I mounted it (Blackvue 750x....shoutout to @securityguy for his recommendation and the phone conversation!)...on the fixed rear glass as close to the slider as I could get it. Up near the top of the glass. That way I can open and close the slider with no issues. The view is ever so slightly...
Road trip. ~700+ miles. Stopped 3 times, had about an hour of traffic. Average speed: 61mph. 11 1/2 hours, all in.
(Hmm, stops and traffic? Stops...45 minutes. Traffic. Say it slowed me by 30 minutes (bumper to bumper, stopped.) So, 11:30 minus 1:15...means 10:15 driving. Actual driving...
Far better to find such a simple fix than to have a damaged/ruined BCM.
Call the service manager. Let him know what you found. Let him fill the silence with an offer of a free oil change or somesuch.
I just bought this:

It's perfect! A 22mm socket fits (just like the one that fits our OEM lugs). It goes about 6" past the rear bumper, so my breaker bar won't hit the bumper...
First, I love my BedRug. (I bought because of how good my neighbor's BedRug is.)
So, when I helped my son get a truck, I bought him a BedRug as well.
I removed his BedRug today (a year after install). His truck is a work truck. When I pulled up the BedRug, the velcro strips that hold it to the...
My leak did not make the headliner wet. It came down the frame of the window.
Simple check would be to work from the floor and go up. Is there evidence of water in the back?
This, coupled with some security bolts, seems like a great idea. Thieves want the quick in and out. Anything that slows them down will induce most of them to go to the next vehicle.
I said nothing about breaking. I just want something simpler than what is currently on board. A bar is pretty easy to store. Heck, I could strap it to my cargo rack.
As I mentioned, other vehicles with the cable and winch spare have the winch located so you can see and touch the rotating lug...
This is my thought. Thankfully, unlike you, I have not had to test it in actual field conditions. I've got a high-lift bottle jack and some wood pieces that I keep in the bed in case I need to jack up the truck. I also have a 24" breaker bar and 22mm socket for the lugs.
(FWIW, the lowering...
Folks,
I want a sturdy piece of metal to raise and lower my spare, not the three (four?) piece Rube Goldberg contraption sitting under the front passenger seat.
What works? What do people use? (I'll store it either in the bed or under the rear seat, next to my breaker bar.)
Thanks!
The PowerStop z36 kit is what I used on a 2007 1500. Perfect swap. Very easy, very good brake kit.
OEM is fine. If that's what you're more comfortable doing, then use them.
Me? When this Ram needs brakes, I'm going to use PowerStop rotors and pads. (Hell, I may even buy them now, since I don't...
