    HD Lift and Tire Information

    Here's mine. 2016 Ram 2500 Big Horn Mega Cab. 5" RC lift with springs and radius arms 24x14 -76 Hostile Alpha's on 35x13.50 AMP M/Ts. Waiting for my 35x15.50 Venoms to come in I know there is a lot of hate for the RC lifts here, but I don't do any offroading, I just like the look. So I really...

    Boat towing advice

    I bought a 2008 Four Winns SL262 from a dealer in Islip, NY. We live in Cincinnati, OH. The dry weight for the boat and trailer is about 7500 lbs. 5500 lbs for the boat and 2000 lbs for the trailer. 75 gallons of gas (give or take) is just under 500 lbs. So all total, almost 8000 lbs, 12 hours...

    Fuel gauge issues?

    I have the same issue since I bought the truck 2 years ago. It slowly got worse and worse until now it constantly just stops reading correctly at 1/2 tank. I bought a new fuel level sensor only Here...

    2011 Laramie Crew Cab Gas Filling Issue

    I had this issue not too long ago and it was the specific pump nozzle I was using at this gas station. Went to a different station and didn't have an issue. The only thing different between the 2 stations nozzles were the one that didn't work look like it had more of an arch in it than the...

    Whats biggest thing you've towed with your 1500?

    Pulled a 2006 Gulfstream Conquest 30' trailer home a few days ago. GVWR is listed as 10940, but the dry weight as I towed it was 7k or so. I didn't have any problems pulling it. The camper came with a Blue Ox SwayPro WDH so I'm sure it helped a ton. It's quite obvious a diesel or at least a 6.4...

    Where does everyone buy their aftermarket wheels?

    I got mine from Customoffsets.com as well. Quick shipping for all that's involved and I picked it up at the freight company because I'm impatient. The largest reason I bought from them is because they install the TPMS and they mount and balance them before shipping. Less of a hassle doing that...

    Ceramic coated my wheels

    Hot damn that looks good. It took me 5 hours to clean and polish my 22x12 Hostile Fury's before winter. PIA, but well worth the time spent. I've been thinking about doing the ceramic coating on them, this just makes me want to do it even more. I'm curious as to how it holds up for the rest of...

    ALMOST HAD A WHEEL FALL OFF FOR THE 2ND TIME!!!!

    We don't know what truly caused the issue in the first place. Not everyone is willing to admit that they didn't tighten the lugs properly. Not saying that's what happened, but it does happen. I still stand by them not being required. I still stand by that they're not the sole cause of OP's...

    ALMOST HAD A WHEEL FALL OFF FOR THE 2ND TIME!!!!

    If you say so. 5 different rams, all with different sets of wheels without matching hub sizes tells me different. Currently running 325/50 M/Ts on 22x12 Hostiles without hub centric rings. Been doing so for about a year. As the tires wore down, they came out of balance. Had them re-balanced...

    ALMOST HAD A WHEEL FALL OFF FOR THE 2ND TIME!!!!

    lol I'm a 90's kid. I've just had the old cragars on a maverick before, so I have experienced the ridiculous lug nuts for those lol Sadly, I've seen people using the wrong lug nuts before and have some issues with lugs coming loose. It's more of a warning than it is an explanation of his...

    ALMOST HAD A WHEEL FALL OFF FOR THE 2ND TIME!!!!

    First off, when buying wheels, you should always verify if they're acorn bulge(OEM Typically) or 60 degree conical. For the trucks now a days, those are the only two types I've seen. The wheel manufacturer will specify the type of seat and diameter of the lug nut, you just have to get the right...

    Whats biggest thing you've towed with your 1500?

    I figure I'll add some of my recent towing nonsense. The first picture is of my truck carrying a 1984 Chevy C30 LB/CC Dually that is missing the 454. Because the trailer I had access to wasn't wide enough, I couldn't back the truck on, so it was swaying at 50mph due to the dually rear being so...

    fuel level gone wild

    Just to add to this, I have the fuel level sensor failure on my 2014 Ram 1500 and It's very repeatable if not repaired. Mine will throw a code at 3/8 full, then show empty. Code is always the same, Fuel level sensor voltage high(P0463). I went in the my local Jeff Wyler dealer to get new...

    What have you replaced?

    2014 Ram 1500, 8 speed I replaced the struts and rear shocks with bilsteins at about 65k miles. They may be ready to be replaced already at 90k miles. The water pump bearing failed @ 85k miles, so I had to replace that. Put in a new thermostat too since it's on the water pump. Added an oil...

    Let's see your wheels

    LoL the money was supposed to go to "Go Fast Goodies" for my LS Swap, but I needed tires and figured a new set of wheels wouldn't hurt lol about $3200 total from CustomOffsets.com. It took me months to save up all the cash, then my tax return came in so I used some of it to cover the remainder.

    Rear Coil Spacer Suggestions

    I was sent 2" spacers instead of 1.5" and I never cared to swap them with the retailer. I do have some odd clunking in the rear end when hitting speed bumps or the gutter in a subdivision driveway. I was just under the truck checking everything from Control arm bushings, pan hard bar bushings...

    Ram 1500 Fuel Level Sensor Failure

    I've got a 2014 Ram 1500 that I bought with about 51k miles on it. I had it for about 2 months when I got the CEL for P0463. It came and went intermittently depending on how much fuel was in the tank. I found that if I consistently treated the tank to a bottle of Techron, that the CEL would go...

    2.5" Spacer Installation Woes

    I tried forcing the alignment of the lower shock mount with a few different thickness screwdrivers. No go. I also had problems with the upper strut mount as I had put the nuts on about 1/4" down the stud, and at one point realized it limited movement quite a bit. But also held it in place...

    2.5" Spacer Installation Woes

    Yeah I have zero problems getting the LCA down far enough. it's the problem of not being able to get the holes to line up properly left to right that is creating the issue.

    2.5" Spacer Installation Woes

    I have a 2014 Ram 1500 Express Crew Cab in white. I just got a set of Helo HE879's for $450 with tires. 22x10 on 305/45/22. They clear just fine, I would just prefer to have it leveled. I only have 50k miles, shocks were just replaced by the dealer prior to purchase so I'm not adding Bilsteins...

    ram srt10 front brakes on 4th gen trucks

    From what I gathered, this is a good upgrade if it can be done, but you'd be better off swapping in a Hydroboost setup from a cummins. Much cheaper, might be slightly more difficult with hose routing, but I know SRT calipers go for a very high premium unless you got lucky. Hydroboost brakes are...

    05 1500 bagged on 24inch billet intros

    Why Z the frame instead of raising the crossmember that holds the steering rack? Just curious. I'm assuming you want to be able to lay it down to the body and that's why it's Z'd. I'm trying to figure out a way to bag mine but retain 4wd. Just to be that guy lol. Nothing like laying frame and...

    Wheel Dimension for fitment

    Hey everyone! I recently purchased a 2006 Ram 1500 Bighorn and have loved every second of it. I traded a 1998 ram 1500 quad-ish cab as down payment. I Now I've had my '06 for a couple months and actually want to do to it what I didn't do to my other ram. I am looking at putting a set of 20x12...

    Hub assembly

    I use a broken 12" 3/8 extension slide it into the back holes and hammer it out evenly all the way around. Keeps from hammering on the screw heads, and also just long enough to do the power steering trick.
