    Add remote locks to 2020 1500 Classic Tradesman

    I have a 2016 Tradesman regular cab with manual windows and locks. I put lock actuators in the doors going to two relays and run by a Viper remote/alarm. Works great! Wish I had installed the remote start too. Thinking of doing power windows too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Aftermarket tunes

    I currently run a RA2 radio and thinking of an upgrade. No amps, I’m running kicker separates in my 2016 Tradesman regular cab. Any suggestions on a decent unit to go with that will work well without breaking my wallet? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tazer RAM

    I picked up a new Tazer RAM for my 2016 RAM 1500 Tradesman. I think I married it up to the truck ok. But in the instructions it says I should see a menu and sub menu but I’m not finding it on the dash cluster screen or my RA2 radio. Any suggestions? I’m trying to contact Z products but no reply...

    Remote Start with remote locks

    I have a 2016 RAM 1500 Tradesman with roll up windows, manual locks, and a real key ignition. Anybody have suggestions for an aftermarket remote start/remote locks/alarm? I do have a basic Viper alarm with remote locks bite it won’t operate remote start. I’m using aftermarket lock actuators...

    Spare tire under!

    So I put my spare tire under the bed where the spare goes! There’s an inch of clearance between my 35/12.5-18 mud tire and the tailpipes. I’m hoping that’s enough! I may change to a 3” single exit in front of the right rear tire after Christmas. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Remote start on a tradesman

    I have remote actuators installed on the manual locks now that are operated by the Viper unit when arming and unarming the alarm system. Id like to just add on to my existing Viper unit if I can, its already in there, and first have to see if it will operate a remote start module and if it will...

    Remote start on a tradesman

    I have a 2016 RAM Tradesman with an actual keyed ignition, no power locks. I want to install a remote start and retain a remote lock/alarm (I have a basic Viper installed right now). What is the best most reliable alarm/remote start/remote lock system that members have installed? Thx Sent from...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    So I noticed a few times with the light bar when operating the winch it is both hard to get a visual when rolling the line in and it’s difficult to reach the freewheel latch. I swapped to the red LED lights. Though they are 51watt each the should be ok I think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The only Tradesman regular cab long bed with roll up windows I know of with a leather wheel, all the stuff I installed so far and what’s to come tomorrow! Soon it gets...

    Radio codes

    Here we go! I kind of expected this. I bought a RA2 radio from a parts store. On the receipt is the donor vehicle VIN and purchase info. I went to local dealers in my area and none will help me get the anti-theft code for the RA2 radio! Even with receipt, my ID, my VIN, etc. Any suggestions? I’m...

    Adding a factory backup camera

    Hello all. So I have added a RA2 radio to my 2016 RAM 1500 Tradesman that originally had a RA1 radio. Now, I want to add the backup camera that completes the installation. A. Is the wiring already under the truck in the loom running from the bumper area up to the dash? If so Ill find it. B...

    Add compass module

    So, is the compass module inside the homelink module or is it a separate module? And where is it located? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Add compass module

    I have a 2016 1500 Tradesman that has a RA1 radio. Im upgrading to a RA2 radio but want the compass to work right. I have already added an overhead console but haven't added homelike or compass modules yet. I built a goofy harness to get the lights to work for now. How does the OEM harness run...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Debadged the doors, found a Gen 3 ARE camper shell, added new tires (35/12.5-19 Nexen Roadian MTX). Yes I have a Gen 4 RAM and the shell is a Gen 3 but you get what you can get for these long beds!

    Truck Bed Sliding Tray

    There is a upper set of bearings on each side that will prevent the drawer from tipping when fully extended. But with that said I am still working on a way to secure the whole base to the bed. I am considering something like turn buckles to go from the side hooks in the bed to the base or side...

    Catch Cans

    So please tell me, on a stock RAM 1500 5.7 what will a catch ca really do? I am an old street racer and we never used them on our cars back in the 70's but I did notice how much oil would escape from the oil air filters we had on the valve covers.

    Truck Bed Sliding Tray

    I got bored and decided to build a slider for my truck bed to help in accessing the stuff stored in the front of the bed and hard to reach. I dont have the plans as I winged it on the build! Enjoy! Oh, I just put some random stuff on the tray to get an idea how it handled that much weight. It...

    Flares Be Gone!

    Well, here's the new textured pocket flares! Fit perfectly, and I think with my white/black thing going on and being bigger than the OEM styles, they turned out pretty good. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
