    Reversed Polarity Door Speakers

    71-050 "retains" the stock polarity (- to +). 72-6514 "switches" polarity back to + to +. However, you can repin either to be the opposite.

    Do 33”x 305(12.50”) R20 fit on stock 1500 no air ride?!

    With a leveling kit you pretty much guarantee fitment of 33"s on the new body style, and open the door to even getting up to 34"+, even some 35"s.

    Do 33”x 305(12.50”) R20 fit on stock 1500 no air ride?!

    Depends on which tire, wheel offset, etc. There are a ton of posts on this with examples. Every tire is different, and many 33"s are actually 32.5", and some are tall and knobby, etc. Are you putting on stock wheels? What tires are you considering? Are you willing to do a little bit of...

    2019 RAM Rebel Lift Kit

    Today I climbed under a Rebel - in the wet no less - and got a rough measurement. The Rebel's spring perch is the same location as a non-ORP and ORP spring perch (8.25" from bottom bolt-center to lowest point on spring perch [the coil stop]) [I have ORP and non-ORP shock units in my garage right...

    2" level, 35x12.50 tires rub

    I still don't believe this. I'm going to post on another thread, but today I climbed under a Rebel - in the wet no less - and got a rough measurement. The Rebel's spring perch is the same location as a non-ORP and ORP spring perch (8.25" from bottom bolt-center to lowest point on spring perch...

    Strut wear after Motofab 2.5" level on ORP.

    Cool. Yeah, the Daystar is a 2" lift, regardless of what some things say - they've corrected it in some of their documentation but not all - even the box says 2.5" on the sticker, but the instructions say the correct 2". I just got done putting the rear 1" coil spacer on, and tomorrow the front...

    Change from P275 55r20 to either P275 60r20 or go to 18 inch wheels w/P275 65r18

    Well, I know you don't have the off-road package since you have the Bridgestones. And I feel that the Bridgestones are actually a pretty "squishy" tire. So I'm very surprised that you aren't enamored by the ride quality of the truck - of the ones I drove, the 20" equipped non-off road trucks...

    Nitto Terra Grappler G2 Tire 35X12.5R22 Plus Level = horrible ride?

    Tons of people on here have 22s with Terra or even Ridge Grapplers (or other E-load/LT rated tires) - most have ever commented that the ride maybe got a little stiffer and I'd say most are happy with them (many even comment "rides the same"). I don't think you're going to get "a lot" smoother...

    2019 RAM Rebel Lift Kit

    Whoaaaaa...That spring there is the same spring from the ORP group --- which the spring is what causes the 1" lift in the ORP. That tells me that the 1" lift from the rebel is also caused by the spring (and not a higher spring perch), which then tells me that the mopar lift would lift the rebel...

    ORP owners, picture help?

    Yeah, what the heck...it's like it's you're treating it like a truck or something. Oh, wait...

    Finally decided on my mild lift plan

    Ha...and as is typical for me (sometimes I plan tooooo far ahead), and after having driven the truck now for a while, I've decided that I don't want to change the ride at all, and I don't want to add the additional dampening of the ORP stuff. I'm probably just going to do spacers to get the...

    2019 RAM Rebel Lift Kit

    And this is the correct info based on what I've seen. Big horns are usually around 22", and Laramies (and on) are usually around 21.5". That's your "non lifted" height basically. So if the rebel's at 22.5" it's got 1" already, so 3.5" would push it to 4.5" over "normal".

    ORP owners, picture help?

    Can someone take a pic of their ORP equipped truck's front shock/spring at the exact position of the pic I have attached below (with the spring-stop facing the camera and the top-edge of the spring perch visible just above the spring)?? Huge help for me.

    3.5 lift not a good idea

    Generally a top-hat spacer will not change the ride at all (because it doesn't pre-compress the spring), as long as it doesn't lift you too high. Personally, you might think about a 2" front 1" rear and you probably will guarantee a good ride. I'd make sure to retain the aftermarket control arms.

    3.5 lift not a good idea

    https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/4%C3%974-off-road-package.949/page-4#post-953 You can find fresh take-offs on ebay - look for shram auto parts. However, it might be the fact that you're at 4.5" over "stock" (3.5" lift plus 1" factory) and that's pretty much viewed as too much lift...

    2019 RAM Rebel Lift Kit

    Hmm.."our guys measure them on dealer lots" - No offense, but from my experience, you have to make DAM SURE that the truck is perfectly level or both sides can be off by .5" or more, AND ALSO, and I pointed this out to them when I talked to them (and the guy was like "Oh, good point, I'll tell...

    Add 1” to Mopar 2” Lift

    And if you remove the bump stops and Track Bar Relocation Bracket, keep them, I might be interested in them $$$, lol!

    Nitto Terra Grappler G2 Tire 35X12.5R22 Plus Level = horrible ride?

    2" or 2.5" top-hat spacer (NOT pre-load like you previously had). 2" Motofab or 2" Daystar.

    Alpine 10sp - ongoing results from testing ANC, speaker polarities, wiring harnesses...

    I just confirmed that the grey/yellow wire at the amp does indeed map to the grey/yellow wire at the speaker. So for some reason, at least with my amp, the grey/yellow wire is carrying the positive instead of negative.
