What did you do to your Ram today???

[31RamIt]

Luckily I bought at America's Tire; unluckily, I did not buy the Tire Certificate which would cover replacement. Luckily, they let you buy the certificates up to 30 days after your tire purchase. So, I bought it over the phone and I'll go get the tire replaced on Monday...

Guess I bought another new tire for it.. Not like i just bought these tires on tuesday or anything..

EDIT: Also, if someone could figure out how a razor blade gets turned up like that and sticks into my tire, let me know. Because it feels like someone propped it under there in my driveway or something. I'm the third truck in a few weeks to get a flat on my street.

All kinds of bad crap happens when you can't/don't park in a garage, even if you don't live in the hood.

Yeah, unfortunately my wife gets the garage along with my motorcycle. We have a 45 foot driveway with the truck directly under my camera. So, I don't think it was anything shady. Just think I picked it up on the way to work or something.

Reminds me of the first ride on my Ducati. I caught a 5/8” hss drill bit in the tire. It amazed me, but definitely not as much as it amazes me that a cheap utility blade made it into your tire.

Could've happened in a parking lot somewhere? People suck and that doesn't look like something you just ran over.

It was fine when I left for work at 4am, then when I came out of work at 1700, my tire pressure light was on. Drove to my in-laws nearby to fill it up then went home fine. Came out and saw the razor this morning. So, I'm guessing it must have been during the drive OR it didn't start leaking after i ran it over in the driveway.

Ever since I installed my BDS 3” progressive rate rear lift coils they would slap together over every bump and it was super annoying, so I put some foam weather stripping on them and it fixed them 100%! They’re silent now! It’s kinda ghetto I guess but I wanted to make sure this was the sound I was hearing before I spent $70 on isolators. If this stays on, great. If not, at least now I know to get the isolators. Side note: I really underestimated how much droop this truck was capable of even with just basic bds coils and shocks! I maxed out my jackstands at 25 inches high on the frame rails and I still couldn’t even get the 37” tires off the ground!

Oh, on a good note, I ordered my Pulsar today without telling my wife. So, we'll see how that goes on the credit card statement. Shout out to @Accessory.Parts for hooking it up, as usual.

Converted my OEM LED tail lights into Night Edition replicas using VHT Nightshades. Taping them off was a PITA but it was well worth it. Zero issues with the blind spot monitoring system or cross-path detection. Pretty happy with the results, especially for the price (~$40).

Very nice job, how did you handle taping the curves?

Come on man! You can't be serious.

I installed my tow hooks. They’ve been waiting in a box for several week, I’m glad to have them on the truck.

Finally installed my Net Audio box with Sundown SA-12 sub and Sundown SFB-1000 amp.




And removed the teeny tiny factory Alpine subwoofer


And I also discovered that blue streak pearl is the same shade as Bud Light!!!!!

I put a 2" Motofab spacer on the front shocks and think it came out rather well.

I had a 7/16 wrench stand on its end just before I ran over it. Saw it at the last minute turning into my neighborhood, somehow it stood up on its end and went through the right front tire. Made it the 1/4 mile to my driveway just to here the hiss of the last of the air escape.

Sometimes tire punctures leave you scratching your head. A number of years ago on a motorcycle ride to Colorado I somehow managed to get this bolt through one sidewall and out the other in my new rear tire. It made a racket passing through the swing arm.

where was the picture taken?

There is an auto skills center on base in Ohio that military and retires and civilians that work on base can use for a small fee and they have a ton of tools.

we used to have a civilian one around here but too many people abused it.

it is a nice way to work on your own vehicle.

Very nice job, how did you handle taping the curves?

Thank you! Taping off the outer curves and the inner curved edges of the blind spot sensor cover was a nightmare. I first attempted to trace the curves out with an Exacto knife but felt like I was scratching the sh!t out of the lenses more than anything. I resorted to cutting out tiny strips of masking tape and using the straight edges of the tape to gradually follow the curves. This was painstakingly monotonous and took up about 75% of the entire time I spent on this project. It was a very crude but surprisingly effective method.

10/10 would suffer again lol
