Get ready to lose some gas mileage with the 35" tires and a leveling kit. I dropped 2-3 mpg.

Really? Even with the 3.92s you lost that much? I was hoping to gain a little back in the top end since it offsets the 3.92 ratio

You gain speed in the top end, but gas mileage is still crap. Hopefully when my buddy tunes it for me I'll Notice more. I had another buddy by the hemifever tune, and it didn't really make much difference to his power or anything. My buddy custom tunes with a sniffer, so 100$ vs 500$... I'll try the 100. Haha.

Yea no kidding. Hopefully it helps. I'm hoping to have all my performance stuff done first anyways. Sb intake carven exhaust and possibly 2.5" pipes without resonators. And the biggest improvement I'm looking at for power is custom painting the ram emblems :p I heard 20 hp from those

Can you buy those? Or is it a custom job. They look sick. I wouldn't mind that. I didn't think about painting mine black, I may work on that

I'm going to try pd and some nail polish first. That way it's easy to remove...

I might try that. I still have some plasti dip left. Might be hard to find the nail polish.

where did you get black headlights?


Chrysler dealership was selling them. Somebody wanted chrome and swapped out. Or that's what I was told

Swapped some of my lights to led. Only ones not led are the breaklights. Reverse is the big led. Cargo is the small one. Center brake light is led as well. And license plate. Cab dome light is led. The reverse light being led is amazing. I wanted to add in a bar for reverse but with this there's no need.

Not bad. Those are a lot bigger than the ones I have in mine right now.

It's the same size as the factory bulb. But a heck of a lot brighter.

In the process of plastidipping my rear emblem. Picked up red nail polish to fill in what was originally black wanting to match the hemi red on the side emblem

Front emblem removed to spray. Sticky 3m pad in the center on the back almost got the best of me
