    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Bilstein 6112 on clip 6 front, bilstein hd springs (+1) and 5100 rear. Cooper discoverer at3 275/65r20. Running boards show up Monday. Got 60k out of the road only oem tires - and my brakes are still better than half life btw…

    Mislabeled UCA from skyjacker? HELP?

    Is this possible? They are labeled with stickers (one of which was upside down). Put on the driver’s side and it didn’t look right Compared to stock: Which compared to the other side: Note also the location of the bracket for the ABS line. Is it possible skyjacker is making these with the...

    Diff Covers - Banks

    Strike that. I think I was mistaken (it seems they do for older generations, and the HD models, but not 5G 1500s). It looks like my options are B&M or aFe Power. If I am buying the Banks argument, it would seem that B&M is a better option?

    Critique my level(ish) plans

    Stuck with my suspension plans as stated above (bilstein 6112 up front, 5100 in the rear) and Cooper at3 in 275/65r20. Added the skyjacker UCA (I saw a cut away comparison on the delta joint and decided the marketing department wasn't worth the cost). And swapped the timbren bags for airlift...

    Diff Covers - Banks

    Other option I'm looking at is: https://www.holley.com/products/drivetrain/rear_axle_and_differential/differential_covers/parts/11306 And, I'm scratching my head with "what is a load bolt, and is it of any benefit?" I have the anti-spin rear axle to the extent it makes a difference.

    Diff Covers - Banks

    If my review of search results is accurate, this may be a can of worms, but I was looking at swapping the diff cover when I upgrade to a Hellwig sway bar. I have no idea if Banks is credible, but I saw a few posts indicated [essentially] it doesn't matter because he doesn't make one for Ram...

    Critique my level(ish) plans

    Here is where I am at right now for parts. I can't believe it, but Amazon is cheaper than literally everywhere else (AT, Summit, shocksurplus, tire rack, and piecing it on eBay). I just need to figure out the UCA (kind of looking at skyjacker. Icon delta, which I want, will put me over 4k and...

    Critique my level(ish) plans

    oh, and Geissele SSA-E and SD3 are my general go-to depending on application (outside of HK91/3/4 I don't like cassette triggers, but I'll throw a Timney in those every time I get one - swapping my -91 to a Timney made it a vastly superior experience)

    Critique my level(ish) plans

    No I mean I've got a lean with the stock suspension. Side to side on the rear is off by 1.5 inches. That is why I am looking at upgrading the suspension components rather than a puck lift and UCA (the front is the same - but about 3/4"). I think my stock springs are worn out. 60k miles seems...

    Critique my level(ish) plans

    Given the variance in height side to side (which is noticeable - not ungainly, but noticeable) I'm thinking I probably need new springs anyway. Looking at tire ratings more, I'm starting to lean to 275/65-20's. But that leads to the next question of whether I should opt for E load rating...

    Critique my level(ish) plans

    2021 Ram Laramie w/OUT ORP. Initial thought was just level. bigger tires on stock rims and call it a day. Wrinkle 1: I do tow, not all the time, but enough that it matters - including my 42hp tractor w/ backhoe that pretty well and maxes out towing capacity Started thinking about upgrading...
