    New Truck Decisions...

    Had to sell my 2016 this past year due to some financial stuff. But now, I'm back in the market again. Been looking at Rams, Tundras, and F150s. Really think I want another Ram. But, I have a couple of questions about year models. 1. Is the Hemi tick still a problem with the newer...

    Fuel System Issues... any thoughts?

    I have a 2016 Ram Big Horn 4x4. I bought it used after it was out of warranty. I have never been able to fill up the fuel tank at normal pump speed. Always have to pump it very slowly. Lately, when the truck gets to about the half-full mark, it will trip the check engine light and the fuel...

    Ditched the Nitto Ridge Grapplers Today...

    So a few weeks ago, I posted a thread about my Ridge Grapplers getting louder (like quite a bit) the longer I had them. At this point, I have about 9000 miles on them. Loved them at first. They were fairly quiet (I expected a bit of noise from this style of tire), rode smooth, and looked...

    Nittos getting louder with age?

    I have absolutely loved my Nitto Trail Grapplers. Went from a normal "highway l/t tire" to these, as I liked the look. Sure, there was a bit of extra road noise, but not bad. The extra grip was amazing. I've had them for about 8000 miles now, and it seems that they are starting to get...

    Show me your aftermarket wheels!

    Been contemplating getting some aftermarket wheels for my 2016 Big Horn 4x4. Not really wanting to lift my truck, and will probably stay with the stock sizing, as I do not want to replace tires at this point. So, I'd love to see your aftermarket wheels in the stock setup. Thanks!

    Auto-Up feature on window stopped working...

    Guessing this is probably just a problem with the interior switch on the arm rest? Rolls down fine (auto, etc.) but will only roll up now if you hold it up (no auto). Driver's side. Does this require a replacement of the whole switch cluster?

    Sport LED Tails on a Big Horn, etc?

    Saw a Sport today, and saw the tail lights. Never had noticed the difference before. Look pretty awesome, IMO. Question is, have any of you put these on a non-LED truck like a Big Horn? I know they fit, but I'm guessing you'd need some kind of adapter for a non-LED setup?

    Interior Stickers... pretty cool!

    Okay, got the idea (and the lead on who does this stuff well) from another forum member. Ordered a couple of decals to personalize my Big Horn Ram just a bit. First was a sticker for the "RAM" lettering on top of the center stack. Second, was a decal for the shift knob. This was a...

    Recon lighting... really that much better?

    Okay, lots of tail/headlight/floodlight questions floating around here, so I'll add another. With the recent nonsense regarding Morimoto (premium priced product) having issues, I'm wondering if higher-dollar lights like Recon are worth the difference in price vs. a company like Spyder...

    Stopping Power Brake Pads/Rotors

    Any of you guys used Stopping Power Brake components? Curious to hear about real world experience. Amazon reviews seem good, but wondered if you guys had experience with them. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005UB4FF0/?coliid=I3FT0KMBWL8P1Q&colid=3CVH0L500JLT1&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

    Tire Tool Kit

    Okay, just discovered that my 2016 Ram 1500 did not get to me with a tire change tool kit. Jack is there, but that's it. Anyone know of a place to get one without ordering from Mopar?

    Smoked vs. Clear vs. Red LED Tail Lights

    Okay, I'm fine with my headlight setup, and the led bulb in the tails is an improvement. However, I've been wondering about a set of led tail lights, such as these examples from Spyder. My question is, do you give up any light output with the smoked lenses? Got any pics of these on your...

    Headlight Upgrades... are the XB LED by Morimoto worth it?

    Absolutely love the look of the XB LED lights with the DRL and LED turn signals. Pretty pricey headlights, for sure. I know a lot of you have tinkered with different "levels" of LED replacement fixtures. Are the XBs really worth the price tag?

    Replacement Bumper?

    Okay, I've gone back and forth on what to do about my bumper. It's hard to see from this photo, but there are several pretty good dents in the front bumper. Main one is just above and to the left of the driver side fog lamp. Could I live with them? Sure, but they bug me every time I walk by...

    Ever mount a light bar like this?

    Saw this truck this weekend, and snapped a photo. I've never seen a light bar mounted directly to the bumper. Saw the truck later in a parking lot, and saw that it was mounted directly to the top of the painted portion of the bumper, and was a curved light bar. Any of you ever mount one like...

    Replacing Seat Covers...

    Okay, bought a set of oem seat covers for my truck. When I purchased it, there was some minor tearing, etc. on one of the seat bottoms. Got a good deal on an entire set, so will be changing at least the seat bottom cushions front and back. I'm pretty good at doing mods myself, but have never...

    Adding Trailer Brake Control

    Wondering about adding the OEM trailer brake control module to my 2016 Big Horn 4x4 with the 5.7. What all would I need to do this, and to activate it, will Alphaobd be all I need?

    Swapped to a Stubby Antenna

    Came in today, and swapped it out. Was the "premium" model recommended by several in another thread. Did a quick check on reception, and local channels seem fine in the garage. Will test it out later. Don't listen to the radio a lot, so it should be fine. Definitely like the looks better!

    Anyone have a Westin HDX Grill Guard?

    Curious to see if any of you have a Westin HDX grill guard on your Ram? Really thinking about putting a guard on my 2016, and debating between the HDX and the Ranch Hand. I like the powder-coated matte finish of the Westin better, but I know Ranch Hand makes good stuff. Here's a link to the...

    Cleaning Chrome Wheels

    Bought a used 2016 Big Horn, and there is some black stuff on the wheels. Not tar or scratches. Guess it's just dirt/brake dust that has stuck. Any ideas on what would get that kind of thing off?

    Went a different route on steps...

    Been a bit of an odd story. Ordered some Oedro steps, which were damaged in shipping, got a refund. Bought a set of OEM take-offs from a guy locally, but decided it wasn't the look I wanted, so I sold them again. Today, decided on a set of Havoc HS2 hoop step bars. Think they will look...
