jimmy jammers

How do you get your door handles off? I am going to install some jimmyjammers but have never taken the handles off, or really looked out the best way to get to the back to do the install.

remove the screws in the panel.
pull panel off
remove the two bolts and the lock latch

Once your door panels are off you peel back the plastic that covers the door and you will see 2 nuts per each handle. Make sure you use a magnetic socket cause if you drop one you could be in trouble. You will also have to un-hook the lock part but thats the same as the hood release clip.

Hmmm........let me find the write up I did last year for this.

A write up would be nice

What are Jimmi Jammers?

The patented Jimmi Jammer™ is an inexpensive yet effective vehicle security product. Protects your vehicle and personal property inside from theft.

* Easy, bolt-on installation, no cutting or drilling
* Comes with installation instructions, window warning labels and hardware if needed
* Several models available
* Made in the U.S.A.

Alarms are great, we recommend getting one, but it is also important to have other vehicle security measures as well. Passive theft deterrents, such as ours, can help protect your property from theft!

The following install was performed on a 2008 Ram Quad Cab.

• 1/4 socket extention

Front Doors

Remove the following:

-phillips screw in sail (by mirror)



-phillips screw by door handle



- 2 phillips screws at bottom of door panel





- door handle (use T-30 or 10MM socket)



Remove door panel. Disconnect the 2 connectors that run to the window switch. Pull the white plastic back from the upper rear corner of the door.

Pic from behind the door panel:



Remove 8MM nut from door handle. Removal of the rearward nut is all that is required. Position the Jimmi Jammer over the handle bolt and shimmy it behind the lock mechanism. The driver's door can be quite tough. It may help to detach the frontward rod.

Installed jimmi jammer (pass side)



Rear Doors

Remove the following:

- door handle (use T-30 or 10MM socket)



-phillips screw by door handle



Remove the door panel and disconnect the single connector by the window switch.

Pic from behind the door panel:



Pull back the plastic door cover from the upper rear of the door.

Remove small plastic cover (oval looking thing on the left)



Install for the rear - no pics. Its VERY tight to see in there, and there was no way to get any good pictures.

Remove 8MM nut from door handle. Removal of the rearward nut is all that is required. You can access this from the small oval section at the rear of the door. Position the Jimmi Jammer over the handle bolt. With your other hand slightly open the door handle from the outside. Slip the jimmi jammer over the top of the mounting stud. You will need to hold the jimmi jammer at a slight angle to get it to drop into place. It may help to detach the inner rod as well.

Thats it!

I gotta sell mine from the 07. I never got around to installing them.

Sweet thanks, it shoukdnt be any differennt with a reg cab doors though right? Never pealed back the plastic peice before.

no they are like the front of the quad cab doors lol

yeah, shouldn't be a problem.

I have a .45 jimmy jammer and a sticker . People still break into cars ? I gotta get to the city more i guess ?

so no bueno

too bad i cant do these... i sealed my doors lol

We just had 5 vehicles today get broken into today in our office complex parking lot, the two trucks next to mine had their handels popped off and a few others had the locks punched. All during the during office hours. Luckily no one in our office had them punched in

the fronts were the hardest, as they didn't want to loop over the lock - so it was a bit tougher. It would probably be easier for you skinny farts who can contort your body.

In the end....I didn't get a set for the new truck - if they want it bad enough, they'll break the glass.

If they want to break the glass, let them, it'll set off the alarm (well opening the door would too) and my alarm would page me and I'd be out the door. Windows (I would assume) would be an easier fix than having to fix a dented door from them prying the handle off or punching the lock out.

My truck doesn't look good enough to break into. So I'm safe. lol yea I know nobody is safe.

it's so easy i did it in under an hr and a half
