Default new 8.0 motor




took my truck into the stealership a couple of weeks because the motor started vibrating really bad and tranny was down shifting reallyhard for no reason. Finally got a call back today and they told me i have acracked cylinder wall and there waiting on the dodge rep to show up to look at the truck. The foremantold me that theywere going to replace the motor and probably the tranny. Thank god for the extended warranty.
