A few questions on the 2019+ PWs

[EODHorn]

1. Is there a reason they only have the projector LED headlights as opposed to the adaptive headlight system offered in the other 2500’s?

2. With a 3.5” lift or lower is there any special considerations for the front sway bar disconnect, and will the dealer flash the cpu to get proper speedometer readings?

3. Do the Ram Boxes have self-draining? Also do they have interior lighting?

I am sure more questions will come up as I get closer to buying one, absolutely love them.

I cant answer this one

The largest lift for the 2018 was a 4.5 from rough country. I have that lift and you can see my build thread here. Most of the lifts have drop brackets for the swaybar so it will still function as designed https://www.ramforum.com/threads/my-power-wagon-build-thread.150253/page-7

3. Do the Ram Boxes have self-draining?

They have drain plugs on both side of the box

Also do they have interior lighting?
Yes

I am sure more questions will come up as I get closer to buying one, absolutely love them.

Thanks for the info. On the adaptive head lights the only thing I could think of is lighting pattern. With off-road considerations in mind maybe you get a larger beam area with projection versus the adaptive. Otherwise it doesn’t make much sense.

So another question. If you have the dealer do the lift, anyone happen to know if they flash the CPU to get the speedo corrected for larger tires?

It's up to the dealer if they have a recalibrate device. Most dont. I got the scantool mx and alpha obd plus the security bypass from @DeereGuy and did it myself. Plus the dealer will not reprogram the tpms thresholds for the low pressure tire light if you run under the factory settings. You need alpha to do that and the 4 digit pin code from the dealer.
