    Heated steering wheel upgrade

    I’m embarrassed for you all. I felt like a sissy just having a steering wheel heater on my truck...oh well it came with it. The steering wheel gets too hot?? I got some sh!t I could complain about, but this ain’t one of em

    Really glad to see it went to another servicemember, the Gator green color is obviously the best color out there!

    Oil burn?

    You may want to invest in an oil catch can. Might help you keep track of what you’re losing between changes

    Built: 2/2020 / Purchased: 5/2020 I’m surprised you were able to get one. There were only 17 Gator BTS trucks left when I bought it (dealer search) at the end of May. You got a Gator BTS right?

    I got an appointment to get my ORP springs put back on Wednesday. Debbie was awesome and straightened everything out with the dealership. If you find that you didn’t get the ORP version springs, we can give you her contact info

    I looked for it again and can’t track it down. This was back in May when I first bought the truck though.

    Ok I’ve narrowed down my project Ram search.

    Make sure your big horn doesn’t have the bed utility group...less available aftermarket doodads available for it. oh, and the Alpine stereo is a must have for me

    Wow, nice color! Don’t forget to check your springs (tag) and make sure they are the taller “ORP” version

    That’s still low if you’re running falkens. A lot of members claim the outside tread is wearing out way to quickly, which is what happens when you run the air pressure too low. I actually set my fronts at 42 and rear at 39. After 10K miles my tread wear was dead even all the way across on the...

    Ok I’ve narrowed down my project Ram search.

    I’d do a big horn with the off-road package and throw bilsteins on it. That would give you plenty of space to stuff 33s in the wheel well without trimming as long as your offset is right. I’d doubt it would make contact using factory back spacing or even with mild wheel spacers

    Question about BTS shocks and stuff.

    No, it won’t void your warranty. In fact, my neighbor had the RAM dealer install his bilsteins and they even recalibrated his speedo after he got bigger tires.

    My truck came with the Falken wild peaks and the door sticker says 32 PSI which is running them damn near flat. I kept feeling the rim bottom out on the “bump” leading into my driveway. I searched the posts on here and saw an addendum in the manual someone posted that listed the Wildpeak PSI at...

    Question about BTS shocks and stuff.

    I believe they are just an upgraded gas shock. If you really want a better setup with adjustable lift height and better off-road handling characteristics there are these options: https://eibach.com/us/2274/E60-27-011-03-10-RAM-1500-pro-truck-sport-shock...

    Question about BTS shocks and stuff.

    The BTS trucks have the Offroad suspension which is 1” taller springs front and rear. They have shocks/struts that are made for the additional lift as well. Not sure if you’re familiar with RAMs, but they ride on coils springs on all 4 corners, so the ride is phenomenal. By the way, the non-air...

    305/65r18 on Rebel 18" Wheel

    In that case, the tire being too wide for the 18” wheel is a different discussion all together. To OP’s question, it won’t hit the UCA. Tire manufacturers list max rim width, I’d start there if it’s a concern.

    So...what are you using the dash tray for?

    Wallet and my hat bill lays perfectly in it so it doesn’t slide across the dash on the move

    305/65r18 on Rebel 18" Wheel

    I’ve seen so many trucks running 35x12.50 and 33x12.50 tires on stock wheels with no spacers. It’s close but the tire will not rub on the UCA, and that measurement won’t change at any point while driving either.

    Anyone hearing “pinging” on WOT?

    Hahahaha! Yes! I get yelled at all the time

    Remote Start

    Well damn. One honk? Yeah that sounds like something the dealer should look at

    Remote Start

    You have a diesel though. Diesels are known to throw fits in the cold when starting because they have to warm up the glow plugs. At -8C (17F) It would probably take longer to warm up the glow plugs than what the standard remote start time allows. Might be something to consider.
