Still finding a lot of people do not realize the differences.

We want all types of members. It is fine to be a member here no matter what truck you own.

But there is alot of confusion when you ask a vague question. There is a little bit of a challenge when speaking about 2019 to present RAM trucks.

So let's make this easy. Look at your trucks lug nuts. (Per wheel)

5 lug nuts...you got a 4th Gen or older RAM 1500

6 lug nuts...you got a 5th Gen RAM 1500

8 lug nuts...you got a Heavy Duty.

This site is mainly for 5th Gen RAM 1500. We do have a 4th Gen Section.

We also have a 3rd Gen section. 2002 to 2008
A 2nd Gen. 1994 to 2001 and a 1st Gen. 1981 to 1993.

If you have a Heavy Duty we have a sister site for them. WWW.HDRAMS.COM

Enjoy.

Cool info thanks. We had something similar for Tacomas, 5-lug vs 6-lug.
