    Shifter knob issues, 2019 RAM 1500, help- BRAND NEW

    Dropped mine t the dealer today and picked up a loaner car. I do not want to put off a needed visit. Something like this could definitely hurt someone or cause an accident.

    I wanted the coveted #100 post but.....2WD Rebels??

    I know. Sounds crazy, but several years ago, I was looking for a nice lifted used crew cab truck. I found one online that was beautiful and VERY reasonably priced. I called and talked to the owner of quite some time before I asked about the 4wd. I was advised it was only 2wd. The truck was...

    I drove it home today!

    Very nice. Those wheels look great on your truck.

    Another Option For Modifying the Fender for LArger Tires

    I was reading 19BlkRam's instructions for modifying the fenders to assist fitting larger tires. It is a great write up and got me thinking. In his post, 19BlkRam cut the small metal support at the lower rear of the fender where the plastic button goes through the plastic mud flap and holds it...

    New wheels arrived today

    Sweet. I like many of the black wheels, but I really like something with more of a natural metal/aluminum look. They match your truck color well.

    White Bighorn Off Road Group

    Thanks for the kind words. You are right. The white Ram 1500 looks too nice to look like a fleet vehicle. I really like the way mine looks now, and the Method wheels are clear coat finish. Now I am trying to decide if I put the stockers back on for winter.

    Lifetime Warranty?

    Thanks for the heads up. I just spoke to Clay at Clay Robbins and it is $2590 for the $200 deductible and $2950 for the $100 deductible. He advised today is the last day for the lifetime. I purchased the $200 deductible. Just under the wire.....whew.

    Regretting tire purchase

    OK. Got it, and I understand. I love custom wheels. My issue is there are way too many choices, and once I chose one, I began to wonder if I should have picked a different one. Will they let you return the wheels with a small restocking fee, especially if they have not mounted tires on the...

    Regretting tire purchase

    Are you regretting the purchase of wheels and tires, or just the Ridge Grapplers? I just put new wheels and Ridge Grapplers on mine today, and could not be happier. The RG's are nearly as quiet as the Falken AT's that came on the truck, and they actually feel a little smoother. I went with...

    Shifter knob issues, 2019 RAM 1500, help- BRAND NEW

    Well, my truck is just under 500 miles, and mine did it twice today. I put it in drive and nothing. At first I thought maybe I was on a slight incline so I gave it a little gas. Both times the transmission popped into gear suddenly. It did not feel good on the transmission. I will be...

    White Bighorn Off Road Group

    Have you decided what kit you are going to use, and what wheels and tires combo? When I first ordered the white, I started having second thoughts. I ordered on Friday, and called the dealer Monday about changing colors. He said the truck had already been assigned a VIN, so white was going to...

    White Bighorn Off Road Group

    I just arrived home from the tire shop. It needs a good wash, but here is a look with the new wheels and tires. 18x9 -12 Method Double Standard natural finish with 35-12.50-18 Nitto Ridge Grappler tires. The tires ride nice and seems fairly quiet. I think they actually ride a little smoother...

    White Bighorn Off Road Group

    I got my Motofab 2.5 inch lift and Readylift upper control arms on this past weekend. The first side took twice as long as the second due to the learning curve. I had the front end aligned and they said it was in the range it needed to be, but said it was adjusted all it could be. The height...

    SEMA - Mopar Ram Rebel Concept Unfiltered Sneak Peek

    I like the hood. The functional scoop is nice, but subtle. I think I like the sport hood better. As for the sport bar and lights, it reminds me of the cheesy chromed roll bars of the 80’s. The spare tire mount would be nice for a full size off road tire, but I would want it so it could be...

    3.5" readylift questions

    I have seen many dealers install the same lift and sell as a package truck. I guarantee they are going to warranty the truck if they installed the kit. I believe the dealers have a great deal of say on what is covered and what is not.

    Fabtech 6” finally installed!

    The truck looks perfect. I like the bigger lift, but my wife......... not so much. Those tires almost look like 37’s by the photos.

    Silver Big Horn Sport on 35’s

    Did you have to massage your front fender liners to clear your tires? I went with 35-12.50 -18 Ridge Grapplers and get them mounted Thursday. I have the same size and brand of wheels as yours. Just wondering if I should massage the front fender liners before I go have my tires mounted. I...

    18” Method NVs... tight fit but they clear

    I went with the 18 inch methods in 18x9 -12 also. For off road I much prefer the larger sidewall for more flex and rim protection. Generally, for off roading, it is recommended that rim diameter be approximately 1/2 of the diameter of oversized tires, or as close as possible. I guess I am also...

    Motofab 2.5” leveling kit installed

    My son said he thought we should reverse the sides. I did try a spring compessor but ended up taking them back off. I ended up using my pickle fork to pry against the bottom of the strut and twist at the same time. It did feel great to get my first modification done. Thanks for all of your...
