    Michelin Defender LTX M/S

    I've had mine for ~27k miles. I've found them to be loud. Noticeably louder than my set of winter tires - michelin X-Ice.

    35s with no poke on a no-fender Big Horn

    excellent - great photo to note ... that visual on an 11.5 on the stock +19 offset.

    35x12.5R18 on Performance Orientated Lift - a Overview, Procedure, and Review.

    very helpful and informative. what's your take on this wheel/tire setup on a Big Horn without the flares? this shot shows some poke with them .... would a more positive offset not clear with 12.5" wide tires? does going 11.5" or 285 width alleviate this or am I off base?

    35s with no poke on a no-fender Big Horn

    Are 35s possible on a Big Horn (no fender flares) with no poke? By far, the most popular (for good reason IMO) setup I've seen for 35" tires is the Method 305s with a -12 offset ... mainly on Rebels. Like Shown. I despise poke and the below setup looks like it would on a Big Horn. Photo...

    Winter tire help

    Michelin X-Ice SUV 275/65/18 on Rebel 18” wheels. I tried to find some Nokians but had a tough time. I’ve had Blizzaks before but weren’t too impressed with them. I love my X-Ice on my wife’s car so opted for a similar set for the truck.

    Why aren't there a lot of canopies on trucks out there?

    I think it really depends on location. I'm in the suburbs of a big city ... most trucks you see are just alternatives to the large SUV and have open beds or tonneaus. But when I go camping, or go out to the mountains in VT or NH, you'll see the proportion of truck caps increase significantly...

    BEST Cap/Top out there...... RSI SmartCap ?

    any more shots of the lumber framing you have in the back? I'm especially interested on the fork mount. Is it for a mtb or road?

    Window Tint Install Opinion

    You shouldn't see 'marks' at any distance, to be frank. And yes - ceramic is quite good a heat rejection. I have 70% Xpel ceramic installed on my SUV and it's cool when the sun's beating down on your arm, yet you don't feel the heat you'd normally associate with that.

    Damn Trailer Bounce....?

    Just adding my experience here with my non-Air Big Horn. I recently got my Ram and haven't had a chance to do a long tow with my travel trailer. However, I have towed around the local streets with it to see how it does, check the brake controller and the new trailer steering. I was playing...

    My mostly chrome deleted, mostly badge deleted, Limited

    Love this thread. I also have a Leer cap on the way and think the Pormido is the way to go. Could you give a description of how and where you routed the wires from the mirror all the way to the rear camera? Also, I'm guessing it was hardwired to the fuse box? F66 switched accessory fuse?

    More truck bed hooks?

    I think there's a couple YouTube videos on the install as well. Best of luck.

    More truck bed hooks?

    You can add the utility rails as an accessory with its adjustable cleats. It comes included with the Bed Utility Group package. https://www.mopargenuineparts.com/sku/82215285ab.html

    Delivery Checklist

    Question for the folks here: How does you go about checking that the right axle was installed on the truck? In my case, the 3.92?

    Order Tracking

    It's the blindspot and x-path that's the main requirement for me. Between towing and potentially thinking about driving with a topper, it's certainly worth the wait for me.

    If it's in IL (anywhere other than Sterling Heights, MI), it sure sounds like it's done and shipped. Congrats!
