    Sport to steel bumper conversion.

    I know some here have probably done this, but I am more or less looking for a parts confirmation on what I'd need to do this. Thinking of converting to steel bumper & colour matching it on my Sport. My current bumper is pretty much toast, the snowbanks started it & have almost finished it. The...

    Mirror Signal Lights as Marker Lights

    Hey, Wondering if anyone has done this mod and has pictures of it? I'm going to do it myself fairly soon and will probably try to do a write-up on it, but would love to see what it looks like as I haven't had much success finding any pictures on google. I did see some pictures of it done on...

    Ram 1500 Integrated Aux Switches

    I'd personally go through the trouble of putting the overhead in, I'm all for OEM look, plus I'd probably end up losing the remotes somehow, lol. I think I'd also get annoyed with trying to grab the remotes and fiddle with them rather than just reach up and hit the button every time. I'm lucky...

    Ram 1500 Integrated Aux Switches

    Yes, definitely a pretty slick method utilising the buttons I won't be using anyways. Can't wait to get my supplies and try it out! Sent from my SM-G900W8 using Tapatalk

    Ram 1500 Integrated Aux Switches

    It's relatively easy. Should just be a 4 wire programmable switch, 2 wires to power & ground and the other 2 go out to the accesory you're activating. I found a bunch of the switches online and saved a couple links, think they're saved on my computer so can't post them right now. Sent from...

    Ram 1500 Integrated Aux Switches

    Sadly this truck was wrote off in an accident, but insurance covered it and we ended up upgrading to a sport. Our sport has heated seats & steering wheel, so I can't use this method anymore, which kind of sucks after the work I put in to getting it set up. New plan is to use the 3 HomeLink...

    Ram 1500 Integrated Aux Switches

    This is the part number for the switch I ordered: 68241386AA I found it as a "Used" item on eBay, so the price wasn't too bad. Just remember that there are different configurations and part numbers depending on what buttons you will need, but like I said, mine only had tow/haul & traction...

    Ram 1500 Integrated Aux Switches

    Honestly, it is a bit tedious if you want to keep the wiring half clean and organized. I'm lucky enough to work at a fairly big construction company as a mechanic with lots of resources, so obtaining wire, connectors, plugs...etc. was easy for me as they are pretty good to let us dip into the...

    Hard Brake Pedal

    Truck only has 3986kms on it, would hope i wouldn’t have to flush. Seems like a warranty issue anyways. Only thing I fear is them not being able to reproduce the problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hard Brake Pedal

    Not sure if this is the proper sub, please move if not. We’ve been having trouble with our truck on some cold mornings (winter here). The trouble is after cold start the brake pedal is sometimes hard to push and the truck doesn’t stop well, if at all. After pumping the brakes it does stop and...

    2019 RAM 1500: more scoop...

    Didn’t like what I seen at first, but I do now. I like the rebel a lot more than the 4th Gen rebel. At first that was the only version of the 2019s that I did like. I only really like the colour matched versions of the 2019 (black especially), don’t like the ones with chrome at all, but I also...

    Bed Lighting on Tailgate Open

    That was where my idea came from, was thinking of using one of them door pin switches, but don't like to idea of having to drill a hole in my new truck, kind of why I came here to see if anyone else had done something different. Going to do some research on switches and see what I can come up with.

    Bed Lighting on Tailgate Open

    Cool idea, but I'm looking to use my factory lights and remove the need to have to enter the cab or have any sort of extra remote.

    Bed Lighting on Tailgate Open

    Has anyone ever attempted setting up there bed lighting to come on when you open the tailgate? My new ram has built in bed lighting, which I love, but would love it much more if it just came on when I opened my tailgate rather than having to turn the cargo light switch on every time. If anyone...

    uConnect Flat UI?

    Does anyone know anything about this uConnect flat UI? Is this something only available with CarPlay systems? Would love this style UI in my own truck.

    Ram 1500 Integrated Aux Switches

    Alright, so I’ve finally got my auxiliary switch panel into my truck and lighting up my new light bar I just installed. I’ve decided to share my process with you guys for anyone interested. 1. Bought a used auxiliary switch panel from a ram 2500 on eBay. Now from what I’ve read on the...

    RTH - School Me Again? uConnect 5.0 update won't start up

    Is the update in a zip file? If so you may have to extract it and make sure there isn't any extra sub folders. I'm really just guessing as I have SOME computer knowledge but am only a first time ram owner since a few months ago, so I have no personal experience in this yet.

    Drivers Side Lock/Unlock Switches Don't Work

    I'm under the assumption that you probably won't be able to plug the drivers side directly into the passenger side. Now that I've sat here and thought about it the drivers side has mirror controls and a window lock switch, which the passengers doesn't, so it would require a few more pins and...

    Drivers Side Lock/Unlock Switches Don't Work

    Can you switch the unlock controller from drivers side to passenger side to see if it works? IF you can and it does work then that would tell you there is a wiring issue, which I would assume is more likely in the boot between the door and cab frame as that's the common pivoting point and...
