    Rebel vs all other Trim Ram 1500's -A/M Bumper fittment

    I wonder if you could replace the plastic panels under the headlights with ones from a Laramie? The grill is a different story.

    Weird Brake Issue

    In retrospect, I had something similar happen one time in our BMW 3-Series that also has a ZF 8-speed. I assume it's some safeguard to putting the vehicle inadvertently in gear like I mentioned. Hopefully it's a one time occurrence. It has been for me.

    Weird Brake Issue

    I had something similar happen to me after going thru a car wash. In may case, I think I didn't fully depress the brake before I shifted from neutral to drive. My car was then screaming at me that I needed to fully depress the brake, shift to park, then shift to drive. It's some interaction...

    OFF Road Recovery Gear Opinion

    This. And Ronny Dahl down in Australia has some excellent videos on recovery gear... and what damage they cause in a failure. What happens to a trailer ball hitch if it lets go is shocking for example.

    285 or 295?

    Are you planning on just putting them on and hoping for the best? No level or lift first? I'm really interested in hearing the results if so.

    285 or 295?

    So this is interesting... on the Goodyear website it appears that the 285/75R18's are really close in section width... .2 inches. you might be fine with minimal modification. Maybe?

    Diesel Rebel owners - How is your economy? How's your truck?

    I think it's safe to say that if you're really concerned about fuel efficiency in a full size truck, then a Rebel isn't your best choice. It has the most compromised aero, more aggressive AT tires, and 3.92 gearing. A different model with the deployable air-damn, low resistance highway tires...

    Snowmaggedon in Texas vs. 2020 Rebel

    Good luck and stay safe for all of you in Texas. I have to agree that the Rebel is excellent in snow, and the stock Duratracs do a great job. In deep slushy salty mush over hard pavement they excel, but in really cold conditions and on ice they are limited... like most non-snow tires.

    Cleanup after hitting the trails

    I just recalled something from a different application but seems relevant. Be careful with pressure washers under your truck. You may inadvertently force water, dirt and salt into areas you don't want it and under normal conditions would never have it.

    Cleanup after hitting the trails

    There is so much genius here... I wish I had thought of this last summer after driving thru 100 yards of two foot deep sea water. The next morning I went under the truck with my hose and by the time I was done I everything under the truck was on me... sea weed, straw, dead green crabs...

    2020 Ram 1500 Rebel - factory front hooks - recovery

    Also don't lose sight of the main takeaway on that chart. Provided your bridle is less than 120 degrees of angle, you're putting less than 100% stress on each recovery point... which is the main purpose of using a bridle in the first place. Bottom line, make sure whatever you're using for a...
