Hey everyone,
small picture sample of what all i have been up to. Still waiting on my carbon shocks but the itch to start messing with this truck is getting to me.

I have a 2022 ram 1500 quad cab 6'4" bed.

This is after adding the 1" bora spacers and deleting the air dam.
I did not have to trim my studs and my active air dam has been un plugged for 2 weeks with no fault codes.

This is a picture before removing the factory mud flaps and making my own.

This is after. The front ones will end up needing to be remade. They are just a tad on the short side. But the big thing is they keep mud off the door handles.

These are what they turned out to look like. I could not find a set i liked and have the tools and ability to make some myself.
The outside of the mud flaps are level. The driveway I was parked in was not level so it kind of makes them look crooked.

carbon shocks finally showed up and installed. I will get more photos tomorrow. This is a pretty close to level up front and no height change out back.
Also did a tool box that fits under the bed cover out back.

This is what the truck looks like as of now. I set the ride height up front to be level and we will see what it settles too.
Ride quality on road is a bit stiffer than stock which i am okay with. On gravel roads at anything over 25mph its butter.
If anyone wants info about my carbon shock set up let me know.
Next tire size will be 296/65R20 which is a 35.1" x 11.6".

I like that bed box, where did you find it?

I found it online and measured my bed 3 times making sure it will fit under my bed cover. I almost ordered it online but, when I got my truck bed linex, the linex owner was a uws and weatherguard dealer. He also got me a hell of a deal. I was worried about ups/fedex destroying it if I shipped it to my house.
I paid $530 cash and I didn’t have to worry about getting a damaged box.
