    License Plate Reverse light

    Sure, you can hope for that. But if I was the manufacturer that already developed a universal product that fits almost every vehicle with limited to no modification, I'm not going to eat the additional R&D cost to re-design the product to fit one specific application more perfectly. I'm...

    License Plate Reverse light

    I don't really understand this statement. VLED offers a universal reverse light not designed for any specific vehicle application. Any product designed as a generic or universal modification is expected to possibly need some adjustment to fit your exact application. You can't expect...

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    Has anyone with the HK system replaced the stock 3.5" speakers in the front doors? I found that the Infinity 3032s were about a 1/2" too deep to fit where the stock speakers were. Judging by the depressions in the foam made by the door panel on the stock 3.5"s, it looked like spacing the...

    2020 Window Sticker (Laramie Longhorn) That I Tripped Across

    Lockers are pretty hard on IFS setups, compared to the solid axles on the Powerwagons and Rubicons, at least to the point where FCA wouldn't want to deal with trying to warranty it. I'd imagine thats why they don't offer one on the Rebel, but a front limited slip option would be a nice option...

    Rear shocks ??

    It should be the base model wheel size (18"), no matter what size wheel option you have. That's standard practice for any automaker really. I'm just not sure what size spare tire they put on every truck since I know as part of the Off Road Group package they mention "full size spare tire" as...

    Rear shocks ??

    If you have a full-size spare, you can always swap that with the wheel you think may be bent and see if that is for sure the problem.

    Rear shocks ??

    If you're having vibration issues, I would look at your rotating various assemblies - wheel/tire balance, brake rotors, or driveshaft before considering the shocks as the culprit.

    Reverse lights

    It actually takes minimal effort to make it fit without rubbing, and still look flawless. See my post below: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/license-plate-reverse-light.4787/post-168978

    Max speed limit from factory 105mph?

    The speed governor is set that low to keep the driveshaft from coming apart. These long alum. 1pc driveshafts cannot handle being spun very fast, and will reach their critical speeds over 100+mph (especially if the truck has 3.92 gears).

    Mini muffler add on for travel?

    I doubt those things would make any noticeable difference. On my last truck ('13 GMC Sierra 6.2L), I had a set of long tubes w/ catted Y pipe bolted to the factory 3.5" cat-back. While I loved the sound, there were times I wanted a more aggressive exhaust sound, so I had a muffler shop weld...

    Multifunction Tailgate unorderable??

    I'd almost guarantee its due to the length of the bed being too long, as timtlu said. If the short bed needed braces to help prevent the bedside from twisting due to axial force being put on it by leverage of the DFT, the standard length bed would need an enormous brace added to prevent the same.

    License Plate Reverse light

    Theres a couple feniex 200s in the rear window, and some lights in the front grill. I'll try to get a video of the setup later.

    License Plate Reverse light

    I didn't think it was that hard to modify things to relocate the light so that there was plenty of clearance. I just bent the bottom 1/4" of my plate over on itself to give it a smooth edge, and drilled two new holes a little lower. The original holes the dealer drilled through the plastic...

    TAZER DT for 2019 RAM 1500

    I haven't seen it mentioned previously, but by unplugging the security module and installing the Tazer module in its place, is there anything lost by doing this (i.e. security system functionality, etc.)?

    side mirror removal to replace mirror cap

    I successfully swapped my chrome caps for body color today using the above suction cup tool. Also used my heat gun on low for about 5 min. to warm things up beforehand even though it was about 70F. It does take an absurd amount of force to pop the mirrors off!
