    Installed Airlift Air Bags

    Thank you for the feedback, the 7500 kit does seem like it would fit my needs better, but they dont have many options and I am not sure if it has the internal jounce. I may have to call them and ask. I like knowing that if a bag fails while out camping I have that jounce there. Anybody out there...

    Installed Airlift Air Bags

    What type of weight are you towing? Did you do the 5000 or 7500 kit? I plan on upgrading to a heavy 13K fifth wheel soon and I want one of these kits, just not sure on the 5000 or 7500.

    OEM Gooseneck install 2018 2500

    Hey Tony, how did it go? I have read that on the 2500 there is room to get the pucks in there without lifting the bed. How about the gooseneck plate and bolts, did you need to raise the bed to get those in? Looking into doing this prep pack in mine this winter.

    5th wheel hitch with cargo boxes

    Hey Tommy, Sorry I am a little late. I assume you have the ram boxes? I have the 6 1/2 ft bed with ram boxes as well and I am planning on upgrading to a fifth wheel soon. From all my research I have found that a non slider hitch along with a reese sidewinder pin box on the camper is the best...

    Installed my Pedal Commander today

    Have any of you experienced towing with the pedal commander? Any difference? I just took my 15' 2500 6.4 with 3.73's for its first tow. I previously had a 16' 1500 5.7 with the 8 speed tranny and 3.92's. The 1500 felt better power wise. I know the PC doesn't add any horsepower, but curious if if...

    Anyway for 8.4 to pick up wireless camera?

    Hey Baum can you give me some details of how and where you tapped into the radio harness to get the feeds. I know that pins 31,32,33 on the radio harness receive my cargo cam. Back up is in my mirror. So I was thinking of having the trailer cam and cargo cam on the same pins (31,32,33) When I...

    Coolant Smell

    I just brought mine in yesterday to get a harness replaced on my ram boxes. I am new to the truck about 1 1/2 months and have noticed the smell of coolant from time to time in front of the vehicle after shut off. I asked the dealership to pressure test and look into it. They did everything and...

    I did the center console swap to a jumpseat a few months back. The jumpseat I got had the stock cd player. It was plug and play however, no play.

    OEM Rebel Grill on a 2012 Ram 1500 Big Horn

    That looks sweet!! Anything is possible. My pops owns a body shop and I grew up working there. Just about anything can be done. I am sure this will work for you possibly with a few mods but it is absolutely doable. I built a lowrider with hydraulics in NY which they are not very popular as out...

    Uconnect update realeased on 3-23-2018

    Hey I did a post a couple weeks ago warning this update. My post was really intended for the folks who have OEM cargo cam and back up cams pre 2016. The new update removes the forced cargo cam when the vehicle is put in reverse, it does not fix the button selections between the back up and cargo...

    Need opinions on towing 8300lbs-9000lbs

    Yeah I was pushing the envelope with towing capacity. The engine has plenty power, its the suspension and braking that will limit your towing. So adding the HD springs or air bags will help, definitely get a good WD hitch, the equalizer is always a good choice of a WD hitch as well. Allow...

    Need opinions on towing 8300lbs-9000lbs

    People and cargo in the bed would be your payload and not your tounge weight any extra cargo placed insode your camper between the hitch and camper axle will add to your tounge weight, so try not to pack everything up front in the camper. My camper is almost 8500lbs dry with a tounge weight of...

    Need opinions on towing 8300lbs-9000lbs

    I had a 2016 1500 with the 3.92 gears. Towed a 5500lbs dry camper then upgraded to a 38ft 8400 dry camper, load it with everything for camping, bikes etc.. Very close to 10K, probably even over. lol. The 5.7 liter never screamed and ran really smooth with plenty of extra power. The brakes even...

    Ok just wanted to let everyone who has pre 2016 trucks with cargo cam and bu cam. The new update doesn't fix the cargo camera issue with the wrong touchscreen buttons corresponding to the proper cameras. Instead of addressing the issue of the different camera inputs on pre16 trucks and just...

    Uconnect 17.11.17 & RAMs with Cargo & Rear Cameras in Separate Displays

    Yup I just downloaded that and installed it this morning. Worst move, it just removes the cargo cam and back up cam buttons and now the cargo cam no longer comes on when vehicle is put in reverse only the bu cam on rearview. I would have preferred to stay with the older software and just moved...
