Well gents it has been a good run with this truck / build. But like all things it’s come to an end. I didn’t think I was going to take it this far, but I’m crazy like that lol. I can honestly say my only and MAIN disappointment was dealing with Billet Technology concerning my paid for since August oil catch can. I’m not here to bash them, but I can say in all honesty that I will never buy another thing from them.

That is solely the one thing that has soured me on this build. With that being said I’m short one more thing and then this will just be driven and enjoyed. Hopefully I’ll be able to post my next vehicle if that arrives as it’s supposed to. :)

Well I received a bit of news and if what is said is true, I’ll be swapping out my current Mopar lift for the BDS 4” one...af2605b7f8b21813bf85cd96b6bc1ee0.jpg

Having my front tint removed as I’m tired of not being able to see when I’m backing up at night due to the POOR reverse lighting these trucks come with..3410f683ab89a3942b13d0357334eacc.jpg

Add in some cubes. I don't have to roll down the windows anymore. I don't think they would look out of place on your build or any truck for that matter.

Ok I have to make a decision, either I add new tires onto my factory wheels sitting in my basement, or I put them up for sale. Technically I don’t need them as I’m running Rebel wheels now and both sets have TPMS sensors. If I don’t keep those oem wheels I’m feeling I’ll put my oem tires (10,000 ) miles onto those and sell as a complete set for $500.00...

Ok had a set of Toyo Open Country AT / II installed (295/70/18 ) on my Rebel today. Also ordered and hope to receive soon my Rough Country so that I can calibrate these tires to my speedometer.9882676e49f8be4ba7f28efc5ed8502b.jpg12163a8cb1b6941123291b3c48fbb14a.jpg

Today’s deal was I swapped out my Borla Touring and went back to the factory oem exhaust. Talk about a R.I.P moment, I think a tear was shed for that looooong silent ride back home.

Wow just read all 28 pages you have put in some work on that 19 ram. Though you have had ups and downs getting the parts you desired but overall it looks great and love everything that was done to it looking forward to when the SQ system is complete. Question not sure if you still have them off or on the truck but if off could you measure the overall length of your Carven 5" tips? I am curious to see if they would fit on my 18 as I like the design of those more than the 09-18 style.

Actually the Carven tips are with their new owners and I’m back to oem tips for now. As far as the watch, they sent me an email encouraging me to join and when I did I saw and purchased that watch.

Newest update, I’m sure it’s worked for others, but LT 295/70/18 wasn’t doing it for me. Those Toyo are great tires, but that size even with my Mopar lift wasn’t giving me that warm fuzzy feeling. So I’ve ordered LT 275/70/18 in the same brand and they will be here next week. Also my new exhaust system was dropped off today by my Fedex guy.

I have a full set of my factory Laramie wheels, tires, tpms sensors and center caps. I’m trying to decide if I should sell them for $600.00 or just put them in storage.

It would seem that outside of the BDS lift and the Whipple Supercharger,I’ve done all that I want. I have all of the audio gear, just have not decided if this is the truck / vehicle for that.
