    Ready Lift - 2" leveling kit with Ready Lift control arms

    How much height does the off road package give you up front? I have top mount spacers and my full droop is no where near that bad. My ball joint still had much more movement past full droop. I do not have the ORP and when I installed my 2 inch level it almost stayed stock.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    “it’s normal start up just the lifters” lol you got the video spot on! That noise is exactly what I was talking about. Funny enough I was an *** to my truck this weekend and floored it a couple times and hit the speed limiter and I haven’t gotten a clank in 2 days. Not sure if it has anything to...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    I’ve tried everything. Switching to neutral then parking brake then park. Straight to park with parking brake. Automatic parking brake. In drive putting on parking brake. I’ve tried every combination possible. I have not tried pulling the neutral cord in the dash yet. Might try that in the morning.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    It’s on page 2 from October 10th. Posted by me. I think it’ll explain more for you. I appreciate the input.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Please listen to the video I posted. I am an engineer and fully understand the difference between lifter and a loud clank .5 after. It does not sound good. It is a clank or think of an old truck when you parked on a steep hill and you had to slam it into gear and the tranny clanked. That’s what...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    So the dealer called.... Cannot replicate noise even after I showed them two separate videos of the clank. THEY SAID THEY COULD HEAR THE CLANK IN BOTH VIDEOS THAT I PROVIDED. So now I have a brand new truck that clanks so hard it shakes the truck but the dealer won't do anything. All I wanted...

    I have never had it clunk when using remote start.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Truck is at the dealer. Even though I had multiple videos of the sound they said I had to leave it so they could replicate it. All I wanted was then to do the flash with the new updates but I guess they didn't believe me? Now I'm without a truck and they could not give me a loaner because I do...

    I have an appointment at 7am tomorrow requesting a flash update. Hopefully this will resolve my issues.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    How many miles do you have? I have 1K and am wondering if the noise will start fading.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    RAM805 did you ever take the truck into the dealer? Very interested to hear what they said it is. Hopefully its something other then "The engineers built it this way"

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Got it. So using the parking break is the fix? How many trucks do you think have this issue? I know you don’t have a number but everyone or 10%?

    Loud Noise on Startup

    I will start using my parking break again. Did have a manual car before this so I was in a good habit... Below is the video of the clunk/clank. Let me know if this is the same sound you are hearing. This wasn’t as loud as it has been before or was yesterday but it still gives you the idea.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Can you guide me to where this message may be in the cluster display? I never park on a hill so I never use the parking brake. The only time it is consistent is on cold start ups. I agree with the old autos when they would clank but that only seemed to happen on hills. Issue is the clank happens...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Thanks for the reply. I have never heard of a relay powerful enough to send a jolt through the cab of the truck! Or a relay that is powerful enough that it can be heard turning on 25 feet away on top of the engine start noise. What relay could this be? I would stay it sounds like me taking a...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    But you still head that clank .5 seconds after the engine starts? Today was the first day I started it with the push button with the driver door open on a cold star and realized it is 2x as loud then just sitting in the cab.

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Does it almost jolt the truck? I started it next to a friend the other day about 25 feet away and he even heard it. I almost feel like it is the rear differential or something with the U-Joints. Thinking when the truck first start and the torque converter starts spinning it makes the...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Hey RAM805, have you taken this to the dealer to have it checked out? I feel the clank on mine has now become louder (I am now at the "I need to figure out what this is, it's going to break"). Not sure if this is 100% true but when I remote start the clunk NEVER happens. ONLY happens when the...

    Ready Lift - 2" leveling kit with Ready Lift control arms

    I cannot remember exactly but in the 1 1/2 inch area. That still gave me 2 inches of lift.
