Review on Stant Stainless Steel OE Thermostat by Brandon Page

Very good value for money. I asked the shop to put a new water pump and thermostat in my 2006 Dodge Ram 1500. They used an OEM thermostat at 205 degrees which made the truck run warmer than usual. The temperature sensor stays halfway or rises about 1/8 inch over halfway. When driving uphill with a loaded trailer, the temperature rose to about 3/4 or more on the scale. With this thermostat the temperature now stays below halfway about 1/8 inch, and while going down the same slope it reaches about halfway but doesn't exceed it. Pretty easy to install if you watch a video on the 1Aauto.com website on how to replace the thermostat on these 2006 Hemi 5.7 engines. I used a 13 socket and an adjustable clamp pliers. would recommend.
