Had a shop install the Rough Country 5" Lift for air ride. Planned to do it myself, but didn't really have a good, flat work location. Plus the price was pretty nice. So far, seems great. Even found a little mud.

The cleaner pic is set on OR2.


Looks lit (y)! Cant wait till I get a lift on my truck

That looks great! I’ve been leaning towards the RetraxPro XR but I’m worried about the size of the canister. Do you happen to know the size of the canister on your Ultragroove?

Sorry for the late reply. The canister is about 11" tall and 11" deep.

Nope, I found it in the service department at my local dealer. I attached pictures of the packaging below but my google-fu is not powerful enough to find them online. The manufacture website doesn’t have this model listed.

Thanks for this! Apparently the manufacturer doesn't even have this one on their website yet but they do offer a lot of different colors once we can order.

[Update] my back up camera and everything came back to normal after letting the car sit for 2hr+ PHEWWW

My experience disconnecting my battery was far worse. I briefly disconnected to wire my LED lights and my Uconnect no longer recognized my backup camera. Disconnected again for an hour hoping the system would reboot and clear. It only made it worse, the camera apps were no longer in Uconnect and I had a warning that my air suspension required service. I left it alone overnight and the next morning the camera were back and fully functional. I took her for a ride and the air suspension warning light cleared itself. My lesson learned: don't freak out when you know you didn't screw anything up!.

On a side note I'm really happy with how the LED lights turned out. I wired it to the switch in the bed and mounted the switch it comes with in a hidden area to use as a kill switch.

Thanks! I ended up ordering a Truck Covers USA roll top because of the smaller canister (8”x8”) and I can release it from the inside without a key. Hoping it shows up tomorrow so I can install it this weekend.

I've had my truck since October and I've dropped my key fob at least 10 times on concrete so I got myself a case for it. Fits on the fob pretty snug. Buttons are still easy to press through it.

notice nay difference? hows it sound?


There is a big difference in the sound if you don't put the filter decor cover but with the cover you will hear the difference from stock about 20-30% growl on high RPM
( see photo with and with out cover ) the quality of the part and installation was top notch! everything is original and excellent quality!

I've never liked the stock tail lights on my '19 1500 Lonestar with the black appearance package. I feel like they just don't flow well with the look of the truck.
I'm sure this has already been posted somewhere, but here are photos of my stock tail lights in comparison to the OEM LED tail lights
I purchased the black bezel WITHOUT blind spot as I don't have that option on my truck. I purchased them on a Thursday around noon and received them two days later on Saturday around noon. They shipped from Arizona and I am in south central Texas.
This took about 20 minutes to install, here is the video I followed (Note: Please don't buy from these guys in the video, they want $1550 for the tail lights lol):

Looks good - might do this soon too - just plug and play?

Are you doing LED headlights too?

Yea the tail lights are plug and play - when they arrive, it's just the tail light fixture which scared me at first but when installing it, you unplug the factory wire harness from your stock tail lights, and plug the wire harness into the new ones. EZ PZ DONE. (the youtube video I attached on my original post shows the process step-by-step)

The stock halogen headlights are growing on me but I do like the look of LED headlights. Really the only thing holding me back is just the installation process seems.. not fun lol.

Yeah - I'm definitely doing the tail lights but not sure how difficult the headlights are with taking everything apart then using an adapter from Retrofit to make them work rather than just plug and play.

Not the same as the silicone one but I have a leather one like in the link below and love it. Had it for many months now and still looks brand new. Was tough to slide it on but once it is on the fit is perfect.
This is my key .. thank you very much
