Aloha!

I picked up a 2015 2wd RCSB SLT with 17k miles on it about a month ago. First things first, new wheels, drop kit (Belltech 2/4) and 5% windows. I'm loving the ease of wrenching on this truck (last vehicle was 2018 JL Rubicon. SO MANY SENSORS.) Luckily, this isn't my daily driver (I've got a work truck) so I can have it under construction and it doesn't cause too many issues.

Next up is exhaust. Kicking around the idea of true dual side exit 40 series Flowmasters. Also kicking around the idea of headers.

Here's pics. Glad to be posting instead of just spectating.

Convert, for now.

GL truck.
I had the BT 2/4, and really wasn't 'bad' per 'se, but didn't ride good neither.
Id try McGaughys.
If you do the BT kit, retain the front factory shocks, don't use the BT Street shocks.
Headers will help and since its a 2015 I assume the warranty is gone?
Then a tune, etc.
My 2011 below, several wheel options I did.

That blacked out roof looks killer! Do you notice any difference in the temperature of the cab?

No, I actually sold it a week or two after installing it.

I kept all the factory shocks. The ride is stiffer, but not horribly noticeable. The wife has a Mini and my work truck has air helpers and the Ram rides smoother than both, so chalk it as a win!

Factory Warranty is gone. I have an aftermarket warranty, but I bought that as a means to haggle with them on the price (I'll cancel it once I start making mods that'll void it.)

That black roof was awesome. I'm torn about the front bumper/grill. As much as I want to replace it with the sport style, it all looks the same in the dark.

The top was just a wrap, I installed it right before I sold it. Was easy to put on.
