    Major lighting issue last night

    Last night I was coming home from dinner and was stopped at a stoplight. The person stopped behind me ran up to the truck and told me that all of the lights on the back of the truck were off. No lights at all. Luckily I was pretty close to home but as I turned into my neighborhood I noticed...

    New 34" tires. Gratuitous pics.

    Just put on some new 34s (275/65/20) and wanted to post some gratuitous pics. I have a 2" level on the front as well.

    Calibrating speedo for bigger tires

    Just put some 34s on the Bighorn and the speedo is off by about 3-4mph at highway speed. Not a big deal, but is it worth it to have it calibrated?

    Smaller replacement key fob?

    Does anyone make a smaller aftermarket key fob for these 5Gens? Don't know why they made these so huge. Would love to be able to find something smaller like my Jeep Grand Cherokee fob, which is about half the size.

    Another speaker question (9 speaker Alpine)

    I have already replaced the dash and rear door speakers with Infinity Refs and it made a huge difference. However, I haven't done the front door speakers because I read somewhere that those speakers are wired for bass only and the stock ones are actually really good for that. It suggested that...

    Carpet floormats instead of rubber

    I have the standard black rubber Bighorn floormats on top of the carpet, but they always look dirty. Impossible to keep clean. Just always dusty and grey looking even after vacuuming and wiping down. Has anyone replaced their rubber mats with carpet mats? I'm not worried about snow or mud or...

    Anyone replace the sub speaker?

    I've already done the Infinity replacement of the dash and rear door speakers and the difference is pretty incredible. I was thinking that if I got that kind of improvement just by changing those speakers, would replacing the sub speaker make a similar improvement?

    XM radio sounds different than Pandora/Apple Music

    When I'm listening to Pandora or Apple Music it sounds really good. Great balance, surround is fantastic, clarity and bass are awesome. Switch over to SiriusXM and it totally changes. Balance moves forward, clarity not so good and overall the sound is much diminished. The audio settings...

    Got any Katskin photos?

    Thinking of getting Katskin to replace my cloth interior. Looking for ideas on colors. I want to keep it similar to the grey cloth with white stitching. Katskin has so many color options not sure which color grey to get. Would like to see some photos. Thanks.

    Has anyone verified who makes the "Alpine" speakers?

    Got into a spirited discussion with some folks on one of the Ram FB groups who said the speakers in the Alpine system are actual Alpine speakers. I don't think they are. I've had Alpine speakers before, and the speakers that come with the Alpine system definitely do not appear to be Alpine...

    How do you figure MPG with oversized tires?

    Just curious how you figure your MPGs if you have bigger tires? These come with 31" tires, and I'm running 33" tires. Comparing the speedo with a gps unit, my actual speed is usually 1.5 - 3mph faster than the speedo display. My simple mind tells me that if I put one gallon of gas in and...

    Squeal from the radio?

    Yesterday the radio started squealing. At first i thought it was an air leak from the engine or window. Really high pitched squeeeeeeeeek for about a second or two, then it would go away, then squeak again about 5 seconds later. I turned off the headunit and it stopped. It eventually went...

    What are y'all running for wheel spacers?

    What are your wheel spacer set ups? I'm currently running 1/2" universal spacers on stock rims and 275/60/20 tires, but thinking of going a little wider. Would like to see some examples of 1" - 1.5" spacers. Thanks.

    Interior trim pieces look dusty...any replacements?

    My Bighorn interior is mostly black, but on the doors and just above the center display are some trim pieces that are kind of black and greyish. Not sure what the designers were going for because to me they just look dusty. They look like they would just pop out. I searched online but only...

    Considering the Motofab 2.5" leveling spacers

    I want to level my 2022 Bighorn 2wd, and it's getting pretty confusing trying to evaluate the pros and cons of of everything. I think I've decided that simple spacers are the way to go. It's a 2WD and I almost never go off-road. It's a highway queen. Don't think I need new shocks for what I...

    Anyone figure out how to get to the rear roof speakers?

    Has anyone figured out how to access the roof speakers on the Alpine system? I'm in the process of replacing all the speakers and there is very little info on those pesky little things. I assume they are 3.5"...but not sure. Looked all over the internets and couldn't find anything on them or...

    Where do you purchase your tires from?

    Been considering moving up to a 35" tire, but prices are all over the place. I've never been a tire-snob, even when I had BMWs. Usually I just go with the cheapest I can get. I have a 2WD so I don't need an aggressive off-road tread. Just looking for a nice street tread. Was wondering where...

    Speaker delay?

    Anyone have an issue of when you start the car and the stereo comes on the front and dash speakers don't come on right away. The last two times I got in my truck the stereo comes on, but only the rear speakers for about 5 seconds then the fronts come on. Weird...

    Rear door speaker upgrade made all the difference!

    I have the "Alpine" 9-speaker system and it's good, but not great. Got a pair of Infinity 6X9s and put them in the rear door and holy hell is it a massive improvement. I put them in the rear because I read that the front door speakers are programmed for just bass and they are supposed to be...

    Recommendations for accent grille lights

    I'd like to add some accent grille lights. Not looking to actually increase forward visibility...just something that looks cool. Suggestions? I like the Rough Country 6" inserts, but I think those are too bright.

    Reflective Concepts hood decal install

    I thought the stock black hood badges were just too dark and unreadable and needed some color. Got a set of decals from Reflective Concepts in granite crystal metallic. It's a little lighter than the paint. Here's the results. Not sure if I like all the lettering colored or just the Hemi 5.7...

    Got the tint on and runningboards

    Just wanted to brag a little about how this came out. Got the running boards installed and the window tint put in. Front windows are 15% and the rear doors and back window have 50% (on top of the stock tint)...comes out to 15% all the way around. I'm very happy with the look.

    What's your favorite muffler swap?

    I'm looking for an affordable way to improve the sound of my 5.7. A simple muffler change will do the trick, but there are so many options it's hard to figure out what to get. Looks like most are in the $250-350 range, which is what I'm looking for and pretty easy to install. As far as...

    Alpine 9-speaker system info

    I have looked everywhere but can't find any specifics on the Alpine 9-speaker system. Are all 9-speakers and the sub Alpine? What are the specs on the speakers? Is it worth swapping any of them out for better speakers?
