    Full Audio Replacement

    Watch out... your next product will end up being custom iPad audio integration. I am still playing around with how I want to integrate the ipad into the center console. Brainstorming a linear actuator idea involving the storage compartment in the center console that will hide away or be at...

    Full Audio Replacement

    6x9 in the rear doors, 6.5 in the front doors. There are a total of 4 amps involved in the setup. The MS-8 has 8 channels that can be amped or line out. I will use 3 of them amped to the front 3 speakers since the KS35s are rated at 6-20rms and the MS-8 is 20-30rms per channel. The...

    Full Audio Replacement

    I had orginally ordered the Kicker CVX 12s (which I am sure would have been great) to keep with the same brand speakers, but a friend of mine let me hear the RE SEX subs and I was in love. Amazing subs and designed to work well in the smaller encloser. He said the Kickers just would not be at...

    Full Audio Replacement

    I got back to the office today from my trip to Florida and was happy to find several boxes waiting at my desk. Preparing to replace my not so premium "Alpine Premium Audio" in my 2012 Ram 1500 Sport Crew. The sound is just not what I want currently. I am keeping the stock RHB 430n head unit...

    Mhp on nav not picking up speed

    Working as intended. You can enable or disable this overide in the on screen settings for the Lockpick. The purpose of this is to trick the system into thinking you are parked so that you (or preferable passanger) can use the full functions of NAV, DVD, AUDIO controls and such while driving...

    Dropped by JJ's today.

    I dropped by JJs today and picked up my next set of mods. Custom JJ Head Lights and Fogs. HID + Halos. Color matched to my truck. Color matched painted Bushwacker Fender Flares. I admit I am half excited, half terrified of doing the install. I am sure it wont be that bad once I dig into it...

    Yet another spacer question from a NOOB

    I have 33x12.5x20 Mud Grapplers on stock rims with 1/4 inch spacer and it gives just enough clearance to not hit. They are actually a bit wider than your tire.

    RamForum Exhaust 4th Gen Clips and Vids

    I put on a Mufflex 18 kit last night on my 2012 Ram Sport. It is a kit that uses a Magnaflow muffler and is plug and play. I am no grease monkey, but I did it by myself in about an hour. 15mm socket wrench, can of WD 40 and you are set. I did not even have to jack the truck up. I absolutely...

    2012 Lug Nut Pain

    Finally found out the answer by going through my owners manual and doing some searching of the web. Althoug most sites say 2002 to present for the Ram 1500 thread pattern, it looks like the 2012, or at least my 2012 is different. From what I read. 2002 to 2011 Ram 1500s used a 9/16 x 18...

    2012 Lug Nut Pain

    So it has come to my attention that 2012 lug nuts are not the same as previous years of the ram. Have every thing torn apart and think I may have damaged my bolts. Anyone know the thread difference?

    Switching Tires + Rims

    Ah, I read when you asked about stock rims as stock hight. My bad.... Yes, the stock rim 20x9 work just fine. Those are very wide tires too. And I happen to know someone that has a set with about 1k miles on them =).

    Switching Tires + Rims

    The dealership installed a 2.5" mopar leveling kit when I purchased the truck. They were the ones that put on the Mud Grapplers as well per my request. It was not the cheapest, but of course I had not joined this site yet and found out $800 for a level kit is a bit expensive. I ended up not...

    Switching Tires + Rims

    I finally decided and ordered my tires and wheels today. Settled on the Trail Grappler 35x12.5x20 + XD Monster Black 20". I liked the clean look of the XD Monsters and the fact that I should be getting my JJ headlights and fogs in the next few days made me realize black was the way...

    Switching Tires + Rims

    I guess I just liked the look of these in chrome. I also considered Gear-Alloy-719-Timberland-Carbon-Black-Machine-20x10 As far as the 1/4 spacer, the dealer already put some on when the installed my current wheels. That and the fact that I have a custom set of 1.5 inch spacers coming...

    Switching Tires + Rims

    Well I have had my truck for a month now and put about 1k miles on it. As much as I love the look of the Nitto Mud Grapplers, they are just a bit too loud for my taste. Everyone loves the look but have I have had a few complaints about the noise from passangers. I went to pick up my son in...

    Hello from Saint Louis, MO

    Just purchased a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4, all black, black leather interior. It is already a beautiful truck. Previously had a 2007 Big Horn and a 2003 SLT before that. Decided this time I would treat myself and got about every option available. Must be a mid life crisis or something...
