    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Attached is a side view ( I think this is what you are asking to see) I took a pic with only the rear lugs switched to black because I was running out of daylight and I also thought it might be good to see the comparison. Black lugs definitely look better IMO. I am also throwing in a couple of...

    Does driving up on a rock count as Off-Roading?

    I'm joking obviously because I know just driving up on a rock doesn't constitute as off-roading, but I thought I would share some pics of driving my truck up on a rock while on my weekend cabin trip. There was a cluster of rocks that if I had more offroad confidence, more clearance on the exit...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Thanks! looks like you are up near Cleveland, about 3 1/2 hours from me. Yea I torqued everything at 120 when I put on my spacers, so I will do the same when I swap out the lug bolts. Thanks for confirming the legitimacy of my plan :)

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I will grab a few more pics after I install the black lug nuts that I ordered. They are supposed to be delivered today. If anyone else is interested I ordered this - Gorilla Automotive 96644BDX Black Factory Style Wheel Lock System (14mm x 1.50 Thread Size, 24-Pack)...

    This happened to me too. Give it some time as mentioned above. I went back after a few hours and it was working normally.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Installed Bora spacers tonight. 1.5 FRT 2.0 Rear. It was dark by the time I got finished so while doing the post-install test drive, I stopped and took pics under some light for reference. I am posting quite a few pics, but I know people considering spacers might like to see lots of angles...

    Wheel spacers and tires so far.

    I just installed bora 1.5 frt and 2.0 rear tonight. No issue with the studs. I don't remember for sure but I don't even think the studs were sticking out much, if at all on the 1.5. I don't have the same wheels (stock 22's on limited) but I would not expect an issue with any stock wheel...

    How to remove back wall carpet (road noise coming from rear cab)?

    I believe I am missing that same rubber strip between the cab and the bed. While I was waiting for some exhaust work, I was looking at the TSB's on my phone and came across the one about the wind noise. I had the guy at the muffler shop look while he was under the truck and he said he didn't...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Thanks! It looks like they are out of stock in a few places I looked. I will dig deeper. I was also considering contacting the dealer to see what the OEM ones cost. thanks again for the input!

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Thanks! I plan to get over to the vinyl shop this week to experiment with some varying degrees of very lightly tinted vinyl to overlay the bronze in a few test areas to see if we can get the color where I want it. I also have a few other tweaks in mind that will probably happen over the coming...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    It's hard to get a pic of how they look in person, but here are a couple of shots. In the pics where you see a clear dot of color, its enhancing that with the camera focus I think. From a few steps away they look wet black. When you are up close and looking at them in the sun, they definitely...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Thanks! Black lug nuts for sure. I need to order some. I have spacers on the way too, so will probably just swap them at the same time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Trust the process. [emoji41]. It will look good when I’m done. This is not my first rodeo customizing vehicles. Also it looks much better in person vs pics. I do appreciate your feedback though, keep it coming! Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    $550, but I'm a repeat customer, ( I have used this shop for years for multiple cars/wheels) so I'm not sure if thats the standard rate or not. I highly recommend them for anyone in the mid-Ohio area. https://www.facebook.com/paintandpowderpros/

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Next phase of the evolution complete. I got the wheels powder coated wet black with multi-color metallic flake. Very happy with the results. The Bronze wrap is growing on me but will be experimenting with a light tint vinyl over it next week to try to tone down the brightness a bit and give...

    Need Help in my Lemon Case

    I think is a tech service bulletin or something similar. Basically a documented description of an issue and how the techs fix it maybe? - Maybe I should have let someone else respond who knows exactly what it stands for :cool:

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Thanks! I appreciate your honest feedback, and I have a pretty good eye for what looks good, and I knew when my first impression didn't blow me away, that some changes were in order. Yea they do great work. I looked at tons of swatches trying to pick a good accent color. I agree black...
