    Back-up Lights

    I finally got around to installing the lights for my 2019 RAM that I bought after reading this thread months ago: Added some reverse lights today Fairly easy install. I needed a ratcheting 10mm box-end to remove the plastic trim pieces where the lights are mounted as I didn’t want to move the...

    Rusted Oil Pan

    Update - My dealer replaced the loose / broken dip stick tube under the drivetrain warranty and would have covered the oil pan as well but it was not presently leaking. My plan is - I picked up the POR15 kit and plan to wire brush the loose rust off and treat the oil pan with the kit to try...

    Rusted Oil Pan

    Today while getting an oil change on my 2019 Ram, the tech pointed out my oil pan was rusting out at 57,000 miles and that the dip stick tube was hanging loose. I have an appointment with my dealer for the oil pan and I am wondering if anyone else has seen this. The shop doing the oil change...

    Strange Steering behaviour at Speed.

    My 2019 had this issue and I ended up with a new steering rack under warranty . The dealership has replaced a number of the them - seems to be a known issue. Jim

    Michelin Defender LTX M/S

    I like them on my 2019. Good this past winter in the snow and quiet on the highway. The only downside I have found is they “hunt” a bit on grooved pavement. Mine were from Costco. Jim

    Weird safety chain hook

    After going through the loop, the end doubles back and hooks in a link on the same chain. These are used a lot, but I have not seen one used for a safety chain before. Jim

    How to get radio update files

    Using the great informations in this tread, I successfully updated my 2019 from LR-34.31 to 39.7 and then to 40.1. Took a couple of tries to find an USB that the truck liked, it ended up being an older 4 gig USB. For some reason, I could not get 39.9 to load from 34.31 but 39.7 worked and then...

    2019 Ram 1500 steering gear replacement?

    I had the steering gear replaced under warranty as the truck would “fall” into a turn at highway speed. The fix was the new gear and it solved the issue. There was a thread about this on this site. Jim

    Antifreeze smell

    No there is always a slight smell. It appears to be a value- added feature of the model ;-)

    Best Trifold bed cover?

    I had a BakFlip do the same thing, water leaked into it and it rotted. It turned into junk. The company would not do anything about it for me. Jim
