    Gen 2 Tires

    Just about time to change my 12 year old original tires. Only 8k miles but getting a bit hard. I really like Michelins, but what are you all changing to? Don't track the car at all, but I do want good grip. Opinions?

    Gen V & Challenger Hellcat

    So it appears to be official that the 2015 SRT Challenger Hellcat will have 600 HP+. What does everyone make of this? I almost expect the "refresh" for Viper to have to include a power increase now. I know they are completely different cars, but HP is a major factor regardless. I cannot imagine...

    Gen V Seat Wear?

    We all know that the new seats look much better than previous generations, but how have they been wearing for everyone? Any photos from those with some miles on their Gen V's? Just curious, thanks!

    Survey - '02 RT/10 or '13 SRT?

    I know that opinions will vary, but I'm considering selling my '02 RT/10 and getting a '13 SRT. What do you think about pros and cons? I haven't won the lottery, so money is a major consideration. This will be a $40-$50k upgrade. Worth it? Input appreciated. Thanks!

    Gen 2 Hard Top Latch Drawings?

    Hi, So I had one of those exciting moments, driving down the highway when my right front top latch decided it didn't want to cooperate any longer. Thankfully, my wife was in the passenger seat and grabbed the top to hold it down. We were close to home, so everything was fine...

    Gen II Or Gen IV?

    So I'm thinking about selling my '02 RT/10 and upgrading to a Gen IV ACR. I have driven a late model ACR and really liked it, but I don't know that I could part with the "rudeness" of my Gen II. It is a bit louder, seems to rumble more and just is a little more brutal in my opinion. I really...

    Gen V Wheel Time?

    For those of us that weren't able to go to the last VOI, does anyone know if SRT or anyone else is offering any opportunities to drive the Gen V? I don't know if any of the driving schools will them or not (evidently Petty Racing instructors were part of the SRT Dealers orientation), but I...

    Another Crank Pulley / Harmonic Balancer Slip Instance

    Finally completely diagnosed my issue (for those of you that saw my other thread). I was hoping that my belt just had a structural failure, but found that my harmonic balancer / crank pulley has begun to slip. It didn't come off nor did I even run it long enough with the issue to have it move...

    Gen 2 Power Steering Issues

    Believe that I lost the power steering pump while driving today. '02 RT/10 with 7k miles.Steering got heavy, so I pulled over and checked under the hood. The pump had seized and that actually was enough to stop the entire belt from turning (I thought it would have just been spnning around the...

    Thank You SRT and Ralph Gilles!

    Thank you for keeping our beloved car alive. I was at the gala and couldn't resist seeing the GTS & GTS-R again at the auto show a couple of days later. I'm quite glad I did as I arrived just in time to see the GTS rumble through the middle of the show at 11 A.M. after an appearance at the Today...

    Emissions Code

    I recently pulled my fuel tank to replace the sending unit, as my fuel gauge was INOP. After re-installing it, everything was fine. After 50 miles or so, the SES light came on. It was an EVAP purge valve fault. I cleared it with a cheap scanner, but it came back after 10 miles or so. I then used...

    SRT-10 Ram

    Hey...so I'm half thinking of getting an SRT Ram. Looking at a silver '04. 5k miles. What would most of you be willing to pay for something along these lines? Also...don't know how long I'd hold on to it, may turn around and sell it after I have it for awhile. How's the market for these? Any of...

    Hood Springs

    Has anyone ever replaced their own hood springs? My hood never really wanted to stay up on it's own, so I bought 2 new ones from Dodge. Put them on last weekend and they seem just about the same as before. I know they should be better. Any tips/tricks from those of you who have done this? I know...

    Hood Springs- Part #?

    Does anyone know Dodge's part number for the hood springs. Mine have become weak and barely hold the hood up and I want to replace them but my local dealer had a hard time finding the part number. Are they sold as the springs alone or with the bracket that mounts to the frame and hood hinge...

    Fuel Gauge Inop.

    Anyone encountered a problem with an inoperative fuel gauge? The car was involved in an accident and now the gauge reads full at all times. Tried filling and moving and turning to move the fuel around hoping to correct with no luck. Is there a fuse maybe I should be looking for? Didn't see...

    Alternator Pulley

    Hi...does anyone happen to have a stock Gen.2 alternator pulley they'd want to sell? If so, please PM me. Maybe you upgraded to an underdrive. I'd entertain buying the entire alternator if the price is right. Thanks.

    The Famous Wax Question

    What is everyone's favorite wax for their car? I've used Zaino on another car of mine, but didn't know if I wanted to continue using it on the Viper or if someone had better luck with another. Thanks.

    RT/10 Back Glass

    I know I spent forever trying to find a nice piece of glass for my RT/10. I finally found one at Don Scharf Automotive. I believe they still have another new one available, complete with new weatherstrip/gasket. Give Mike H a call there if you are interested at 1-800-338-4002. Great for other...

    Tech Q...Draining Fuel

    I'm trying to drain some 2+ year old gas out of my '02 RT/10. I've disconnected the fuel line at the dash as the service manual directs. When I turn the key, only a spirt come out. I'm sure it is sensing low pressure. Then I go to the relay in the trunk for the pump. I shorted 12V to the...

    Headlight Protection

    I was wondering if anyone has had good luck with any kind of headlight film to protect their headlights from scratches, scrapes, etc? I've seen the smoke and yellow films on ebay from time to time. I'm looking for just a clear film, no colors. It'll be for a Gen.2. Any recommendations of where...

    Gen 2 RT/10 Rear Window

    Does anyone have any advice as far as where I can find a rear window and hardware (latches/locks) for a Gen.2 RT/10. They're next to impossible to find as I'm sure everyone knows. Anyone personally have or know where I can get one? Thanks.
