    realistic towing within the guidelines

    I am going to echo the sentiment here that if you want to tow, then get the V8. This is the case of being a little too big is never a bad thing. We had a 16 1500 with the 5.7 and 3.92. We were at 80-95% of our capacities with our trailer. Within limits, but barely. We upgraded to a truck where...

    What is your tire pressure BF Goodrich all terrain ko2

    I've run 45 unloaded before, and 50 while towing. Now I am too lazy and just leave them at 50. :D

    BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 Tires

    Just wanted to throw my hat in for the K02s as well. I had the factory SRAs fail in spectacular fashion at just over 25k miles, causing over a thousand dollars in damages. Discount Tire saved us and gave us a great deal over Memorial Day Weekend. They tow just find, and the peace of mind is...

    E class tires.

    Imma second K02s. Cost about $1200 OTD with certificates, but SO worth it for towing. What always bothered me about XL tires is I had to run them at MAX pressure. With D or E load range tires, you can look at the chart and run the recommended pressure for the weight you are carrying. Which...

    Towing Setup to Improve 2017 Laramie Longhorn

    I don't tow horses, but I do have a pretty heavy camper. The reason the 1500s sag is because they are coil sprung, which gives a better ride, but doesn't handle heavy loads well. I added some inexpensive air bags to help with the squat: Then I added an Equalizer hitch. I've towed this...

    RamBox Revolver X2 Install & Review

    Zero concerns with luggage in the back of the truck. I've sealed the tailgate gap, and water, at most, would be a few drips. Plus the rails of the bed would keep water away from the luggage itself. However, there is one tonneau I was looking at that would definitely fit the bill. Look for...

    RamBox Revolver X2 Install & Review

    I've been looking at all the available (expen$ive) tonneau cover options for the Rambox model since we bought her new in November of 2016. At the end of February, we decided on the Bak Revolver X2. Now, there are not a lot of pictures or video on installing this tonneau cover on a Rambox...

    Parking Light Switchback Issue

    Just an update. I installed a second set of resistors for the parking lights. I hate running a full-on resistor, but everything is good atm.

    Parking Light Switchback Issue

    Just installed Switchback's in the wife's 2016 and get parking light out messages when I use the turn signals at night. Anyone else have to run double resistors on their 3157s? I ordered another set, but haven't seen a mention of this in any forum...

    Just got a Ram. What mods to do?

    But DONT buy parts that aren't part of your plan because of price. That's just stupid. Didn't realize that wasn't clear enough...

    Just got a Ram. What mods to do?

    First mod for me was the horrible headlights, but I have the 4-ways, so YMMV. Second mod was for my wife. She needed running boards. Third mod because we live in AZ, tinted windows. 4th mod will be a tonneau cover. Start with a destination for your truck, and then stick to the plan. Don't pick...

    Vin number???

    Interesting to note that decoding my VIN did not give me the truck's color.

    Post up your White Ram's !!!!!

    We LOVE LOVE LOVE the LEDs. They are amazing. 90% of the throw of an HID upgrade, but so 200% easier to live with. We got these in H11 form on Aamzon. They would pulse every so often, and sometimes flicker when pulling in to the garage. It was VERY intermittent, but I emailed the seller and...

    Post up your White Ram's !!!!!

    Hey there. New to the RAM family :happy107: Just traded the wife's Sorento on a 2016 1500 Big Horn with the Rambox option. I needed it optioned out for towing so we could buy a camper next year: Already we replaced the weak halogens with LEDs, and the wife needed some sort of running board...
