    Easter Egg? Not Sure, But It Was Awesome.

    Haven't tried this with my Ram yet, but my 2018 jeep grand Cherokee would not allow me to back up to a trailer with the driver door open. Always has to close the door before it would move.

    What do these do ???

    I think you have it right. One is for ambient lighting for sure. I also think the other is for instrument lighting. Like said above. Try them when it's dark outside.

    BFG KO2 285/60/20 Tire Pressure

    Greetings. I recently replaced the stock tires with the larger bfg"s. Thinking about what tire pressure I should run. Door jam says 36 for stock tires. Dealer set new tires at 41. I emailed bf goodrich with this question. They gave me a disclaimer but said the manufacturer suggested psi for this...

    LT Trailboss..

    My Ram story is short. I had my eyes on a Trailboss LT with 6.2L also. One Saturday my wife and I went to a dealership and drove a 6.2L and a diesel. Left the dealership thinking that was the choice I was going to make. But my wife kept commenting on how cheap and unattractive the interior was...

    Real world MPGs / What are you averaging?

    I'm getting in the 15-16 range with a level and bigger tires. Lost 1 to 2 mpg with the tires. Not a lot of highway driving. Probably 70/30 city/highway. Best trip was 21 on a 200 mile trip mostly highway with tail wind. Return route was 19.

    speedometer calibration ?????

    I went back to my dealer with the info from Ramchaser. They still couldn't get it done. Another ram dealer in my area said straight up nope. Buy a decide to do it yourself. There's another dealer a little further away. Guess I'll call them. But seriously thinking about alpha OBD and doing it...

    Help! Leveling kit 2019 Laramie

    Ya that's my thought too. I've been thinking about the hellwig. Sounds like You're saying that even though the body roll is caused by rasing the center of gravity in the front, adding the hellwig in the rear will help with the body roll?

    Help! Leveling kit 2019 Laramie

    Before reading on this forum I didn't know anything about lifts and levels. Just knew I wanted to take out the rake. The Readylift is what the dealer chose. We didn't have any discussion of options. After reading this site, I would definitely be checking into the Bilstein adjustable shocks as an...

    Help! Leveling kit 2019 Laramie

    I have this kit, but without the uca's. They're still stock. This is what the dealer installed when I requested a 2" level when I purchased the truck 6 months ago. I've learned a lot since then by reading this site. Most say the factory uca's will work fine at 2" maximum lift. Anything more than...

    Mysterious rattle - Front sway bar links

    Sharing for the benefit of others. I recently had a rattle/light clunking that was difficult to describe. Difficult to determine where it was coming from. Only heard it on rough roads and railroad tracks. More than the sound, it was a sense of something was loose, like the whole cab. I was at...

    speedometer calibration ?????

    Thanks for the info Ramchaser. My truck is at the dealer now - trying to track down some bothersome rattling noises. I shared this info with the service advisor. Still getting same response - they aren't able to do all tire sizes. It's looking like I may need to go the Alpha OBD route. Honestly...

    Firestone Destination XT reviews?

    I went through this for months, and finally last week pulled the trigger on BFG KO2's in 285/60/20. Like them so far, but have only driven a couple hundred miles.

    Granite crystal metallic thread

    Only driven 100 miles but so far I love them. Road noise is only noticeable if you're listening for it. Ride is smooth. Not enough miles yet to comment on mpg.
