Hello, I’m new to this group. I’ve owned rams and worked on many. I’ve got this tool that was in my spare tire key bag and I can’t figure out what it is? Can anyone tell me what this is? Thanks 2C69BD45-4743-4CFE-970D-98F638DEDDCF.jpeg3F435AC1-BFAA-4F65-BD1A-5B9091AF498E.jpeg

IF that was in a Motorcycle Bag, I would say Spark Plugs. Can't see how U could do ne thing with the way the plugs are on these 5.7's. BUT looks like either a spark plug wrench socket or maybe goes to the jack (would be my guess), I have actually never looked in my bag, still jammed under the seat with the silly wind up jack. I carry a separate 3 ton bottle jack and a 22 (6) point MM socket and breaker bar for wheel removal. OP; which vehicle are you talking about: Your info shows a 2005 and a 2017.

Don't think so. The hole at the end needs to be big enough for the tire iron to fit in to turn it.
Worth a shot I know mine is in pieces and had a weird end on it. I think 4 pieces go together then the tire iron part goes into that. Sounds like they got it figured out.

That’s crazy the truck came with a spark plug socket. Thanks I would never imagined that.

Did you buy it used? The previous owner probably had a dirt bike and left the socket in the glovebox on trade in. Heres a second listing I found for the identical tool.

All my small chinese motors come with that , unless the new trucks are using that for spare, my 4 th gen just use the end of jack handle to lower the spare tire, I have never used the jack that come with it, but damn sure that is not for the jack. It is for spark plugs, but not on a hemi.
I think I have a couple from lawn mowers as well. But life is too short to use crap like that.
