What did you do to your Ram today???

[Kazoo]

Played with AlfaOBD and disabled Fog Light Dropout. So now I can have low beams, high beams and fog lights at the same time. Awesome for night highway driving.

Just ordered my OBD reader today...

It was a interesting night!!! We learned a lot of hard lessons the night me and the same friend who helped me with the Raptor liner did our Trucks. We used a lift at my buddy’s shop so I can’t speak much to not having one. It took us close to 4 hours for two trucks, but we had numerous hiccups and setbacks. After we were done we figured we could easily do one truck in under 1 hour now knowing what to do.

I watched a ton of videos prior to figure out techniques and what spots to target. You'd be better off checking Fluid film’s promotional video and videos from YouTuber’s like the Repair Geek. They have some very comprehensive videos and the visuals may help.

From that night we did learn a few lessons that will help speed up the process and make it easier next time.

- Should go without saying, but make sure your Truck’s undercarriage is washed and dried beforehand
- Use a large tarp or drop cloths under vehicle
- Wear a dust mask, tyvek suit and disposable gloves. We didn’t, it can get messy.
- Use multiple lights at different angles to make sure you are applying it everywhere. Wearing a headlamp is not a bad idea too.
- Warm the fluid film or Woolwax prior. I foolishly left it in my Truck during the day and it was like 40/45 degrees outside. It was stupid thick and took time to warm up in the quart bottles soaking in a bucket of warm water.
- Speaking of, buy extra quart bottles.
- ***Understand*** how to properly use the spray gun!!! This is what killed us and robbed us of so much time. We almost gave up. Turns out the Kellsport gun we were using had two different adjustments on the nozzle. We did not understand that and after one truck was done we must of accidentally moved it. It took a while to troubleshoot. We cleaned the gun multiple times, checked air pressure, fooled with the nozzle... so much time was wasted
- If you use spray cans ignore the last 3 points...
- We used a U pattern to spray the truck. Once done, turn around and do your U pattern in reverse. This will ensure you hit everything.

Hope this helps....

This is awesome, thank you!

Tell me about your bed step there. That isn't stock is it? The stock one is usually out the drivers side corner, right? Yours makes a lot more sense to me.

It is stock and is part of the Bed Utility Group. When you get the Multi-Function Tailgate, they locate the step towards the left center.

Well shoot, I might have to get me one of those now.

Looks like for this step to work, you MUST have the MFT.

Well it just so happens that I do. Thanks for doing the research and providing a link. Bit more expensive than I had guessed, but oh well, such is life.

How much did the engine sound change/increase, if any?

 

[Portercycling250]

How much did the engine sound change/increase, if any?

To be honest I changed the air intake after only 300 km so the Hemi experience is low regarding stock sound, and from inside the truck I don’t hear much difference but my hearing sucks like the intake sucks (air).. I think it adds a bit of sound on the exceleration for sure though and am please overall .

Did my first oil change at 3,800 miles. Replaced the oil drain valve with the Valvomax Quick Twist drain valve to make future changes easier and less messy. Used a couple gallon freezer bags to get the filter off with very little to no spillage.
Next up is to give her bath and another coat of TW Ice Seal-N-Shine to prep for salty Ohio roads.
