    Resonator delete improve sound?

    After four month of waiting (long story), I finally got my Carven exhaust (cut and clamp, not full catback) with 5" tips in and put on. I expected a louder sound and more crackle and pops from videos I have watched (I get none at all) from it. I like how it sounds, just want more. I am...

    What did you do with your 5th Gen this week?

    Put the first coat of wax on her since I got it.

    Stock tire on 10" wheel

    No, I don't want that look. I just keep running into the same issue. I want a negative offset on the wheels but for a lot of them you need a 10" wheel. Most of the 9" I am liking are 0 offset or even positive. Guess I'll just have to settle for a 9" wheel or wait and do tires and wheels...

    Stock tire on 10" wheel

    I have the 20" wheels on my '21 1500. If I'm not mistaken, they are a 9" wide wheel. I want to put a set of wheels on it but use the stock tires. Some of the wheels I am looking at are 10" wide. Would the stock tires go onto a 10" wheel without problem?

    Installing leveling kit

    The setting on the struts should be on #5 if you want it leveled (no rake), correct?

    Installing leveling kit

    Got the 5100s in today. Also found a shop that will install and align for 250 so it's good to go.

    2021 Ram 1500's. Show me your lifts!

    This was my 19. Had a 3.5 RC lift on it. Wish I still had it. Starting all over again.

    Installing leveling kit

    He got back to me this morning. 280 to install and alignment and i provide the spacers (my choice). He also offered RC 2" strut install for 590. I countered that I'd want the Bilstein 5100s if I went that route instead of spacers. I provide the struts, 280 to install. What do you guys think...

    Installing leveling kit

    I'm confused about all that... He didn't actually quote me a price on the job. I have been looking for a local shop to do this. I see this shop along side a highway I drive on every day and they had a sign out saying they do lifts and level installs. I called to get one. Told him I had a...

    Installing leveling kit

    That's exactly how I know it to be done. Which is why when this guy told me about it, I wasn't sure what to think. I guess it would be possible for them to change something in the suspension but just seemed odd. So basically if he says there will be more to it than just taking the assembly...

    Installing leveling kit

    So I want to put a 2.5" level on my truck. Called a local shop to see what it would cost. They told me that something was changed between the '19s and the '21s. Said to install the spacer they would have to compress the springs and I guess put the spacer inside the whole assembly opposed to...

    Changing exhaust tips

    I want to swap out the chrome tips for 5" black tips. Do I need to get a direct fit set like the Carven ones that have the ball on the end that clamp on to the pipe or is there a way to put any kind of universal set on? I like the Carven tips but I'm not sure they are worth $210 plus I'll be...

    Too much offset?

    I actually just looked at pics of the old truck and that's actually right what you said. But that was on an 18 inch rim with an +18 offset and 35 tires. I not sure if using the stock tires on a 20" will will stick out as much? Maybe something from +12 - 0 range would be good? I only want an...

    Too much offset?

    Yeah I think 3" would be a bit much. I just searched the offset of the stock 20's and it says it's 19. On my 19 I had a set on that were I believe 18 offset. I definitely want a little stick out but not that much. Guess I should stick around -20 or so?

    Too much offset?

    I'm looking at swapping out my stock chrome 20" wheels for a set of black wheels. I plan on using the stock tires for now. Thing is, the wheels I am looking at say they are -44 offset and 12" wide. Is that too large a wheel to work on this truck? I have stock suspension (for now). If I'm...

    Muffler/resonator delete

    So I now have my second 5th gen Ram. On the last one I put on the Flowmaster Outlaw and I liked it a lot but it could have been louder. This time I'm thinking possibly doing a muffler/resonator delete. Anyone here done this and could compare it to the Outlaw? Watched a couple videos on...

    Sport sticker removal

    I actually have one of those. Before I bought this truck, I bought a '06 1500 that had really wore out pinstriping. I bought a wheel and it took it all off pretty well. Thing with that was I didn't really care what it did to the paint. I may try the heat and slowly get it to start to lift...

    Sport sticker removal

    So my new '21 comes with a nice "Sport" sticker on the bed, both sides. Anyone tried to remove these? I've done badge removal and know that stuff is not fun to remove especially if it's old but this is brand new so I'm wondering if it would just come right off or will I need to use a lot if...

    Installing side steps

    Thanks. The steps arrive tomorrow but I won't be able to put them on until Tuesday. Ordered that die and it comes Monday so I'll be ready to go.

    Installing side steps

    Just picked up my second 5th gen. Silver this time, last one was patriot blue. Ordered me a set of side steps and they should be here Sunday. I remember when I put a set on the last truck you had to put a wire wheel brush to the studs that you mount the rails to underneath because they had...

    Adding fog lights

    I actually bought it from the owner that lived just outside of Hancock. It'll be a while before I put all this together. Right now I'm more concerned with getting the rest of the truck painted and one color before the colder months come than anything else. I just think the lights would look...

    Adding fog lights

    Ok. The lights I'm looking at supposedly come with the bolts and the bezels so I should be set there. Thanks for the help guys.

    Adding fog lights

    Ok, so I'm looking at having to get the fog lights, the wiring harness and the new switch. Question, since it's apparently pre-wired, will I have to have them turned on or will they work with just swapping out the switch?

    Adding fog lights

    Ok, I did not find any wire going across the bumper. What I did find were two connectors that have nothing in them. One is facing down, that's on the drivers side. The other looks to be plugged into what I think is just a holder, that is bolted into the bumper. Are these what I'm looking...

    Adding fog lights

    Was raining out when I got home to check so I wasn't out there long but I do believe I saw an end of a harness mounted on the drivers side on the inside of the bumper mount to the right of the hole where the light would go into the bumper. After a quick look, I don't believe I saw one on the...
