Jack bolt mod
After seeing the other threads on the jack bolt corrosion issue, I went out and checked mine. My truck is extremely clean underneath and not even any dirt on the threads. It unscrewed easily with my fingers. I put a little white grease on it and screwed it back in. That's all that was needed... -
TrekStep Bumper Step Thoughts
After a lot of procrastination, mostly about price, I finally ordered the TrekStep bumper step for my Ram. Came in, and took maybe 15 minutes to install. Just 5 bolts and no drilling. It seems to work well, with a couple of concerns, and holds my lard ass with ease. When opening and closing it... -
Cabin Fan Speed Test
I did some tests of the cabin filter and blower air speeds with my Kestrel weather station today. All test were performed with the engine off, fan speed 7, A/C on, recirculate off, and temp all the way cold. I just did snapshots from the Kestel, instead of trying to take pictures as I did last... -
Finally decided on tires
Knew I wanted to get rid of those crappy SRA's before the white stuff starts falling. Plus they kind of sucked all around IMO. Had decided on the Cooper A/TW, but Discount doesn't carry that one. So hazard warranties could take a while. Next choice was the Cooper A/T3. Nothing but good reviews... -
WeatherTech Window Deflectors
Never had deflectors on any vehicle I've owned. However after sitting through a rain shower at the track, I found you can't even crack the windows for fresh air without as much rain as air coming in the cab. So I've been researching the various options, WT, AVS, EGR, etc.. Seems WeatherTech is... -
Bed Organization - Phase One
Just got my ratcheting cargo bar and adjustable organizer. Got a Sunferno bar. Very easy to ratchet and release. However I need longer arms to hold both sides in place until the ratcheting. A common problem with all of them I'd assume. But it claims to hold up to 220 lbs. Might get a... -
Finally got my shorty
Not much of a mod, but the stock mast was driving me crazy. They didn't have the same one I put on my Jeep, so I got this carbon fibre version from Manny, Moe, and Jack for $15. I saw them cheaper online, but wanted to be done with it today. Looks ok, but not really a CF look IMO. I never listen... -
Anyone got a GatorTrax MX Electric?
I've looked at a boatload of tonneau covers since buying my truck. Not really interested in soft or folding types. I want solid, sturdy, retractable, electric, secure, and matte finish. This is the only one I found that ticks all the boxes for me. They sure are proud of it though. But cheap... -
Taming the 8HP70
Sort of... Been working with my tuner, Johan Mangs (diablotoona), to try and workaround that silly delay in shifting at WOT. Stock, you all know the momentary delay in shifting at WOT. And it seemed to just shift, with no forward surge at all. He reduced the torque management Chrysler sets...- wink

Completely silence UConnect 8.4
One feature I hate about my truck. It's determined to force you to listen to something. I typically only listen to songs I've loaded on a USB drive. So first I tried the mute button in the volume knob. Works until I restart the engine. Then comes blaring out again. So I chose Aux, knowing...- wink

Finally, my Catch Can arrived
I ordered it right away, but they were on backorder. Only have 1000 miles, so not gonna be a problem. New engines aren't as bad as once they loosen up. I opened the box and no hoses. WTF! I looked at my invoice, and somehow I managed to select no hoses. :crazy: Oh well, a quick trip to the parts...- wink

My 2nd Hemi
Recently found a 2017 1500 Sport 4x4 regular cab at a local dealership and bought it on the spot. Always wanted a full size pickup, but it had to have a Hemi. I needed something to drive until the current build on my Jeep is done. I actually bought an old Tahoe beater to drive and dump when the...- wink
