    LED upgrade for halogen reflectors

    You're going to blind people with your headlights putting LED's in the halogen housing unless you aim them way down. Do it right, and get LED housings.

    Anybody using Rancho Quick lift for levelling their Rebel

    Never before had I gotten rid of shocks faster than when I saw my Titan had Rancho's on them from the lot. Never blown a shock unless it had Rancho on the side of it. Bilstein bare minimum.

    SECURITY GATEWAY AND OBDII ACCESS

    I know you said you didn't want to buy anything else, but this is the one I use. Not a cable bypass, you just plug it in. Haven't had any issues with that plus a wireless OBD plug. Works fine with Torque Pro and AlfaOBD...

    Wireless usb adapter?

    I have an AA Wireless for my Pixel 6. Don't know if it's just my truck or the AA Wireless itself, but if I leave it plugged in it'll continuously ping for my phone if I'm close enough even with the truck off for hours. It's slightly less hassle than plugging and unplugging my phone every time...

    Tempting fate, but I just can’t help myself.

    My truck is a year newer and 100k miles less. You're averaging 25k+ a year, damn.

    Ride Soft

    If your payload is actually near 2000 pounds then you have a bare bones truck, and it will not ride like a Caddy. Adding all the things necessary (air ride, softer springs, softer shocks, etc) will only reduce the payload and towing. The smoothest riding 1500's OEM are Limiteds, but they are...

    Highway driving is bad or is it the roads?

    Yeah for me it's not all the time. Here in southwest TN we have a lot of concrete roads instead of asphalt, and they patch them over when they crack. So we have a TON of patched over cracks, and when you're running at 65+ you hit them fast. Makes the truck feel very bouncy at times. Smooth roads...

    Highway driving is bad or is it the roads?

    Program you can use to change factory settings on the truck. I use it with a bluetooth OBD II adapter, and you have to buy a security bypass. Plenty of threads on it, but I don't think it works with 2025's yet as the electronics are different.

    Light bar on '25 Rebel

    Your pictures aren't showing up and this isn't on a 2025, but I put a 20" on the front of my bumper similar to the Oracle flush light bar they make for the TRX. Obviously I don't have the plastic housing they use, but it's fairly inconspicuous, especially if I put the cover on the light.

    Highway driving is bad or is it the roads?

    Unless they've changed anything it's 55 front, 45 rear which is higher than the other truck trims. I actually lowered mine to 50 front, 40 rear with AlfaOBD. Tires are still wearing correctly, and it smoothed it out some.

    Highway driving is bad or is it the roads?

    Mine does the same thing, although I have 72k miles on it. Partly due to the absolutely garbage roads around my house, so I'm replacing the suspension soon. Check tire pressure too, if you bought it brand new they might have left the tires over inflated.

    Battery died again

    All right, folks. Figured I'd update. After having to jump the truck 3 times in 3 days after it sat overnight I think my battery is done for. Haven't pulled it yet (I'll get a new one tomorrow), but the MFG date on my truck door sticker says 9/19. OEM battery is damn near 6 years old, I think...

    Rear Sag on Drivers Side

    I had the same amount of lean as Ready Go, and I put a 1/2" spacer on the driver side. Plenty of threads about it, here's one with a lot of my comments: Rear end leans? Long story short, 1.5" is excessive. I will never be convinced that the lean is normal or ok.

    Rear dash camera mounting options

    Same. No issues with video.

    I've come here to kick some .... tires!

    Don't focus on towing capacity. 1500's are governed by payload. Whatever truck you intend to get check the yellow payload sticker on the door, subtract your weight from that number, subtract 100 pounds for a weight distribution hitch, and then see if you have weight leftover for ~1100 pounds of...
