Headlight question for a 1997 Dodge Ram 3500 please

From : hvac fella

Q: steve lusardi wrote avoid the automatics. the engine torque in combination with high load toasts the clutches. even the standard clutch with the manual gear can be suspect under severe load. a dual disk clutch would resolve the problem but they are grabby and harder to drive. the problem is exagerated with increased power with either the power chips or later model engines. however they are still the best there is at the moment. a good but expensive solution to this would be to replace the transmission with an allison like a lot of medium duty trucks use. that would put an end to most of your transmission worries but it would knock your wallet for a loop. ap have you seen an alison in a dodge ram thats a combo i would love to get! .

howdy friend wrote on my 1997 ram van 3500 theres a fuse box in the engine right at the front and a fuse box in the glove compartment. why do you keep changing and concealing your identity dave formerly daveinillinois@webtv.net . dont you want your customers to find the hack that fucked their air conditioning up are you going to dish out lethal advice in here like you did in alt.hvac how is it that such a jack-of-all-trades can be such a master of none its true what they say. a little knowleddge is a dangerous thing! you seem to specialise in little knowledge as well as little boys i hear. you can run but you cant hide! -- my part-time website is at http//5110.sytes.net the full-time one is at http//www.geocities.com/spmf38 but theres no techsection there. .
