Ranch hand bumper
If $550 is in your budget, you can get a "weld it yourself" kit that fits your trucks year. I got one myself and put it on my 2012 from movebumpers.com and they have a couple styles to choose from but i dont think they carry ranch hand- Nick_rp

Autozones system recommended bottom shelf plugs so i told him anything NGK. But after a myriad of different failures i could barely keep up with repairs so i just got rid of it. It was fun to drive but a headache to maintain. 3rd german car, 3rd time ive sold it due to cost of maintenance.- Nick_rp

Brake bleeding
I circled the warning in the last pic because its easily missed if your just flying through it. When the procedure starts, its going to suck in your brake pedal and if your not ready for it you will probably **** your pants like i almost did.

Some parts are getting hard to find
The worst part about doing a junk yard part resto is getting to the car first. If you dont have it already, download the "Row 52" app. It searches local yards up to 500 miles away for what vehicle you need. 21 98-01 ram 1500s near me.- Nick_rp
