    OEM bed light button not working

    Picked the truck up from having the high mark fender flares installed and I noticed last night that the light in the bed to activate the bed lights isn't working. It's possible that a wire of something got tugged on and the button isn't working because of that. Does anyone know how that button...

    A lot more engine noise-manifold bolts?

    2018 Power Wagon, 53k miles on truck, 13k on the engine. I took a weekend trip from Baltimore, MD to Uwharrie, NC this weekend and towed a small travel trailer (~4K lbs). Typically my truck really struggles to tow anything of any real weight because of how it’s built, it’s not built for towing...

    Fixing broken headlight tabs

    I was one of the unfortunate ones that got careless when setting my headlights down and broke a tab. Rather than buy a trazillion dollar headlight, I tried my hand at plastic welding since I still had the tab and it was a really clean break. I used a plastic staple welding kit and a plastic...

    The instructions for the installation of the Morimoto headlights for trucks that have projector stock call to remove part of the wiring harness, as it is wired by default to go into a truck with reflector housings (see below). My question is, how functional is the wiring that gets removed...

    Sagging headliner around sunroof

    Has ANYONE figured out a solution to this? I work in a dealership and every 4th gen Ram I’ve ever seen with a sunroof sags at the headliner. It’s a problem caused by the Velcro patches not sticking to the frame around the sunroof properly. I tried taking out all the little patches a few months...

    Antenna relocatiin

    Since I put on my AEV snorkel, I deleted my antenna. I want to relocate it to my Go Rhino sport bar with a shorty antenna. That should get my reception back. What types of connectors and cables would I need that will result with a female fitting screwed into my sport bar that I can screw a...

    Go Rhino Sport Bar 2.0 and other bed rack guys, check this out

    Since I removed my tailgate in favor of a tire gate, I have tools mounted to the bed against the cab, and I have a swing case on the passenger side of the bed, I was looking for ways to add additional tie down points to the bed since I have very limited options to strap down any cargo anymore. I...

    So with my new tailgate, I installed an aftermarket camera and tapped into the trucks factory wiring harness using this: https://tailgatecamera.com/collections/tailgate-relocate-cameras/products/ram-oem-harness-1500-2500-3500 I used this camera...

    Aftermarket camera

    If I replaced my tailgate with an aftermarket one, is there a way to get an aftermarket backup camera to plug into the factory harness and act just like the original OEM camera? What would I need in order to do this?

    Considering upgrading my alpine system

    My 9 speaker system just isn’t enough for me. While I’ve done a ton of automotive wiring, this would be my first speaker upgrade. I’m considering putting 2 10’s or 8’s under the rear seats. A few questions: Are there any sub boxes that will fit under the back seats that don’t interfere with the...

    New transfer case shifter handle.

    This might be a little polarizing with some people thinking it tacky, but I figured I’d share it anyway. I wanted to replace the shifter handle on the transfer case, but couldn’t find anything I liked. I didn’t want the stereotypical 8 ball, skull, or something cheap from autozone. So I went...

    Remove the compatibility brackets?

    Now that I don’t need my resistors tied to my compatibility brackets for my LED foglights anymore, I’ve been thinking of removing them. They’re the lowest hanging point in the front of the truck, and I’ve bounced them of their fair share of rocks. Other than their purpose to keep me from riding...

    Alpine sub relocation

    I saw someone mention once that the alpine sub under the back seat is capable of being relocated behind the back seat, but I can’t find any follow up on that. Has anyone done this and can you provide any insight? I’d love to gain my storage back under the seat, my 14” adjustable draw bar takes...

    Gladiator Cargo Net?

    Has anyone used one of these? Only saw one thread ever and the OP never reported back. I will be taking several trips to the beach this summer, and with the two kids being in the back, I would want a net of some kind to cover the stuff in the back since i'm paranoid about things flying out at...

    ISO: diesel tail pipe

    Looking for the stock tail pipe section from a 6.7. I need the part that bolts to the back of the muffler and goes over the axle and out the side. Should be one piece. I’m told that is a direct replacement for the resonator on a 6.4 so I’m going to find out. I’m sure someone has one sitting in...

    Diff protection

    Banging around on some rocks has me convinced I need more protection underneath. I’m already spying a skid for under the engine, and the purple cranium rear diff half spider cover in red. I was set to order a matching front cover but there are concerns that not all front diff covers fit the PW...

    You know the phrase "no good deed goes unpunished"? well, tonight I was the personification of that phrase. stopped in the snow storm to help someone that was stranded, and as I was backing up to leave, I slammed into a road sign behind me that I didn't see until it was too late, I was fighting...

    LED high beams recommendations?

    Looking for some recommendations on what high beams fit in the OEM projector housings. I bought a set of DDM Tuning Saber 50W LEDs but the base was too deep and it wouldn't fit down inside the housing and seat in the socket. i'm not opposed to (and actually prefer) sets that require drilling in...

    Broke my truck already-no power steering

    So let’s just say me and a Rubicon we’re having some fun in a construction site tonight. At one point I went to do donuts in 2WD in the dirt and did about three circles. When I stopped I noticed it was a little harder to steer, then when the truck came to a full stop I lost all power steering...

    NEW Tuff Country 2" leveling kit - $100 shipped

    Bought this for my Power Wagon before it arrived. Well, there is only a 1.5" height difference front to rear on my PW so this would give it a negative rake. Rather than send it back, I figured I'd pass on a bit of savings to a forum member. When I received the kit, the powder coat was chipped...

    Came off my Power Wagon with less than 400 miles on them. One still even has some grease pen mark from the factory. Camera flash makes the lenses look scratched, they're just dirty, i didn't clean them for the pics. Bonus, they'll even come with bulbs! You get what you see in the pics, nothing...
