Put jb metal weld on the four holes on the resonators. Really cleans up the sound

Put some underglow on. Usually have it set to white and it comes on with cargo/entry lights and is awesome. Matches the entry mirror lights perfect. Blue shows up good in pictures though and fulfills my 2fast2furious high school years.

Which underglow did you use? That spread looks good and I want it to match the factory white lights

I'm researching this and trying to confirm since I have iOS and dont want to go the AlfaOBD route because of having to buy an Android device, etc. Does JScan have the 2021 Ram 1500 DT on its app?

AlphaOBD is much better than JScan. JScan is a purchase per vehicle and mainly designed for Jeep’s. I tried it first, had trouble with it, then decided to buy a used Samsung Galaxie Pad for $75 on Marketplace and set up AlphaOBD. The list of what it can do is extensive.

Yeah I guess I’m trying to avoid purchasing another tablet to use and app that only works on Android, we have enough around here. The allure of Jscan is it fits the bill for what I need to do, which is recal my speedo. plus it sounds like you run less of a risk messing up your truck computer with jscan because it’s laid out in a more organized, user friendly format.

I just did a search in the App Store on my company iPad and for AlfaOBD and it didn't come up.

This is what the instructions had me download the from the app store.

Used it to pick up our trailer we just bought. The trailer brakes work but i cant get them to show in the instrument read out. I will use my sons android tablet to see if that does the truck. I am also curious to see how my MPG is effected. I'm figuring that I will lose about half.

What length camper and what is the estimated weight? Thinking about upgrading from our popup next year but I'm worried about how my truck will haul a long camper. The one I want that has a bunkhouse in it is 28 or 29' long I think.

Use a gallon freezer bag. A few YouTube vids about it.

Yeah I saw that. It just irritates me that those measures even need to be used.

Agreed!

I (like many here) have owned a LOT of vehicles. Oil filters should be in a location where you don't have an oil shower whenever it gets removed. That just shows laziness in design. (My son had an '07 Hemi: yeah, he and I would come up with various contests to see who'd change the oil. It was fun...to win.)

However, the worst design I've experienced may be my 2015 VW Passat TDi: you've got to unplug a pump, remove a wire harness retainer (permanent type, so it cannot be reused: you've got to use a new one), shove the harness partially out of the way, drop the cup off the filter (which may or may not come out with the cup), then get the filter element and any left-behind gaskets. All underneath an engine with an underbody cover that has to be removed first. Guaranteed to drain oil everywhere and bathe the wiring and connectors in black diesel-oil sludge.

One of the best? My new Ram EcoDiesel. The filter is on top of the engine and it has a built in scupper. Unscrew the filter, let it drip a little back into the housing, then take it out (paper towels under it). Not a drop goes anywhere it shouldn't.

I've often thought about oil filter relocation kits for some of my vehicles...

That's not AlfaOBD. This is what it looks like...

You have mail.

Installed an Undercover Ultra Flex tonneau, OEM cargo light kit, and Husky mud guards on all four corners. Ready for winter if/when it ever shows up.

Take a look at doing this oil change....

That's typical. That was what the QT code in the directions had me download. lol

This one is 32 1/2 Ft long. Dry weight is 6700 lbs. We will see how well it does next weekend when we take it across the Texas hill country to the Frio river.

If you have the Trailer brakes below the radio, Just squeeze them and it should show up in the Center Drivers Screen.
Mine does that.

Installed the mishimoto catch can, the etorque harness kinda messes with the rear hose routing.

But for the non catch can believers. This was 5k miles worth of crap my last can caught.
