    Slight vibration

    Any of you guys in the Pittsburgh area? I mentioned I had been down the balance rout multiple times then took it to another shop for a road force and they found one tire/wheel that was way out so they match mounted it and it is like a new truck. Not all tire shops / tire techs are =... I’d love...

    Slight vibration

    As I mentioned I am about as close as I think I’m going to get to making the vibration go away following the roadforce balance with the OEM tires and wheels, one think I will say, and I’ll update you when I swap my winters is that this year Ram replaces the 60 series tire on the 20 inch set up...

    Slight vibration

    Update on my truck, last weekend I went down the balance rabbit hole, dynamic balance, static balance, moved all the wheels and tires around etc. I was very close to having someone put Counteract Balance beads in but decided I would try roadforce even though there are mixed reviews. Now I have...

    Slight vibration

    Has anyone tried counteract balancing beads? I know there is mention of it in some of the other threads but not this one. Over the weekend I tried rebalancing the tires and although they were all out of balance I can’t say having them balanced made a difference. I then took the advice of a...

    Slight vibration

    I had 800 miles on my truck when I noticed the vibration, I was making a 4 hour drive home to pick up my brother for an 7500 mile road trip. I have the same issue but I can slightly feel it in the steering wheel too... so seat, floor, pedal, wheel. I rarely drive 55 mph, I’m either under 50 or...

    OEM Tradesman Steel Wheels with Snow Tires

    I’m sure they do but you should hit up Craig’s list for a set of take offs and put some snows on them. I got a set of 18” Laramie wheels with tires and sensors for 500 bucks with 500 miles on them... doubt you can buy 2 Steelies for that let alone the sensors.

    Clear Coat Bubbling

    Those are air bubbles that formed at the apex of what looks to be some serious runs. It is possible that a good body shop could have their detailer sand/wet sand then cut and polish a 1/16 of an inch of clear coat off of the edges there. I noticed that all of these trucks look like they were...

    Grinding sound beging Steering wheel / Airbag

    have a 19 Longhorn. I recently returned from a 7000 mile road trip... the worst thing about putting 7k miles on your new car before you make a payment on the thing is the dread that you feel when you uncover issues that you cannot find a fix to and are not sure that you can live with. On my trip...

    Steering wheel “grinding” sound and “Vibration”

    My thoughts and opinions after 20,000 miles

    For what it’s worth... on the leather wheel, I remember old Chrysler products would get really bad and the leather would delaminate and stretch funny at the top if you were a one handed driver. If the leather is “spotty” and I would need a pic... but... it may just be dirty, I have never liked...

    Weird AC recirculating air noise.

    Thank you Lydia, I’ll be honest I hate taking my car in for service, I do all of my own maintenance because even though I know it is next to impossible for some to work under the hood without touching the painted surfaces around the outside it still drives me crazy when I get my vehicle back...

    Random Blower Motor Noise

    This is driving me nuts, I do a lot of long distance highway driving and it is every 15 mins... anyone get an answer from a dealership. I’ll be honest, I would not have bought the thing had I known it was going to do this... these little things drive me nuts. I’ve owned 25 cars... never seen...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Damn... who is that other lender? I do not like the idea of loans that long, but I have a higher rate on 60 months

    Upgrading to ORG on a non ORG truck... kit available or piece mill the parts

    Interesting, I thought it came with 3.92, knowing what I know now... 1100 miles down I would have got the 3.21... MPG blows

    Upgrading to ORG on a non ORG truck... kit available or piece mill the parts

    For some reason I have always shied away from level kits, tbh I like a rake and when I tow I think a level kit would make the squat more pronounced. I will take a look though. I am a huge OEM fan, If I mod something I want it to look like kit came that way... but I know that is not a normal...

    Upgrading to ORG on a non ORG truck... kit available or piece mill the parts

    Hello, I have a Longhorn w/o the off road group, in a perfect world I would have got the .ORG but I got such a good deal on the truck that I figured I could lift it and put skid plates on for not too much money if I wanted to at some point down the road. So the question is, based on my...

    Front Window Tint % Preference

    Thank you, I have to say I did not notice until you mentioned it, but it looks like the pillars on the Longhorn and Limited is shiny black plastic and on the Laramie and the rebel it is matte. So I guess to answer the question I did not.

    How’s your 2019 Ram running? Take our poll!

    So I have a Longhorn with ramboxes... the plastic cover at the top of them is a bit bowed on each side and they definitely fit a bit wonky but I figure it’s worth it for the convenience. I absolutely love them. Aside from that... if noticed that the smart key act off sometimes... at a gas pump I...

    Front Window Tint % Preference

    I have tinted every car I have owned... heck I could probably buy a civic for what I have spent on tint in the last 20 years. 20% Express classic Black NR on the fronts, perfect match for both shade and hue. Seriously considering the windshield at 50
