  1. Leaking axle seal?

    Wow! Delivered my truck to the dealer for the front axle repair on April 8th an got it back yesterday. 19 Weeks Down! Finally convinced them and FCA to change out the entire front axle and it was completed yesterday. Apparently FCA kept sending axle parts for a gas version of the 210M axle which...
  2. Leaking axle seal?

    I don’t have to explain anything. 1. I offered a possibility for the leaks. 2. Take that possibility or leave it, I don’t give a shit. 3. Again the realm of possibility is the person installing the new axle buggered the job. 4. If someone offers an opinion, no explanation is required - it is...
  3. Leaking axle seal?

    I think the issue with the RR seal leak is not a parts or machining issue but rather an install issue. Probably done by robots and something in the install was damaging the seal due to robot wear, or parameters not set quite properly.
  4. Leaking axle seal?

    No, it is because the stub shaft is too short.
  5. Here we go again

    I bought the diesel for every other reason than fuel economy. The mpg is just a bonus and I really don’t care if it ever “pays” for itself. To me, that is a poor reason to buy the diesel.
  6. Leaking axle seal?

    Further info on this saga, and what a tale of woe this is. The dealer ordered the axle shaft (more on this shaft later) and the box was delivered by UPS with axle shaft missing. UPS couldn’t find it so FCC ordered another dealer who had the only one in stock in Canada to sent the shaft to my...
  7. High Altitude axles. Rubi or Mohave knuckles?

    My 2021 HA has Dana 210M wide on the front and 220M wide rear. I believe these are cast knuckles but just from a visual.
  8. Lots are mostly empty of new vehicles!

    Same thing here in Alberta. Dealers that normally have 200-250 Ram trucks on the lot have only 10-25, and no more coming until 2022 models arrive. There are no discounts available either.
  9. 2021 Jeep Frustrated & Disappointed Owner

    I feel for you. I’m at 8 weeks with truck at the dealer waiting for a front axle shaft. The wrong shaft - too short - was installed at the factory. We don’t have lemon laws here. The government is in the pockets of car salesmen politicians.
  10. FCA free touch up paint

    Tell you what, you eat the dog shit but send me the dark chocolate. PM me if interested.
  11. I can end any rain drought.

    Cool story!
  12. I can end any rain drought.

    I think you have to remember the weather people talk about 30% moisture really means moisture will happen for 30% of the day.
  13. FCA free touch up paint

    Dealer provided upgrade warranty that I paid for. 6 years 125,000 km. It provides for all parking lot type damage repairs included.
  14. FCA free touch up paint

    If they send it I won’t need it for 5 years. My extended warranty covers all touch-ups as required.
  15. Chip shortage myth?

    Ford F series. Ford executive meeting: “Hey lets park 110,000 trucks and tell everyone we don’t have chips. This should be good for business because we can discount them 30% when the new model comes out”. Meanwhile those of us that wear ball caps see that there are 6 new semi-conductor plants...
  16. Dealership won’t flash the speedometer to match tire size. What now?

    One reason I bought the Tazer is for the high idle function especially (imo) needed for a diesel. And since my trial settings using speed radars for calibrations seems to be dead-on now, I know the tire size setting that works.
  17. Dealership won’t flash the speedometer to match tire size. What now?

    Yes, and I’d love to do that but the problem I have is a buggered back. I can’t contort myself to get to the SGW connectors so that is why I got the extension cables to hang down and then plug the Tazer in at bottom of steering column height. A local shop guy plugged the extension cable in for...
  18. Dealership won’t flash the speedometer to match tire size. What now?

    Shadows, I have an extension cable for my Tazer. When I unmarry and remove to go to the dealer the SGM is also disconnected. Do you know of a blank module to connect that will complete the original circuit?
