    Exhaust 'Rip" shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear

    So it probably did it with the stock muffler to some extent but the Carven now let's it sound off in all it's glory!

    Exhaust 'Rip" shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear

    YES! Brrapp! Is exactly the sound! It does sound cool but I wasn't sure if was normal. Stock **** didn't do it at all.

    Exhaust 'Rip" shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear

    Ever since I installed a Carven Progressive bolt-on muffler, I noticed my 2013 Ram 1500 will let off a loud exhaust 'Rip' when up shifting from 2nd to 3rd on a hard acceleration (8 speed auto). It's hard to describe but almost sounds like a Jake Brake venting the exhaust between gears on a big...

    iDatalink ADS-ALCA Problems

    Battery tested good. It ha gotten progressively worse. Lunging at highway speed and screen messages saying to pull over and put into park and drive again. Dash lights up like xmas tree...it's at the dealer service shop now! Hopefully they can figure out whats wrong and fix it!

    iDatalink ADS-ALCA Problems

    My son bought a used 2015 Ram Tradesman and we noticed that it had 3X lock button remote start. We also noticed the driving lights stay on at all times like DDL's. Didn't think much more about it but a few months later and it is starting to have issues! The truck will randomly shut off at...

    I live the Northern Canada, a place called tuktoyaktuk

    Welcome aboard! I remember seeing ads for the Tuktoyaktuk Polar Beach Party, featuring Metallica, concert back in the 90's! That would have been a "Cool" show!

    Stainless Fender Flares? Anyone have them?

    I'm going to try some rust converter on the visible rust and definitely some fluid film for up in the back side of the fenders!

    Stainless Fender Flares? Anyone have them?

    I am thinking about adding some stainless fender flares to my 2013 Bighorn to help hide some rust that is forming above the rear wheel wells. I would attempt to fix it first with rust restorer and color match paint, but my truck is Western Brown Pearl and will be tough as hell to match! So I...

    To DRONE or not to DRONE

    Another vote for the Carven Progressive! It has balls when you smash the pedal but it is pretty quite in the cab when cruising at highway speeds! Drone is subjective to the listener...some will hear it some won't!

    Yes...I gotta say! The Progressive is the best money that I've spent in a good while!

    Haha! Yes, I love my Opt7! It's 3 years old and still looks great!

    Carven Progressive Exhaust ordered! Am I gonna like it?

    Well, it was a bit of a fight! We had to cut off all 3 old clamps and wrestle the tail pipes out of the muffler like a dentist pulling a stubborn tooth! But once that was over, the old muffler slid right out and the new Carven took it's rightful place! It was a bit of a struggle getting the...

    Carven Progressive Exhaust ordered! Am I gonna like it?

    My Progressive kit showed up yesterday as well as my son's Competitor and S&B intake for his 2015 Express! I think we may be able to do a side by side comparison video of the Progressive and Competitor Carven's! That should be fun, but first I need to decided if I am going to tackle the...

    Carven Progressive Exhaust ordered! Am I gonna like it?

    Aw man! Went below deck to PB Blast the old muffler clamps and I see this! I’m too old for this shit…might take it to the shop to install!

    Carven Progressive Exhaust ordered! Am I gonna like it?

    Drone can't be any worse than the air noise from my AVS in channel vent shades! Sounds like I am in a jet at highway speeds, LOL!

    Carven Progressive Exhaust ordered! Am I gonna like it?

    I'm more worried about any effects on the engine after adding an aftermarket exhaust? Is it safe for the engine? I always hear people talk about back pressure and stuff, but a lot of people seem to swap OEM mufflers for deletes and aftermarkets!

    Carven Progressive Exhaust ordered! Am I gonna like it?

    So, I noticed that Carven was having a sale on Progressive direct fit muffler kits for $262 each/free shipping! That made my mind up to pull the trigger ASAP but I got to reading about them online and there seems to be a ton of people that say the Progressive is a great tone at idle and good...

    Rust 2013 - Fix or Trade?

    I am thinking about those stainless steel fender trim pieces to hide the rust (after I atempt ti fix it and coat it of course) but it seems to me that those trim pieces would collect and hold even more salt and debris against the fender?? Bad idea!

    Rust 2013 - Fix or Trade?

    So yeah, as the title states, I have some rust popping up on my 2013. It is above the rear wheels and a little worse on the left side. I took it to a body shop guy and he said that the bed had a reinforcement above the rear wheels and it tends to hold dirt, mud and salt. He estimated over...
