.
Some time in the late 90s, early...
Some say that a longer wheelbase is better for stability when towing. I can understand that.
My truck is a 2007 Ram 1500.
It is still in great shape for having almost 400,000 miles.
Original 5.7, original 545 but the axle gears were changed from 3.55 to 3.92 a couple years ago.
Last year I...
Yesterday I took the 2007 Ram in for the emission testing that is due every 2 years. It failed.
Why? It had no open codes. No MILs....the MIL is Mopar speak for Malfunction Indicator Light. Most people have adopted the Chevrolet term...."Check engine" light since that started with Chevrolets in...
We have all had friends that eventually got too much to take.
Over the last several years, I have noticed something about people that has affected how much I am willing to tolerate.
SOME people talk about themselves too damned much.
To me, the most interesting person is the one that engages...
What the hell has happened to these companies? How much money are they saving by not including a good set of instructions in the package?
Here's the problem:
A man goes to install an ice maker in his fridge.
A man goes to install a garage door opener.
A man goes to install a porch light.
A man...
In 2013, I got this truck....
By the condition, you can tell it was an "Old Man's Truck". I stripped off the trim, camper shell, flares and did the bodywork...
I added the 1977-78 grille because I like that style better.
It is an original 440 and was originally a 4 speed. I...
I've been the original owner of this truck since just before Thanksgiving 2007:
It is an SLT model in the short bed, regular cab configuration. It has the 5.7, the 545 trans and 3.92 gears in the original 9 1/4" axle.
It has been a great truck and I intend to keep it.
For a few months, I've...
Hello everyone,
I've been a member for awhile but haven't posted much. I'm mostly into the classics. I do have a 1975 Power Wagon and a 2007 Ram 1500 but my classics take up most of my "car time". I have a couple of 1970 Chargers, a couple Darts and Dusters too. I love the classic Mopar styling...
I have a fiberglass LEER brand tonneau cover that I do not need anymore. I had it on my 2006, then 2007 Ram. It fits the short bed model. Approx 6'2" bed size. I have the key and hardware brackets to secure the cover to the bed. Lift cylinders still work.
It was originally blue but was repainted...

Hey guys, I have a factory 4 speed transmission from my full time 4wd 1975 Power Wagon. It has a 440 bellhousing, flywheel, clutch and pressure plate and the clutch linkage. Clutch was fine when I pulled this out to change to an automatic. I would replace it though since clutch jobs in 4 wheel...
