I have a 2010 4Runner. All 4 wheels started deteriorating about 30 minutes after I bought it. I let it go and had them restored in 2016 (in Fairfax, Virginia). They cost $150 each with rebalancing. The specialist used a lathe which he programmed for the correct contour (not Bondo) and then...

I have searched in my clearest voice for "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, DC" and "District of Columbia" and "Washington, District of Columbia", and "White House, Washington, DC", blah blah. The feature has always returned no result, with this location or any other. It's also useless if I...

Sorry, but I can find no ACTUAL FCA LITERATURE reference to the true ride heights in the referenced thread or in the 10 pages of @Edwards' postings. My Longhorn with air and ORP indeed states in the build sheet that it has the 1" Raised Ride Height, which tells me zero. Two adjectives and a noun...

If as you state, ORG Normal = Non-ORG Off Road 1, then my figures above would indicate that ORG trucks could ride .2" higher at the maximum and not a whopping .35". It would also mean the entry position for ORG trucks is .65" higher. I'd appreciate your providing the citation for where FCA makes...

I know this has been discussed in various threads (including one I posted). Here is yet another contribution to the discussion: It seems ironic that the air suspension implementation for the Rebel and Off Road Group-equipped trucks is less capable than that for the other models. Looking at my...

I fixed my error. Thanks.

(Sorry but I said "Quad" cab rather than "Crew" cab when I posted this. I'm fixing that mistake in this text. Hope I can fix the heading too. Thanks for the correxion.) I do little mods that do not affect the truck in any way. Previously I have posted my RamBox Inserts design, my...

When I ordered my truck in May 2018, the Bed Utility Group was to include the bed step on the driver's side. Even though there is nothing complicated about this device, it was removed from the description and the price of the BUG silently dropped, with no explanation, much like the bed extender...

Thank you, Mr. Hankbot for the Warranty Operations Letter in your 1/13/2019 post, in which FCA sort of explains away their position on the bed extender fiasco. Because communication is FCA's weak point I would like to see others beat this dead horse until some ACTUAL details emerge. On the face...

I had the steering ground recall and the brake pedal recall performed on Feb. 21, 2019. According to my dashcam the truck was in the shop for 16 minutes. When I scheduled the appointment I was told the labor would take 2-3 hours. I took a taxi home as I live outside their shuttle range, and the...

SUPER-SKEPTICAL. Ram doesn't have a track record of being able to pull off tailgate design. Remember the unequal length cable fiasco? Remember the bed extender fiasco? Remember the deployable bed step fiasco? These three issues are low-tech problems that an intern engineer could have corrected...

I assembled these 4 rails to provide support for a cover to keep snow out of the bed. They may come in handy for carrying things too. Directions below. The only tools needed are a socket wrench and a vise. This project can be done for $83.92 rather than the $93.57 I paid. I purchased 2 sets...

It worked for me in Virginia October 25, 2018. I cannot imagine how a sales person isn't aware of it. I'd avoid someone that ill-advised. My vehicle was a 2000 F150. I presented the registration.

EVEN MORE NOTES ABOUT BED DIMENSIONS WITH RAMBOX: Ram published a width for the 2018 bed of 48.1" and then repeated this in their brochures for the 2019. I don't know if it was true in 2018 and somebody just got lazy and didn't actually measure what width load could actually be carried in 2019...

SOME MATH: The final reduction for the 3.92 in 8th is 2.6532. The final reduction for the 3.21 in 7th is 2.6964. The difference is .0432 or 1.62% - essentially a wash. My approach is that if you do only occasional towing with a heavy load, and don't have plans to increase tire diameter, or have...

They are different designs. Look at widely available 4th gen sets on ebay (search "Mopar 82213570") and compare with my patterns at https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/rambox-insert-patterns-instructions-photos-download-here.4250/

Let me rephrase my question about availability of the parts needed to restore functionality to the Bed Extender. I have no interest in involving my dealer. I'd like to know if an owner has succeeded in purchasing the parts, where they were found, what they cost and whether the thing acutally...

As ever, I am curious if anyone has ACTUALLY added these posts to a 5th Gen truck, and the cost.

I'm a retired programmer. Being retired gives me the time to do tedious work Thanks for the encouragement.

I had posted a while back (https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/rear-dashcam-dash-cam-installation-l-also-rambox-inserts-revised-improved.3468/#post-52161) that I was working on the horizontal inserts for the Ramboxes (67" bed). That thread is so old that I decided to start a new one now...
