    New "imposter" wheels

    They were Washed every time I washed the truck. I think I waxed them 4 times. Last wax was in late November, getting ready for snow/salt season here. Only thing I think caused the pitting, is the road salt here in Wisconsin. That with the chrome plating being on the thin side. We get one inch...

    New "imposter" wheels

    An addition to this thread again. If you read some of the reviews on these cover, some people complain about the covers flying off, or comeing loose. I don't see how that can happen. if you get them for the correct wheel style, and install them correctly they are not comeing off. I had one...

    Remote oil filter how-to

    If anyone is using AN fittings, you do not have to use anything on the threads. they are desighned to be used dry. don't be a torque monster on the fittings either, just good and snug. the 37* taper is the seal. You can use thread sealer on the NPT to AN fittings, into the adopter bases. Dave

    Well the weather is finally decent, so I installed my new Lund black Nerf bars today. Bought them last October, and just got them on. I got a pretty good deal on them. They were $242.00 shipped, and I got a $50.00 rebate, on them. Went on pretty easy, except I had to use some of the brackets...

I used all existing holes to install them. The front were a little tricky to go on, but came out OK. I also use all stainless hardware...

    Disable Sirius XM Preview

    I don't know if this will work, but maybe pull your radio out, and see if there is a separate SiriusXM antenna pluged in back. If there is try unplugging just the Sat antenna. If your radio recieves GPS from the same antenna, It probably wont work. My 2015 only has a sat antenna. barracudadave67

    New "imposter" wheels

    These " skins" are not ment to go over factory chrome clad wheels, also from what I understand, the factory chrome clads are very hard to remove. My wheels were just the plane grey painted mopar wheels, I wanted 'chrome clads" so i oreded these. They are wheel specific, and will only fit the...

    Rotary Gear Shift Dial

    Since the trannies in these truck are all electronic, why do we need a big foot long shift lever on the colum, or in the center console to move a small electric switch, or solenoid. I like it, it;s a great idea, and space saver. Just think, their is no power steering pump, or hydraulic lines to...

    New "imposter" wheels

    Yes... as Demon-HeMi... said its hard to see unless you go looking for it, not very noticable at all. most lookers wont see the rim under the skins. I'm thinking of getting a set in black chrome, just for giggles, and to change the look once in a while. barracudadave67

    K&N drop in worth it?

    I ran one in my 04 5.7, for a while. I found that as stated a good quality paper filter was better, and I didn't have the hassle of cleaning, and reoiling. I always clean the airbox out real good when changing filters, also. I think the oil type filters are a gimmick, to part gullible people...
