Do you have the backspacing measurement on the Factory TRX Rims? This Wheel Offset Caluclator is handy: Wheel Offset Calculator

I'm a tad late, but was poking aorund the Forums and saw this thread, and I had my Rebel wheels off to try some other rims and took this photo of the back of a Rebel Rim. RAM thoughtfully placed all measurements on the back of a spoke.

Looks great! The picture of the UCA in relation to the tire sidewall is really helpful, see lots of posts on here asking that question.

Checking in with my neutral-drop support group, I now have 69 days with no neutral-drops after cleaning my TB. I also recently installed an OCC to hopefully prevent the frequency of cleaning the TB. The TB is held in place by screws with real coarse threads, (think wood screw threads), that...

It appears that dealerships have not been able to fix the transmission throwing itself into neutral gremlin. There must be lots of trucks where this does not happen, what is different about them? Maybe it's time for folks to start making vehicle safety reports to the National Highway...

Well that is super crappy! I had (maybe still have) the capricious drop into neutral while driving. I cleaned my TB and it's been almost two months with no neutral drop gremlins, it used to happen a couple times a week. This has also not worked for other folks. What mileage did it start on yours?

Let's see, with stock cats & exhaust: Might be a tad louder on WOT, but this is a completely subjective and unscientific observation on my part. The headers do have the steroetypical "pinging" sound I remember from every set of headers I've put on a vehicle. Still lays me back in the seat when...

You'll like the JBA's, they permanently solved both of my split-down-the-middle exhaust manifolds. Maybe RAM can start installing pillows that pop out of the head rests when the CO reaches levels that cause the ole' sleepy time in the truck cabins! Let us know how the headers work out, and if yo...

No cover, just a well used tailgate, in dirty/dusty conditions. I soaked the latch mechanisms with a penetrating lubricant, let them soak for a bit, then blew them out with compressed air. After that, they got a healthy dose of white lithium and they are unlocking consistently now. Might replace...

The best fix I found was, to not drive the truck ;). Cleaning the TB seems to be a mixed bag of results, I have almost two months of no drops into neutral after cleaning the TB. Other folks cleaned their TB and it immediately drops into neutral after the cleaning. After reading and re-reading...

Have 2019 Rebel with standard tailgate that has started not opening intermittently. Thank you to eveyrone that posted fixes on here. Going to try lubing it first. NOT going to dealership, I hate hassles. Me yelling into the wind - I had a 2003 Dakota that I put 225K miles on, and it was...

I cleaned the TB on August 4, 2022, it is now September 7, 2022, and so far the truck has not decided to drop into neutral of its own accord. Was this the problem causing the computer to throw the truck into neutral? Maybe. I really want to see how it does on those cold mornings; <60 deg F, but...

Well, Just so happens, I happen to have some unscientific heat measurements on some up to temperature JBA's (I know they're not AFE's). Hot enough to cook a chicken at the collector and hot enough for a pot roast on the tubes.

No problem, happy to help. I thought the JBA's were fine, thick flange, right at 3/8", welds were all closed, no modifiications needed, some spatter inside, but meh, it's not a race car. The dipstick tube has two brackets: upper one bolts to the upper left manifold/header bolt and the other...

That sucks! Although, you could drive it like that a long time. But it's a good break, once the manifold is pulled, probably will come out with a set of vice grips, should be plenty of bolt to grab a hold of. I can tell you that JBA shorties are basically a bolt-in, have been on the truck in...

No broken bolts, it appears that the new fangled steel plates that run horizontal on the top and bottom bolt holes of the manfiold mostly stop the bolts from shearing off in the heads, they just cause the manifolds to crack right down the middle. I was prepared for broken bolts and gave myself...

Here is a potential solution for the ongoing manifold cracks. On this truck both manifolds cracked. The only tool I know how to use... ...And done, time for beer o'clock. If you read this far, once all the bolts (and a couple custom studs) were tightened, no more exhaust leaks.

I know the TB cleaning had no effect, (bummer), but had another thought on air fuel mixture being off, causing RPMs to stumble at low speed/deceleration. How is your MAF? Might be gunked up after >100K mileage? At 57K, the interior of my intake manifold at 57K is coverded in oil...

As I learned form some folks wiser than myself, we have cast iron manifolds, aluminum heads and steel bolts, plus high temperatures, something was gonna break with all the varied thermal expansion rates of the different materials. The steel bars now installed on >2019 models along the manifold...

Well crapola! Sorry it didn't help. Can I ask, which way the TB was cleaned? For instance; was it completely removed from the manifold, sprayed with cleaner while still on the manifold, or something like Seafoam?
