    Need help with the dread seatbelt chime…

    Been through all the threads… I recently put in a set of front seats from a 2014 in to my 2011. The plugs didn’t match, so I was able to run a power to the drivers side via the power (red) wire, and connect that to the seat by jumping the connection. Seat works fine. I now have the dreaded...

    Let’s see what you have….. non-OEM radio

    As many of you may know, Im in the final stages of completing a Laramie dash swap. I did not elect to go with the factory radio from the 2017 the dash came out of as it would have entailed also pulling the entire factory wiring harness. My plan was to simply use the OEM radio from my 2011 as...

    Suggestions while I have the dash removed….

    I’ve acquired a black leather Laramie dash from a 2500 as some may already know. I have all the goodies to do a complete conversion, though I will be leaving the center a/c controls and radio alone. I’ll be taking the entire current dash out, and doing the swap over a few days. Not...

    Vararam with Carven Exhaust…. Sound bits?

    Anyone have a Vararam and Carven exhaust set-up? Been curious as to what the sound would be like. I’ve got the Vararam and considering the Carven. Both items sound amazing independently, with great reviews, so I’m curious to the combination of using both. Feed back and any sound bits / video...

    Which Color?

    Gonna pull the trigger and order up some Core 4x4 products. The whole enchilada….. Upper, Lower, Panard, and Sway links and when they hit the market, I’ll go with the UCA for the front. Question is: Which color to go with? Looking to compliment, and accent the suspension and Ram. DO NOT...

    New Trend?

    Is it just me, or have others been noticing a lot more trucks Squatting? Just not Rams, but all makes. I get it the Cali Squat has been around for a while, and the result of leveling the front and simply having any load in the bed….. but what I’m seeing lately are literally 5+ inch lifts in...

    Weight distribution vs air bags

    I’m curious as to what has worked for you personally. Weight distribution hitch or air bags. I know the difference between the two, but interested in what has worked in the real world. My situation: 26’ enclosed car trailer, 10,000 lbs max, empty 3200#, realistic typical weight 7500-8000#...

    I have a Max Trac 4.2/3 with 35's. Lately been thinking I might want to go just a little higher..... it never ends. Don't want to reinstall an entire 6"+ lift, but have been entertaining the idea of a Zone 1.5 body lift, or trying Bilstiens. Any one out there been down the same road? What's...

    Tow Mirror Question.......

    Been reading through the threads and need some "clarification" on Tow mirrors. Basically there are (3) components needed: 1. The tow mirrors 2. The door module 3. Correct door control switches. My question is: Do all Mopar OEM tow mirrors have the ability to become "electric" folding...

    Ram Scat Pack ..... Question

    Has anyone done a "Scat Pack" package to their Ram. Originally the Scat Pack was an option on Challengers, Chargers and Darts... only to be revitalized in recent years as we all know. It was intended as a "trim"option. I know there are at least 2 "Bumble Bee" Rams out there, which looks...

    For those who have done a body lift...

    I'm evaluating whether to do a body lift or not. Have read all the threads, and curious to hear some feed back on those who had to "give up the ability" to have tow hooks. Do you wish you still had the hooks etc? I have a Maxtrac 4.5/3 lift, and the idea of another 1.5" has been bouncing...

    The Big Picture........Fuel economy, tire sizing Tuning and Gearing

    After reading all the responses from another thread regarding OP's question on fuel economy has got me thinking as well. Personally I'm not too worried about the mpg, but taking a look at the "effecientcy" of all parts put together has got me thinking more about a "Tune" and "gearing", as you...

    Can you hear me now??? CB's, antenna's and set ups..... whatcha got?

    This seems lie a question out of the 70's-80's but what hell. On a recent road trip, it dawned on me that as much as cellular companies "say" they have the country covered...... it's all BS. They might have the coverage, but the signal strength and reception sucks. That being the case, got me...
