What did you do to your Ram today???

[RAM REAPER MAN]

went to measure the center console for a project that i've put on backburner for the longest time, and played with designing:

This is a rough mock up with my seating position.
The idea is for me to put a pistol and a tourniquet on the driver side, HAM Radio's speaker and a CommSlot handheld holder on the passenger side for when I spot for others.

I am aiming for a no drill solution.

Doesn't someone offer a similar product but only made for the TRX?
I think I saw something like that but again it may just have been something in my head
I'll look to see if I saved it by chance. Is yours going to be black?

Rear is 35, front is 39. Less weight on the ear tires with no load in the bed.

The one that looks like a 35 is actually a poorly printed or scuffed 39. Without doing any conversion, obviously 270 kPa can not be both 39 psi and 35 psi.

Edit: read further down the chain and it seems this has already been established. Disregard

yes. that one is a drilled solution and a full on cage, if you are talking about the ADD one. There's another one on the forum a long time ago, but that one is also a drilled solution.
this is for people who don't want to drill into their center console or just want a smaller footprint. This is a half done project at this time, since I have an idea for the mounting solution. I just need to make a prototype and test it before I can get it digitized and CNC it.

Mine's aluminum, can be ran as is, or powdercoated. Attached pictures were just a lazy version of mock ups lol

I've sent my truck airborne a few times, but never captured on film (and digitally, you know what I mean) because it always happened when we are actually sending it (though I did share a few in-cab footage). Who's got time for a full-blown media/ content day anyways.
So, instead of setting up a day to get the boys out with various cameras and drones, I asked AI to help me using pictures I took. I was doing some work with AI already so... might as well do that on company time
First two were when I asked AI to go overboard for comedic effect. Second two were when I asked AI to tone it down a bit and make it realistic.

(I mean... who frigging sends it with the tent deplayed LOL)




(note: I wasn't going to say anything about AI but... I'm an honest person so...)

I run 30 rear 35 front on my 35" Radar Renegade

i just keep it uniform on all 4 corners because I use a 4 way hose to air up and down. easier that way.
and after 54k miles i still have like 75%+ tread left and I only rotate tires every 20k because nobody pays me to do it on my own truck and I'm lazy

im seeing this as a joke and am laughing my *** off but i guess everyone didn't see it that way LOL

I meant it as a guide. The tires tells minimum and maximum. You can adjust for comfort as required. Also, not all vehicles come from factory with the exact same tire or have maybe been changed out by someone else. You can find the range of air pressure for your specific tire online from the manufacturer. Running them too low can cause premature wear and mess with your gas mileage.

You also have a lot more weight in the bed, so need the higher pressure.

And the numbers on door jam are a guide, but more specific for your vehicle, not a tire that can be used in any vehicles. So a better starting point.

Well done. Can we see close up pics of the strips installed both turned on and off? I'm curious how they look in the daytime when you can't see the light.

Daytime, close up pictures.

 

[2025 Ram Limited]

Daytime, close up pictures.

They are almost invisible. Well done. How do you get them attached in there?

 

[KichoRebel]

lol yall worrying about keeping tire pressure in line with the sticker while i'm here rolling at 33 psi all around currently/ 40 psi all around when it called for more on the sticker when truck was new and empty. i lowered the tpms threshold long time ago from 55/45 to 40 all around, then down to 35 all around.

lol! Me too! I'm at 33 psi front and rear on my MTs Toyos 35s. Just feels way better! Unfortunately the Diablo I3 does not have the tpms setup to adjust (I thought it did) so I always have the warning light! I hate it! haha

yeah that DING and the warning light annoys the heck out of me lol
especially when we're wheeling and I got the offroad screen on and every time we stop for breaks I turn off the truck. When I restart it the screen goes back to tire pressure... like I KNOW IT'S LOW. I TOOK AIR OUT. and i gotta do my clicking to go back to the offroad screen.

"make it dramatic"

Replaced the rear shocks with some nice shiny Bilstein 4600's, tomorrow she'll get a new pair of wellies on the back as one of them turned into a trackday slick thanks to the rear passenger shock giving up.
Do these trucks have a fancy self-leveling system on them? I would have expected the ride to be considerably worse considering the amount of semis and trucks that have been flashing their headlights at me - can only assume it was for a bouncing wheel as it only happened when I passed them - didn't realize it was a thing to flash others for dodgy shocks what with the amount of old beater trucks on the roads round here that have that bounce going on!!

might be your fog lights, I also get people flashing at me here and there but I always assumed it is because my truck is 4 inch lifted and I never adjusted the lights to point down

 

[Greaser]

Definitely not my fog's, we Brit's are taught to use them for foggy type conditions, not as daytime running lights. No-one flashing me today on my 190 mile round trip to and from the job site...

You can really tell a difference in the ride with a few psi lower? Am I reading that correctly ? Incredible

Oncoming drivers flashing their lights are usually due to a multitude of issues.

1. Lifted trucks that have not had headlights adjusted down (should always be done).
2. Headlight bulbs being installed into housings they are not designed for (ie LED lights inside halogen housings, etc.).
3. Warning of crash, emergency vehicles, or other hazards ahead.

Changed the rear differential fluid today. Good times!
