    Brake Squeak when Braking?

    I have a 2014 2500 with factory brakes and shoes with plenty of life left on them. I've noticed lately that when I apply brakes, there is a brief second or two squeal then it stops and I don't hear it again for the entire braking process. It happened while I was towing our 22' boat and may be...

    Light Bar location?

    So i have a 14 2500, about 140 k miles on it and I used to have a light bar mounted to the front bumper but it recently fell off. I also have cab clearance lights so I can't put it on top... And I have a front winch point with tow hooks so can't put it there either. Curious what other people...

    Exterior Air Tank/ Train Horn Issue

    So my air powered, triggered from the steering wheel horn, train horns stopped working and I'm not sure why. The air tank has air in it, and solenoid for the horns is clicking when I press the horn button but no air horns. I opened the air tank purge valve to make sure there was air and some...

    Tire Recommendation

    The time has come for me to get new tires, running 35x12.5r20... and I'm trying to get a good idea of what I'll be getting, looking for recommendations. I do mostly street and highway driving, with some periodic boat towing. Also, since I'm in North Texas, there's a lot of dirt and a lot of rain...

    Rainsense Wipers Not Working

    I have rainsense wipers equipped on my vehicle per the spec sheet and the option is enabled in my settings under Controls. However, they never operate in Rainsense mode(at all), only intermittently when the option is turned off. I noticed my windshield doesn't have a Dodge logo on the bottom of...

    Anyone have experience with this?

    I'm looking to add some more height(not excessive) to my Ram 1500 Eco. Currently I have Bilstein 5100's set to 2.8" and 1" spacer in the rear. I've been looking at the Bilstein pics thread and the Post your Lift thread and I think I want to do a 3 or 4" lift since I only have 275/65R20...

    Tire Recommendations?

    I'm looking at the BFG KO2, the Toyo Open Country and the Dick Cepek Fun Country tires for my 2015 1500 Ram Eco. I do mainly highway driving and some dirt roads and looking at the 275/65R20 size. Does anyone have any recommendations/suggestions for what would be best both traction and wear...

    Bilsteins to Lift?

    Has anyone gone from maxed out Bilsteins to a suspension lift(and have pics)? I'm curious the difference in height. I would like to put some more lift on mine, but think I need to go from my Bils at 2.8 to a suspension lift maybe 4-6", I don't really know... also, if you're able to share some...

    Bilstein to Lift Question

    I'm thinking about going from Bilstein 2.8" "lift" shocks to a 3-4" suspension lift. I think the shocks settle a bit and the ride lowers after initial install and I'm curious if anyone has experience with going from Bilsteins to a smaller lift and how much actual height difference there is. If...

    How can I fix this?

    So I was loading a TV into my truck during Xmas and it caught the ceiling and messed up the foam maybe under the liner? Anyone know how I can fix this easily? The cloth isn't ripped, it just seems like the foam backing or whatever is under the cloth is dented inwards and lost its original...

    HID Issue

    I just replaced older HID ballasts with a new kit both bulbs and ballasts. The driver side turns on super quick but the passenger side sometimes will and sometimes won't. I can sometimes turn the lights off from inside the cab and back on and the passenger side will come on, sometimes not...

    Amateur Wiring Question

    So I have been pretty lazy/uneducated in my wiring so I wanted to come hold my head in shame and ask of the ways... When installing new electronics such as an amp or siren module, I typically splice the power wire into an already existing wire that I know gets signal.. In this case, the...

    Cheapest 35" Tires?

    I know what you're thinking.... Cheap 35" Tires is an oxymoron! But I'm not asking for cheap ones, I'm actually wanting to know what size comparable to 35" with a 20" rim is cheapest than others in that same categorization. For example, I had 285/65R20 and when they went out, a set of those...

    Truck Bed Storage Alternatives?

    I've had my eye on the Decked storage system for a while but seems like the price tag is pretty high up there. I'd like something to store all my tools and fire fighting equipment in since I'd like to keep the cab clear and have subs under the back seat. For a while I was going to get the...

    Tire Wear Question

    Sorry if this isn't the right forum, I couldn't find something that's seemed appropriate and considering the question is because I have a lift.. I figured why not. If a tire wears unevenly on the inside due to bad suspension components, once those suspension components are replaced and the...

    This happens either when making a hard uturn at faster speeds(not dangerous, just not at a crawl) And when the tire hits a curb at a faster speed... but not at a slower speed. Please see the video... hope it helps! I have a Mevotech upper control arm which has been great and recently replaced...

    My LED Lightbar Extravaganza with Pics!

    So there's a small background on this before I throw in pics... I started with a 40" LED(they're all LED in this story) lightbar on my front bumper. It was great until I decided to install a brush guard and I had to move the lightbar. I built some custom brackets out of steel bar and drilled...

    Suspension Sag?

    I don't know if it's just me but after time, I've noticed the front end start to sag a little lower than the rear with my Bils at 2.8 in the front. I swear both ends were level when I first installed them, but now the front clearly isn't the same height. Has this happened to anyone else? Is this...

    Relearn Parking Sensors?

    Long story short, is it possible to "teach" the parking sensors what's normal after my brush guard has been on? Fingers crossed.... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    Brush Guard and Front Parking Sensor Question

    Just installed a cheap brush guard so it doesn't have any holes for parking sensors. Pretty sure the guard is interfering with the two middle parking sensors only and not the outside ones... Can I disconnect the middle two from behind the sensor and the outside side two still work? Or do I have...

    Separating The Dash and Door Speakers

    Does anyone know where the dash and door speakers connect together so I can split them apart? I want to retain the dash speakers connection to the head unit and run a new wire for the front doors. Thanks in advance! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    DIY: Oversized Amp Install

    I had an 1800 watt amp to install for my subs but I couldn't find anywhere to install it. Wouldn't fit under the seats, or in any logical spot behind the seats because it was so long. So I got a little creative and took some pics. ***NOTE*** This requires you follow my folding rear seats DIY...
