    Tow hook Shackle Swap

    I'm planning on getting the tow hooks and picking up a soft shackle. Loop shackle onto hook and through strap, problem solved.

    To buy or not to buy?

    You say you're looking at a limited. Beware the low payload of the limited with all the bells and whistles. Look at the numbers vs what you really plan to use it for.

    Best all terrain tire for every day driving.

    Hankook Dynapro ATM, the new dynapro AT2 is a little less agressive and even better on the highway.

    MDS on 2020 Laramie

    It's "on" all the time and will activate given the right driving conditions unless you set your gear limiter to 8 using the paddle on the steering wheel to deactivate. You can go in the settings and turn on the ECO light which will tell you when MDS is active. See the video posted above to find...

    POOR MAN’S REBEL: 2019 TRADESMAN BUILD PROJECT

    Very nice. Sounds like you've got a great plan. I have no doubt you'll exceed the rebel's capability since some of that difference in price is going to be luxuries and options you won't end up buying. Im talking heated seats, dual zone AC, upgraded display. But all the better if you dont need...

    Best A/T or Hybrid Tire for Highway and Wet Conditions

    FYI the off road package comes with Falken Wildpeak AT3W A which is different than the AT3W. Its a less aggressive made for RAM version.

    Hypertech 3400 Speedometer Calibrator (Review and Final thoughts)

    Hmmm that throws a bit of a wrench in my plan to go up to that size. I wonder if a 285/60R20 would fit stock (33.5"). And no i dont want to install a hypertech or RC to adjust it.

    Hypertech 3400 Speedometer Calibrator (Review and Final thoughts)

    My stock tires are 32". Id like to go to a 275/60R20 which is 33" so this is an issue for me. Are they saying they have an issue because the actual physical measured tire height is less than 32.5"? If i remember right the Star case had them measure the true tire height instead of using the...

    Chips in chrome bumpers rusting

    My dad's got chrome bumpers on his 2019 Laramie. There's one decent scratch/dent on the front and a few small rock chips on the rear behind the wheels, all rusting. Seems relatively fast for a relatively new truck. Anyone else have this issue?

    Sport package tires in snow (Nexen Roadian HTX)

    I've got the sport package with Nexen Roadian HTX. I plan on running them until I need to replace them with an A/T. I like the ride and gas mileage, but has anyone used them in the snow? I live in WI, but as long as they're OK I'll just deal with it. Don't offroad and really just want A/Ts after...

    The 2021 Ram 1500 TRX Sucks Down The Fossil Fuels!

    Does it have MDS? Maybe with the supercharger you could go down to just 2 cylinders to cruise on the highway!

    2019 Limited with 275/55R20 recomendations please

    Thanks, I read up on some other threads too. Insane the dealer cant do this. They sell a Mopar 2" lift, are you supposed to keep the same tires??? Not worth the additional size to me, guess I'll stick with the 275/55R20.

    2019 Limited with 275/55R20 recomendations please

    I will probably go with 275/60R20 at some point in the future. What exactly needs to be done to recalibrate the speedometer?

    Anyone jnow why they switched from tow hooks to loops?

    Sounds right to me, I wouldn't loop it because you might end up needing to cut it off. Ive got to get myself the tow loops first then get a shackle.

    Anyone jnow why they switched from tow hooks to loops?

    If you use a strap with a metal hook on the end for recovery and it comes loose or breaks, the hook becomes a projectile launching straight at the other vehicle. Recovery straps should have loops at the end and attach to a shackle/D ring or open tow hook on the vehicle.

    Anyone jnow why they switched from tow hooks to loops?

    Yes you'll need a shackle. Ill state the obvious and say dont attach a strap with a hook to it. The loop has got to be stonger than a regular hook right? But if a hook worked for the previous gen then im not sure.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    My fault. Carry on.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I guess I don't see a scenario in which the regular horn wouldn't do the same job. Normally I'd say if you like it then it's your money but this is one of a few things that can annoy or scare other people and maybe not even the ones cutting you off.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    What is the point of this? Just to scare people? I feel like if you just like the sound you'd have to drive like an ******* to use your horn enough to justify it. I drive in a medium sized city and use my horn like once every few months.
