    Second thoughts on fender flares..

    I had mine off a couple of years ago to remove air suspension. No rust underneath although my truck is sprayed with Krown yearly. I really wanted to advise you to either paint the fakemeout bolts either body coloured or blacked out The chrome kills the sport look!

    Blacked out sport grille

    I also hated the chrome slats , as well as the chrome badges and lettering on my sport. I removed the lettering and replaced the badges with black. I tried numerous paints for the slats but nothing would stick. I eventually found a guy on kijiji that was selling his complete chrome grill with...

    Loud squeaking noise when turning wheel

    Geez, I’d think you’d be able to feel that noise by putting your hand on moving parts. Is that video with the tire off the ground? Just recreate that on jackstands with someone holding the parts instead of a camera.

    Air Suspension Conversion Kit

    I only have a 23 foot hybrid that probably comes in at 55-6000 lbs loaded. I ordered the 35% heavier rear coils and the Rough Country levelling fronts. (As others have said the RC’s live up to their name.) The trailer pulls and tracks fine. I do have Airlift HD bags in the coils but can...

    Air Suspension Conversion Kit

    Airdelete was who I went with. Pros: everything needed came in one shipment Included alpha obd to delete messages if desired. Easy to follow instructions and great feedback from the owner I think his name was Brendan?? No more waking up and finding the truck sitting on its bump stops. Cons...

    *Mechanic refusing trans build info*

    Did you get all the part numbers and info when you had the illegal delete done? Unfortunately I think your SOL after the fact getting part numbers but hopefully the mechanic makes good on his “warranty “ promise. Good luck!

    Recommended Jack for 6" lift Truck

    I’ve always strapped the axle to the frame before trying a bumper lift. Although my CJ has the flex of a dump truck …..

    Recommended Jack for 6" lift Truck

    I’d go with the bottle jack/stand that Turkeybird posted used under the axle. A six inch lift still leaves your axles at near stock height, it’s just the tires raising the axle clearance and it would only be one inch difference going from 33’s to 35’s.

    Spray Can Black Pearl Recommendations

    I just had a rattle can made up for my daughter’s Venza at Napa. I did find it cheaper at Canadian tire after the fact though made by Duplicolor. You just need to find your paint code for that colour Be aware black is very unforgiving for crappy prep work, hopefully it’s in an out of site spot...

    Rattle after suspension work

    Suspension torque specs should be done with the full weight of the vehicle on the ground. Not hung on a jack stand. Good luck with the issue!

    2022 heavy duty towing automatic transmission failure

    My speculation is , He unhooked his trailer then jumped in the truck to move it forward without closing the door………. Transmission fail?

    Rust Proofing - do these things still rot out?

    This is not my truck just one o saw in a parking lot. I’ve seen a few like this, it seems to be all or nothing. This is southern Ontario.

    Air suspension vs. no- major difference on 2021 1500?

    We bought it with the expectation it would work as advertised and do the job expected of it. My compressor was replaced once under warranty and once on my dime to the tune of $2400. Finally it was diagnosed with 2 leaking rear bags so I figured it was time to repair it for good. Therefore...

    Dealership turned off dashcam before service

    As far as the collision warning system. I was pricing a new Power Wagon online and noticed it’s marketed as a “full speed collision warning “ Leads me to believe it won’t work in bumper to bumper traffic. We just purchased a Mazda and don’t get any warnings if creep up to the garage door but it...

    Air suspension vs. no- major difference on 2021 1500?

    My 09 with coils was a smooth comfortable ride. Same with my 14 with air ride. I’d say no difference in those two. When I deleted the air I opted for the heavier towing coils and cheaped out with Rough Country struts. Definitely rougher (hence the name apparently).
