    ? Bout dash bezel round stereo....

    When you remove the screws, I found it easy to use a small screwdriver and a rag or paper towel to snap those clips out. The rag or towel behind the screwdriver will help lessen the damage to the surrounding dash. Once they are out, just pull and off it comes

    If you don't mind me asking, what type of radio is that? It fits good in that bezel

    Do you still have them? Is it a noticeable difference at night if they effect the beam?

    Ram Sport 20s Plasti Dipped

    You do the black? I'm thinking of doing the Anthracite Grey with Glossifier on the wheels and emblems

    Plasti Dip Gun Metal or Charcoal Grey

    I'm fine with doing PlastiDip bc if I don't like it I can just remove it. I've been looking more at anthracite with the gloss paint too. May do all the chrome with that. Just have to order it

    This is probably a better picture of the truck.

    Plasti Dip Gun Metal or Charcoal Grey

    I have a '06 Ram 1500 Laramie and I'm trying to figure out which route to go for the chrome emblems, grille, and wheels. Which color would look better with my black truck? Kind of iffy about the gun metal gray because it kind of looks like primer to me.

    Spark Plug Change DIY

    I just replaced all 16 this past Sunday. Didn't take me long, maybe 2 hrs at most. Many people have said the driver side is difficult, but it's not really. Again just make sure you drop each thing one at a time into it. I used a very short wobble and a 3" extension all 3/8 drive

    Opinions on upgrade

    I've come to like GMC. I like the new style grille and hood, makes the truck look bigger compared to Ram 1500. I'm sure I can find one of those that are fully loaded. Seen a '12 Laramie Big Horn, that one was fully loaded

    Opinions on upgrade

    Well decided that I won't go for a 2500, just don't need it right now. I've been thinking about a 2010 and up, Ram 1500 or a Sierra 1500. I think I could find a nice truck with some options on it.

    Opinions on upgrade

    Well I just found out I have a dilemma with my 06 1500. The bottom is rusted, it's a northern truck, the front suspension is rusted to the point of being seized so I can't align it. Well my thoughts are to fix it myself, but then I run into another issue with the "what ifs", since it's getting...

    UCA's and shock for 06 1500

    Yeah. My plan is just to repair everything, buy the parts and hopefully use my gf's parents barn. Use a grinder wheel or torch and just cut the bolts. Since I'm down there I'm just going to replace everything that I haven't already. Should be a fun project. Usaf2006-what did you end up doing?

    UCA's and shock for 06 1500

    Well got some bad news today. Mechanic can't align the front because everything is seized. Lower control bushings, tie rods. It's a northern truck so it's seen a lot of salt.

    UCA's and shock for 06 1500

    Replaced the UCA's today. Decided against the struts, it use to be a northern truck so I'm sure the nuts are rusted. So didn't want to mess with it. The install was pretty easy and straight forward. The only difficult problem was taking the nut off the old ball joints. They were bad and just...

    UCA's and shock for 06 1500

    I'm going to rent the compressors from autozone. I just had to buy a impact for the rears. Might as well get everything done at once. I do notice a difference, a lot better ride.

    UCA's and shock for 06 1500

    Everything came in today. . The control arms are pretty heavy duty, can't wait to put them on. Got off early today so decided to tackle the rear shocks. Top bolts were a little difficult to get off but I got them. I'm pretty sure the originals were still on. I plan on doing the control arms...

    UCA's and shock for 06 1500

    Shocks are going to be in tomorrow, and UCA was shipped out today. I don't trust myself yet to install struts. So they are installing the fronts and doing an alignment. It's an expensive trip to the store lol.

    UCA's and shock for 06 1500

    I pulled the trigger last night. Bought the Zone UCA's, should be here by this weekend. Then bought 4 Rancho 9000's. 4 Wheel Parts had a deal for 4 shocks, 10% discount on installation, and free shipping if I pick up in store. Just waiting for shipping confirmations.

    Zone UCA's and Rancho Shocks

    I'm looking at the zone upper control arm bc it comes with ball joints and aligns them. So I don't have to keep replacing them bc of the leveling kit

    Zone UCA's and Rancho Shocks

    Does anybody have any reviews or opinions on the Rancho 9000 shocks and the Zone Off Road heavy duty upper control arm? All the shocks are orginals and I have an RCX 2.5" level. Ball joints need replaced too. Just looking around for some ideas and suggestions. Thanks<br/>
