What did you do to your Ram today???

[Greaser]

That number missing a comma or decimal point? Either way you're nuts lol

Not the longest interval I've done but I'm trying, seemingly unsuccessfully, to keep to below 15k with this truck. She'll hit 189k this week.

can't run front mud flap with 35s anyways hahaha
mine never came with the rear. not sure if that's even an option.

i do regret not having rear on after the Alaska trip. but oh wells it adds to the character of the truck lol

I have 35s and the Husky mud guards

wild.
i was rubber liners on slight inclines even without mud guards.

probably because of wheels offset i guess.

 

[pizza_pablo]

are you using VHB to attach it to the rubber?
if so, when it gets hot enough it will not stick.
Refer to my thread here:

Thread 'Ram Center Console Qi2 / Qi2.2 Wireless Charging Adapter Plate - Turn the Factory Phone Holder Into a High-Speed Wireless Charger'

Mar 11, 2026

Introduction​

Current-generation Ram trucks include an integrated phone holder and Apple CarPlay / Android Auto capability to reduce the need for placing phones on top of the dashboard while maintaining essential driving functions such as calling, navigation, and media playback.

The location of the factory phone holder is intentionally positioned close to the vehicle’s USB ports to minimize cable routing for charging or wired CarPlay / Android Auto. For users who prefer faster charging than conventional wireless charging provides, this location also serves as an...

I don't know what vhb is, but I super glued male velcro to the feet on the charging puck and a used the included sticker to apply a square of female velcro on the phone tray. If the female doesn't hold, I plan to super glue it as well.

I have stock BTS wheels and 3/4" Bora spacers in front.

I like your badging.

Thanks bud, I keep wanting to finish the rest like yours, I just haven't done it, 3 yrs later.

that's probably it. less aggressive offset than mine.

that's what i meant by VHB.
the rubber backing has low surface energy, so when it gets hot it doesn't stick. the plastic housing on the puck side is fine.

This weekend was the Baja 250. I didn't go all the way to San Felipe to see the races because my intention this weekend was to actually put the new suspension to the test.
I did push the throttle on the whoops. Who's ever been to baja or seen the trophy trucks videos you've seen that even 1million trophy truck suspension they even slow down on some crazy ones haha. So initially I was like- what the heck I'm bottoming out on a few whoops, but then I calm my self down. I didn't spent 50k on my suspension haha.
8112/8100 is really good, no rebound like before. I used to bounce a ton, the other truck who was with us said my truck looked composed.
Once you find the speed and timing, the suspension feels beautiful!.
Being honest, I really went hard and bad, almost to not caring haha. Have a few battle scars from this last trip.

I have more metal trimming to do, my tires are rubbing pretty bad at everything! I might even cut the fenders a little bit haha.
Even my team said, "your truck doesn't look lifted anymore" Ouch! it hurts especially because it took me so long to decide losing those inches for performance.
There was one scary part when racing my team's silverado. At high speed - maybe 80mph my steering wheel went crazy - like the death wobble from jeeps, I immediately slow down and it stopped. I think it is the sway bar being disconnected. It did not happen again, so not sure what it was, but it does feel scary. Curious thing is, in the highway at 90 mph it doesn't happen.

Crossing the border back, I was able to see all the competitors lol!



Battle Scar




Tried one dune - the fun things was without lowering the tire psi (38 front - rear 33)
Just FULL power - really fun





Technical parts - Better flex than the Silverado with 2.5 Fox - he struggled and hit rear bumper several times. I didn't, but I also have front sway bar disconnected, I know that helped a lot to go faster and with ease.

Tried to find some bora spacers and their website said they don’t have any products for 2019-2026 Ram 1500s. Lmao.

How do those Toyos perform? I'm running them to.

Excellent, once I dropped the psi to 15 I was actually running the majority in 2WD for fun.
They are heavy though, don't you think? But I really love them

I do love them but haven't had the chance to play off road or in snow with them yet since I live in South Georgia.

 

[jl13]

Curious as to why? You don’t like un-chipped paint on your truck?

Have always run mud guards on all my turcks. Just all of the sudden i like the look without.
I am gonna keep them in case i need to put them back on. Hopefully it won't be too late or too bad.

Changed the diffs' oil and transfer case oil today. Front differential oil looked new (as expected, since it isn't used a lot), and transfer case oil looked good.

Put Amsoil in the front because I had some left from my TRX's change a couple years ago. Put Ravenol BW44 fluid in the transfer case. Was reminded how much I hate the Ravenol bottles.

As others have reported here, the rear was super dark black, and the magnet on the bottom plug was full of metal sludge. Only 17k miles on the truck, first owner never towed anything based on the rear hitch not having a single scratch or wear mark. I've used Amsoil in the past, but always had to add limited slip modifier, otherwise I'd get chatter in corners. Many diffs with limited slips can use Amsoil without modifier, but not the Ram's.

This time I am trying Ravenol diff fluid that claims no limited slip modifier needed (already has it), will be testing that claim.
