need some info 03 ram
just bought an 2003 ram 2500 /auto 2wd v10 96k
anyway just wondering mostly on fluids
what oil - 5w30?
wix oil filter #
tranny never been serviced, what fluid?
what fluid for rear end(limited slip 4.10)?
whats best for spark plugs?
coolant-just reg stuff?
does it have a replaceable fuel filter?
pretty much needs all the tune up stuff
nothin ever done beyond oil changes and air filter on this rig
anything else i should attend to?
thanks
Josh

RE: need some info 03 ram
well figured most of it out
uses the same oil filter as all the other dodges wix 51085
10w30 motor oil is recommend- except extreme cold winter use 5w30
reg copper spark plugs are recommended i used autolite 5224 with antisieze
auto tranny took 5 quarts synthetic atf4 -dropped pan and changed filter only(had reusable gasket)
rear end took 3 quarts full synthetic 75w90 for limited slip- no additive (had reusable gasket)
no replaceable fuel filter
i have yet to do the pcv- apparently its a dealer only item( i got 1 for 01 v10 and no fit)
i gotta do the iac valve-its gunked up and burnt out, apparently thats dealer only as well
cleaned throttle body out- it was caked with sh-t
