    Aftermarket rear replacement bumper revisited

    Also one note I should make about using the curt class 5 hitch and the RC is the top plate on the receiver is very wide and I had to make 1/4” x 3/4” relief cuts to allow the RC to fit properly. Noticed it when mocking it up and did those cuts and painted myself before giving the parts to the...

    Aftermarket rear replacement bumper revisited

    Same here, I would have preferred the RC bumper had cutouts to use the oem plate lights but the bolt lights are a pretty cool custom touch. Thats the one thing the shop messed up, the hooked up the lights but did not put the plate on lol. They wanted it for another day to do that I told them no...

    Aftermarket rear replacement bumper revisited

    Finally got the truck back from the body shop with the new curt class 5 hitch and the RC. Absolutely love the setup. Extremely solid.

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    Mine in my 2019 ram bighorn are 433Mhz as well. Im pretty sure all rams, all trims use the 433Mhz. You need to verify if they are still alive with a tpms tool, and if they are indeed alive, that they are the correct frequency and compatible IDs. You never know.. ram wheels fit chevy trucks...

    I also torqued that fitting before installing the puck. I used a nice set of crows foot wrenches to get the system installed as well.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Ill get back to you on the axle brand/part. They are upgraded, thicker shafts, and bigger CV joints. They are designed for severe duty and lifted applications. My oems were in bad shape. They were cracked, rusted, and loose on the splines. Shop that did the work recommended that I do them...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    New beefed up front axles, front bilstein 5100 on clip 6, bilstein 5100 rear shocks and rear dual rate bilstein lift springs, powerstop brake kits front and rear, ppe trans pan and service. RC upper control arms. It was not a cheap day!

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    If they took a week to register initially, the batteries were probably very weak. They should register in a few minutes / few miles. The batteries are likely too low now for the reset ecu to pickup.

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    You can change the IDs in the ecu with a tool like the autel with an OBD security bypass cable. I almost went this route but decided modifying the ecu is more risk/expensive than just getting the correct sensors that the ecu is factory programmed to use. The dealer would mist likely just tell...

    Remote Mount Oil Filter

    This. I pull the drain plug and then go rebuild a dirtbike or take care of house projects while the ram drips the day away. I usually don't put the drain plug back in until the drips have stopped. I don’t run an uncle eds 15 minute quick lube. I run Dads OCD garage. $200/hr labor rate. 😁 to keep...

    Aftermarket rear replacement bumper revisited

    Yep. The shop is happy too because I'm acquiring the parts faster than they can get OEM parts. Everybody wins! Im also going to upgrade the rear springs to bilstein dual rate 1” lift springs to account for the extra weight. I have the 6’4” box and crew cab so Im already rolling heavy compared to...

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    No thats not it. The sensors will read down to low pressure. Maybe the wheels and tires came from canada or something? I bought some ram wheels from a limited that looked a little different than anything I've seen and despite having oem sensors they were all dead and didn't register. No tool...

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    I bought the autel ts508. I use the autel tpms sensors and program them with the tool and have 0 issues. I did have to pay the tire shop to break the bead and install them but at least got a rotation out of the deal.

    Aftermarket rear replacement bumper revisited

    I think this is exactly what happened. I was first stopped at a red light. Jeep GC stopped behind me. Teen in a silverado doing 50 went straight into the jeep and then the jeep went into me. Luckly I looked in my rearview and saw it coming and had a 3 second head start to put the hemi to the...

    Aftermarket rear replacement bumper revisited

    My truck was recently rear ended and Im rebuilding the rear to be much stronger. The factory bumper is tin foil and plastic, I can literally bend it with my bare hands. I went with the RC because its thicker steel than the others I looked at and 1 piece. The mounts themselves are 1/4” thick. Its...

    TPMS reset after changing wheels and tires?

    You just need to drive it around and the truck will auto learn if they are the correct frequency and the have the correct ID range. I learned that Chrysler's are sensitive to the ID range as I put wrangler wheels on my grand cherokee and despite being the correct frequency the ID range was...

    Remote Mount Oil Filter

    I have access to other vehicles in case of an emergency. I also do leave the hood open as a precaution when I drain overnight because that disables the remote start. I suppose if you were really worried about it you could disconnect a battery terminal too, which I also do once and awhile to...
