    Interior Packages on a Rebel?

    The heated feature is what I miss the most on tow mirrors for frosty mornings. I had very similar tow mirrors on my 2004 Dodge Cummins 2500 and they had heaters at least. But, the large convex portion on new 2019 tow mirrors lets you see tire to curb space so helps with parking a lot. I...

    Best size wheels for Rebel Air suspension

    You will be happy. I have those same Mopar splash guards and you will need to trim some off inside of front flares as they will rub with steering turned. It is beyond their mounting hardware and only need to trim part of the double wall closest to tire. Get new wheels mounted on truck and...

    Best size wheels for Rebel Air suspension

    I included some pictures of application spec sheet. The lugs are conical so I think they center the wheel as opposed to the hub centering them like Subaru's, etc. I could be wrong. There are several style Fuel wheel in that 18"x9" +1 that fit Rebels perfectly with OEM Duratracs. Check out...

    Best size wheels for Rebel Air suspension

    Thanks and congrats!!! I had a local independent tire/wheel shop that has killer prices order and install them so I am not sure about the hub centric rings. I know his out the door mounted and balanced price including lug nuts was $900 which is better than internet. And I sold factory Rebel...

    AC - does anyone have a truck that blows ice cold?

    All I ever meant to offer was a helpful "work around" band aid to get anyone with real concerns in very hot and humid parts of the country some relief until a "proper" FCA sanctioned resolution has been determined. When Cra1g offered some actual ambient / all 4 dash vents measured numbers was...

    Thanks again for vent temps. This gives us some numbers for what a properly operating truck should deliver. :cool:

    Best Exhaust System for 2019 Ram

    I found it! See photo in "war machine" quote above. Use a big set of slip joint pliers (water pump pliers) and shove the rubber block on hanger in direction needed, then add screw hose clamp to hold rubber block in that location. 5 minute fix!

    AC - does anyone have a truck that blows ice cold?

    For the most part, members are looking for relief from mediocre driver center vent AC air cooling that live in hot areas of the country. Cra1g was interested in gathering some real measured numbers with his truck's AC cooling vent temps. His truck seems to be performing very well and may be...

    AC - does anyone have a truck that blows ice cold?

    Just for info comparison to amount of affect the hot coolant has. I agree that his temps sound reasonable. He seemed to be in experimenting mood.

    AC - does anyone have a truck that blows ice cold?

    Nice job! These are for all 4 dash vents, right? Go get vice grips or c clamp and wrap a sock on "out" hose for protection and put clamp on hose "out" from water pump and squeeze it like a garden hose and perform same test. You will see big difference

    Best Exhaust System for 2019 Ram

    I have Magnaflow cat back with long 5" exhaust tips and also was worried about that. Some members said it is ok if you release step slowly and not just let it slam. Also another said maybe washers could be added to mounting area to shim out some. I just 20 minutes ago ordered my step so will...

    AC - does anyone have a truck that blows ice cold?

    Here is a work around for now. Do at your own risk. Do not cut factory hoses so you can remove without a trace. You are (probably) currently getting 58-60 degree air from drivers center vent and 46-50 from passenger center vent. After reducing coolant flow, you will get (probably) 46-48...

    Air conditioning performance

    I bought a 2004 Dodge Cummins 2500 4x4 loaded Laramie brand new in November 2003, and I took it in for air bags recall recently and advisor couldn't believe it hadn't been to a dealer for service since 2005. (I had a dragging front wheel bearing back then). I said it only has 63k on it today...
