    Surge when letting off brakes

    Hey Guys, One of the first builds Ram Big Horn here. The build date was 03/18. I have a new issue that I have not seen on the forum. Every time I come to a complete stop, sit a the stop light or stop sign when I let off the brake I get a surge. Best way to explain the surge is if a small car...

    Resonator delete only?

    Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone has deleted just the resonators and what it sounded like? My local shop said they would do it for 80 buck but I was wondering if there was a video and/or if anyone has experience with just doing the resonators and keeping the stock muffler. Thanks

    Best Sunshade?

    Has anyone come across one of those top-tier sun shades? I always see them in BMWs and a couple Mustangs around here. They seem like they are thick and have the car brand logo on them. I would love to get one but am not sure if anyone has released them for the 2019s yet. All I have come across...

    2wd & 4wd Same Suspension for Level?

    Can anyone confirm if the 2wd and 4wd have the exact same suspension components? I want to do the 2.5 top mount level kit.

The RC directions have the alignment specs for 4x4 but was wondering if they would be different for the 4x2. When you level a truck does the stock alignment specs...
