Astra9 build thread - 2014 Outdoorsman

[Astra9]

A few weeks ago I decided to upgrade from my 2011 Ram and ordered myself a 2014 Ram 1500 Crew Cab Outdoorsman 4x4.



One of the main things I was torn about when ordering the 2014 was the option to get 20 inch black aluminum wheels. My decision was to go the aftermarket route. So....with only 600 miles on the truck, I put on the Bilstein 1500s set at 2.1, went with 17 inch MB TKO wheels (17x8.5 with -6 offset) and 315 70 17 Cooper Discoverer AT3 tires. Zone UCAs have also been installed.

Perfect set up!

damn, those are 315s? They look great on there!

Got some pictures from an angle or down the side of the truck.
I'm curious how the '6 wheel sits.

That silver and black two tone is beautiful. Excellent choice in rim/tire combo

Thanks.

I have an A.R.E. Overland cap on order. Going to put black Mopar side steps on it. Rear Bilsteins and rear coil spacers. I have 1.5" ones at home right now, but I'm thinking about going with 1" instead. After that, maybe debadge or put black badges on it.

That's probably about it.....

Or is it?

I'll add some pics of the front/ rear tonight.

Yeah, I gave the wife the "That's about it" speech last night. She's not buying it. Just when you think you're about done you find something else you want to change, lol.

Here you go. Hope this helps.









Thanks for the kind words fellas. I really dig this truck. It's my 3rd Ram and my favorite of all.

Here's a thread that shows my previous trucks too.

Nice amount of poke, looks good.

Love the 2 tone...and how the front ends look on the new trucks!

Got my cap installed this afternoon. It's an A.R.E. Overland model.

I really dig it. Now I have a place for my dogs.







I do have an issue with the brake wiring so if anyone can chime in on my other thread here: http://www.ramforum.com/f53/cap_wiring_3rd_brake_light_issue-48870/

I'd greatly appreciate it.
