    Best Dash Cam

    Just something different to consider, I am using a Wolfbox 840S attached to the rear-view mirror and with the rear camera custom cut into the 3rd brake light (you could use a license plate bracket mount instead). This will give you front and rear recording and a digital mirror option if you...

    Shock Replacement Cost?

    Thanks everyone. I was expecting 3-400 or somewhere in the range. The front are not full strut, just the shocks so they have to be compressed and swapped. I am in the Kansas City area, shops that have usually been fair with work, but now 750-850 is the range I keep getting. The fronts are an...

    Shock Replacement Cost?

    Hey All, Just curious replacement costs (labor only) for replacement of all 4 shocks. I have regular suspension, got Bilstein shocks to replace them. Called a few shops and got some labor bids for $800, just seemed much higher than expected. Planned to do it myself but time has caused issues...

    Best Two-Way Radio / Setup

    I am running a tuned President Johnny III on the side of my console, with a Midland Ditch Light Mount for the antenna base. I use this for long work trips for traffic information, yes lots of bull on 19, and not used near at much as it used to be, but I can say its saved me multiple times when...

    Best Wireless Accessory Control System (All Opinions Welcome)

    I personally don't recommend the Trigger systems. While the switches are trash (got a warranty replacement that was also trash (last button randomly doesn't click on or off), the controller also blew out at just before 1 year. While warranty did cover it I was out of pocket to send back to...

    Key Fobs and LED interference

    For what it's worth for everyone, I've posted in this thread before and tried probably 5 different recommended and major named bulbs with all eventually having interference. Sometimes its barely noticeable for days or even weeks sometimes it's very noticeable immediately. I've even added ferrite...

    HOW TO: Add Digital Rearview Mirror

    Can anyone say if the 2019s with dimming side mirrors lose that function when doing this swap? I read through all the thread about the 21+ but if I do the brake light, harness, cable, and 2nd bcm, am I able to retain the side mirror dimming on my 2019?

    Fluids Change Time (Transfer, Differential, Transmission)

    Good Afternoon All, My 2019 is now at fluid service intervals, or a little past and needing to do a full fluids swap. Truck has 110k on it (lots of highway for work) so looking to start service. Truck is a 2019 Ram 1500 (new body style) with the Hemi (not etorque), 8HP75 transmission, and 3.21...

    SOLVED 2019 1500 with Front Suspension Crunch Sound?

    For anyone with this issue, ended up replacing both front and rear sway bar links and sway bar bushings, no more noise and ride quality has significantly improved. Believe this may correct the shock rub issue as well.

    Stock Front Shocks rubbing

    Had this as well as a popping noise in the front on my 19 with 102k. Replaced sway bar end links front and rear as well as sway bar bushings, no more noise and suspension is handling bumps better, which I'm believing is because of improvement of angle on shock compression. May not be your issue...

    Starter replacement?

    Take a look at this one. I just did mine around 3k miles ago following this. Definitely extensions and knuckle swivels.

    Stock Front Shocks rubbing

    I have the same on my 19 with 103k, both sides Just posted about it yesterday. I'm thinking possible worn sway bar end link in front. Might try a few hard stops from low speed with steering wheel full lock left and full lock right and see if you get any suspension noises.

    SOLVED 2019 1500 with Front Suspension Crunch Sound?

    Good morning All, Let me start by saying I read through the long thread on front sway bar end link issues, and this may very well be that, however, my wear on the front shocks and this substantial crunch sound I didn't find mentioned in the forum though so I'm hoping for some decent direction...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    The wiring is not underhood. I took the plastic connectors out that hold the factory hood insulation on in those spots, took some new plastic push connectors and shaved them down to fit in the middle of the lights (there is a mounting hole) and then attached them again with those, so no new...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Stripped bad paint on my RB40 GoRhino boards and coated it in bedliner. Swapped polished factory lugnuts that were starting to swell with black lugnuts. Painted front tow hooks and rear tow shackle red. Installed new Rigid ditch lights and KC Cyclone V2 lights for undercarriage clearance and engine.

    Key Fobs and LED interference

    For what it is or isn't worth. I've tried the lasfit flat, lasfit round, jdm astar brand (use them in other vehicles with great success), and diode dynamics (expensive ones) and all cause issues. All seem to randomly work for a while and they they start causing interference. I would say on...

    LED Cargo Light Options

    Here ya go https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081YJ7G81?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details. Most don't report fob issues with them. I had the ones you currently have and compared to these and these aren't near as bright. I'm actually going the other way so I have the diode dynamics on order for...

    3rd Brake/Cargo LED Lights w/o Interference

    Ok everyone, I know there are a good bit of posts about this, but i've gone down this path before and been led astray. I purchased the lasfit led (flat design) bulbs last year to swap out my only incandescent lights (cargo and 3rd brake). At the time everyone was saying there was no interference...
