I can pressure wash this right? Lol not high pressure, but a light pressure to get rid of the mud? What do I cover, the battery, fuse box and alternator?

Sure but maybe remove the battery blanket first so it doesn't get needlessly soaked and just pay attention to the electronic areas. I spray some degreaser on most everything then spray it.

Loaned mine to my 17 year old daughter so that she could move a few large items of hers. :(
You didnt loan it...you gave it :)
She will always be your little girl. But think of it this way...she will definitely be safer up high in your RAM!!

Looks like your Hemi puked!

I hit some good mud puddles the other day lol...

I ended up covering the battery, fuse box and alternator with microfiber towels. Soaked it gently with an open hose and wiped off what didn't get taken off with the water

I think it's time for a big, burly aftermarket bumper now that you've got a little justification for it!

I've heard this advice a couple times... might have to have the body shop inflate the estimate a little to convince the wife that a new bumper is "more cost effective "!

Indeed you must...a black aftermarket piece would contrast nicely with that red topcoat, BTW! If my Rebel didn't already have a decent chin, I'd be pretty jealous.

Since I didn't have the extra cash for the Flowmaster Outlaw muffler I decided to change out the map and footwell lights to red LED bulbs. Ended up ordering the dome light bulb on amazon since I couldn't find it locally, should be in tomorrow.

Love the look so much! And I think this set up is somehow less heavy then the 295/55s. Felt that way at least

Very nice. Now you need some pocket flares to cover the tires sticking out.

Can I ask how you secured them ? I know they use the factory screwed for the lip but what did you use for tape ?
