    No Longer Needed: Wanted: Factory HK Sub Enclosure

    Anyone out there who has done an HK upgrade and have not junked the factory HK sub enclosure? I am looking for one to model a custom fiberglass enclosure after (general fitment) to see IF I can get a custom box to fit a JL thin series 13" sub (these subs are just over two and a half inches in...

    Laramie Rental shifts way different than my Limited. Possible Trans update?

    My February build Longhorn, also 3.92 gears and 5.7 non-eTorque shifts smooth as silk...This feature alone has a buddy of mine considering trading out of his King Ranch...

    Anybody else have the Mopar OFF-Road Running Boards?

    I took off the factory power running boards and put these on...Overall I like them-they sit higher than any other running board I've seen and thus give a bit more protection from door dings. I do feel there is something a little off-may just be the dull dark grey look vs the slightly shiny true...

    Engine ECU Tuning

    I was told by SuperChips (talked to them about a week ago) that they expect a full-fledged tune (not just the Pulsar) available within the next couple of months...Now the wait begins!

    Window tint questions

    That is really dark for both windshield as well as drivers door glass...Be very careful you do not run over someone at night! Mostly around here (Arizona) they tint windshields at 70%, I had my windshield tinted at 80% ceramic and could not be happier! I also used the same 80% for the sunroof...

    Gas mileage v8 without Etorque..... 4wd

    Well on my fourth tank I just averaged 12.9...Now this is hand calculated with 34" tires vs stock 32"' and an uncorrected speedometer, 3.92 gears and an admittedly heavy right foot...All in all, about where I expected to be and will probably settle in at mid 14's to 15MPG. Dealer says he can...

    Too good to be true?

    I also do not see such a 'great' deal here...I would check with dealers who have inventory, check all incentives and likely you will find as good as deal-especially when you factor in additional discounts by financing with Chrysler Credit...And you will KNOW it has not been abused.

    New possible buyer here. Can anyone chime in on some questions I have?

    Personally, I am not a fan of air suspension...However, there are more than a few Limited owners who would disagree :) I would suggest you research both-there are many threads on pros/cons, drive both, decide how you plan to use your truck and what/if any mods you plan. Dealer cannot 'force'...

    1/2” - 1” Spacer Lift

    You are in a similar situation as I am, I want a 1-1.5" front lift (I have ORP) and there is nothing out there I could find...So I am waiting for Bilstein to release their 5100 adjustable height shocks for the 19's-hopefully in the next few months. I had these on my 16' Ram and loved them.

    4×4 Off-Road Package

    I first tried mounting 285/65R20 BFG KO2's for fitment on my Longhorn with stock rims and ORP (no air suspension) and they did slightly rub at full lock and this was without any suspension flex...What I wound up installing were BFG KO2's in 275/65R20-these are 34" tall (about 1/2" shorter than...

    Longhorn Review at Two Weeks & 1100 Miles

    I have had my truck just over two weeks, 1100 miles and happy to report I have had zero mechanical issues. Love this truck! Is it perfect? No, minor issues like needing to adjust drivers side doors slightly for better alignment are about it so far. Before ordering my Longhorn I looked at and...

    Dealer wants truck to "verify VIN"!?!

    A few reasons come to mind...1, As others have said there were open recalls they should have addressed prior to sale. 2, Their paperwork is screwed up and your truck is/was sold to someone else. 3, There is something wrong/incomplete with the financing they need to correct. 4, The truck had...

    12.2 MPG after first 1,000 miles

    My first tank I averaged (hand calculated) 12.92mpg, and I was babying it for break-in and never went over 60mph. I just filled up tonight and on my second tank I averaged 12.54mpg...Second tank I drove it a bit more aggressive with speeds up to 75mph and did a lot of 30-70mph sprints, again for...

    To Add Protection Film to the Front or Not?

    I had scheduled to have PPF installed last week but did not like the 'pre-cut kits' the installer was using-I now have an appointment next Friday at the shop that did my tint. At less than two weeks old, she already has several small chips in the front bumper...I am going to have one of the...
