    +1 on the cap. I don't know anything about the E-Torque trucks but a cap is cheap insurance.

    BDS Suspension - Hard Lessons Learned

    If you aren't privy to the original post, start here: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/bds-ball-joint-gives-way-what-a-mess.27283/ Most of us BDS owners opted for the "higher end" products and were drawn in by the "NO FINE PRINT WARRANTY"... I'm not a cheap guy and did plenty of...

    FishOn's PNW Adventure Build - 2019 Big Horn

    Holy ice storm... Popped off the 3/4" exoskeleton of ice and went for a cruise around town. Looks like a freaking tornado touched down.

    Is front lower control arm ball joint replaceable.

    After an "incident" with my UCAs, I had to replace both the upper and lower BJs and the only option I could find for the lower was the complete lower CA with the BJ from Mopar (without going aftermarket). I've was told by my shop that the factory lower BJs cannot be replaced.

    BDS ball joint gives way... What a mess.

    There were no indicators on my truck, and it sounds like there was nothing to RamRob91 either. All good, and BAM... With the Fox/BDS reputation, I have to believe this is a crappy batch of BJs or something. Their engineers are reviewing the pics/info I sent them regarding both of these failures.

    The BDS UCA PN is 122251. Here's a pic/PN of the Moog BJ also.

    BDS ball joint gives way... What a mess.

    I'm still willing to give BDS the benefit of doubt... They've been very responsive and seem concerned about the failure, so we'll see what shakes out. In my opinion, these are still fairly isolated incidents. We know that there are a TON of BDS kits on the road today and there's supposedly a bad...

    BDS replied within 2 hours of my email... Pretty good start for customer service. As for replacing the BJ with something stronger... Good luck finding something more resilient than a Moog.

    BDS ball joint gives way... What a mess.

    The fine print in their "no fine print warranty" says they will cover their failed product but nothing else. Had to spend another $1800 to have the LCA, brake lines, CV axle, tie rods/etc replaced. BDS was more than willing to send out a replacement BJ, all $122 of the $1800, but I was on the...

    Amber lights in grille

    The 3/4" LEDs from Amazon push right in and don't move. Like the ones @2019GRamRebel used. The 3 across the top are pre-installed in the Raptor/Rebel aftermarket grill i got ebay for $200. I added a couple "pop ins"... Gotta be different, ya know?
