Re: 3rd Gen Winch Causing Parasitic Drain on Battery

After the truck has been sitting off for a few hours, see if the winch solenoid is slightly warmer than everything around it. The hand held infrared thermomitors are great for this but your hand may feel the difference if it is draining your battery that fast.

Re: 2007 Winch Parasitic Drain on Battery

When the truck has been sitting unused for a few hours, see if the winch solenoid feels slightly warmer than everything around it. Those handheld infrared thermometers are great for this, but you may feel a difference with your bare hand too if it is draining your battery that fast.

Re: 66RFE transmission with PO735 & PO871 codes

You are going into "Limp mode"
PO735 --> issue with 5th gear ratio
PO871 --> lack of fluid pressure

5th is an overdrive
consider a fluid change... and PO871 is likely coming first and then triggering the PO735 when it tries to shift into OD

Re: Battery time

Don’t let it set directly on concrete, put it on some wood sleepers or will sap any battery PDQ, learned the hard way ☹️ I just set the old battery there to take the picture for posting...

These stock batteries are amazing. Other vehicles I have had barely got 1.5-2 years out of the shitty stock batteries.
Yeah - I'm keeping the Stock Mopar battery in my garage for now - it never failed to start the truck!

Battery time

The OEM original battery just barely turned over and started the truck this morning at 5 below zero. The 7 year old battery never failed me, but I'm not going to push my luck any longer. I've only used the inexpensive Walmart Everstart in everything I own and always get 6 to 10 years out of them. :c...

Re: which tire is standing up the best

I've run 4 sets of the BFG KO or KO2 on various vehicles... They are prone to cupping on the outside lugs and wear faster than you might expect (regardless of what pressures you run them at). :cheers:

Wheel spacers are always a bad idea!

The people that use wheel spacers are the same ones that complain about their Unit Bearings failing...

And yes - post up pics of some of those Mall Crawlers :doh:
