    Latest software

    40.1 is out for the UAV models. I've been running it for a few weeks now.

    SKAR audio 12 inch enclosure and some other stuff...

    I've got the same box with Skar's shallow VD-12 2ohm. Powering it with a Skar monoblock. I'm not new to mobile audio, but didn't want to go crazy in a truck knowing how far that rabbit hole can go. I've been pretty pleased with it so far. Had it a few months now. More than enough low end...

    Crooked steering wheel

    Either they didn't set it correctly, or they failed to zero the steering angle sensor (yaw rate sensor).

    Tow Mirrors?

    No. Mine are the flip up Ram style but made by Boost. Just like OE. I only had auto dim, heat, and power fold. No other features on my truck. New mirrors do not have auto dim but have heat and power fold. Wind noise is just a lil more vs the factory mirrors.

    Tow Mirrors?

    No. Small convex mirrors are manual adjust but I did opt to have both glasses heated. Sure, I can get you some pics when I get off work today. Will be later this evening and I’ll PM them to you. They look identical to the factory tow mirrors except I have the chrome caps on mine.

    Tow Mirrors?

    Have been running the Boost Auto tow mirrors for over a year now. Solid for the price. Great customer service and they keep most of the parts in stock incase you have a boo boo. https://boostautoparts.com/collections/dodge-tow-mirrors

    Air Compressor recommendation

    Here is another option that I haven't seen anyone mention as of yet. This compressor option is by far NOT the smallest, but it's extremely quiet and portable. Having the 2gal reserve tank for some extra volume is nice. No, 2 gallons isn't going to inflate all 4 tires from one tank fill. The...

    Underseat ported enclosure

    I didn't opt for the 8" but I went with a Skar Audio single 12" ported enclosure with a Skar shallow mount 800w dual voice coil. It's PLENTY of sound and I still have the driver side under seat area clear. Plenty of sound for the price.

    Steering Wheel Post Alignment Off Center

    Nope. You don't have to lock it depending what type of machine you have. If it has air suspension, it must be set to aero/sport mode on most Dodge/Jeep/Ram vehicles. Completely agree. Just call and be polite. Tell them the steering wheel is off center. Everybody makes mistakes and...

    Steering Wheel Post Alignment Off Center

    With the newer alignment systems (especially Hunter Hawkeye Elite), locking the steering wheel is a thing of the past. You can position the steering wheel where you want it, and roll on with the adjustments. A few things could cause this. -They botched the initial measurements -Incorrect...

    Subwoofer

    Yes. 8.4 with NAV. NON Alpine/amped. With ANC(bypassed) They perform ok just being powered from radio. I'll eventually get around to amping them being I'm having to install a line out converter anyways for the sub amp. The new LOC will also help with defeating the bass roll off with...

    Subwoofer

    Alpine S69's. Quite a bit brighter than OEM obviously. My OE's sounded like mud.

    Subwoofer

    Good deal. I'm most likely going a different route with a single 12 and an enclosure that will fit under the seat without any overhang. If the single sub doesn't tickle my fancy, I'll already have everything ran cable wise, so I'll just sacrifice all of the rear underseat area and roll with a...

    I've been eyeballing that one too. Keep us posted please. Pics are a bonus.

    Active Air Dam Warranty Letter from FCS

    Same. Mine failed...and I removed it. I bought a crew cab truck with a V8 and low gears. I am not concerned with MPG.

    Headlight switch fuse

    No separate fuse just for the switch as it controls multiple circuits. As stated above, I'd check and double check the connections to the switch itself. While not very common, I have seen a few failed switches.

    Just noticed something interesting

    Noticed it when I started the early morning commute to the middle of nowhere with the new job. Thought I was having a stroke for a minute....

    Requesting Possible Issue Problem & Resolution Sets - Defrost / Vent Issue - 27 August 2021

    I've got the recirc door noise, but no windshield condensation. Add that one to the basket.

    Mirrors

    I had the standard mirrors with the corner convex. They are definitely useable for lack of a better word. Bought some Boost Auto Parts plug and play tow mirrors and towing is much more pleasant now.

    What Sets Your Ram Apart

    Not going crazy as it's the "work" truck. Sometimes less is more, so keeping it subtle. Just installed some Morimotos because both of the stock halogen housings suffered a seal issue without warning. Yay Ram.
