    2015 Silverado rear bumper on a 2nd Gen Ram

    I like the look of the Silverado rear bumper on the second gen Rams. Anyone ever done this? Curious what mods have to be made to the brackets. From what I've read, it's supposedly "very simple". I asked the guy that posted the pic on Instagram, but no reply.

    Compass is stuck on North. All the other features work fine. Is this common and is there a fix?

    Check gauges light

    When I apply the brakes to say, stop at a red light, about 2 out of 5 times my "Check Gauges" light comes on. It dings a couple of times, then the light goes off. Nothing looks out of the ordinary as far as what the gauges are registering for oil pressure, battery voltage, etc. Any ideas? It...

    Changed spark plugs, and all heck breaks loose.

    My 1999 Ram 1500, with 5.9L and 51k miles was running just fine. It bought a new air filter for it, and while I was at the parts store, I thought I may as well get some spark plugs for it, seeing as the original spark plugs were still installed. Get home, pop in the air filter, and change the...

    Cheapest way to calibrate speedometer

    Went from factory 16" wheels to 20" wheels. Now speedometer is off. Reads about 6 mph slower than actually going. Whats the cheapest option to calibrate it? Also, does this mean my odometer is off as well?

    Front splash guard / mud flap help

    Since putting wider tires on my truck, they tend to sling water, mud, grime all over the side of my truck. I've been looking for a small, custom fit (not universal fit) guards for the front. Having a hard time finding any non universal fit for anything under a 2002. Any ideas where I can find...

    Will Covering fog light hole cause over heating?

    Im wanting to install LED light bars in the cutout in the bumper where my fog lights currently sit in the stock location. I havent seen a flush mount kit for this, so I am considering getting a sheet of thick black plastic, covering the entire opening from the back side, and mounting the led...

    New wheels settled on and finally installed

    Finally found and mounted the new wheels and tires. 20x9 with 275-55-20 tires. Very happy with the look. Wanted some SRT-10 wheels, but didnt feel like having the grease cap snout on the hub milled down so they'd fit (I have a 2wd). And then also having to modify the center cap somehow to stay...

    Bora wheel spacer/adapter

    Before I officially post for sale, wanted to see if anyone would be interested in my 1 1/2" thick Bora wheel spacer/adapters? They have about 10 miles on them. Brand new. Just didnt like the wheels I bought, so I returned my wheels and ended up putting my factory wheels back on. So I dont need...

    Front and Rear hub bore different diameters

    Noticed on my 1999 Ram 1500, 2wd that the rear hub bore is smaller than the front. By nearly 1/8" to 3/16" in diameter. So, from the factory the rear wheels on the back are non hubcentric. This seems odd to me, as I havent found anywhere that list a difference in hub bore from front to back. I...

    2wd vs 4wd splash guard (inner fender skirt)

    I've been asking lots of questions over the past few weeks about putting 20" factory wheels off of a 2014 Ram onto my 1999 Ram. Got the spacers from Bora, have everything installed and it looks great, but now the wheels are scrubbing the inner fender skirt when I turn. I've noticed the part...

    4th gen wheels on a 2 gen truck clarification

    Ive searched the forum many times, and each thread about this yields different answers as to what is required or not required to make it work. Friend of mine at work has a set of stock 20" wheels and tires off of his 2014 Ram. He has offered to sell them to me for $200. Tires and wheels only...

    Creaking noise from front end

    My 1999 Ram 2wd is making a creaking (sounds like metal creaking against each other) noise from front end when I go over speed bumps...even at slow speeds. Also does it when sitting still, and simply turn the wheel left or right. That is the only symptom. No bumping/popping sound, knocking...

    SS/T front bumper question

    I used to own a 1997 Ram SS/T (photo attached). Regret ever selling it. I recently purchased a 1999 Ram Laramie with only 32k original miles on it (photo attached)! Has the 360, full leather interior...loaded out. Im not a fan of the front bumper on it, and would love to add a color matched...
