    Stock rear sway bar size? 2019 Ram Rebel

    Looking to replace my rear sway bar bushings with poly in the rear. Can anyone confirm if the stock bar is indeed 22mm? Thank you.

    Clunk/rattle from rear of cab: 2019 Rebel

    I am wondering if anyone has any input on this. I don't know if I would call it a clunk more so than a rattle? Truck has 75k and original sway bar bushings. Looking to replace those, just haven't had the time. Any usual suspects to check out?

    Dead battery #2 eTorque output question

    I am on my 2nd dead battery on my 2019 Ram Rebel 5.7L eTorque. The main battery, not the 48v backpack. It's 11.9v at rest which is telling me its almost done. The first time it went dead it was under warranty and they had to replace the eTorque generator as well. I never found out why, but...

    Front wheel stud replacement

    Last night while changing my oil and rotating my tires I noticed one of my wheel studs on the front left wheel is a bit bent. I've always torqued to the recommended 130-135 ft/lbs so I am not sure how this happened. In terms of replacement, is it as straightforward as removing the wheel...

    Recommendations: External add-on lights

    I am looking for some recommendations for add-on external lights, perhaps from folks who use their trucks for hunting as well. I do a lot of hunting where I often find myself at a pitch black sand boat ramp, or in the middle of the woods, or even at the beach. The first logical one is chase...

    Camber nonsense

    Take this as a lesson from me and avoid making the same mistakes... Just did Bilstein 5100's with a 2" level in the front and Rough Country UCA's on my 2019 Rebel. I took it to the local Mavis ("big box" store) around the corner from my office out of convenience for the recommended alignment. I...

    3" factory rake?

    I am about to do 5100 Bilsteins on my Rebel with 65k. Stock shocks and struts are basically done. Doing the pre-measurements, I am coming up with 3" of rake with the factory shocks/struts/springs. Does this seem right? The goal with the 5100's is to level the front. Level pavement, measured...

    Safety chain shackles that fit the hitch?

    Anyone have any luck finding shackles to fit the early 5th gen hitch like below? I know it sounds dumb but it would make me feel a little better knowing I have the shackle locking all the way into the hitch.

    2019 Ram Rebel (no air susp) - Bilstein Level and Rear?

    I'm sort of lost on this. The last time I looked into this the truck had 30k in miles. Well, now it has 54k. I know I may be looking at new struts soon. Truck is riding a little rougher. Mostly road use but it does see some mild (very mild) off-road action. Tires are wearing very evenly, rotated...

    Engine detailing risks

    I feel like an idiot asking this but: What is the general consensus on engine detailing? I have a 2019 Ram Rebel 5.7L eTorque. Most of my previous vehicles were leases. Drive for 3 years, return to dealer, get something new. Only time I ever opened the hood was to periodically check oil, change...

    2019 Rebel rear window frame failure, very disappointed

    First off, I never wanted to be or thought I was going to be "that guy." The guy who literally feels like driving the truck to another brand dealer, doing a trade on the spot for something else. Just to frame this out, here is the list of vehicles my family has owner in the last decade and a...

    Second thoughts on Rebel 2" level

    I'm at a crossroads with my 2019 Ram Rebel. Stock DuraTracs have 40k on them. Being I need new tires, I figured why not upgrade the size/brand? Currently the winner is MT Baja Boss 295/70/18's. They are about 34" and 11" wide. With a 2" level would be perfect. But now, I am questioning myself...

    2019 Ram Rebel - Can't decide which way to go

    I've done quite a bit of reading and cannot decide what I want to do here. My 2019 Ram Rebel is approaching 40k on the stock DuraTracs. Looks like I might barely get out of winter here in NJ with them. I am really torn on what I want to do in terms of tires and possibly suspension as well. I am...

    NJ Member Intro

    Hello, Just recently joined. I have had a 2019 Ram Rebel with standard suspension and 8.4 Uconnect since September of 2019. The truck is basically stock aside from a K&N drop in filter and Gator tri-fold tonneau. The truck has treated me very well. I am an avid waterfowler and if you see a red...
