you should be able to copy the info out of the original post, then in a new post make all the additions and changes that you need. When done let me know and i can replace the original post with the info from the new one.

I have just upgraded my 2018 Ram Express from the standard 5" Evic Cluster to the Premium 7" Evic Cluster, Thanks to Cluster Surgeon on eBay. I have seen several Posts of changing the splash screen, but haven't seen a step by step write up for Alpha OBD. Does anyone know of one or could you post step by step instructions for Alpha OBD?

This is a great list. Thanks for putting this together. As someone who is new to the Ram, I will definitely be bookmarking this to use as my mod list grows!

Hey team, does anyone know of a DIY on how to install the bumper re enforcement parts on a sport bumper? I’m looking at converting from an SLT chrome set up. After a few hiccups, I’m positive I have all the parts, just not confident on installing until I watch a video or read a write up of how to do. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I did mine SLT to sport. Let me look up what I had for parts list. It is really easy to do though once you have the parts.

I thought I had some pieces and found out there from a 2009-12 that wont work for my 17’ so I sold them off.
I recently acquired another bumper, with the reinforcement part, the bumper upper support piece as well as the bracket that goes below both headlights. I’m not sure if there’s more to it? I don’t have the hardware, but I believe I need some push pin tabs, as well as 5-10 pieces of 8mil and 10 mil bolts and possibly some nuts. I can’t seem to find a video or a write up.

If you have the lower valence you can reuse the bolts on it for the sport one. In the thread I linked you can see the bolt kit as well that has the two pins that hold the sport bumper on the corners.

I have my fender liners out right now. I’ll get some pics of mine today.

The last picture is where I still need to put plastic clips on the airdam.

So we have a ton of awesome DIY's, I wanted to organize them. If we find it helpful / complete, lets keep it. If we find its not helpful, or beyond repair, we can easily delete this thread. Also Note: We have a TON of threads in the DIY section that are simply not a DIY. They may have some info, or very little. Some have nothing to do with being a guide. We should work to clean this all up and make the DIY section abit easier to navigate and browse.

Note: I posted this as a work in progress so I can get opinions. I'm going to work on this quite abit tonight to try and get as much in here as I can. If you have a DIY that needs to be added, or I missed a big one, shoot me a PM or post in this thread with the link to the DIY for me to add.
