If you want to replace the sway bars, too, I know Holman on Truck Show Podcast recommends Hellwig, and he's ultra-knowledgeable about trucks in general, offroading in particular. I don't know if Hellwig will sell stock-replacement bushings or if they only sell bushings for their own sway bars...

. We probably should all just keep quiet about it and enjoy it while we can. Calling attention to it might cause Sirius to start checking. Forums are easy search targets for any company looking for "non-paying customers". .

. Same here, but I value my Ram Boxes more than the long bed. It's a shame Ram chose to not make Ram Boxes an option on the 6' 4" bed on the DT platform. .

. @mikeru82: You're absolutely right, I paid no attention to the date of the SpeedyV post I replied to, and my reply today was completely irrelevant, for which I apologize to the members and readers. . This will remind me to be more careful going forward. I will go back and either delete or...

. How do you get the power steps to stay deployed? Is there a setting? . I wish Ram would put a button on the keyfob for manual deployment of the power steps. Also a way to lock them out so they don't deploy every time a door is opened. .

. That's good news, thanks for sharing the solution. So not a Ram problem after all, an after-market problem. .

. When trying to clear these random electronic issues, you have to leave the battery disconnected for at least two hours. I myself leave it disconnected overnight. . In addition, although sometimes the random glitch is cleared upon restart of the vehicle after battery is reconnected after...

. I'm in the same boat you are, my 2020 half-ton has 5' 7" bed. . I wish Ram had come up with the idea Ford recently patented: . Ford Patents Built-In Pickup Bed Rack With Stowaway Rails and It Sure Seems Handy .

. 1) How long did you leave the battery cable disconnected? . 2) What is the battery voltage? .

. When will it be viewable on your website, with specifications like material, weight, etc.? .

Looks nice. How easy is it to remove the rack system if need to do that temporarily?

. Not "overthinking it" at all. Just pointing out the existence of an artifact of vehicles with regenerative braking that no one else I know of had pointed out before. . It IS worth knowing about and being prepared for by drivers who have counted on engine braking when descending grades for...

. As I said ,probably not an issue for most EV towing situations, because of the large batteries, and as you point out, not all that much energy regained going downhill, but it can and does happen under certain situations, so EV drivers just need to be aware of it so they don't freak if/when it...

. I couldn't live without my Ram Boxes, or my MFT (multi-function tailgate). . I do wish Ram offered Ram Boxes on the DT trucks with 6'4" bed as well as the 5'7" bed. .

That's a great truck, good on you for keeping it maintained and keeping it in the family.
