    Building a motor for fun?

    Something that's been in my head for a while now. Looking at buying a house out in the boonies, when that happens I'll also be buying some eco-box little SUV for commuting. Truck will be regulated to days off, truck stuff, and towing the boat. I've got it in my head to pick up a junkyard hemi...

    I wanna go fast, but I've got a 5 speed.

    A 5 speed and 97k miles. I've always drove old gm trucks (94 or older), and switched to Ram years ago. I did about two minutes of research when I first bought this truck and immediately learned the 5 speed trucks can't handle power, so I stopped looking. Now she's pushing 100k and with no...

    Tires, wheels, load range, sidewalls.

    Hi all. I've been doing some towing related research and stumbled across a bit in relation to how manufacture tire and wheel size, coupled with recommend load range. Basically from the factory your truck is setup to balance the load in the center of the sidewalk. Changing this balance can...

    Aftermarket Backup Camera

    I've got a 7" JVC HU in my '11 Ram. Going to do some audio upgrades and figured I'd add a backup camera while I've got everything apart. What aftermarket backup cameras do y'all recommend? What should I be looking for? What should I about? Thanks

    How far to push 3.92's

    Ive always liked our trucks with a 4" lift and 35's. Seeing as how most lift companies have a very small price difference between 4" and 6" kits it seems kinda pointless to buy a 4". However I really think that a 6" looks best with 37's. '11 Ram RCSB 4x4, how far would yall push the stock 392's?

    Catted vs catless longtubes

    Atm I have a catback with a carven AR1 si/so muffler and no resonators. Its loud, but not too loud and the sound is amazing. Looking at headers and trying to get a better idea of what I'm dealing with. Two issues I have is I think if my truck gets any louder the fuzz is gonna have enough. Two...

    Motor work questions

    Stock 2011 RCSB with a cat back. Always had it in my head to get a ported tb, and a hemifever tune. It's been 4 years and I might be getting a small exhaust leak. That's got me thinking maybe I finally go catted long tubes. Then that really got me thinking, what would come next? Cam? Heads...

    Thoughts on having wheels painted?

    For years now I haven't been able to find a set of wheels I like with the exception of super expensive stuff. I find a lot of styles I like but they are always in black. So... my truck is a two tone red and grey and I've had this idea of buying wheels with a simulated headlock and having...

    HU Recommendation + 6.5"s in the door?

    Looking to upgrade, but mildly. 2011 RCSB. Stopped by a local place to see what's up. He recommended one of two HUs; the Pioneer 2300 or the JVC 430. He also recommended running 6.5"s in the doors instead of 6x9's. Thoughts? I don't need anything crazy. I'd like to Bluetooth my phone to the...

    Tune for my '11?

    I've got an intake sitting in a box. The exhaust is factory manifolds and cats into a carven AR1 and no resonators. If I picked up a throttle body from Moe's, what tune do you recommend? I'm really not looking to tear into the motor. I do have 33x12.5" tires and may go up in the future...

    Manifold Stud Questions

    Gonna try to tackle my manifold studs in the next few days. I have some questions. 1.) Manifolds are listed as left or right. What is what? Is the passenger side right like I'm sitting in the truck or left like I'm standing in front of it? 2.) I'm seeing a few methods for getting the...

    TPMS Sensor going out?

    Got new tires put on a few days ago. Took it up on the highway that day and all was fine. A couple days later I accelerate pretty heavily going up and an on ramp and my tire pressure warning light comes on steady. After a few seconds it goes off. It does this the whole ride home. Then again...

    Where do you guys shop for Wheels?

    I just spent the last hour shopping for wheels. Only to find out I couldn't select offset or wheel width or something like that and leave the site. The few sites I did find only had a couple different wheels. Is there someplace I can go that has a decent selection of wheels where I can...

    Where to buy Bilsteins?

    Simple as that. Truck needs shocks, figured why not level at the same time? Also, what are you guys running in the rear with the bils? Not looking to lift the back at all. Thanks, Ryan Sent from my AS985 using Tapatalk

    Headers Maybe? Help me decide!

    My '11 RCSB 5.7 Outdoorsman has the manifold tick. Only for the first 30 seconds or so but it drives me freaking nuts. So, a new manifold just seems dumb. Shorties maybe just to make it easy. Or the big dogs. I am leaning towards long tubes but here are my concerns: I've got about $550 into my...
