    21 ram 1500 sway while towing

    It's a 6.4 Hemi. Plenty of power and payload now. Ride isn't as good as my 1500 was when I'm not towing. But it's not bad and that sacrifice was worth it to me given how much better it tows.

    21 ram 1500 sway while towing

    I did on the '22 1500 I had. I added some Airlift 1000HDs just to help with some of the squat. They did a good job at that, and gave me a better profile across my truck to my trailer. I've actually since traded that truck in, which was a hard decision, and got a '17 RAM 2500 BigHorn. It's...

    Amateur Radio (ham) install

    That's great! Thank you for posting your installation details. I haven't moved forward yet, as I'm still considering everything. But I appreciate your write up and hope it's not only helpful for me, but for other hams who might have an interest in installing a rig in an e-torque RAM.

    21 ram 1500 sway while towing

    I find it actually easier once you get the process down. You don't have to remove the WD bars and once you have it dialed in for your particular setup, the hook in my opinion is easier and faster. And it literally eliminates sway...not controls it, but eliminates it. They're not cheap, but...

    21 ram 1500 sway while towing

    I'd also recommend that if you have everything else in line that has been mentioned, and you still feel sway, really give the ProPride hitch a serious look. They aren't cheap, but I can tell you as an owner of two of them that they eliminate sway...not control but eliminate it. I hate sway at...

    Amateur Radio (ham) install

    I'm preparing to mount an IC-7100 into my '22 1500 Laramie. Can anyone who has done an HF rig install speak to how the RAM does as far as noise in the radio and how bonding parts together helped? I know on a prior vehicle I had a Yaesu FT-857 installed, I even put braid over the spark plug...

    Anyone Install a Ham Radio or even CB/GMRS in their RAM? Have questions..

    I appreciate the info. I have a tonneau cover so I’m hoping to use the front stake pocket for a mount with one of these…. Ham radio pickup truck Stake Pocket Bracket #910 But I haven’t dug into exactly how that might work and how to route the cables. So I appreciate the info!

    Anyone Install a Ham Radio or even CB/GMRS in their RAM? Have questions..

    Hey everyone. I'm preparing to install an Icom IC-7100 and Little Tarheel II antenna in my '22 RAM and had a few questions, hoping some that might have done this could help. 1. I have eTorque and am wondering what type of noise that might present for an HF radio vs a standard electrical...

    Uconnect T25.51 Update

    Hey all. My dealer updated my radio about a week ago and I'm now running this newest update. Seems like the bass is much less when listening to music. I had disconnected the factory sub in my HK system due to it just being too much. With it disconnected I'd run the bass about +2 or +3 in the...

    Wireless Charging issue

    Heat is the issue I often have with my iPhone 14 Pro Max. I can get the blue light to come on, and it shows charging. However it really doesn't seem to charge, and heat is an issue. I've had many occasions since buying my 22 a few months ago, where the phone will stop charging and I get a...

    Successful Upgrade - 2022 8.4 Uconnect 5 with NAV to 12 Uconnect 5 [with pictures]

    Can anyone confirm the little tray liner part number for the new bezel with the 12” screen? Just completed my upgrade and I forgot about ordering one of those. I did an 8.4 with Nav to the 12 and it was simple as can be. One tip, the power outlet on the top pushes through the opening, not back...

    Etorque generator noise

    So they did eventually hear it? What is the cause and was it anything that needed corrected?

    Etorque generator noise

    Does the whine you hear change pitch with the downshifting when you're decelerating and coming to a stop? My 2022 Laramie has a faint whine that does that when I'm coming to a stop. I haven't seen any issues beyond simply hearing the whine. So I haven't really been overly concerned. But I...

    Successful Upgrade - 2022 8.4 Uconnect 5 with NAV to 12 Uconnect 5 [with pictures]

    Greetings! I’m preparing to do this upgrade and really appreciate your write up. I have a 2022 UC5 8.4 w/nav so looks like a pretty straightforward swap. I’m curious if you ever found a solution for your wifi connection issues?
