Picked up my new 2017 Longhorn 4x4 last week and LOVE it as it is my first Ram Truck. Traded in my 2015 Durango R/T on it so I am familiar with the mighty 5.7 Hemi and 8 speed combo. My first mod was installing Bakflip MX4 bed cover soon to be followed by Billettech oil catch can. I need advice on what are the best mud flaps with my factory flares and running boards WITHOUT any drilling. I will not be doing any serious off-roading so just looking to keep road crap and dirt off of my boards and fenders. Also what other mods are essential?
Thanks,
Banjo

Welcome... you had me google something related to a car part... I haven't had to do that in years. I had no idea what a "Billet tech oil catch can" was.

Congrats! We need to see some pictures though.

What radio is in your 2017 longhorn? 8.4" Ra3 or 8.4" RA4 (NAV)?

Q: if so, any chance you are willing to use the dealer menu on the radio to tell us the part number of that 2017 RA4 vp4-NA radio (with nav) for my RA4 FW Info thread?

If you have the dual zone, it will just use both buttons on the driver side + Front defrost...

* Dealer Mode (Use this to identify your Radio's P/N and S/N !)
.. Hold Hot+Cold+Front defrost buttons for 5 seconds

The part number on my 8.4" RA4 is 68270661AE

Is there any way you could transfer this thread back to the General Discussion Forum so I could possibly get some answers to my questions?

Thanks for that info! Do you know the Software version? ie 16.23.21 or similar.

Fyi, I'm not a moderator (that's our vendor name linked below).

I can mention one or two with the 'at' symbol to get their attention ...
