    Squeak/chirp going over bumps

    I'd have the dealer do exactly what Dave Z's did above. Sounds like an easy fix to a common problem. My chirp went away on it own, and I'd wager whatever debris/metal filings were in there simply got ground away.

    Power steps and river crossings.

    There is no intake for the compressor. It's located under the bed between the frame rails with the air tanks. I drove through about 100 yards of salt water up to my front tow hooks without issue. Not sure about the running board motors, but I have to imagine there somewhat sealed too.

    Squeak/chirp going over bumps

    Sounds like the issue I had with the sway bar bushings. Only happened when it was below a certain temp.

    Squeak/chirp going over bumps

    You definitely have a gripe! Did they replace the struts before they told you about the warranty issue? And then charge you after the work was done? If so... then damn... I'd contact RamCares directly on this site, for a start, and then maybe RAM directly. Did you buy the Laramie from the...

    2021 air ride leaving kit

    I mean... you get what you pay for? Maybe a 2-inch lift while maintaining factory ride quality... for only $50... is a little bit high of an expectation. Just saying.

    Squeak/chirp going over bumps

    How is that aftermarket? You have a Rebel with a Hitachi strut from the ORG installed? Was it from the factory like that? I think they dealer hosed you...

    Anti-Sway bar links maybe?

    Nauset Beach Day

    Ha! No... a bit early for them yet. No life at all there, actually. Some gulls riding on the wind off shore, and that's it.

    Posted some pics of our Nauset Beach trip in the Off-Roading section... thought I'd share a few here. It was a great day...

    Nauset Beach Day

    About the only "Off-Roading" I get to do living in SE Mass is to go out on one of the beaches that allows Over Sand Vehicles. I got a permit for Nauset Beach in Orleans last year, which expires next week, so I wanted to get one last trip out while my permit was still active. The wife had to...

    Front end rattle.

    Might be some sway bar bushings... I just had the whole sway bar assembly replaced, links and all, at 27K miles. For me, in cold weather below 40F, I was getting a rattle going slowly over bumpy pavement. Since replacement the truck is as quiet as ever.

    Rebel hood vent.

    FYI - IIRC there maybe concern on the drivers side that if rain/water comes thru the vent, it could spill out on something electrical... fuse box I think. Might want to check before you make that cut.

    Rebel hood vent.

    Back when these trucks first came out some discovered that. I think one guy was looking into 3d printing replacement vents. Another had just cut away the cap piece with a Dremel and carved the insolation away. It blows my mind that FCA went thru the trouble of making the hood with the vent...

    ‘19 RAM Rebel Light Bar Issues

    This... If your fog lights are off, when you turn your steering wheel right or left past a certain angle the fog lights turn on as a driving/marker light. Tapping your light bar into a fog light... I'm assuming the left one... will turn your light bar on whenever you turn with the requisite...

    Air Ride with DAYSTAR and REVEL Links!

    Could the contact with the air strut be related to the link settings, amount of desired lift, and mode? So different for everybody?

    Squeak/chirp going over bumps

    And yes... I've had both the chirp from the brake calipers which went away on its own, and this rattle/clunk from the front sway bar. I still love my truck, but having a responsive dealer sure helps too.

    Squeak/chirp going over bumps

    This may sound weird, but it could be your anti-sway bar and links. I just had mine replaced. For me, I was getting a rattle/knock over large bumps at slow speeds below 20 mph. It ONLY happened when it was cold out... below 40F. Over 40 and the noise was almost nonexistent no matter how much...
