    I am a victim of physical abuse by my Ram truck...

    So those plugs just stay in there(once the silver button is screwed off) and don’t move when the door is locked and unlocked? That seems next level……

    I am a victim of physical abuse by my Ram truck...

    I was hesitant to post about this situation. But I, too, suffer from CRAP. (Chronic Ram Arm Pinch). It’s embarrassing, (my wife says pigeons would have learned not to rest there by now. ). It’s unsightly (I have little bruises on the inside of my left arm), and very dangerous; I smacked...

    New Ram Owner - 2019 vs 2021?

    I've had a '19 Laramie and recently switched to a '21 Limited. The differences for me came down to features. I loved my Laramie and it was trouble free for 92000 miles til I sold to my own sister. The Limited has all the stuff I wish my Laramie had, but I'm already experiencing issues with...

    Sorry, another Multi function tailgate question !

    I've had that happen with mine a few times, as has anyone else whose tried to use it. I just use a firm palm to the upper corner to assure a good close. It took me some getting used to the sense that it is somehow flimsy, especially compared to my old non-MFT tailgate. However, when folded...

    Dumb question- 4 Auto

    Good thread. I can see using 4 Auto more regularly now when I know I'm going to need that quick acceleration in situations that will especially challenge traction. I installed the Helwig 7709 anti-sway bar a few weeks ago and found that the inside rear wheel lost traction a lot more easily in...

    Air suspension service immediately

    1C6SRFHT0MN511093. Window sticker said ORG, too, I believe. It certainly could have been messed with by the original owner (I bought mine CPO from a dealer). I didn't take pics but the measurements on normal are: LF: 20.7, RF:21.3, LR: 23, RR: 23.5. I never measured pre-repair job but can...

    Air suspension service immediately

    So going out this beautiful Saturday AM to measure my truck's height at each corner at different stated heights, here is what I found: Starting at OR2 and measuring each corner from the center of the wheel to the center point of the bottom of the wheel well, there was uniform lowering...

    Air suspension service immediately

    Great guidance. What I don't understand is what would happen if I were to put in OEM links back on (They are quite easy to pop on and off standing next to the truck). Because when I watch the installation video from Revel, it seems to imply that there is no need to readjust any settings or...

    Air suspension help! Settings off?

    OK. That was almost too easy to pop those links off! And they'll stay there when I pop 'em back on? seems sketch. I don't understand how, if I put the links back to original, how do I get the level back without the compromise to the ride quality. It was fine before and I don't think either...

    Air suspension help! Settings off?

    I would love to do that but would require a mechanic to work with me on performing the actual experiment. (Unless removing the links and replacing them is relatively easy without a lift). Its also Certified Pre-Owned, so it was sold to me by a Ram dealer (1000 miles from where I live) and the...

    Air suspension help! Settings off?

    Yes. I think you’re on the right track with aftermarket links essentially confusing the system and needing to experiment. However, finding a mechanic with the expertise and willingness to work with me on this has been elusive.

    Air suspension help! Settings off?

    So even if I confirm that the links are aftermarket and they level the truck, how would I/They adjust the truck's settings/sensors to ride normally again?

    Air suspension help! Settings off?

    Here's another link from a while ago that includes some pics of the links and some prior suspension/Tire/Wheel issues with this truck: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/tires-22s-with-level-saga.54856/#post-783960

    Air suspension service immediately

    Yes, Aero on the freeway (and even around town sometimes) is normally just fine. Would an aftermarket level/links confuse the system and have it compensate to the wrong levels? I'll take some measurements on level ground and post asap. Thanks for the reply! (BTW: What's "aad?"

    Air suspension help! Settings off?

    I don't have the chops to do real work myself. I installed a Hellweg Anti-sway bar a few weeks ago in the rear, but that was pretty simple. My "seat of the pants" assessment is that it simply rides like crap except in "off Road 1" around town, but that won't let me go over 45MPH. Except for...

    Multi taligate

    The RAM letters look cool, for sure, but the tradeoff was worth it for me (since the '21 Limited wouldn't have had the cool RAM logo on the back anyway. And yes, I've heard there are some hard Tonneaus that will fit, but they tend to be expensive and I was "repurposing" the one from my '19...

    Air suspension help! Settings off?

    '21 air suspension feels like all the height settings have shifted downward. Toggling down to the lowest setting puts it in "Tire Jack Mode" and all the various ride settings feel like they are one below what it says. The thread below chronicles the ongoing saga. Here's today's update to...

    Multi taligate

    I have the MFT and absolutely love it and will never have another truck without it. Its like a fifth door and makes the day to day usability of the bed (for me) much easier. I do not use it for heavy loads, however, and I primarily use it as a daily driver. The doors feel somewhat flimsy, but...

    Air suspension service immediately

    After 10 days at the first shop, they said they couldn't finish the job and it had to go to Ram. They pressurized the system tank and let it sit through the weekend. The various heights were in line with specs, they said. HOWEVER: The truck rides horribly! It basically feels as though all...
