    Carven 5” exhaust tips

    Back when I was in high school (a long time ago), we used to put big tips on the pipes on our flathead Fords V-8s. We called them "Boom Cans". It was all the rage and must have items. I kinda grew out of that stuff. Really like the looks of my stock Ram tips.

    Stock Lug Nut Upgrade

    Yup, a tire shop or dealer doing tire rotation or fixing a leak is the concern. I feel I can service the lug nuts without ruining them, but a shop monkey may not care and likely use the rattle gun and a worn socket. Result...you get an interview with the shop steward about your bad lug nut and...

    Stock Lug Nut Upgrade

    Read this thread and got pretty concerned, like most others, that these factory lugs could become a nightmare some day. I have 4 of them that have only been removed once and looking these over, I have some thoughts: The lug on the left already shows some stress from the regular socket I...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Raised her up to off-road 2, and got under to change the oil & filter and polish the oil pan.

    Painting Under the hood

    Reopening an old thread here but it is a common question. Painted my engine cover almost 2 years ago using paints and preps found in any auto parts store. It is holding up very well. This much paint costs about $50. Sand heavily, apply prep, apply primer, paint base coats. Apply color...

    2WD or 4WD

    It all depends on your lifestyle, don't it? I think it is safe to say that all 4WD trucks will have been off road mudded, rock climbed, snow driven, and will have mud and stuff thrown up into all the dark corners of the chassis. Not saying that's bad, just not what everyone wants. A...

    No factory exhaust rumble?

    Well, I suppose the chances are that they are the same on the outside, but we don't actually know that unless someone would measure the length of a factory muffler. Not hard to do, takes maybe thirty seconds. Come on, somebody?

    No factory exhaust rumble?

    Sport muffler I just went out and measured my sport muffler. It is 26" long. If someone will measure their muffler (not sport) maybe we can shed some more light on whether the sport muffler is different?

    Factory Alarm

    OK, I think you are correct, if the battery is dead in the fob you can still insert it and turn to start/run and the alarm should go off. I still don't see the logic in having the key to unlock the truck but have the alarm start sounding when you use it. When I first got my truck, I used the...

    Factory Alarm

    Alarm on door opened with key It makes nooo sense to me that by using the emergency key to unlock the door the alarm will sound when the door is opened. This is totally ignored in the User Guide. If you don't have your fob, or if it's battery is dead, you are screwed.
