Bighorn Mods

[5.7Hemi3.92]

I just wanted to share my mods. Best mod, thanks for the idea, guys, was the Hellwig anti sway bar! On stiffest setting, it keeps the box planted on the road during fast cornering. Second best was swapping out the stock 55watt halogen low beam bulbs for Osram Blue Plus 75 watt bulbs, they’re a white light light LED, and about a quarter brighter and farther reaching…the combo of brighter and whiter makes a huge difference in visibility! I’m going to install Bilstein 5100s front and rear to add more control soon. I was wondering if anyone had swapped out their high beam 65watt bulbs for 100watt Hellas…I’m a bit concerned it might be too much of a jump for the wiring/breaker? Not worried about being too bright as I’d just use them on the highway with no oncoming traffic, but don’t want to do any damage. Has anyone put 100 watt bulbs in their halogen high beams? Thank in advance for your input!

I have to agree, the Hellwig rear swaybar made Huge difference in my 21 qc 4x4 bighorn. I only put it on middle setting and is a night and day improvement. I also have bilstein 5100s.

Havent got the rear swaybar yet but so far I upgraded my headlights to oem leds and mishimoto fogs and oem led tails. Easy mod if your brain isnt smooth. Can be scary at first tapping into the bcm but well worth it.
12in uc5 screen, 7 inch evic, laramie center consol lid, oem power side steps, rc lift, rc bad mat, rc tonneu cover, linex bedliner, 35s, blacked out emblems and exhaust tips, passive entry including tailgate, directed smartstart and gps tracking. Tazerdt pin lock. Mevotech ttx uca and lca. Energy suspension sway bar bushing, suspensionmaxx links,
Next up I think I wanna add tow hooks (cant decide in regular black or red… truck is blue streak.), bed step, msybe new wheels, mopar rubber floormats. I would love shorter gears but thats outside of my diy capabilities, sound upgrade. Wireless charger, bed lights , the list goes on.

Use my list as your advertisement if you see something you got. Please let me know.

Regarding switching to 100 watt high beam bulbs, another concern would be the increased heat inside the headlight housing.

If you want quick sound upgrade and have the base audio, kicker key is litterally less than 30 minutes to wire up, no cutting stock wires, no wires to run, nothing else needed except a anc ch01 anc bypass harness. Cut the ch01 harness, wire speaker wires to amp, other side wire to speaker outputs on anc ch01 hsrness, even the wire color codes on the anc ch01 harness and kicker key 200.4 are identical colors. So no guessing which if front rear + - etc. If you do this, make sure you get the anc ch01 bypass, many dont have the power wire and ground. Then cut power wire(think its yellow on harness and run to the key amp along with fuse that comes with it , then the black ground on harness. Can wire all this up inside house etc and just plug in, takes couple seconds to install and remove. Can use the power from harness, since the power wire is going to the ANC, since anc is disconnected you can use that 30A power. The kicker key is 25A. No line output converter is needed, like level works great.
