    Trailer Brake Controller and Parksense Sensors not working

    I just did this, and I did not see the indicator light pop up. I don't ever recall seeing this light, even when everything was working correctly. I'll go ahead and check the wiring. Hopefully I can get it done on or before the weekend. My camper is also very light, so maybe I can jack up one...

    Trailer Brake Controller and Parksense Sensors not working

    Ram Tow Hook Mount Removal

    Hey guys, I have a front bumper that I fabricated a while back, and I think I am going to remove the winch plate that sits on the tow hook mounts and fab up a skid plate that attaches to the cross member. I was thinking about removing the factory tow hook mounts. I am referring to the...

    Trailer Brake Controller and Parksense Sensors not working

    Hey yall, I have a few question regarding my 2013 ram 1500, 5.7. I am going to be doing a cross country tow in the next few months, 4,000 pound travel trailer. My ram is equipped with factory trailer brake controller. I haven't used in it a while, but when it did work, I remember that on the...

    Question: Suspension/coilover upgrade

    Hey guys, So I am beginning my long road of research as to which route I want to go as far as light suspension upgrade. I have a 2013 ram 1500 sport, 4x4. I have fabricated a tube front bumper with a winch and roof rack. I believe there two additions add around 400 pounds, maybe a bit more...

    Towing and hauling capacity question.

    Thanks so much for this real world, in depth response. My front bumper is a benefit in that it does put some good weight in the most forward position possible. Also, with my roof rack, I can put my gas cans and such, right between the two axles. I think I'm going to be fine too! I am...

    Towing and hauling capacity question.

    Hey all, I really appreciate the information. The good thing is I don't have a wife or kids, just a 40 pound hound dog! The specific trailer I'm looking at, the owner told me he actually puts his dirt bike inside when towing. So I could probably do the same. Additionally, the bulk of my...

    Towing and hauling capacity question.

    Hey folks, I have a question about what my truck is capable of, safely, and without damaging the components. So I have a ram 1500 sport quad cab, 2013. I have fabricated a tube bumper and roof rack. The total for these two additions is around 350 pounds. I usually carry around 350...

    Trailer Lights not working

    Hey folks, I know it has been discussed before, but I am having trouble finding the exact information I need. I have a 2013 ram 1500. It has both of the trailer light plug-ins. I am not sure they have ever worked, but I haven't ever really done and troubleshooting. None of the lights work on...

    Winch mounting location question

    hey thanks for those pictures and the advice. The bumper that I fabricated uses the standard style "buckets" (as I call them) that you see on prerunner bumpers. I'll fabricated a little kicker coming off the buckets, going down to the the winch plate. That should give it more than enough...

    Winch mounting location question

    Yeah I read that thread. Lots of good information, but not sure it will work for my application. Do you think these hook mounts will be sufficient to hold with winch and bracket with just a high-strength bolt in the factory hole (one each side). I'll probably also weld the bracket onto the...

    Winch mounting location question

    Hey guys and gals, So I have a question about mounting my barn-find Warn M10000. I believe it is from the late 80s. Anyways, I already have a tube bumper that I built. It weight around 140 pounds I believe. Maybe more maybe less. I was wondering if I can use the section of the frame...

    Oh boy, which wire did I snip!?

    Okay the color of the wire is black, and what looks to be a grey stripe. I believe my temperature sensor for the external temperature is not reading correctly. Would this be the wire in questions?
