    Subject: 2022 Ram 1500 DT — 6’4” Bed Two-Piece Driveshaft vs 5’7” Bed

    Interesting — thanks for the info. So first off, I wasn’t even aware some of these configs were coming in 2WD with that setup. That clears up part of the question. What I’m really trying to understand is the driveline behavior with the two-piece shaft. On light throttle takeoff from a stop, do...

Is it mainly for reduced vibration, fewer moving parts, or overall durability? It also got me thinking about what determines when Ram...

    Subject: 2022 Ram 1500 DT — 6’4” Bed Two-Piece Driveshaft vs 5’7” Bed

    This is interesting — my 6’4” bed has a two-piece driveshaft, while yours (also a 2022 with a 6’4” bed) has a one-piece driveshaft. 🤔 I’m wondering if this could possibly be related to COVID-era supply shortages or parts availability at the time of manufacturing. I’m not certain, but it seems...

    Subject: 2022 Ram 1500 DT — 6’4” Bed Two-Piece Driveshaft vs 5’7” Bed

    Hi everyone, I have a quick question for those familiar with the 2019–2024 Ram 1500 (DT) trucks. I currently own a 2022 Ram 1500 Laramie, Crew Cab, 6’4” bed, and my truck has a two-piece driveshaft with a carrier bearing in the middle. I’m curious whether Crew Cab trucks with the 5’7” bed...

    Hi everyone, I’m looking for some input regarding the wheel arch trim (fender flares / wheel opening molding) on my 2022 Ram 1500 DT Laramie.

    Subject: 2022 Ram 1500 (Non-eTorque) – Persistent Lurching / Jerking From Stop & When Slowing Down

    Wondering if this has something to do with the 2 piece driveshaft. I have the 6'-4" crew Cab 1500 2022 Laramie . Could It be a sticky carrier bearing /adjacent components or the bracket the holds the 2 sections on driveshaft together ? Not sure if the short box 5'-7" bed with crew cab is 1...

    I finally picked up a set of OEM 22-inch RAM Limited rims (almost new—see pics). I mounted Falken Wildpeak ATW4s in 285/55R22, and installed them a couple of days ago on my 2022 RAM 1500 Laramie (non–air suspension). Fitment report: The truck looks amazing with this setup. No suspension mods...
