Looks good. Recommendation turn the bars on both bikes so either front tires touch in the center or push into the box corners. Gives good clearance between the bar ends and also brings the bikes a few inches forward.

Yep, you shouldn't expect much more than 7th. With my similar trailer, when cruising on the flats at ~65 mph it's usually in 6th unless I have some helping wind.

I'm just a garage fabricator, so don't have a bender....everything is welded. I use both round and square tubing, obviously square tubing is less "pretty" but easier to work with.

Modified my rack to make it lower as I found I didn't need to fold or roll the tonneau up.

Easy to put 2 bikes in with the tailgate down. Using the bed extended is another story.

Wife and I got tired of sharing, so we just picked up another Ram. Found a left over 2020 Laramie spec'd exactly the way I would order (except it has useless Ram Telematics). MSRP $62,295, sale price $48,000 + tax and license fees. Essentially 23% off MSRP + tax and license fees. Truck also...

To be clear I'm talking about the black leather interior. With the Southwest Edition basically the bottom half (up to the top of the dash and seats) is black and the top half (i.e. pillars and roof) is a beige color. Some of the trim strips on the lower half are also a beige color. If anyone...

I'm close to pulling the trigger on another 1500 and am like the Southwest Edition package but and struggling a bit with the interior color mix of black leather/dash/carpets and beige trim, pillars and headliner. What are people's thougts on this interior look?

Don't have any plans as I just built it by measuring on the truck, then cutting and welding as I went. I will gladly send you pictures or take measurements of anything you'd like. FYI-I've used it a couple times now with my roof top tent and it's worked great. It's plenty sturdy, I have...

1. I just put the suspension in entry/exit, to lower as much as possible. 2. I don't know where to look for the weight rating of the bed rails and I doubt you'll find it as it would be dependent on distribution of the weight. It's pretty safe to assume the bed side can handle more than the...

The rack sits on some flat plates that sit right on the bedside. Welded to the flat plate (at ~90 degrees) is 1/8" flat bar. The flat bar is sandwiched between the utility group rails (which the tonneau mounts to) and the bed side. The flat bar has holes drilled to match the utility group...

Will do. We're going camping Father's Day weekend (already have a tent). Should be interesting, it's the first time I've convinced the wife to join me in the RTT.

I built up my own rambox compatible rack and happy with how it came out. The rack mounts with no mod's to my truck and works with both the rambox's and backflip cover.

Built up my own rambox compatible rack and happy with how it came out. Thanks 2019ramrebel12 for the inspiration. The rack mounts with no mod's to my truck and works with both the rambox's and backflip cover. Now just need to put the RTT on it.

Thanks. Your rack should be able to handle substantially more weight than your truck.

I'm going to pretty much copy yours for my RTT. What size and guage of tubing did you use? I was thinking 1.25", 14 ga.

This is too black and white. Tires do matter as well as other capacities. Making upgrades (such as improved tires, shocks, springs, etc..) can increase your "safe" payload capacity. What upgrades can not do, without recertification, is increase your legal payload capacity. The difficult part...

I've got a 2020 with Ramboxes and bought a bed extender/divider from a pre-2019 and it fits perfectly in my truck.

Interested in Houston area.
