    Backcountry payload

    Well my '22 Big Horn which essentiallyhas all the same options in the Back Country package (offroad pkg, ramboxes etc) came from the factory with a 1320lb payload rating. Mind you mine is a Crew Cab.. so maybe a bit heavier than a Quad Cab so I would guess yours will have a higher payload than...

    Best Dash Cam

    I'm new to dashcam tech...would an interior IR camera like the one in your Viofo also turn on and record in Parking Mode if an exterior Motion/Impact is detected? Just wondering if it would capture interior video of someone breaking into a parked car.

    Best Dash Cam

    Hi Jefferyrw...Sorry I know you posted the above advice almost a year ago...but have a question for you as I am thinking about how you used fish tape to run the rear camera wire ....is it possible to do this without removing the 3rd brake light? Could you somehow get inside the headliner from...

    Best Dash Cam

    I know where I live drivers are brutal and unfortunately often will hit a car in a parking lot then just take off. It has not happened to me (knock on wood) but I am very careful about where I park and will walk 500 feet if I have to just to avoid other cars. But...if someone rams your car and...

    Using Bed Extender?

    So I bought a set of bed extension grommets/handles and installed them on both sides at the tail end of the bed so I could use my Rambox bed divider as a bed extender with the tailgate down. These are what I put on: ALTBET Box Handle and Grommet Kit Fit for Dodge RAM 1500 2500 3500 Replace...

    Are there no bed covers made for a 2022 1500 Limited with ramboxes and mft?

    Hopefully once you get new rails and your Gatortrax on you'll love it so much you'll forget about the ordeal :)

    The Beast arrived today...

    Hmm....good point/question. I can tell you that the black Retrax rails go over the Silver rails and then with the Retrax cover on top I get no water coming in on the sides at all...or at the front of the cab (and after installing the ESI Ultimate Tailgate Seal Kit for RAM 1500 with Ramboxes), I...

    The Beast arrived today...

    It will be interesting to see what they say. Since you already bought the cover...and it is a very very nice cover, and as frustrating as it is, I would swap the rails out...pasted the link in previous post...$273. You will love the Retrax...

    The Beast arrived today...

    Wow ...yeah it doesn't make sense to me either why you don't have the option to delete the soft cover on a high-end Limited trim... I believe these are the rails you will need: https://www.moparonlineparts.com/sku/dtrailkit.html
