    Just be glad you don't have eTorque motor in the way! That bracket is a SOB!! Goes right over the back two coil packs on the driver side, plus the brake booster is there too!

    What did I break?

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Oh and I also found out when your headlights are on and you activate the turn signal, the damn fog light on that side comes on to help illuminate the corner! I like it.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Found out 5th gens have active air dams today. So cool. I didn't realize that when I bought it. I'm an engineer so I like stuff like that. Mix that in with the active grille shutters and I'm geeked out. The grille shutters are nice for more than just aerodynamics too, quicker warm ups to improve...

    Coin holder - useful or stupid?

    Cash, yes. Coins, no.

    Just pull the coin holder out? That's what I did.

    Thank You! You Helped Save Me Considerable $$$.

    What i don’t like about that is that you are constantly charging, and can overcharge the battery if the solar panel output is not regulated. This can be just as bad as draining the battery. One dealership around here has them in the windows of most their vehicles. You can buy the solar panels...

    Ram releases 2019 Ram 1500 payload and towing charts

    Yes, Limiteds are quite limited on payload due to all the extra creature comforts. Considering two people will take up around 350# on the lighter side, you’re down to 900# for tongue weight and other supplies. That’s not the end of the world. Tongue weight, even at 15% of trailer weight will...

    New poor edition

    I'm still trying to figure out what a poor edition is

    Ram releases 2019 Ram 1500 payload and towing charts

    All of this info is on the two stickers in the driver side door jamb. In fact, it's the only accurate information for your vehicle. These online towing specs are generic and don't account for your specific vehicle trim/options/accessories.

    Rear backup camera touchscreen button

    Are you trying to press the backup camera button while the backup camera is active (like what you show in your picture)? If so, it shouldn't do anything since you're already looking at the backup camera.

    Changing speedo for new tires after lift 23 bighorn

    Tires are not exactly the size they say. 35s end up being 34.5 or 35.1, etc. Before mounting a tire, wrap a string around the tire, mark where it overlaps. Lay it out straight, measure the length. You now have circumference. Just keep in mind the amount of tension you pull on the string should...

    Conspiracies - theory or fact?

    I saw the Alex Jones video the other day about the new variant timeline and damn… seems like it’s going to happen. Just got word from an employer that they’re likely to implement mask mandates again within a month if the numbers continue to increase. What I don’t get is that the numbers are...
