    Projector Headlights

    Only true way to get good output is with a retrofit. My '13 came with factory projectors but the cutoff wasn't there with just hid drop-ins. I opened the housing and put FX-R projectors in it with Morimoto D2S HID bulbs. You get the the width and reach. With the FX-Rs on high beam and the...

    HVAC Squeaking

    Four Seasons 75817 is the model I chose. I think VDC (spelling) had good reviews but I was in the middle of west coast to east coast and back to west coast road trip and only had a couple of days available for one to get to me.

    HVAC Squeaking

    Super easy. I just changed my own a couple weeks ago when mine started making noise too. Bought one at Rockauto. There are a lot of aftermarket ones you can buy. I attached a photo of the one I bought and haven't had any issues so far. Just make sure you buy the correct one. Manual and Auto...

    Strictly the 4x4 lowering thread...

    2013 Ram CC 4x4 Ground Force 9984 AirLift "Durango" Bags Not the cleanest pics. I first installed the AirLift bags that were made for the Ram but they were too tall and bunched up. I used them that way for a road trip from NorCal to Death Valley thinking that the bags might tear/rip but they...

    Kumho Cragen HT51 275/60R20 Tire Initial Review

    Agreed. Tires are not cheap, especially when you are buying rubber for a Ram, Jeep, Cobra, and a sportbike (street and track tires). It adds up quick. I did review the Mastercraft tires. The Mastercraft Courser HTR Plus is the same tire as the Cooper Discoverer HT Plus. I also looked at the...

    Lift or Lower?

    I have a '13 CC 4x4 that is lowered. I used the Ground Force 2/3 drop. It came with 4 springs and 2 shocks for the rear. I also use Air Lift bags for the rear. 13 RAM CC Lowered 1 by spdfrkaby posted Oct 5, 2018 at 2:14 AM 13 RAM CC Lowered 2 by spdfrkaby posted Oct 5, 2018 at 2:14 AM 13 RAM CC...

    Gas cap light and CEL

    Thread Revival Remembered I never came back to this thread to update the gas cap I used. Attached is the one I used and I've been running it for months now with no CEL popups. Again, the only thing that sucks is it isn't tethered. Stant Part 10838 Gas Cap by spdfrkaby posted Oct 5, 2018 at 2:14 AM

    engine hours and vehicle miles

    Kumho Cragen HT51 275/60R20 Tire Initial Review

    Hey all, well I spent about five hours researching all sorts of all season non-A/T tires to replace my worn out Cooper Discoverer HT Plus tires. I was looking for reviews in the specific areas of wet and snow handling since we will be moving back to the east coast from northern California in the...

    Totaled my 2016 1500... and walked away

    I concur with Rams being dependable in a crash. I'm in a '13 CC now but I was in a '04 Hemi Sport when some trees decided to get in my way. Speedo locked upon impact at 56mph. Only negative gripe was I felt the airbags should of deployed but they didn't. I had an inspector from Dodge come out to...

    Factory rear coil spring length 4x4 RAM 1500?

    Not sure why my photo dropped off so I re-added it. Maybe it'll help someone else down the road. 13 Ram CC Stock Spring by spdfrkaby posted Oct 4, 2018 at 11:35 PM

    Folding Tonneau Covers 2103 Ram 1500 5'7" box

    I have the Gator Evo Bi-Fold Cover. I've had it for maybe 2.5-3'ish years with no issues. It was cheaper than all other options at the time especially with the sale. I think I picked it up for around $430 at the time. They're based out of Florida and it's Free Shipping...

    Gas cap light and CEL

    Had the same issue with a CEL popping up. Ran the code, don't remember the number but it was for a evap leak. I researched and saw that some aftermarket caps were better than others. I ordered one that had good reviews from I think AutoZone. I'll take a look later to see if I can get the exact...

    Morimoto headlights

    Looks sweet, but that is a fat stack of cash. I did the FX-R retrofit and couldn't be happier with the output (both width and distance). The light step up is a little much though. I've been thinking about opening them back up and trying to see if I can squeeze in some LED Cannons in place of the...
