    Uhh???

    I'm not sure what "rim" you have, but to give you an direct comparison, of two wheels and tires that are the same. ProComp 31 with a 35" Nitto Trail Grappler in both 17 and 20. A 17" PC 31 weighs 31 lbs. and a 20" 42 lbs. The Nitto in 17 is 77 lbs and the 20 is 79 lbs. Total weight of the...

    Uhh???

    Really? I own 3 (including the one in the pic I posted), and have had over 30 in my life. Not to mention having my own shop. Thank you. Apple to apples, in every combination a 20 weighs more than an equivalent 17. Not to mention every other detractor I mentioned.

    Uhh???

    Sorry. On a Jeep, 20’s are useless. Less sidewall. Wrong load rating. Less sidewall flex. More rolling weight. Not a single advantage and plenty of disadvantages.

    Ready lift vs Rough Country UCA

    As the owner of an off road shop. I would never install anything Rough Country makes past a leveling puck. They literally are the worst lifts and components on the market. So bad I refuse to even sell any of their products. At least once a month I’m replacing a set of bent control arms...

    Uhh???

    Believe me. Those grumper kits are the laughing stock of the Jeep community too. Right next to 20’s.

    Gravel roads vs XL or E rated tires

    Even a P rated tire would be fine on gravel roads. Any LT C D or E would be more than enough

    Light bar Power Wire

    I have a dual color (amber or white) on my Jeep. I wired mine to two relays. Relays draw from battery. One is switched to a tap on the fog light wire for amber and the second relay tapped to the high beam wire. Turn my Figs on. It lights the Amber function. Hit my high beams and it kills the...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Make it a very short term solution. Those tend to do more to ruin paint than they do to protect them.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Usually caused by a loose gas cap. It will reset itself if it doesn't detect it again.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Long week... Polished and clay barred the paint, applied ceramic coating. De-chromed everything except for the Grill's "RAM" (Save that fro when I have to pull the grill to install the dual color LED bar). Painted the brake calipers. Tinted the tails and the mirror lights. Then broke out...

    Ceramic coating DIY Kits

    I use Car Pro’s CQUK on all my vehicles. Very impressed. A few months ago wife was backing her Charger out of the garage and the belt broke. Dropping the door and dragging it across the hood. Small dent at initial impact, but not one scratch on the paint.

    TInted taillights ( Halogen)?

    Did mine yesterday. I used VViViD Air Tint. Not the best pic. But it’s storming out so it’s the best you’ll get for now.

    Key Code # - how/where to find it?

    The code is on a small white sheet of paper (3”x4” maybe) sealed with the owner manual package.

    Black Badging - How to ?

    It was asked earlier in this thread, though I didn’t see it answered... Is it possible to remove the center section of the grill where the RAM logo is without removing the entire grill? Not the letters themself, the center section that they mount too?
