    Cap/topper options

    Leer with some added benefits.

    I guess I better get a cap. I miss throwing stuff in the back of my SUV!

    It really is so dependent on what you do with your truck. I couldn’t have lived with a topper on my 4th gen, but my needs have changed. Now with the way I use my truck, I can’t imagine being without one. I just one day realized that I was often loading things that wouldn’t fit under the...

    What specifically do you want to know? I’m happy to share anything that helps.

    TRX in a single stall garage?

    Why would the doors be an issue? The TRX is only wider at the fenders and the wheels isn’t it? Seems like you’d be fine getting out of the truck if you can roll it in.

    What's in/on your bed?

    On the bed is a topper with roof mounted storage, and in the bed is a modified bed slider/extender equipped with a home built adjustable divider.

    What's this release handle for?

    No no no no. It’s the pull start for when the battery dies. If you don’t believe me, disconnect your battery and go yank on that thing. But please, for the love of god, call me first so I can come record a “how to” video for YouTube. Will drive anywhere in the continental United States and fly...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Yup, gonna need some more information here. This has the mod juices flowing and leaves me questioning what sort of crafting I’d have to do transplant this or something like it onto my Leer cap.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Put my sliding bed to work getting some freeze damaged pool heaters back on line, repairing control issues on some others, and then installing a salt chlorinator at another pool. More than half of the swimming pool work I still do is diagnostic in nature, so I don’t often get to load the bed up...

    How to get concrete off a trucks paint

    Even just the fumes absolutely will oxidize unfinished steel or aluminum rapidly and will discolor stainless steel and chrome. Automotive paint seems to tolerate at least short term exposure pretty well. I’d rather not dwell on what it does to an expensive pair of quality leather work boots...

    Apple Car Play - Truck Speed - Waze Question

    “They don’t think it be like this, but it do.” :) The truck changed Waze rather than Waze changing the truck. I eventually recalibrated.

    How to get concrete off a trucks paint

    This is going to sound horrible, but I used muriatic acid for swimming pools right out of the bottle to get pool plaster (which is white portland cement mixed with marble dust and a calcium cure agent) off one of my company truck’s paint years ago. I also used it to get a rust stain off of my...

    Device not supported

    It’s actually pretty easy. The center console comes out with just some minor trim removal, removal of 6 fasteners, and a couple of harness plugs. Once out there are two long pieces of trim that snap off and then you remove a housing assembly for the CD player and media hub. The hub itself has 3...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    They’re Fuel Nitro 6s in matte anthracite. I think I shopped wheels for two weeks before deciding on them and am very happy with my choice. http://www.fueloffroad.com/wheel/12109/fuel%2D1%2Dpiece%2Dwheels%2Dnitro%2D6%2Dd668/?finishID=277&lugs=6

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I appreciate the complement and don’t think I haven’t been paying attention to your truck as well! No truck pics on my Instagram, but I have a thread in the “members trucks” section here. https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/my-mostly-chrome-deleted-mostly-badge-deleted-limited.21764/

    After air dam delete yesterday, I started looking through some older pictures and comparing them. From when I bought it to this latest iteration, the transformation seems extreme. I’m sure it’s not for everyone, but I prefer the new version.

    Device not supported

    Well I finally got around to pulling the center console and replacing the media hub after getting the “Device Not Supported” message again. This seems to have resolved the issue in my truck at least. It’s nice to have CarPlay back too.

    2021 Limited 4x2 with Air Suspension and 2" Leveling Kit

    Pictures are needed to reach this thread’s full potential. But...Since misery loves company, maybe I’m just seeking validation of the effort I put into my Limited. It could be that.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Removed the plastic air dam and then repositioned the front plate holder 2” higher because the damn thing looked too low. It’s funny to me that I never gave that front plate a second thought and now it’s all I see when I walk up to the truck. I’m seriously considering just dumping the front...
