Up for auction is my 1998 Dodge 2500 Extended Cab 4x4 pickup. Truck has the NV4500 5 speed trannsmission. 3.55 gears with a posi rear end. I got the truck back in 2010 and have only put about 7k miles on it in 3 years. I bought it from a guy in Stephens City VA. And he said he bought it local.
I don't need this much truck anymore so I am selling it. Red Oak performance injectors. S+B Intake with 4" exhaust. Timing is bumped to 15.5 degrees and fuel plate was cut by Lloyd at Mid Atlantic Diesel Performance. As soon as I got it back from him I put in a Valair 13" Kevlar/Ceramic clutch with upgraded hydraulics. Ranch Hand Bullnose bumper.Replaced front control arm bushings with urethane same with motor mounts.
New tranny mount. New heater core. 4x4 Posi-lok kit so you don't have to worry about it going into 4 wheel drive. Pull the cable and pull the lever and it goes in everytime. New fuel hoses and removed fuel heater. New shut off solenoid and relay. Boost and pyro gauges. Adjusted the valves last summer and new valve cover gaskets. New brake pads last summer. 305/70/16 Kumho Road Venture AT tires have 90% left on front about 60% on rear. New track bar so no shimmy. You can go down the road at 90mph if you want to. Overfilled the tranny with synthetic NV4500 fluid. Lifetime alignment through Firestone. Leveling kit with sway bar kit are new in the box and go with the truck. Also have the stock air filter and valve cover piece. New crank sensor, water pumpp bearing and fan shroud last summer.
A/C has a leak in a line but will hold a charge for amonth or so. Blows cold when systenm is full. I loaded system with dye last summer but never fixed the leak. Power windows and locks work fine. I put in low mile power seats but the only work forward and back, probably need to wire them to work all the way around. Steam cleaned all seats and carpet last summer. I know I am forgetting some stuff. Truck has always gotten whatever it needed and never has been worked hard. The most I ever pulled with it was about a 6000# car trailer. The only rust on the truck is in the pictures and looks worse than it really is.
Overall a good truck that will probably go another 250k miles as-is if you keep it up.
No reserve.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
NHTSA investigating 110,000 Ram 2500s and 3500s, one death alleged
Fri, 23 May 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has launched an investigation focusing on 110,000 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups from model years 2004 to 2006. One death has already been reported, according to NHTSA, due to a potential fault with the clutch interlocks on manual-transmission versions of the heavy duty pickup.
According to the report, these trucks can be started without depressing the clutch. There have been three reports so far, and as we mentioned above, one very sad incident seems to have resulted in the death of a child.
"One complaint involved an incident that occurred when a child was able to enter the vehicle and start the ignition without depressing the clutch. The vehicle then moved forward striking another child resulting in a fatality," NHTSA said in the investigation bulletin, which you can view below.
What's the deal with Chrysler demanding colleges crush their Vipers? [w/video]
Fri, 07 Mar 2014Students and teachers at a Washington community college are up in arms following an order from Chrysler that it must destroy the pre-production Dodge Viper that was donated to the school's automotive technology program ten years ago.
The Viper in question is said to be the fourth off the production line, based on its VIN, and has had its emissions controls disabled, allowing its ten-cylinder engine to produce 600 horsepower, according to a report from Yahoo! Autos. As one of the first Vipers ever produced, the school's AT instructors claim it could be worth $250,000 in a museum, while a local news report purports that Jay Leno once tried to purchase the car, but the sale was prevented by Chrysler.
As pointed out by our friends at Autobytel, though, there are a lot of things in this story that don't quite add up. Immediately noticeable from the news report embedded below - which shows the car at South Puget Sound Community College - is that the car in question is not a 1992 model. When the Viper went on sale in 1992, it was only available as an RT/10 with a (flimsy) soft top, like the red car shown above. But the car featured in the report from KING5 News (inset image) is clearly a hardtop Viper GTS, which didn't enter production until 1996. And even if, as reported by a local newspaper, the hardtop featured is a prototype, it doesn't explain the lack of another iconic feature of the first Vipers - their distinctive side pipes. This kind of pokes holes in the school's argument that this is the fourth Viper to ever roll down the line. At best, this appears to be a pre-production Viper GTS.
