    Losing my mind over light sockets

    Sorry, I never followed up on this. tbh, I just decided to live with it and it went away after a few more months.

    Losing my mind over light sockets

    OEM sockets and incandescent bulbs.

    Exterior kind of boring

    I think the popularity of the 4th gens, driven by looks, power options, and price, seems to have put so many of these trucks on the road that it’s hard to find a unique looking one.

    Retractable running boards

    Definitely one of the weirder bits of helpful information.

    Exterior kind of boring

    Bumpers, sport hood, and tires are gonna make the biggest difference in looks, but all 3 are fairly expensive.

    Losing my mind over light sockets

    Sorry if the answer I’m looking for is in here already. Ton of posts about this, I know, but I must be missing something. I got the old “parking light out” message. I tried the third tail light bulb fix. Still got the error. I noticed it only happens when headlights are on. I bought new...

    What are some good seat covers?

    I got the Caltrend “leather” seat covers and they look pretty good but they need some occasional adjustments to keep them from looking like covers. If I were going to do it again though I’d get the marathons in realtree.

    Overland build lift height options

    @Bluestreak4thgen i don’t want to highjack your thread but I’m curious about your Uwharrie experience so I’ll start a thread in the outdoors section if you wouldn’t mind having the conversation.

    2in mopar lift or bilsteins + 1.5 icons

    I see that the 2” lift kit excludes the Outdoorsman. Any ideas about why that is? Or what parts I’d need to swap out for the same effect? I know there’s an urban legend about the Outdooorsman being higher from the factory but no one can ever seem to prove that’s true, or why they think that.

    Ford owner thinking about a Ram, tips?

    I swapped a 2005 F150 for a 2015 Ram 1500, and I think the one thing I wish I'd known about was the transfer case debate. There are 2 transfer cases available on 4th gens and you should probably read the threads here about it and make up your own mind. I ended up with the transfer case that I...

    AT tire recommendation?

    I had an appointment made at NTB to buy the Coopers a while back because they were about the only thing I found that was reasonably priced that I liked in the 275/60, but they either don't have the tire in 275/65 or the price wasn't good, don't remember which. I kept flip flopping on the...

    Dial shifter got me

    But then you miss out on the fun of giving your friend the keys to move your truck and watching them sit in there looking confused.

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Needs a bath desperately, I know, but finally got the new shoes on.

    Be sure to keep an eye on the temperatures though! It's hot out there!

    Works pretty good for not much money.

    Kayaks

    I have a couple of 9 footers that can just slide in the bed and hang out the back. For the 16 footer I have a ladder rack that I bought at northern tool for about $100 that I can take on and off as needed with some clamps I got at Amazon. Kind of a pain to move the toolbox to add the ladder...

    Stock Goodyear SRA tires replace or run 'em poll

    As much as I hated them, I still ran them until they were gone. I do wonder though, since some of us thought they really sucked in the rain, and others had no complaints in the rain, maybe it's a quality consistency issue.

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Yeah, and she got home first. But after riding in my truck in the rain, she's ready to replace the SRAs as much as I am.

    Lets see what you are towing.

    Not sure if the rear suspension and the 3.92s can handle the 320 pound boat.

    Boggled by little boat

    It's always time for a new boat! Maybe a stupid question, but you're not hailing around a bunch of water in the bilge are you?

    Wheel hop in deep sand solutions

    +1 for airing down to at least 20. I've gone as low as 15 in my old F150 with BFGs. What beach are you running on? fwiw, you are also likely pissing off the old timers running along behind you after you added the speed bumps to the ruts, but they'd probably be pissed at somebody for something...
