    Bilsteins? Replacing old Bils with new Bils?

    I've got about 60k miles on my old bils and figure it's time to start looking at replacing them with a new set. I installed 5100s before. I don't offroad, but I do haul a trailer on occassion. Are the 5100s still the best version, or is there something else I need to look at- like a 6112 or some...

    Color choice rear control arms?

    Other than core, does anyone else offer color options for rear upper and lower control arms? Powder coating after I get them isn't an option right, because of the bushings?

    Renew those vinyl floor mats

    Clean is the name of the game. You have to start with clean mats. I have weather tech but I'm sure husky will respond the same. I'll link the product too but here are my results start to finish

    exhaust cutout and drone elimination?

    Has anyone tried to use an electronic exhaust cutout setup to get rid of drone? I know the cutout serves a much different function, but one fix for drone is to add a j-pipe to the system. Wondering if I can kill 2 birds here. I've got the magnaflow 14" exhaust with 5" tips. No other mods.

    rear seat under-cushion light? cab with fold flat floor

    not sure how, but the passenger rear under-cushion light seems to have disappeared. I have the LED holder but I can't seem to find a wire/led assembly. Has anyone had this happen? do I need to take the seat out and take the covering off? the driver side is fine and in tact.

    saw this on pinterest- do we have anything for the Ram- overwheel storage

    I like the idea of the over-wheel storage in a lightweight configuration. I don't need diamond plated storage, either.

    Timber grove vs Rear spacers

    I have 1.5" TGC rear spacers now but it looks like we might use the truck for some travel trailer vacations next year. I know the TG air bags are pretty well received. Does that mean I can remove the spacers and use the bags for my level look too? I won't need the spacers anymore, right?

    rear traffic cam install?

    I'm considering a front and rear traffic cam setup. The front camera placement seems easy, but the rear is much more difficult. Any ideas on how to mount a camera without destroying the head liner, and without getting in the way of the sliding rear window? Thanks in advance Geoff

    The new devices all use USB-C for my android devices. I'd like to replace the charge ports in the back seat with the usb-c ports. Most of my cords are usb-c on both ends, so I can't use the old usb style. Anyone swapped old for the new usb-c?
