    Ram 2500 vibration after Bilstein leveling kit install

    I had the vibration. I have the 18 Big Horn gasser. I had a set of Nitto 33s installed when I had the local shop install the Thuren King 2.0 kit and sway bar. I later added Thuren's steering damper and Synergy's steering brace. The ride was smooth up to around 60-70mph. That's when the vibration...

    Level kit pics & suggestions

    I have items inbound to set my 2500 up like you have the second (lower) picture. I like that step bar, did you get it from one of the vendors? I think it would really help my 5'4" wife get in and out of the truck a bit easier. It was either going to be something like this or a step stool.

    Bought a 2018 2500 Hemi

    I got the Big Horn setup so mine came with spray in bed liner and pre-cut holes. Would it be better to cut the holes then have the bed liner sprayed? Once you cut the holes the metal would be bare unless you intend on throwing on some type of paint/sealant. Just wondering...

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    February 1st 2019 and still no fix for the radio issues. The fix was supposed to be sent fourth quarter 2018, nothing. Rumors of a January 2019 push, nothing. Any moron with access to the code in the transmitted fix could have come up with a fix in a week. The only way a fix will be expedited on...

    2018 2500 6.4 seems different after recalls done

    I don't think this has been done to mine. I took it in last year to have a few minor things looked at (third brake light seal, document jacked radio) but I don't think they did any flashes while it was there, at least I didn't see anything on the paperwork. My ECO light has never come on...

    6 months of ownership

    I did look and I will take advantage of the opportunity in the spring, once I recover from Christmas, to reset the thresholds.

    6 months of ownership

    The colder temps have my rear tires at 70 and front around 52-55. Ride is ok. The more I drive it the more I don't notice. I guess I'm just getting used to it. Those stretches of road that have seams every 10 feet or so bring it right back. I hear them in the wife's car and feel them in the truck.

    Thanks. I checked the headrest and it's installed correctly. I'll post what the resolution was after I take it in to the dealer in January.

    6 months of ownership

    I agree. I still have the Firestones on. I have messed around with the psi a bit. Each time I got the rear tires down to where it started giving a much better ride was around 55 or so. The TPS alarms long before I get there. Fully inflated the rear tires develop the "strip-of-no-wear" (kindof...

    6 months of ownership

    6 months of ownership and the more I drive my 2018 2500 Big Horn 6.4 the more I like it. Only a couple very minor issues: leaking clearance and high brake light and both were fixed by the dealer. The sliding rear window drags to a stop at 2/3 open and I'll get that fixed in January. I don't use...

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    Got it back. Writeup: Cust has received update notices for unconnect at that time the sound to over bass, no minimal mid and treble muffled. Confirmed condition as noted in star case S1808000235 Engineering will be releasing EQ fix over the air in 4th quarter of 2018. Still crappy sound, update...

    Lights

    Took the 2500 in for a couple things, two of which were the clearance lights filling up with water (as in looking like 5 fishbowls on the truck) and the third brake light wire protruding out the top. The clearance lights writeup: Service bulletin confirm customer concern as per technical...

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    If it were for just the radio thing, not worth it for me. They are a 40 minute drive away. They're looking at something else mechanical which is the real reason for the trip. The radio thing I added just to get it on the record.

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    Mine is going to the dealer for an "evaluation." I don't expect anything from it but I do expect them to figure out what is emitting a high-pitch squeak on cold starts and fix it. Meanwhile I finally got my Dad's old 99 Dakota back on the road, been working on it for 2 years, and enjoying every...

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    Same here. There's a tone now that seems to fade away in a funky sound. The tone starts the sequence then the beeps when I get close to something. Is there any way to disable this OTA capability? Once this sound issue is fixed, I don't want ANY outside access much less the clowns at uconnect. I...

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    Great news Zabbu. Hope they send the fix update soon. I can't listen to the radio the way it is now. Mine is a daily driver; I mute it and turn off the screen as soon as I get in the truck. Lots of quiet driving since the update. Pretty irresponsible to deploy an enterprise-wide software update...

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    Yeah sad my first post is about this issue. No complaints on the truck so far. No mods, still stock. I did air the tires down. It's pretty unforgiving without a load at 60/80 psi.

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    The Uconnect OTA started loading on my truck yesterday morning at 6am when I got to work, 10 Sept 2018. The radio powered up but had no audio until around 5pm that evening. I tried it at lunch and on the way home at 3pm, no audio. It sounded fantastic before the upgrade, now I have the same...
