    Mopar Trifold hard Tonneau Cover (and Bakflip MX4?) not latching properly

    Since I adjusted the latches they engage the way they are supposed to and there is no side to side movement. I had to remove the two screws on each latch, slide the latch over a bit and then using my drill drive the screws back in making new holes. They are self tapping screws. I did it this...

    Mopar Trifold hard Tonneau Cover (and Bakflip MX4?) not latching properly

    Check out my post https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/what-did-you-do-to-your-ram-today.1686/post-125041 Once you move the latches out they will help keep the panels centered as well. I also found that once everything is lined up square to make sure the front bolts are really snug, but...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Bull Ring 4066. I like that they retract. I've only used them once so far and they worked just fine.

    For those that want to add the factory trailer brake controller...

    Had mine flashed and It literally took less than a minute. It took him a couple of minutes to look up the code, so the whole process was about 3 minutes. I know because I was right there when it was done. Luckily it didn't cost me anything.

    Wind noise

    I can't get to the area as it was behind the dash on the drivers side somewhere near the a-pillar.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I think the one you can add when configuring a truck on the RAM website is a soft cover. I would assume if you are doing a custom order from a dealer you could spec the hard fold cover.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Got my Mopar tri-fold hard tonneau cover yesterday and installed it last night. Mopar part # 82215227AC, ordered from BAMWHOLESALEPARTS.com for $717 + $60 shipping to Maryland. The dealership I bought my truck from wouldn't come down on their price of $947 + 6% sales tax. So I saved about...

    Wind noise

    Here is the write up on the fix for the whistle noise my truck had. It wasn't moving a piece of foam like I was told when I picked it up.

    Wind noise

    Picked my truck up Saturday and drove it on a trip of 150 miles and no more tea kettle whistling!!!!! They didn’t have the full report written up yet but are supposed to email it to me when done so I can share it. They said the fix was moving a piece of foam blocking behind the trim of the...

    Wind noise

    My expensive tea kettle a.k.a. Truck has been at the dealer for 3 weeks now. The call I got yesterday said that the service manager was going to take a look at it. Don't have any confidence he will find the source of the Whistle. I've been easy going about it with them and told them to go...

    Wind noise

    Mine has been at the dealer for two weeks now for the annoying whistle. There is a star case and ram cares case open for it. Dealer is working with FCA but they haven't found the source of the whistle yet. Got a call on Wednesday from ram cares saying they are escalating it. It's the only...

    Issue with Paint - scratches

    My wife has a 2017 Durango RT with granite crystal paint still looks brand new with 35K miles on it. Deep gloss with no noticeable scratches. No ceramic coating just a good wax a few times a year. My 2015 Charger RT scratched if you sneezed on it. Every time they sent me a survey I...

    Key FOB protector leather case

    I don't use the clip. Keep in my pocket with pocket knife and laptop security key. So the cover keeps it from getting scratched up.

    Strictly opinion, no wrong answers...

    My billet silver limited has the painted bumpers. I'm actually thinking of changing them to chrome. My wife parked my truck in the really large bay of our garage (can park a 32' driving RV in it) and she didn't backup far enough and the garage door scratched the center of the front bumper. So...

    Wind noise

    Thanks. I'll double check. I installed it with the channel facing down. I used a USB borescope camera attached to my phone to confirm everything looked okay, but won't hurt to look again after driving it.
