    Switching from 3.92 to 3.21...

    Don't fear the gear, I've swapped gears in 2 trucks before, figure at least $1200-$1500 per axle. 3.21 vs 3.91 is basically 350-500 rpm difference in the same gear at the same speed. With the 8speed, you are basically going 1 gear in the tranny lower or higher with the respective axle ratio...

    MOPAR Rear Wheel Well Liners listed on online build sheet, mistake?

    Thank you for posting the before and after pics, its like they come from the factory 2/3 complete on the liners... will order them today.

    Blacked out emblems, going for a crome and black look.

    I used some heat to soften the adhesive, then a rag and screwdriver to pry her loose a bit. Did scratch slightly under the emblem though when I slipped. They are on there really snugly! Also, I have an extra black ramshead tailgate emblem if anyone needs one; I bought one on ebay and then...

    MOPAR Rear Wheel Well Liners listed on online build sheet, mistake?

    Can anyone who has them post a pic of what they consist of? Mine has partial ones, like front and rear, but not top, thanks!

    10 Day Review- Nearly All Conditions

    Thank you Gentlemen, not a paid stooge post at all, just a passionate, lifelong MOPAR owner. If FCA did not launch this redesign, I would be in an '18 F150 3.5 EB Lariat now. Further improvements I would like to see in the 1/2 Gen cycle redesign, probably in 2022 or 3: Simple Black Appearance...

    10 Day Review- Nearly All Conditions

    Truck is in Signature, I'm a MOPAR guy, motorhead, Engineer and have owned all Gens of Rams and a Dakota from DR Gen to Present. Last truck was 2014 Outdoorsman and I waited for Incentives to improve and pounced on an early-build 2019 with close to the options I wanted. The 1 word that best...

    Debadging Question

    Yep, just swapped my 4X4 to the black emblem and debaged the doors; same ole tape adhesive of the last 15+ yrs; magic eraser wheel on the drill works wonders.

    I just don't get it.

    Don't fear the gear :) I too was hoping for a Turbo-6 with the 2019 launch, I wonder if they are doing the same thing as in '02 when they launched the new truck with the old 360, then debuted the Hemi the next year. With the huge undertaking of back to back launches of totally new trucks, I...

    Towing

    I checked my '14's tire/payload sticker last night out of curiosity and its max passenger/cargo rating was 1320lbs. What are the lighter and higher GVW rated '19s showing here? I wonder if this mainly a function of the factory P-rated tires? I've likely been a little over the 1320# several...

    Anti-Spin Diff vs. E-Locker

    I've owned 4 Ram/Dodges since '03, all with 3.92s and limited slip. To me, it is not a magic component by any means, like it senses slip and boom instantly locks-up and away you go. It is helpful, but in pretty much any sticky traction situation I end up using 4WD anyways. I'm anxious to have...

    Fun, simple tow comparison (e-torque)

    Great work sir, it is amazing that TFL or others haven't gotten their hands on the E-torque yet for testing. Would like to experience how it behaves in slowing down, coasting, accelerating while rolling at mid speeds with engine near idle, light throttle etc.

    Center console or bench seat

    Thank you alow, very nice setup. Does the middle seat cushion flip-up with storage underneath?

    Center console or bench seat

    For you gentlemen with the Bench, is the fold-down arm rest comfortable enough and how about the drink holder location? There are a bunch of Early-build Laramies with Bench that are screaming deals. They don't have Level 1 or 2 packages, so no BLIS or ParkSense, Sunroom, Big Tank etc, but if...

    2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn Pictures:

    Nice truck man, can you post a side view, so I can see the tire aspect ratio to the fenders with the 18's and Off Road tires?
