    Rear lift spring question

    I’d look at a small spacer, 1/2”-3/4”, for the rear before spring replacement.

    Too much for a half ton truck?

    Way too much for that truck. Would suggest dropping pano roof, ram box and split tailgate. That might get you into the 1300lb range and allow two passengers in addition to the trailer tongue weight, but nothing else. Lighter trailer AND less optioned truck is in order to stay legal.

    Not acceptable. Can still see the distortion/dent in the sheet metal. They did do a decent job painting, but by the looks of the “fix” (or hack) a true fix would probably require a new tailgate skin. Let the negotiations ensue.

    RAM Payload Definition in Regards to Towing

    Pano and ram box take off almost 100lbs each. The list of options s on your list for a Laramie or limited would put payload below 1300lbs, and as low as 970 on a full load limited. Best thing for you to do would be find a truck that is close and run the vin to show what the real world numbers are.

    Looks like it was opened onto a trailer jack and people getting in and out of the truck or trailer caused some wiggle over time. That’ll probably be a whole tailgate repainting due to the depth and breadth of that scratch and dent.

    Why is the Ecodiesel heavier than the Hemi?

    The compacted graphite iron block for the Rcodoesel is heavier per cylinder than the aluminum Hemi block. Add the selective catalytic reduction equipment, the def tank and the the other emissions stuff and the ED is almost 200 lbs heavier than the Hemi.

    News on a tune?

    From what I’ve seen on 2nd gen EDs and the few reports on 3rd gen it will be a huge improvement. The pedal tuners just give it a little more.

    2021 ram delivery date

    My window sticker was May 21 and didn’t get an ETA until it was on the train for a week and it was a 2 week window of June 2 to 16. Truck has been 1 province away now for three days stuck in Saskatchewan at a switch yard. About a days pull away.

    Official thread for pictures of Ram towing campers

    How does it tow? Setup looks a little nose high and may cause more sway than level or slightly nose down if you are having issues.

    I’m in Canada, and can’t get Ecodiesel up here in anything below a Rebel. Needed the diesel. Wish we had the options that the US does.

    Order Tracking

    Yep, has conditions that if satisfied (clean delivery and test drive) that all I do is walk away with the truck and keys when it comes in and I do my PDI.

    Wheel Spacers

    As long as the spacers are hub centric they should be ok. As for size, most get away with 1.5” with minimal or no trimming on the front and 1.75” on the rear to get the same track width front/rear and this puts most tread blocks even with the flares with bulging sidewalls extending beyond the...
