    Smallest wheel size

    Be careful posting and reading information on this forum as it is 99% 5th gen and a 2019 classic is a 4th gen ram and alot of stuff is different between the two.

    Motofab lift kits questions (not just the front level)

    I'm a curious as well as I still want rake but want to fit 35's. The Motofab 3" front and 1.5" rear looks to be what I want. I have no ORP so from what I read I can go 3" without issue.

    Has anyone installed a Whipple on a 2019 Ram yet?

    Read my reply above, the mechanical limitation is the rotating assembly. The N/A hemis are exactly that, built for N/A. Tight ring gaps with low tension rings and 10.5:1 compression ratios are not boost friendly. Change out pistons and rings for 9-9.5:1 comp ratio and gap the rings properly...

    Has anyone installed a Whipple on a 2019 Ram yet?

    The first weak point on these engines you will find once boosted is the piston/rings. They are low tension and have very tight ring gaps. Once boosted the greater cylinder pressure/temperatures end up causing ring ends to touch and causes ring lands to break off(similar to GM/subaru but at...

    2020 Rams come with 100,000 mile warranty

    You only had to bring in your vehicle for inspection for the "free" lifetime powertrain warranty. The lifetime maxcare or added care plus FCA warranties do not require an inspection, just that you have records of doing maintenance at proper intervals.

    I am talking about the dealer order screens(going to dealer and talking with sales). Ramtrucks.com has not been updated yet for 2020 models yet and most likely wont until end of July / August.

    2020 1500 - any news?

    I honestly dont think they will change much if any. Possible they may run some sort of black appearance package(insert fancy name) for other colors than black or some other thing to draw interest mid 2020 or 2021. If you are ok with the base colors then I see no need to wait, can get split...

    2020 1500 - any news?

    Not at this time as ordering banks just opened. Im giving it a few weeks until RAM updates their site with the 2020 info or at least does a press release to let us know whats coming for 2020. I really wanted a Blue Streak Laramie but by the time I tried to order they had closed orders for blue...

    Are Ram Mechanics good resource for explaining options?

    Ok, to answer your first 2 questions. With what you explain it seems you will benefit more from skipping the Offroad group with electronic locker and get just the Anti spin diff. The elocker only works when button is pushed and disengages at normal road speeds as it is designed to lock the 2...

    TPMS not working with Fuel wheels

    OEM sensors will self calibrate to the truck and wheel location, non OEM sensors will have to be programmed to the truck and then reprogrammed everytime you do a tire rotation. Some Non OEM sensors even have to be programmed with a ID number first then programmed to the truck.
