Whats PPF? Im looking into getting AMP boards too and am concerned about damage.

Paint protection film. It's essentially a clear bra, practically impossible to detect when applied and does a good job in protection from nicks, chips & scratches.

However can be rather pricey depending on the shop installing it. To do my lower panels and rear fender, I got a quotes from anywhere from $900 - $1200. I ended up buying the factory black plastic covered aluminum one off a member for real cheap. I think that one looks really good, just wished it was a touch wider, but look good.

Hello - Are you stilling having slight vibration issue through your steering wheel when turning at low speeds? I have a 2021 rebel with 1K miles and I park in a parking garage everyday and when I turn left at under 5 mph at certain points of the turn I feel a slight vibration or know through the steering wheel. Seems to getting a little more frequent. When turning at higher speeds, no noticeable vibration. Not sure if you have had your truck looked at?

I'll join the club! Here's a couple of mine ('19, Level 2 equip, no ram box, no 12 inch, no air). I enjoy getting her dirty but boy, I enjoy getting her cleaned up too. You'd never think this truck has been mudding and to the dunes with how clean I try keep it.

Not many mods yet, Magnaflow muffler, AEM drop in, complete LED's, and a bunch of U.S Flag stickers (they're all flat black so really subtle against the Max Steel Metallic). Next, I want to do a bed cover, level, and Method wheels.

I absolutely love this truck, I can say it's my dream truck!

I think it is my tires. It's most noticeable when my truck sat for a week, but goes away as the tires warm up. I think the Duratracs with already aggressive tread on the edges are what's causing my steering wheel vibration at low speed turns, especially if they are temporarily flat spotted after sitting for a while.

Once I get them up to temp and they warm up and round out, the steering wheel vibration goes away.

Got my 2020 a few months ago and love it. Lots of compliments. Especially the matter black hood decal. I have a matte black side decal for over the rear wheel well that has Rebel done in pin stripe red. Haven’t put it on yet as I’m afraid of how it’ll look. I put 1.5 inch spacers on the wheels and I got say it sure makes the truck look beefier. It goes in for a 3” lift in 2 days. Stay tuned.
