You would have to fabricate spring loaded locking tabs to make that work in the ram. Everything is solid and the motion of the bottom seat lifting pushes on the top part of the seat until the tabs can unlock. There is no “latch” just hard mount points and sliders. The other suggestion would be...

The nice thing about the remote oil filter is it makes it easy if you want to change the filter mid oil cycle. I have a neighbor who swears by that method. He runs amsoil, 6k intervals and changes the filter at 3k with a top off. All his cars have 200k+ miles and still run great. Id rather have...

Here is a side view of my setup. Westin pro mod bumper and skid plate. The pacbrake mounts the filter inside and above the frame rails, even using the larger filter. So its not really visable from the side other than a couple fittings, even with an off road style bumper.

Do you have any pics under your truck front bumper?

Im pretty sure 99% of people here are not cutting mounts off the frame. The pacbrake kit is the obvious turnkey solution.

@bigdodge I installed my kit with the hoses routed so they don’t hit the frame or interfere with any other parts. I have no noticeable noise or vibrations after the install.

There are hydraulic shops all around me that will make the lines while you wait. I have them made frequently for yacht autopilot installs. I agree they are easy to work with and the right way to do custom work by far. The cost of the pacbrake kit (besides the shiny cnc stuff) is you are paying...

Also if you are going full custom you would need custom length lines to fit where you decide to locate the filter. At that point you may as well piece it together as the cost of the pacbrake wont make sense if you still need custom lines made. For me and my setup I was looking for a nice turn...

I guess if your willing to cut pieces off your frame to fit a bumper you can figure it out. Im also sure you could piece together a kit that works and is marginally cheaper but I personally don’t have the time to research the parts necessary, where to source The parts, time to acquire/ship them...

None at all. Not sure where or how vibration would transmit to the body or frame with this kit since the hoses isolate it completely.

It would work fine if you get creative with the mounting. 😀

I ditched the active air dam long ago for the westin pro mod bumper, which the skid plate uses the same holes as the active air dam bolted to the front of the frame post, and the pacbrake mounts to unused holes in the rear of the same frame post. Kit should be active air dam approved as far as I...

Also for the record holds an extra 3/4 quart oil with the kit and larger old school ram filter.

Well got the kit installed today! Install went good, 3 hours start to finish with changing the oil included. This was done in my garage on ramps not even a lift. Not as much as a drop of oil leaking anywhere. Used loctite 545 on all the fittings, as I only wanted to do this once. Ive started...

Little by little.

I’ve decided im in for the long haul with my ram and sick of the PITA oil changes. Grabbed the pacbrake kit so I can run more oil, bigger filters, and easier changes. Will post after installing.

Huge difference, no change in ride quality, changes for the better in turn handling.

Installed new hellwig upgraded swaybar. Step 1 of a total suspension revamp coming soon 😁

I just followed the steps in the included quick start manual included with the unit. They also have the manual online if you don’t have one. These autels are pretty simple to use, basically plug in your year/make/model and follow the prompts on what you are trying to do. Make sure the unit is...

Oem sensors will always work even with different IDs because the IDs are within the range of what the ecu will read. The autel can also generate random IDs that oems would use and that works too. From my research I conclude the ecu looks for a specific string of letter and numbers, For example...
