    2019 RAM 1500 hellwig swaybar

    Installed my Hellwig over the weekend. Today got up to a left turn light turning yellow and normally would have stopped, but decided to take the turn. OMG!!! You'd never know I was driving a crew cab 6'4" bed 1500 because I kid you not, it felt just like I was taking the turn in my Dodge...

    Bad fuel mileage 5.7 hemi

    Wife hates me for that, but I always say I will drive a few minutes further to avoid traffic and lights, and while the perception may be that it takes longer, the reality ends up being that it takes about the same amount of time.

    Bad fuel mileage 5.7 hemi

    I hear you brother. I'm about 80% city with a 15 minute radius for all my local driving needs for commuting and shopping. There are stop lights everywhere and I rarely get above 45 or 50 mph. It's only that 20% when I hit the limited access roads where I can get above 55mph. As you can see...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    It's all a numbers game at the end of the day. If they waived it, it's just because they didn't give you as much off of the dealer discount. The only true way of knowing what kind of deal you got is your final price before taxes and tags. Everything else is negotiable.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I like his cart as well. I've gone looking for one, and came across this at Costco online. This could work well both for all the auto detailing products as well as for tools, etc. https://www.costco.com/Luxor-3-Shelf-All-Purpose-Shop-Cart.product.100294400.html

    Black Badging - How to ?

    I don't have the off road package, but I tried a black 4x4 decal on my Maximum Steel and you could barely see it. On a black truck, it would be invisible. However, on most other colors, I assume it would look good. I'm currently searching for a new set of decals to put on the side of my...

    Remove White Lettering on Tires

    I don't think you can remove the white raised lettering on the Bridgestone Duelers can you? I'm not really a fan of the White lettering. But I really don't want to go out and buy a new set of tires just because of that. Any suggestions for blacking them out? Sharpie? Paint? Anything that...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I'm in the process of plasti-dipping mine today. First two tires were a disaster and I had to remove the dip. 2nd set is looking much better (after watching another half dozen videos!!). So tomorrow I'll retry the other two. Now I have to decide if I want to put a coat or two of glossifier...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Are those stock wheels? The look like the 22's, but online they show them with some chrome on them. Did you paint them? Or did you upgrade them? Me like!!

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    So what happens when you install a Hellwig Sway Bar and a Pedal Commander back to back and take your Ram for a test drive? What are the words that come to mind? Maybe it's .......... Holy F#&*!!!! It's everything that everyone has said that the Hellwig and Pedal Commander would be, and...

    NO TEXT NOTIFICATION

    I'm also pretty sure that if you are part of group messages, those will not display through UConnect. Mine don't. Only individual texts from a single person, which kind of sucks since more than 50% of my messaging is through groups. Welcome to in-car infotainment that's a decade behind the...

    2019 RAM 1500 hellwig swaybar

    Question on Hellwig Swaybar Install. Did anyone use the supplied bolts for the D-Bars? I noticed that they aren't normal socket bolts, but look more look like allen wrench style bolts. I don't have anything that large that would be able to provide enough torque. is there any issue with just...

    I Gotta be careful on this forum!

    My biggest regret is that I didn't spend as much time researching the issues on this forum as I did the price negotiated from MSRP when shopping for my truck back in June. While I scored an awesome 30% discount, I wound up with a truck that suffers from the shimmy, shimmy shakes over 50 mph...

    Anyone else feel like their transmission is very laggy and unresponsive?

    I think we can all agree that you can tune a transmission, you can tune a piano, but you can't tune a fish........

    Looking for Thoughts/Experiences - 2019 Canadian Truck (US Buyer)

    So is this a U.S. Carmax dealer that has a Canadian model truck on its lot? What would the rough MSRP of this truck be in US Dollars new? Then take 25% off that. If it's anywhere close or lower, then buy new with the warranty. Carmax will not haggle. Over time, if it sits on their lots...

    Better Replacement for Stock Air Filter

    You guys have made me spend too much money already on this truck, so I'm currently short on funds to put in a new CAI at the moment (ok try to sell me on doing it!!!). But let's say for the sake of argument I just want to replace the stock air filter with something better, will I get any...
