Just to let you know the corrosion on the positive terminal of the battery. Also to do a coolant flush to not use tons of coolant drain and fill with water and drain again and fill with water then drain then fill with pure antifreeze. The water left in the block should give you a 60/40 mix which is good to -40 degrees Celsius 0 degrees Fahrenheit.
Yes, you are correct. However, there is one thing that gets overlooked by most when it comes to the 2008 MY trucks . . . . . . . they are *DIFFERENT* than the 2006/07 and the 2009 and up . . . WTActualF! So, the years should really go (to be 100% accurate with part fitment for both OEM and aftermarket) 2002 - 2005 / 2006 - 2007 / 2008 / 2009 and up Having a one year run of a vehicle is horrible for those of us that would like to some aftermarket stuff. I knew the 06&07 were different than the 02-05 years but had NO idea the 08 would be all by itself. And - before anyone mentions it - NO, not all parts fit. Even though some part manufactures say their part will fit 2002 - 2008 . . . it will *NOT* But anyway. My 2008 4.7 flex fuel has nearly 200k miles (probably will be over 200k by the time I am finished writing this story) on it and has only needed the water pump replaced twice. That thing seems to go right at the 75k-80k mile range.
@@Doublethizzle - Agree...!...and it's even crazier for the 3rd Gen 5.9 Cummins re how the 03-04s actually cut off at 04.5 (wth indeed). Aftermarket parts "fitment" can be quite tricky/aggravating if the vehicle owner and/or the parts guy isn't paying super close attention.
I'm at 121,500 miles on my 3rd gen dodge. Gotta replace my front calipers and front break lines. Tis the season to start working in a garage instead of outside
Adding associated costs would help. Of course it will vary by market, but there are general cost associations that could be helpful to people who have little experience.

+Martin Lavoie Thanks for the tip!
Great vid. I am pretty sure that the 3rd Gen Rams went from 2002-2008 and the 4th Gen's started at 2009?

My 2005 RAM 1500 is at 98k miles right now. This video is perfect for me. My only question is what to do about the air conditioning? THANKS

+zootedsuit Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
my 06 just hit 150k
What should I check for when at 300k
My 04’ just hit 265,000! Getting ready to replace the entire suspension, steering, and maybe an engine swap.

Perfect video. Great info and to the point. Thank you! Following.
What kind of cost could I expect from a good shop for the 100K service??
Awesome vid, Thanks for sharing 👍
The positive battery terminal was corroded
Does that thing have an aluminum control arm? Didn't think it had those in those years
You forgot to inspect the windshield wiper blades. Those are critical.
Hi from dubai. Thanks for great information
+harvrindrsingh Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Good video but would've been helpful to include "Gasoline" in the title given 3rd Gens include the 5.9 Cummins.
Thank you!!!
clean the throttle body.
Ha, my '07 has the same plugs when I bought it new lol. Uppers every 30k miles, Oops lol. It just hit 100k a month ago too lol.

If you make it through 100,000 miles with that thing I suggest you celebrate

Stop moving your hands it’s distracting! However it’s still a good video
+alvin smith Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
If you want knowledge but very distracting hands check out Scotty Kilmer my guy. This guy is not too bad.
Best way to service a Dodge is to sell it. Those cars suck on quality. Fun to drive it they age.
