Is the Dodge dealership a good place to have mods done. I would not think of bringing the truck to any other place to work on the engine, is that normal? This is such a great forum.

 

I say do it yourself. But if that is not possible, then find a good local mechanic that you can trust and that is willing to do custom work, and he will become familiar with your vehicle over time as you take it to him for various mods.

If you could get a dealership to agree to even do aftermarket work, they would be a good place to go. The mechanics are usually very knowledgable, but dealerships tend (in my experience) to not like to work on non-stock vehicles. Don't expect much help later if something they did that is non-stock isn't working out or breaks.

 

I go to a local mechanic that uses genuine mopar fluids and parts like a Dodge dealership. The dealership is expensive. Try 2 find a local mechanic whos speciality is Dodge products and will do aftermarket installation.

 

Thank you SilverDodge, very helpful and I'll keep it in mind to look for a trustful mechanic.

 

Did u find the sticker that lists your transmission type?

 

the dealership is a great place to go if you love to throw all of your money away.

 

Appreciate it jm22876, I will try to locate a mechanic familiar with using Dodge parts.

 

jm22876 I have not yet been under the hood today but was notified the transmission is a 46RE/RH. I do have to continue looking for the PCM Death Flash.

 

timwag2001, I hear what you are saying. Will focus on finding a trustful local mechanic.

 

The dealer wouldn't do anything for you anyways, they only use genuine mopar parts. Also, I would trust any other mechanic over the dealer. The dealer works off commision so they try to get you to buy as many parts as they can. Local mechanics know just as much as dealers, sometimes more it seems [:'(] These engines are VERY simple so theres no need to only have the dealer work on them!!

Do the work yourself, it'll be a learning experiance and we can help you through it. And save you tons of money in the long run. Don't be affraid to start wrenchig
