Best Mods for Under $100

[SitKneelBend]

Not sure if this is already in this thread, but for $99 this is an awesome addition. It indicates 2019 and up but I can confirm that I used for my 2018 2500. I had to reuse the original largest bolt but everything else replaced perfectly.

ASOPARTS Rear Corner Bed Step Retractable Bumper Step,Compatible with 2019 2020 2021 2022 Dodge Ram 2500 3500, Replaces Truck Rear Tailgate Bedsteps # 82215842AE 82215842AC 82215842AD 82215842AH https://a.co/d/eeODMsv

I like that. I wish I could find one for the 'older' trucks. But, I did find this one, although it's not retractable. Has anyone used this one from DeeZee?

Don't do it. Your shins will thank you...

I keep a Rubbermaid step inside the box.

It takes 3 seconds to deploy into the optimum stepping position and another 3 seconds to stow away.

I think I bought it on sale for about $7.

I keep one in the bed too. Comes in handy if I need to do anything under the hood as well.

So got off my butt and installed some sealight leds lights, low and highbeam.
I actually purchased the wrong set initially off amazon as I didnt notice it was a set h11 for the highs and hb3 for the lows.
Emailed sealight directly, explained I needed 4 h11 as i have a warlock with projectors...the sent out another set of h11s and had them within 2 days....top notch customer service!

Install was a breeze, lights have an adjust locking mechanism so clocking them to the 3/9 position was pretty simple...most time consuming part was finding the right position.

Finally no more yellow lights! (Just desperately in need of a wash)

Will see how they pan out overtime but for under a $100 canadian and the great customer service well worth the bucks

Should be 2 sets of 9005, not h11...

I installed Underground Lighting LED's in the taillights on my Big Horn.

These things are BRIGHT!

No hyperflash but I did have to sic AlfaOBD on the truck and config the BCM to LED lamps to get rid of the infamous "lamp out" error message.

IIRC, there are 3 potential types of lighting, at least for my '21 Warlock.

The basic option has H11 & 9005s and the set I have are called Premium Projectors with 2 sets of 9005s.

Don't ask me why I know that. One of my friends will be receiving complimentary set of H11s.

I'll have to consult the owners manual again for the bulb types on the 3rd option.

HB3 is another name for 9005.

Early projector trucks got 9011/9005, quad reflector trucks got h11/9005, newer (2016+ I think) were 9005/9005. Though, I believe 9005 and 9011 are interchangeable. Or interchangeable with minimal modifications.
Trucks with the single bulb used h13 bulbs. I'm pretty sure the warlock trucks came standard with projectors, as that was part of the draw to them, rebel looks with a tradesman/big horn interior.

[1 MEAN66]

Added Morimoto Boost Bar License Plate light ( $77.50) It is designed to be wired into your reverse light circuit. Most of other "stuiff" added over the $100. Like it so much put one on the Wife's C6 Vette. That picture is added as you get an idea of it size. I got mine from American Trucks, it is a universal light. Has 54 LEDS! brighter than my 66's headlamps!!

This is going to be my next non appearance mod. I had a 15 gmc with the tailgate assist and got spoiled

I got to do that too. I have 2 trucks, the Ram and a GMC which has the tailgate assist. Every time I lower the Ram 'gate I drop it.

 

[Warlock2024]

Has anyone found the tailgate assist for a 2024 1500 Classic? All of the ones I found on amazon, say "doesn't fit 2024 Ram 1500 Classic" even though the description for them state they do.

If it's a classic the one from Deezee should fit. Can you take a picture of the driver side tailgate opened and post it?
