According to the Ram 1500 User Guide P. 68, the Rambox capacity is 150lbs per side, but it states the load
should be evenly distributed. You could probably add an 3/32" or 1/8" aluminum plate in the bottom the better distribute the weight over the thin plastic bottom.
I have to agree with you...
Ram probably saves quit as bit of money on Class III, they only mount a ball to the bumper. The Classs IV is a frame mount. Not everyone pulls a heavy trailer and you need the right engine option to have the power required to pull full rated load on a Class IV. I'm pretty sure most of the...
To answer your questions about doing my own work, I've been wrenching on cars and motorcycles since I was 14 or 15, and now I'm 62. I practically had a fleet of beeters (4 kids with 10-15 year old cars with more than 150kmi on them) besides all of the dozens of cars I've owned that constantly...
Yes, partially before I made my first post. I looked at most of the stuff you mentioned, tires, wheels bearings, but I did not start thinking of the leaf spring mounts and equalizer until after that. I haven't done anything with the leaf spring mounts because I thought they were like the leafs...
I've seen a video on a Hensley hitch before, I agree that it looks like it should cure sway problems, but the cost of the hitch seems over the top for my purposes. First I couldn't find anywhere that gave me an actual price for a new one, but it looks to be $2000-3000 from the references I...
Sorry if I came off rude, it wasn't meant that way and I appreciate input. But a couple of things I'd say is, I've been reading a lot of threads here and I think there are more people than you think that have had this problem. Usually you would think this would be from overloading one or...
It has nothing to do with my hitch set-up. I've been using this Easy-Lift WDH since I got the trailer 18 years ago and used with 2 other vehicles and it is solid. If you were to look up current reviews on this WDH, they are always one of the top rated for the money. The sway is from the...
If you've read my thread "First Impressions after towing, trailer sway, tire load index and rating" you know I'm not thrilled about the stability with trailering my 27' travel trailer. As I pointed out, I've already ordered a Hellwig solid sway bar, and I'm looking at potentially replacing...
I got my 27' Sunline TT out from storage recently, about 20 mile trip. This was my first time pulling trailer I've had for about 18 years, using a Ram. I originally pulled this trailer with a 2002 Chevy Express 1500, and more recently a 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500. The hitch height was the...
I've only had my truck for a few months (has ~3500 miles) and until this point, haven't had any issues. But a couple of days ago, my Alpine 9 speaker system started having issues. I thought it was cutting out on one station, but it happened on all stations, Am FM or XM. When I got home and...
My truck only has about 700 miles and was manufactured 4/2019. After reading about problems with the AC I wanted to check mine. It's been in the low to mid 90's with high humidity the last couple of weeks, and my air seems to be working fine. I'm a very mechanical guy, but AC is not my bag...
I actually bought the Mopar version for convenience only. According to someone from Tonneau Factory Outlet, the Mopar MX4 equivalent hardcovers are made by Bakflip. Anyway, I'll let you know how my install goes. Right now truck is in getting Line-X sprayed in bed liner applied. Hopefully...
I just ordered the parts exactly as you mentioned above, 1- # 68027145ae, 2 - #68054996aa & 2-#68054997ab. Did you add this on or was it part of the option group when you bought truck. I'm just wondering if this is everything I need? Does it come with a lock and key, nuts & bolts for swivel...
I am picking up my new Ram truck with Rambox's on a 5'7"bed tomorrow and was planning on buying the Mopar version, 82215225AB, of the BakFlip MX4, for convenience, and install it myself. I had a MX4 on my Silverado I'm trading in, and I give them a high quality rating. Is there any consensus...
Hello from Chicago western Suburbs. I haven't even got my truck yet, should take it home tomorrow. I am trading in my 2011 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab 4x2. I've owned a couple of Dakota's in the past, this is my first full size Ram and first 4wd. Decided to try it based on ratings from a couple...
