    2018 Sport CD cable question

    Neighbour wants to add a CD player to his 2018 1500 Sport and can't be talked out of it. We've found a 2013 1500 Laramie with a CD in a local wrecking yard. It is accurate to say if he tries to use the cable and console from the 13 he'll have an to modify the wiring for the Panel Lamps Driver...

    Is condensation from exhaust joints normal?

    Had the truck running for less than two minutes and found condensation coming out of all the exhaust joints. I'm used to seeing a bit of water out the back of tips, but I don't recall seeing any out the other joints on my other trucks. I think the truck truck is louder than a lot of others...

    OE 17" steel or OE 17" aluminumm rims for winter tires

    2015 SSV has been written off. I'll be using the winter tires on the 2020 ST (classic) that is replacing it. Currently have my year old winter tires on the factory 17" steel wheels that came with it. On the truck I have a set of factory 17" aluminum rims that were take offs from a 2017...

    Can you use the adaptive cruise control module-foward facing camera?

    Has anyone tried to use the adaptive cruise control module-foward facing camera as a front view camera without doing the full 360 swap? On another forum someone doing a 360 system swap mentioned if your truck has the adaptive cruise control and the lane departure warning you already have the...

    On the fence about new 4th gen SLT, SSV, or 5th gen Big Horn

    A 2020 SSV had popped up nearby, but it went fast and so far no one wants to break the rules and let me order another one. The only knock against another SSV is not having auto AC, but was otherwise happy with my current one. Other 4th gens don't seem to let me get a RamBox and front bench, have...

    What steps are needed to reuse seats with blown airbags? Is it as simple as look for signs of integrity issues, swap in a bag, and sew a bit?

    RA1 to RA2 swap planning

    Looking at giving my RA2 to my neighbor who has an RA1. I have a rear view mirror with mics, upper and lower mirror covers, a rear view mirror harness, and a left steering wheel button. Wondering if I need any other parts, and if there is any programming I can do to avoid security code issues.

    Is swapping the dash for a higher level leather stitched unit a royal PITA? Didn't see a write up by I may be using the wrong term. The part above the glove box/radio/around the spedo up to the wind shield that would get covered with a dash mat.

    Pricing to program spedo in Canada

    I picked up a 7" cluster from the wrecker and ordered a Rebel mask from the dealer. Looking around for programming kilometers and hours the quotes are in the $300-$400 range. Does that seem in line with what others have found in Canada?

    I may be too dumb to tow or haul

    I've looked a few times but cannot seem to find the yellow and white sticker I was expecting listing my available payload capacity from factory. I'm seeing the VIN plate listing the GVWR 6800lb but that's it. I'm only seeing my config (CREW CAB - 5'7" Box 4x4 A6 3.55)with GVWR 6900lb listed in...

    Mod or trade

    I bought my RAM knowing it was missing features I wanted, but it had all the must have features I needed and then some and the price was right. Until very recently I've been happy with it, but lately I've been almost obsessively thinking out what I'm missing. Thoughts of modding, trading it...

    Clearance confusion

    Am I the only guy who keeps thinking his truck is 6' 2" when he should know it's 6' 4" ish enough to make it 6' 5"? I've had more than a few times where I hear the antenna thump thump thump after making it past the clearance boards without issue. And there was that one time where the endeavour...

    Hiding in sight or standing out?

    Now that the warmer weather is here my thoughts are drifting to exterior mods for the truck. But I have started to see advantages to my truck blending in. Am I the one thinking stock might not be so bad?

    Cluster programing in Canada

    I see that TVandNav2Go seems very popular with US members. Are there any vendors members would recommend in Canada, ideally in Alberta?

    Mat options for carpet delete/vinyl floor

    I was at the dealer and debating between WeatherTech mats and Mopar. Decided WT cab width mat would be better since my truck does not have the retaining nub. When the parts woman pulled up the page there was a large warning saying no to use with vinyl floor. Since it did not say why I decided...

    Is there a NAV option for 5.0

    I see a lot of posts regarding swapping in the 8.4 with NAV. Wondering if there is a 5.0 NAV option. I like I have read buttons and switches with the 5.0.
