    Removed air dam and now feel vibrations underneath floorboard

    You mentioned driving over leaves and such, could it be possible you have dirt in your wheels causing an out of balance condition? Sometimes us in the snowbelt have ice form in the rims causing a vibration on cold days until it melts off.

    Very dimly lit dash panel

    Maybe you guys have a bad light switch. Order another and change it to see if it's better. It it's like the older switches there is a spring and as you rotate the switch it clocks the spring in a different spot causing the voltage to change feeding the dash lights. Try NAPA for a cheap switch?

    Sleekster lightbar mount

    Cool switch. I like it. Lay the control under the front seat or tie it up under the dash. That would keep it water proof. Run wires directly off the battery (as I did) so you can't be charged with damaging the electronics of the new truck. Once your off warrantee then you can wire it off of the...

    Sleekster lightbar mount

    Only a negative about the light bar. If you have the parking sensors in the front bumper of your truck,, that could trigger alarms and you will be forced to turn them off. In my truck I don't have the bumper sensors. Funny thing, when I first got my truck my wife's Jeep has the parking sensors...

    Sleekster lightbar mount

    You have switches built into the overhead visor area. I wouldn't have a clue on wiring them up but if you have a wireless type transmitter then that would work. One of my switches are programmed for my garage door as I type this. I think there are 4 switches up there. So your wireless...

    Sleekster lightbar mount

    I pushed the wire thru the firewall near the steering wheel. That's easy to do. When I put the light in last fall I used the auxbeam switch and relay. The auxbeam light itself filled with water so I threw it away and bought the Rigid light. So the wiring is fine. It came with a 30A fuse. The...

    Sleekster lightbar mount

    The sleekster lightbar is on! Installation was fairly easy. Remove the tow hooks, place the plate installed on the frame then reattach the tow hooks. The lightbar fits on the mounting points for the tow hooks. Then you need to wiggle the parts to align the lightbar. One side was a little...

    2020 Big Horn - Not mean looking... help

    Just put Dielectric Grease for electrical connectors in the plug then forget about it. It should water proof it and keep it clean if you ever what to re-attach it.

    Let’s see those 5” exhaust tips

    There is a clamp, so lossen the nut and swing the tip where you want it. Loosen it more to remove it from the exhaust pipe.

    Sleekster lightbar mount

    my post never posted.... I believe I said the Rigid light would not fit behind the grill because it seems to thick.

    2021 Stock 20" Wheels; are they clear coated?

    I would assume they are clear coated. The white is corrosion, as aluminium turns chauky when it "rusts".

    Sleekster lightbar mount

    Thanks for the reply. Lately I'm having 2ND thoughts on my current position of my lightbar It's a license plate mount that is super strong, but I'm afraid some dummy backs into me at a parking lot destroying my $750 Rigid light. Perhaps mounting it higher would be a better place for it. So I...

    Sleekster lightbar mount

    I decided to relocate my lightbar to this mount. Does anyone have info on the installation on a 2021 1500 and if they recommend it? I ordered it thru American trucks and here is the link. https://www.americantrucks.com/randy-ellis-design-ram1500-sleekster-light-bar-satin-black-34151.html

    Best Trifold bed cover?

    That one looks defective. Mine is tight and looks professional. It folds in 3 towards the cab.
