2009 Ram 1500 (Austin Tan)
The bolts ended up being stripped so I gave up and bought a new set of black running boards. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- metztech1

Saved My Nerf Bars For $14
I had this same idea! I went to remove the brackets to sand it down and the “nut” or “threaded insert” had broke loose on the inside so it just spun in place. Short of cutting it off, I wasn’t sure what to do. So I ordered new ones. Glad somebody followed through though. They look great... -

I agree, I was thinking about debadging but I believe there would be major color fade. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- metztech1

2009 Ram 1500 (Austin Tan)
Started blacking out the emblems. I tried to multi task and install a head unit while spraying the emblem every 15 minutes. I got distracted with the stereo and I now need to go back and put at least 3 more coats on the driver side emblems. Think I’m going to order black hemi badges. Not a fan...- metztech1

2009 Ram 1500 (Austin Tan)
Removed the running boards (for now) coating them with spray on bed liner and then putting them back on. Swapped out the wheels. Was nervous about going to black wheels but it looks good. Next is blacking out the emblems. *not seen in the picture also swapped the muffler for a Magnaflow...- metztech1

2009 Ram 1500 (Austin Tan)
The 2014 was a pentastar quad cab and this one is a crew cab with the hemi. It also is giving me the opportunity to work on another truck. It’s a win-win in my book. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- metztech1

Door Handle Covers
Yeah, I’m against taking my door panel apart lol. I found some vinyl online I’m going to order tonight and will do some testing. Will likely write up a how to tutorial if it’s not too difficult. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Pentastar V6 Pedal Commander review..
I purchased the pedal commander for my 2014 ram based upon the reviews here. I loved it! I tried driving with it off but just couldn’t handle it. It’s a joy. Thanks for the recommendation! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- metztech1

3.6 Pentastar Issues Thread
I had a 2014 pentastar, I did have an issue with the oil filter housing. It was a small crack in the plastic. I was loosing about a quart of oil over the course of a month. About $200 for the part and $250 to have it installed, I haven’t had any issues with it. Must add I sold the truck this...- metztech1

Door Handle Covers
What kind of vinyl did you use? I may order an extra handle to practice once on then try it. It has to be easier than disassembling the door panel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
2009 Ram 1500 (Austin Tan)
Purchased this Austin Tan Ram about a week ago. I wasn’t in love with the color when o purchased it but it has grown on me. Traded to this from a 2014 pentastar truck. Hope to keep updated with photos this time around. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- metztech1

Door Handle Covers
Did you wrap them yourself or pay somebody to do it? I’ve had poor experiences with vinyl, but I like the idea. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Thanks for the tip! They are factory but still look like covers. Going to order another door handle and then try to go for it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Door Handle Covers
I bought a 09 ram and it has Chrome “covers” on the door handles. I don’t know if these came factory or whatever but I need them gone. Was curious if anybody has removed these? How difficult are they to remove, do I need to purchase black covers to replace them? Sent from my iPhone using... -

Aftermarket Headunit in 14
Alright, I have a 2014 tradesman / express. I currently have a very basic headunit. Non touchscreen, no Bluetooth. I frequently see people saying RA2 or RA3. I am unsure of what model I have... I do not believe I have a factory amp as it's a low trim package. I am adding a JVC double Din touch...- metztech1

Added some fender flares yesterday evening. I wasn't sure if I would like them but I think it improved the overall look in my opinion.- metztech1

MetzTech 2014 Ram
After 2 months of searching and 40 days of waiting I finally have taken ownership. While searching for a truck, I didn't have many requirements. I didn't get everything that I wanted but the truck came with some modifications already completed. The truck was purchased originally by a member on...- metztech1
