Guidance on how to sell my Viper
Guidance? Don't sell right now. The market is garbage, and you are likely going to be wasting so much time fielding idiots offering you 12 dollars, a rusty bicycle and some used chewing gum that you are going to be wondering why you are even doing it. Its not worth it.- Viper Specialty

Broken fan - What Now
No, I meant that your entire situation was started over a fitting leak, which could have easily been replaced. But instead, hydraulic lines were replaced, which ultimately started your cascade of headaches. Lack of knowledge by both owners and vendors is responsible for literally 99% of these...- Viper Specialty

You're a complete *****. Spending a boatload of money? STICKING WITH OEM AND KNOWING WHAT YOU ARE DOING WOULD HAVE COST LESS THAN 100 BUCKS TO SOLVE ALL OF THIS FROM THE GET GO. But yeah, I'm the one costing people money by telling them to NOT do things or buy things they dont friggen need. G...- Viper Specialty

Actually, you're about as anti-hydraulic as he is, so why don't you spend your time helping him out? I am waaaay over my allotted time for the month trying to save people from themselves.- Viper Specialty

Simple, they all had overheating issues when not traveling at speed. And thats a RAM, with a HUGE radiator and ducting system. Actual numbers aren't published, but I would expect it in the 3500-4500 range. I would estimate you would be in the 1000-1250 range to fix it all properly, pending how...- Viper Specialty

Head Gasket Change
Are you implying that you didnt have or didnt use the alignment dowels that were factory installed, to put the heads and gaskets in the correct position and keep them from moving?- Viper Specialty

And then, you realize you are underestimating things again, like the fact that the fan based hydraulic pump volume and pressure differ from the standard version, both of which will change the steering dynamic and fluid temperatures. Not entirely accurate. A proportioning valve limits the rack...- Viper Specialty

Yes, you are, and you will find out before this is over I imagine. If you are considering half-assed options like external fan controllers that are unable to properly determine actual PCM demands, AC status, etc, then sure, there are easier "generic" methods of doing it incorrectly. How can...- Viper Specialty

The vast majority of those threads that I see, I post in to explain how ridiculous everyone is being. I have literally spent more time than I care to remember trying to get people to stop overreacting to what they dont understand when it comes to the hydraulic fan assemblies and the hydraulic...- Viper Specialty

Youre severely underestimating this. You need to build a relay bank, add all the wiring, fuses, and everything else. NONE of it is there. The G3 Viper was never designed for electric fans. The fitment of a G4 module should be no different. they share the same radiator. I would estimate 40-50...- Viper Specialty

Aint that the truth. FB has made it impossible to find any useful information. I still dont understand why its seemingly so easy to separate a customer from their money doing something they dont need, and then seemingly impossible to separate them from their money when it comes to properly...- Viper Specialty

CFM is not CFM when comparing a 10 horsepower fan to a pair of 1/8 horsepower. That said, if you are going to do it, the easiest method is the Gen4/5 fan shroud assembly. When you need to control it, let me know and we can reconfigure the PCM for relay control instead of hydraulic. I still...- Viper Specialty

You did what so many do, unfortunately. You replaced a small problem with huge problems, and paid a bunch of money to do so. Those aftermarket PS lines are known for failure, and the replacement fittings are known to cause PS PRV issues. Your original pump is surely fine, and your original lines...- Viper Specialty

1. That's because, by design, they are not up to the task. A real crimped hydraulic line and a stainless braided teflon are not created equal. The PRV in the pump should have prevented that possibility in both instances, and you also haven't excluded that the line fittings and PRV in the pump...- Viper Specialty
