    So I recently purchased the KYB Gas-A-Just line of shocks for my truck. I can't seem to find a good video on isntallation. I've heard that the rear shocks are a pain in the ass to change out...WHAT?! I firgured the rear shocks were always the easiest! Its still only (4) bolts total across the...

    Shock Upgrade

    Sorry guys/gals but I didn't want to post this in the "lifted" or "lowered" sections, as I didn't feel either applied. I'm swapping out the OEM shocks for the KYB "Gas-A-Just" line. Found the deal was to good to pass up on. The Bilstein's(4600HD series) were at around $325 for the set of (4)...

    Rockford Fosgate

    Can anyone confirm is those 6x9 Rockford Fosgate Punch series speakers (PN#: P1462) fit in an Express crew cab with the 6 speaker 5.0 head unit? 2015 truck. They worked in a 2013 SLT 6 speaker with 8.4a unit and no woofer. Crutchfield says they won't fit on the front doors because they're too...

    Stock 8.4a Head Unit

    Does anyone know how much power the stock 8.4a head unit puts out on the 2013s? I just replaced my speakers(see mod list for brand and P/Ns) all around and I know some of them definitely aren't getting all the power they could be.

    4x4 Suspension

    Guys. Do 4x4 1500 Rams have any sort of upgraded suspension or shocks similar to Chevy's Z71 option? Or are they all the same no matter if you have 4wd or 2wd?

    2013 Issues...

    Has anyone else had any issues with the USB input (in the center console) for playing music? It seemed to suddenly stop picking up my flash drive (which I know is good). I've only used it for 2 days. Also..."Service air bag" light came on for about a minute then disappeared in the middle of...

    I have returned!!!

    Gentlemen...I made a mistake getting into a 2013 Challenger R/T. Unfortunately I had to drive it around for 2,600 miles to realize it wasn't for me. I'm looking to get back into a Ram. See the link...the most loaded SLT I've ever seen. Let me know what you guys think. Looking forward to getting...

    Am I missing anything???

    2011+ Diablo Tuning Question

    I'm sure some of you have had the change to finally get your tuners. So, I've been running the 91 tune and have noticed a great improvement without tweaking anything. However, I don't usually see 91 octane at the pump. It goes 87, 89, 93. Is it a bad thing to run 89 octane with the 91 tune? I...

    Dash Cover or Sun Shade

    Obviously a sun shade is the quick fix to protecting the dash from the sun and heat in the truck. Obviously it will cost significantly less. Has anyone ever tried a dash cover like those from Coverking? The dash cover would be more of a custom look, as they are made for the exact vehicle...

    Fastman Dan Arcand TBs

    Cross another off the mod list...I just installed the 85mm standard modified TB with the optional backside taper bore from the Fastman. I immediately noticed more pep...and the truck just seems like it wants to go more using less pedal. Definately recommend. It seems like my exhaust has a...

    Front Right Rattle

    This is driving me crazy! I hear a rattle over small bumps somewhere in the front right of the truck. I can't tell if it is interior or exterior. It almost sounds like it could be interior but I can't seem to locate what the damn noise is. I've tried tie-strapping something down under the hood...

    Too new for dent!

    Just 5,000 miles and some shit dented my truck. I was parked not too far away from one of those dumpsters that the big trucks come and pick up with forks to then dump the trash over their cab into the holding container on the back of their trucks. I knew he picked up trash that day and I come...

    Engine Shroud

    I can't believe that no one makes an aftermarket engine shroud to replace stock. They have some cool stuff out there for Chargers among others but none that I can find for the 4th gen Rams. Has anyone seen anything?

    12,000 Mile Warranty & Paint

    Does anyone know what our 12,000 mile "everything is covered" warranty covers as far as paint is concerned? I have about 4,500 miles on mine and I already have some tiny road debris nicks down to the freakin metal!...seems too soon for that to be happening. I mean I realize this sort of...

    "Hemi" badging idea

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/400179882569?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 Found these cool reproductions with modern adhesive instead of needing to drill. Was thinking of putting these in place of the stock "Hemi 5.7Liter" badge. Also, I was considering putting them on the hood on...

    X-pipe opinions please!

    I was told recently I "should have" installed an X-pipe where I deleted the horrible stock Y-pipe. Why? I figured running the pipes from the cats all the way back to the Borla 2 in/out muffler would allow for more flow anyway. Is it a back pressure thing? Did this person know what they were...

    2011 Performance Cam Shaft

    Will the Arrington X-series VVT cam work with the 2011s? On shophemi.com they list it for 2009-2010. Anyone know? Also, is it when you replace the cam that the engine gets that louder muscle car sound to it? Crap, I just read that it requires tuning, or "serious engine damage can...

    2011/2012 Tuning Option

    B&G Performance Tune for PCM or TCM or both. The only option currently as far as I'm aware for us with 2011/2012 Rams. I'm considering this. You'd have to send in your PCM/TCM I believe...not sure on that though. Thoughts? Check the link to see the adjustments they make...not bad. Link takes...

    Aftermarket Headers!

    What are the important things to consider when looking at headers? "Primary tube diameter (in)" "Collector diameter" "flange thickness" "flange style" I don't know much about it all. What should these numbers be for my 2011? Any recommendation other than the AmericanRacingHeaders for around $1500?

    Crate Motor?

    What is the next level engine from the 5.7? Would the 426 crate motor fit? What would be the engine? I can't afford it...just dreaming.
