    Fully electric Ram 1500 in 2024

    Actually, with the current North American power infrastructure, increasing the population of electric cars increases in greenhouse emissions. Regards, Dusty 2019 Ram 1500 Billet Silver Laramie Quad Cab 2WD, 5.7 Hemi, 8HP75, 3.21 axle, 33 gallon fuel tank, factory dual exhaust, 18” wheels. Build...

    The grass isn't always greener

    Three out of my four children have owned Nissan products, and I owned a '93 Sentra which was the most trouble free car I owned until my 2010 Ram 1500. But none of my family's Nissans were perfect, and one in particular was well populated with mechanical problems. But I don't think Nissan or any...

    2WD VS 4WD

    Looks like you are correct, although I'm a little surprised that the front shock valving would be the same for 2WD and 4WD considering the extra differential weight. I think this is a plus for Ram. I'm pretty sure F-series and Silverado use different components 2WD/4WD, unless they've changed...

    2WD VS 4WD

    This may not be inclusive to your Rebel, but there are enough differences between Ram 1500 2WD and 4WD front suspensions that it would likely affect components in a lift kit. Best regards, Dusty 2019 Ram 1500 Billet Silver Laramie Quad Cab 2WD, 5.7 Hemi, 8HP75, 3.21 axle, 33 gallon fuel tank...

    What is this intermittent booming noise coming from the back?

    Hello Vinnie, There are two tailgate latch pins, one on each side of the bed. In the enclosed photo please note the blue tape. That is the pin on the left side. The pin is adjustable by loosening with a T45 torx driver. Once the pin has been loosened, you can move pin inward or outward. Do not...

    What is this intermittent booming noise coming from the back?

    "Booming", "thud" noise solved on my '19 Quad Cab. This noise was infrequent, but noticeable when the rear suspension travelled over a pronounced bump that affected both rear wheels at roughly the same time. I happen to notice that the tailgate latch on the left side of the vehicle had...

    TSB #24-001-20 A/C Fix. Has anyone had it done yet? Plus are you happy with the results?

    To refresh everyone's memory, the service procedure for Ram DT AC performance (which is the check to see if it meets specification) is to "insert a thermometer in the driver side center panel air outlet and operate the A/C system until the thermometer temperature stabilizes." The other vent...

    harman kardon is nothing than a bag of trash

    I resemble that remark!! There is some music I raise the volume on just because I like it loud(er). In reality the Laramie is quiet enough that my Alpine system really doesn't need to be driven much at all. I really can't comment much on the HK system since I've only heard one a few times, but...

    Retractable Side Steps.

    What kind of pricing have people got from the dealer for the retractable side steps? What did the dealer quote you for installation? Best regards, Dusty 2019 Ram 1500 Billet Silver Laramie Quad Cab 2WD, 5.7 Hemi, 8HP75, 3.21 axle, 33 gallon fuel tank, factory dual exhaust, 18” wheels. Build...

    2500 Headliner popping/rattling

    I would recommend taking it back to the dealer's service department. Headliner issues can be intricate. Best regards, Dusty 2019 Ram 1500 Billet Silver Laramie Quad Cab 2WD, 5.7 Hemi, 8HP75, 3.21 axle, 33 gallon fuel tank, factory dual exhaust, 18” wheels. Build date: 03 June 2018. Now at...

    I think you need a new battery. Regards, Dusty 2019 Ram 1500 Billet Silver Laramie Quad Cab 2WD, 5.7 Hemi, 8HP75, 3.21 axle, 33 gallon fuel tank, factory dual exhaust, 18” wheels. Build date: 03 June 2018. Now at: 0530263 miles.

    Retractable Side Steps.

    Question: Is there a specific mounting location called out in the instructions for the CAN module?

    Truck dead

    By any chance can you get a VOM reading across the battery while someone cranks the engine? Best regards, Dusty 2019 Ram 1500 Billet Silver Laramie Quad Cab 2WD, 5.7 Hemi, 8HP75, 3.21 axle, 33 gallon fuel tank, factory dual exhaust, 18” wheels. Build date: 03 June 2018. Now at: 0530263 miles.

    Seat charges on builds

    Leather trimmed seating is standard on the Laramie according to the build process on the Ram website, regardless of Level 1 or 2.

    Exhaust Leak - 2020 1500 40K KM

    You're correct, the flange is threaded. However, in this application there is enough heating/cooling cycles and vibration to cause the bolt to move. I think that's why they originally specified nuts. Best regards, Dusty 2019 Ram 1500 Billet Silver Laramie Quad Cab 2WD, 5.7 Hemi, 8HP75, 3.21...

    Water under passenger floor board area

    Sorry for the late response (I missed your question). Yes, my Laramie came with the Level 1 LED light package and interior lighting. Best regards, Dusty 2019 Ram 1500 Billet Silver Laramie Quad Cab 2WD, 5.7 Hemi, 8HP75, 3.21 axle, 33 gallon fuel tank, factory dual exhaust, 18” wheels. Build...

    Exhaust Leak - 2020 1500 40K KM

    There have been a few of us that have had this problem. You will most likely break the bolts by trying to tighten them, so be prepared to have them drilled out. The parts list calls for special bolts and corresponding nuts in that application, but apparently the nuts were omitted for a time at...
