    Fox 2.5 DSC Suspension - A Brief Overview, Procedure, and Review of Proper Suspension Setup

    can't really go wrong with them. they are one of the two top tier "off-the-shelf" options out there (the other one is King) though because of my use case and me being lazy to do the calculations regarding spring rates and calculating the shim stacks when I eventually rebuild and revalve, my...

    UCA's necessary?

    you're doing the work already, might as well get UCA swapped as well. makes the job a lot easier too because when UCA comes off first it gives more space to work with. don't really see why not do it at the same time. edit: use QUALITY UCA, not something found on amazon. use something that is...

    Help! Swapping to a 2025+ Ram 1500 Dual Wireless Charger

    yes and i was just offering realistic ideas: as in, there are better options that cost less and work better (aka, not "just fine" but "better than just fine."

    Ram Service - Vehicle Alert email for no reason

    had that kind of random email/ notification in the past, when the truck was still relatively low mileage. went to look at the truck and nothing was wrong. probably just a computer glitch or system learning. the UC5 not working at all for a bit and then resume working perfectly is probably...

    200,000 mile report

    the early tundra for that generations are built decently overall. but then we also done quite a few engine swaps on the 5.7s. the only thing I chose Ram over Tundra was the C-channel frames instead of box frames.

    Help! Swapping to a 2025+ Ram 1500 Dual Wireless Charger

    it doesn't matter if it's a 2025+ module or not, still not QC certified. so basically one can hack it and do plastic welding etc to make it fit but at the end of the day, charging will still be slow and if you use carplay/ android auto while listening to music and use google map/ apple map/...
