Primed and painted my Mevotech uppers last night and got them put in as well as Bilsteins set at 2.8 up front, Bilsteins in the rear, and Daystar 1.5” spacer in the rear. Sitting at 39” up front (from 36.5) and 41” in the rear (from 39.5). Need to get it aligned next.
I did this exact same thing !

Well I don’t know about y’all, but I think on a darker truck anyways, that they look much better without that tape on the doors between the windows. Finally got a pic snapped and uh, I’m very happy with the results. That Max Steel paint is just too pretty to cover up...[emoji41]066c1a838372b0a238489e9f229f0d5d.jpg

That looks so bad ass!!
Too bad there isn't a company that makes rears as well with the red calipers. I would want the full set. BAER and Wilwood might make some, but I'm not spending that kind of money for brakes on my daily driver. My car yes, but not my daily. lol

Company who made me a set of BBK for my Bmw, Ceika-performance,
8B054A1A-856E-45DA-AC32-C6EC156852A9.jpeg
they would make a set for ram as well, it would run around $4k for a set for both axles.
But if you drive it daily those brake pads would be an expensive item to deal with lol

Debating that move also [emoji848]

Well, I don’t know about yours but pretty much the majority of the reason of what did it in for me other than just not really liking it in the first place, was the way that the stuff wrinkled where the screws hold the window trim into place at the bottom of the windows. Was like this on both sides, all four doors. 9165dea9195a0fc6ea87af88fe04c881.jpg
That, and I liked the blue showing there on the old Ram as well. I’m very pleased with it and glad I took the **** off....lol.

How is the fit on that grille? I am guessing that is not an OEM grille.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
It’s not an OEM grille. The fit is nice and tight for an aftermarket. The center section can be removed if you want to paint the outside ring a different color. I don’t know how well the finish will hold up because it’s a cheap grill, but so far so good!

I took mine in yesterday for the brake transmission shift & water pump recall. I told them I had the pump that needed replacement, but they had to visually inspect it. So of course they determined I needed replacement, but no part available. Dealer still only able to order 4 per week. I go back on 6/11 for my last free oil change. Hopefully they have one for me then!

I hooked up the trailer and moved from Boise to Vancouver, WA. I took the long way across Oregon and did some camping along the way. The truck pulled the trailer great. I was getting about 2 miles per gallon pulling some of the passes, but I was doing 60, so.... ;) Overall, I averaged about 9mpg over 5 passes (not super high) and rolling terrain. The truck sags about a half inch with around 750lbs of tongue weight. I'm still debating some air bags to fix that as I'm not over payload, but we'll see.

I have the airlift 1000 system. I ABSOLUTELY love it, and highly recommended it. 2a9f8cffc39bba45757764388a0f097e.jpg

I just installed AirLift bags on my 2012 1500 Crew. My trailer is a 28' Coachmen Futura. Haven't had to pull it with my truck yet to see how it handles... but the dry weight of the camper is listed at about 4700lbs and we are totally overhauling it; ripping out cabinets and redoing all of the furniture. Will be weighing it when I do get it done.
