    No DRL’s. Where to wire for “always on?”

    You can utilize any ignition hot for drl's. You could use a piggyback fuse tap on a circuit that doesn't get used very often (link below). Just be sure to get the correct fuse type. Also, Amazon has a drl controler so you don't have to have the drl's on 100% of the time that the ignition is on...

    LED lightning.

    If you want the most light, especially with the night edition housings, go HID. However, please aim properly! I actually have projector housings (the best for HID tech and what it was developed for) with 55w HID bulbs and ballasts. It is worth buying a high-quality kit with good AC ballasts. If...

    3.21 vs 3.92 Gear Ratio...will not be towing much.

    I have a lowered Ram 1500 with the 8 speed and 3.92 gear. If empty I can get 22 easily on the highway. Of course, that's if I keep it under 78 mph. Once over 78 mph the mpg goes down significantly! One other thing to consider... If you lower it you'll lose some of the smooth ride especially...

    Got screwed on wheels....

    C'mon man, you can't expect us to feel bad for you. Any used parts must be fully and thoroughly looked at before buying. It would be nice if everyone would be honest, but unfortunately that ain't gonna happen. Control the things that you can!

    Looking for deep tone exhaust

    If you're looking for just a little more sound than stock with zero drone, may I suggest a FM 70 series big-block muffler with 2 1/2" tailpipes and 3.5" dual wall dynomax tips. Get many compliments!

    How do you know if you have 3:21 or 3:92?

    I stand corrected. 72 mph is 2100 rpm.

    How do you know if you have 3:21 or 3:92?

    goram17, if the truck has the anti-spin rear end it wont melt tires even with 3.92's. Not a good method of deciphering rear gear ratio.

    2014 Brake Problem...never had this happen before.

    Y'all are freaking out for nothing! Call the police?! Constitutes theft? Driving it on the techs personal time? Seriously! If you've ever had an unusual anomaly with a vehicle you'd know this is standard practice. Arth, your truck is fine, it's fully insured by the dealer, and the tech isn't...

    OEM LED headlight opinions?

    I am wondering how these lights are actually installed. Apparently the clear lens must be removed? I've always been concerned about removing the plastic lens in fear of breaking it. Any insight would be appreciated.

    Whipple vs procharger vs magnuson

    Agreed! Should be measured in 1:1 gear

    Made a huge mistake...

    The 19's are definitely a step up in quality from the gen 4's, especially regarding the interior, but that price is absolutely ridiculous! I'll do what I always do and wait a couple years and get one 6-12 months old with 5-10k miles for 20k less.

    Best Aftermarket Head-Unit

    I agree with the others that say get the unit that meets your needs and budget. In aftermarket head units you do get what you pay for. I have the Alpine iLX 207 7" and it's really nice. Lots of sound adjustment to get very high quality sound. I'm also running 2 12" Alpine type R's with a...

    Just did the H11 to H9 conversion.

    Y'all do yourselves a favor and forget HID's or even putting in the wrong model bulb. HID ballasts are junk and need replacing 1-2 time a year. Available on ebay is LED bulbs that are within a couple hundred lumen of HID, have no ballasts, and are 6500K. Mine look great!

    Just did the H11 to H9 conversion.

    Fog bulbs (9145) is the same as 9006.

    Just did the H11 to H9 conversion.

    You have to pull the grill to access the headlight housing and bulbs.
