    Behind the grille lights

    Decided to add some lights behind the grille. Went with some yellow just to add some contrast to the bright white highs, lows and fogs I have now. Wired up using the harness the lights came with, wired to the battery with a relay/switch. Mounted them to a tapped hole in the core support. I...

    Motorola MA1 wireless android auto adapter

    It seems I'm always having to swap cables for my android auto connection every few months, even though this last one I routed and zip tied in place to keep movement and wear to an absolute minimum. Probably lasted 3 months max before I started having issues with it. Decided to do some research...

    Lights behind grille vs ditch lights

    Looking at installing a set of auxiliary lights, either behind the grille or the a pillar using hood mounts. The grille lights would give me more high beam range, which would be nice. But, the ditch lights would give me more side lighting, which would be just as beneficial given all the night...

    Form Lighting Headlights

    So, scrolling through Facebook about a month ago, I saw a post by Lightwerkz looking to test a set of lights on a 4th Gen ram. I already had a set of alpharex luxx single projector 5th Gen HD style, which were ok, but let's be real, alpharex projectors leave a LOT to be desired. So, I...

    Stripping chrome off wheel covers

    I picked up a set of OEM Laramie 20s for free.50. I want to install them, but the finish on the chrome isn't so hot in some spots. I've got 2 different ideas I'm toying with. Either strip the chrome off the covers, and paint them, starting with a plastic primer to promote adhesion. Or remove...

    Alpharex luxx 2500 5th gen review

    I'm contemplating ordering a set of these 2500 5th gen style lights, have watched reviews on YouTube and haven't found much pertaining to these exact lights. I'm currently running knock off OEM projectors, and they're ok, the projector isn't the greatest so the spread isn't the widest. I know...

    Added rear door usb ports

    Been planning to do this mod sometime in the near future, but after a recent trip with the kids in the truck arguing over chargers, this got moved up on the priority list. Ordered 2 usb charge ports from Amazon, came with the wiring pigtails. Pulled the door panel off and essentially probed...

    Nearly free AGS delete

    I found a method to delete the ags for under $1, without having to pull the ags motor apart and reclock the lever arm. Need an 11/64" drill bit (or one big enough for a an 8-32 screw), an 8-32x1.5" screw and 4 nuts for said screw. Remove the ags assembly and pop the motor out. Drill out the...

    Front bumper lower valance for steel bumpers

    I saw there are 3 different parts numbers listed for the 4th gen lower bumper valances. Is there any difference in them? Is one smaller/shorter than the others?

    Another Auxito bulb review 3157/921

    Since I've been having good luck with auxito brand leds, and I've been having issues with others dropping a few chips in the taillights causing bulb out errors to pop up, decided to try the 3157 red led and the 921 back up bulb. Start with the 3157...

    Installed new oem style projectors

    So, let me say that I've been satisfied with my current oem black quads. However, as good as they look, I just really like the look of oem black projector housings. So, I did some digging around. I found these, what are supposed to be spyder brand oem style projectors that supposedly used an...

    5.7 oil pump options

    So, after reading a post on Facebook where a guy installed a high pressure melling oil pump in his 4th gen 5.7 after doing the cam and lifter swap/mds delete, I figured I'd post this thread trying to clear up the differences between high pressure and high volume pumps. High pressure pumps, are...

    Running board courtesy lights

    So, I think my next modification will be to add some courtesy lighting around my steps, either to the pinch weld area or just behind it. My question isn't related to mounting the lights, but wiring. I want the lights to come on when you unlock/open the doors. I'm assuming I can either tie...

    Total Flow 5" Chrome Exhaust Tips installed

    Just got done installing the total flow 5" exhaust tips. I went with the stainless/chrome, not exactly which they are, but my guess is chrome since the entire tip is finished. Fit and finish is great. They are the same length as oem, maybe a hair shorter so they don't stick out quite as much...

    Alpharex 5th Gen 2500 style Thoughts/experiences

    Looking at maybe picking up a set of these headlights (that or try another retrofit if I can ever find a set of duals to open up). But, I'm looking for feedback from people who have this particular style of light. I'm not interested in the g2's or anything else. Just this model. What I'm...

    Tyger Rider step bars installed

    Installed a set of the tyger Rider step bars this morning. Had a set of basic/generic drop steps similar to the N-fabs. Before the knock-off N-fabs I had oem stainless steps that I installed. Removal of the old knock offs, which were only a few months old, was easy, 6 bolts on each side (no...

    Wtb 4th gen dual beam headlights PA/NJ

    Looking to pick up a set of dual beam housings (h13 bulb) preferably in black. Not looking to spend a ton of money on them, someone has to have a set just laying around. Not really concerned if they are oem or not. Would prefer to not have to deal with shipping, hoping to find someone close...

    Bulb review auxito Q16

    I did a thread on a different bulb, from Auxito believe it was the y13. Saw a video review of these on YouTube, and it seemed favorable, so I wanted to try these out. I liked the all in one design, which is something I'm usually skeptical of. That said, I'm actually impressed with these...

    Hit pothole, lost power steering 2019 classic

    Thursday morning I hit a pothole, pretty good size, as soon as I hit, the eps went out, lost all power steering, warning message on the dash. Truck seems to be tracking straight, alignment seems to be decent yet, no broken parts, no bent tie rods, etc. Was hoping a simple power off, power on...

    Quad housing high beams too low

    Running a set of oem quad housings. I've got the low beams where I want them, but the highs are too low, lighting up the ground right in front of me. I've got some room to raise up the bottom adjuster (under the bottom mounting bolt), which will raise the low beams but now I'm wondering if I...

    Steel Wheels

    So, in the interest of saving a few bucks on tires and going for a different look, I'm thinking about ditching the 20s and going to a 17" black steel wheel and probably a 285/70r17 or maybe slightly larger. Has anyone run the standard black steelies on a 4th gen 1500? I'm keeping my eyes open...

    Auxito 80w led bulb review

    So, I bought these bulbs to install into a set of aftermarket (perde/tyc) chrome housings while completed a retrofit on another set of lights. I had a set of h11 hid bulbs driven by 45 hylux ballasts in the aftermarket housings but wasn't happy with the pattern. The aftermarket housings have...

    2019 classic 8.4 android auto disconnects

    Every now and then while using android auto, it'll disconnect and usually it'll reconnect right away. I'm thinking it could be an issue with the cable I'm using or possibly with the media outlet (jump seat console). Usually isn't a big deal, but it's a pain when it cuts out while trying to see...
