good to know! so then you could just plug and play the wiring I assume? and mine is 2018 so i have the right usb panel is my understanding. i might have to go this route. seems the simplest. adds more power, my main goal, but also the app stuff. i would just have to get the android version as i assume yours is apply carplay only from what i saw from the specs.

I bought it because it had CarPlay, but it also has Android Auto too.


I know the voices in my head aren’t real, but man, do they ever come up with some great ideas

Finally got my Hemifever tune loaded, all I can say is wow! Anyone on the fence about getting a custom Hemifever tune, do it! You won't be sorry!

It is definitely worth it.

I changed the oil to some RP, gave the enginebay a good wipe down, checked the breaks, rotated the tires, checked fluids all around, checked ride height on all 4 corners for 5100 bilstein reasons

Also applied a copious amount of chemical guys products to it just so a evening thunderboomer could pop up outta nowhere...if I never cleaned it we wouldnt have gotten any rain at all -__-

I keep thinking to myself if there is room in there for 37's :) ******** it cause it seems there is ..
I'm sure the rear will clear just fine. As for the front, I think it all has to do with offset. I rub slightly on the wheel liner with the 3"+- lift from the kings. My buddies bone stock 19' clears 35's with zero rub. So I think you might be able to stuff 37's in there. Im sure there are others on here that have done it.

Installed my 2" lowering springs and airlift helper bags that I got from @ryan russell while I was on deployment. Install was pretty straight forward the truck sits just about level with 5 psi in the bags. Chose the upper license plate bolt holes for mounting the valve stems for the helper bags. Will report back on ride quality once I put some miles on it. Also checked and dumped my catch can for the first time after 1000 miles had about 3 ounces in it.

Emissions compliant tune. So glad I did this. Small tweaks really woke the truck up. Power and mpg= win win for me. Tires will be next. 69c6f6af9286c126330cdde1dcf3786b.jpg

That’s awesome man. You get just the ECM tune? I’d love to compare notes once I get my truck back with the SFT Stg 2 ECM and TCM tune.

Last weekend, I installed the infotainment re-route kit for the backup camera, changed the oil, and added weathertech mudflaps on the back. Would like them on the front, but step sides won't allow it.

Wanted some more protection for the intercooler, so I got one of these. Planned on installing over the weekend, but it didn't arrive until Monday. Still looking at options on the bottom holes.

The factory piece that goes there (seen in ReefRaider's picture above) does not fit on the diesels. The air shroud is in the way.

I have two gallons of RedLine oil on my bench at the house, and picking up some golden transfer case fluid at the dealership this afternoon. Quoted $67 for two quarts after tax. :nutkick:

Planning to change diff fluid front and rear, along with transfer case fluid.
