    Tire size question on 2019 Laramie

    My truck is a 2019 Laramie w/ 6’5” bed, and has the stock 22” wheels/tires. I’ve lowered the rear 2” to level, but the tires still look tiny from the side profile. I’m thinking about switch to a 20” wheel, but could be convinced to stay 22”. I’m looking for more of a”muscle car” liok, rather...

    Upgrading to headers--few questions

    I, too, am considering adding headers to my stock cat back…or maybe with a semi quiet cat back option. I had a fulle AFE long tube header and cat back on my 4th Gen and it was annoying on the highway and my neighbors didn’t appreciate the cold starts. I already went with the Vararam with a...

    Sooty tail pipes on a 2021 1500 classic 5.7

    I've wondered how much of this would be helped with disabling the MDS and using a catch can?

    Rough Country Lifts - Ackermann problems

    So, I’ve seen several posts involving alignment issues with RC 4” and 6” lift kits. I fought and fought and finally figured it out. RC has 2 different knuckles for their 6” kits. One set has the correct Ackermann and the other does not, causing the insides of the front tires to wear very...

    Help?

    Take a picture of the top of your steering knuckles and I’ll tell you if you have the culprit knuckles.

    Help?

    I went through the same problem and process. I’m willing to bet that this is a problem with the steering knuckles, and ackerman. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ackermann_steering_geometry) The alignment is fine when straight, but when you take a turn, the sharper the turn, the further it’s...

    What kind of mileage are you getting on your Hemi ?

    2016 1500 Laramie Crew 6’4” bed, 6” lift, 35x12.50 Cooper AT3’s on 20x10’s & 3.21 gears. 5.7, 8-speed with AFE CAI, long tube headers, high flow cats, MOE’s throttle body, Edge programmer. I have a hard bed cover. I just got back from a 1200 mile round trip to the Outer Banks, NC from the...

    AMP bed step cause any issues?

    oe542bob is spot on about foot placement. In order to get mine to fit properly, I had to offset the pad to the left. I only used it a handful of times before it broke on me. I weigh about 270lbs, and was stepping backward down from the tailgate, with my right foot still on the tailgate. When it...

    Lower my 6" RC lifted 1500 to a 4" kit???

    My truck had a 6" RC lift on it when I bought it. I'm currently running 35x12.50 AT3's on Moto Metal 20x10 wheels. I've never really cared for the look with 35's (I, personally, think 35's look like a better fit with a 3 or 4" kit). The question I have is, do I need to replace the entire kit to...

    Alignment Issues on Lifted Ram - Is My Dealer Lying to Me?

    It’s very likely the lift. More specifically, it’s the steering geometry of the Rough Country knuckles. After completely wearing out a set of front tires in 2,000 miles, while having mine in to 4 different alignment shops, and noticing really sketchy handling while hitting a bump at speed while...

    Audio Upgrade

    I couldn’t fit the Infinity Kappa 931x 6x9’s in the front doors, but with a little trimming, they fit in the rear. I’m going to go with a 6.5” in the front doors. I’m also not terribly happy with the factory sub enclosure. It just doesn’t offer the control that a sealed sub should have. It’s...

    Audio Upgrade

    The RF sub fit perfectly in the factory enclosure. The new front door speakers came today. I’ll treat the doors while I have the panels off. I dabbled a bit in IASCA and dB Drag back in the 90’s. I past the point of needing loud (had a 300ZX that easily hit 142db with a sound quality setup)...

    Audio Upgrade

    Thanks for the great posts. I just upgraded my dash speakers with the Infinity Reference REF-3032CFX. (I have one extra, if anybody is interested.) I also ordered the Kappa 6x9's for the front doors, and I replaced the subwoofer with a Rockford Fosgate Punch P3SD2-8. I'm not sure the factory...
