    Very disappointed with Putco Led Bulbs

    I run supernova v.2 bulbs that I got from headlight revolution. I've had them in since I first got the truck. Now have 20k miles on it. I've hit a dear at 12k destroying the headlights and front end. Told the shop when they replaced the headlights to put the leds back in as they still worked...

    Rattle or tick at start up.

    What's a set of headers cost 300-$500. Depending on what you buy. I plan on swapping them out any ways bc they already all rusty after one winter of driving. But I'm pretty picky with rust , I spray my undercarriage every oil change with oil. Nothing like a little bit of forced upgrades. Should...

    Rattle or tick at start up.

    For anyone wonder I'm running schaeffer's 5w20. Run this same brand of oil in all my sleds atvs and other cars and have yet to have a problem. Sled had 8k miles before being rebuilt (2stroke) and ran a diesel brand new to 300k on the same oil. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rattle or tick at start up.

    Definatly not a broken stud or manifold problem as it didn't do it ever cold start and I looked all over for any signs of leaks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rattle or tick at start up.

    For anyone who has been getting a rattle at start up for around 5-10 seconds, this may help. I have a 2016 ram with 20k miles on it , started to tick only every now and then at startup. I change my oil every 5k miles with high quality oil not the cheap stuff from auto zone. Always used k&n oil...

    My first tow

    Air bags all the way! Installed load lifter 5000 as I didn't like the ones that go inside the coil springs. Tow a 30ft enclosed trailer loaded no problem. Around 20psi in the bags and it's leveled. Well worth the money. Have 18k miles on them have yet to have a problem. Sent from my iPhone...

    New truck, new camper, lots of fun already

    I installed load lifter 5000 air bags in my 2016 ram 1500, tow a 30ft enclosed snowmobile trailer frequently. They are the best mod so far in my opinion if you want to tow with this truck. The rear springs are pretty soft. Yet to have a problem have 18k miles with them in. Sent from my...

    bilstein 5100 level question

    Some people have problems with the 4 wheel drive with them set that high and I would recommend getting a set of after control arms as the stock ones have problems with the ball joint popping out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bigger tires + Gear swap mpg?

    If you go with lower gears it will bring the rpms up higher, burning more fuel. If you keep the stock gears it would probably do fine when you get to speed but be sluggish getting there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What a PITA!

    Everyone has there opinion on oils and what to use. As for me nothing but schaeffer's. Cost just as much to change it my self vs taking it to the dealer. But at the end of the day you know everything is correct. I've left dealerships and checked the lug nuts only to find them hand tight. Sent...

    Wheel offset vs paint....

    Looking at buying some new wheels to install on my 2016 ram 1500. Like the aggressive offset look but not way out there. Looking into something like a -12 offset. What have you guys been seeing long term with running this offset and having **** thrown up on the body? Rock chips , scratches...
