It's a mini h1 projector, I painted the housing and shroud ($10) the projectors I get through a business account for $70 including the bulbs. The leds were about $300. And just time. I have a Instagram you can check out Americanlighting

cabin air filter mod... may have been easier if I'd used my heat gun to warm up the plastic plate before I tried cutting it but all in all it took maybe 20 minutes or so. filter wasnt a very good fit but I stuffed it in there

Saturday i loaded it up with insulation from home depot. they forklifted the pallet into my bed. when i did this job to my house a few years ago, i had my s10 xtreme and it took 2 trips to get all the bags and equipment home. my ram did it all in 1 :) this job was for the fiance's house.

Sunday i did my first oil change since i bought it. put in Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and a royal purple filter. pretty easy job on the ram. filter makes a little bit of a mess and its far enough away from the drain i cant do both the drain and filter at the same time (with my one oil pan) but i cant complain.

Today, i washed it, detailed it, clay barred it, and sealed it with some griots garage polish and sealer all in one. its so shiny. truck sits outside 24/7 so i wanted something that lasts. reviews say it holds up pretty well. we'll see.

Taking her on the first road trip, chose the coastal route. I gotta say, I'm impressed that a Hemi can get this kind of mileage and ride so damned smooth. I miss my reg cab, but the extra space, 4x4, and ride more than make up for it.

Drilled out a new flange for the exhaust cutout dump pipe. I didn't like the notched-out holes I had to do in the first one...

Installed new Spohn panhard bar bushings.

Bushings were giving you trouble?

I think the bushings were over-greased which caused them to stretch and this allowed the panhard bar to move around and make a little clunking sound when I hit bumps.

That's the theory anyway lol, I haven't driven it enough yet to know if the new bushings fixed the clunking.

Haven't yet posted here -- this past week w/break in the winter weather in Central Texas I got my running boards installed (black Raptor 4" wheel to wheels), Bedtred bed liner to go along with the AMP bed step. Now that all of that is done, will be sorting out what to do next. Probably will start looking for a good (meaning sturdy) narrow truck box for the bed. After that will start digging through the myriad paths of upgrading headlights. I have the projectors in my Laramie, so may well see how just a bulb upgrade works before commiting to the HID upgrade path.
