  • We clean the interior and exterior on the Federal 1993 Dodge Ram350 turbo diesel Cummins and do some much needed work to the wiring. Also we do a little something to improve the look of the truck! As always, appreciate the support, and enjoy!

    You'd be surprised how well that carpet will come up with a proper deep clean. Take it out, give it a go over with the pressure washer and soap, then degreaser and a steam vacuum.

      Simple Green is an excellent degreaser... put it on fully concentrated out in the warm sun and let it sit for a few minutes, then use a drill-powered scrubber on it and rinse with a low-powered pressure cleaner. Repeat if necessary when extremely dirty. Then use a steamer vacuum on it and your carpet will look as good as it's ever going to get again.

    jump start is common in sleeper cabs and RV's that have a separate battery setup to run lights, heaters, tv's and charge phones etc. But if you kill your main starting battery you can use your Sleeper batteries to "Jump" your main starting battery.

    The old 93 Ram 3500 looks pretty good. A little bit of boffin to the paint, paint the tailgate. Fix a tiny bit of rusty issue above those rear doors and it's gonna look awesome. It's a nice look and truck. And very rare. You don't see a lot of those rams with a sleeper conversion. It's actually kind of cool

    Quite the turn around on the looks. Wash did a good job. Seats come back pretty decent too. But, still could use a solid steam clean on the interior. Even still, would drive that truck in a heartbeat. Throw a gooseneck on her and run 'er down the highway with a big frickin smile on my face. Waylon on the deck, and a hound on the seat cover. Would have gone with sandblasting the wheels and a shot of ardent silver though. Loving this build, and still believe it was a horse hauler. Big comfy seats meant for the long drives.

    The relays that the "jumpstart" button activate look like the grid heater relays. They are activated by ground closing the circuit to allow power to cross and heat the grid. When the PCM ground would go out on the second gens you just ran a wire from battery ground to switch and switch to the relay. Once the button is pushed the circuit is closed. Look up grid heater relays and you'll see what i mean.

  • @Really-AintBuyn-nit

    One wire alternators are the way to go from what I have heard. The PCM has the voltage regulator built in it. I think the TPS on the autos feeds into it, maybe just for the overdrive. It may have something to do with the AC too. That VR you found on the passenger side was not original. Lots of info out there. CutterupRob has a good video on how to convert your alternator into a 1 wire. I'm not on telescope.

      Hey, Dodge has something in common with the old Soviet Union. Apart from the legendary12-valve Cummins and the 727-based transmissions, the rest of the truck may as well have been built in Soviet Russia.
