I did a few more things on the ram. I installed a new drivers seat lower foam from The Seat Shop, seat is so much more comfortable now. I installed the Z-offroad LED foglights from amazon. the lights are great nice pattern makes a huge difference. The last thing i did was grease the driveshaft. There was a intermittant clunk/bump when driving in traffic. After some research I found a tip to slide down the bellow on the front of the driveshaft and put some grease around the area where the driveshafts slip into each other to resolve the clunking. Ill see if that did the trick in the next couple of days.

I hope it works for you. While you’re under the truck you could block the wheels to keep it from rolling away & put it in natural, grab the driveshaft at each universal & rotate-shake the joints to look for worn u joints and excessive play at the slip joints.
Best regards
