Does knipex sell straight jaw channel lock pliers with teeth? They have the water pump pliers with the notching designed specifically for nuts but I find the notches incredibly annoying and far less convenient than straight jaw, and I don’t need a smooth jaw since I’m just using a dedicated wrench for anything like that anyway.

I’m looking for something like the Milwaukee channel locks, I find myself needing a small set of pliers often but the don’t bite quite as well as I’d like.

2011 Ram 1500 5.7 hemi

Pretty new to me truck, did the first oil change today and saw this. Is there any way I can just replace the boot? It rides totally fine and doesn’t make any noises and a new axle shaft is a bit steep for me at the moment.

Also if anyone is able to name what the torn rubber accordion is specifically, that would be supremely helpful

2011 Sport 1500, this is early in my ownership of this truck so I’m still trying to figure out the quirks.

It’s only happened twice now but coming to a stop it’s stalled out(it is an automatic), once turning to back into a parking spot and once at a stop sign. I’ll notice a bit of an irregular idle sometimes but still nothing crazy and I mostly wrote it off.

Are there any common culprits yall have seen for this? Quick google search suggested idle air control valve or dirty throttle body

Looking at 7.3 powerstrokes in my area theres as many, if not more, F450s compared to the F250s and far more with the ZF6 which I’m looking for. Plus the F450s generally have a lower initial cost for some reason

My question isn’t so much what the differences are between them but what cost of ownership looks like. Between two given identical models of an F250 and F450, how much more expensive would a 450 be? I don’t care much about a bumpy ride or if there’s fewer interior options.
