Out of the 2 original pieces the dealer removed the front one and left the rear piece and put liner right over it

Just a couple of things to note that I haven't seen mentioned before:

1) The Youtube video shows install on a truck with factory flares. My truck does not have them so I noted a couple of differences. You won't have the three nut clips to remove around the top. To get the one that needs to be added to the back, I used one from the front panel since it is not reused. Also you'll be short those 3 screws, so instead of one extra screw per side, you'll need 4 extra (part #6510175AA) for a total of 8. The dealer I bought from only sold them in a pack of 10 so I lucked out. Also the factory trim that gets removed and reinstalled is slightly different on a truck without the flares, so you won't be using the very bottom back hole for the wheel liners/trim.

2) I have the RamBox bed and had not seen anyone reference whether or not the wheel liners and procedure was the same. I can now confirm that it is all the same parts and process.

As a side note, I added Weathertech "mud flaps" at the same time and am happy with the way they fit.

Thanks to all for your insight so that I had everything needed for a smooth install.
Hi M0brando, i have the RamBox too, and wasn't sure if the liners would fit. Is this the correct Part Number: 68275911AB ?

Beware Moparpartsgiant hit me for another $14 shipping after the order was placed ($14 original shipping) or the order wouldn't be fulfilled. Still way cheaper than anywhere else I found.

Like @Evilemokid94 my BigHorn install was slightly different (as follows) than this otherwise excellent Laramie video described:

- Needed to buy SIX extra hex head screws, part # 6510175AA, $1 each, in stock locally
- Did NOT remove the rear inboard screw clip to shift it forward, since I re-used that mounting point to secure the rear backing piece (see next)
- Used the back half of the rear panel as described in the vid, but I reinstalled the screw at the inboard position for stability
- Reused a screw clip off the old front liner for the inboard center hole. Tapped it with a hammer to “lightly smash” it closed a tiny bit so it would stay put.

Other than that the video was spot on, and SUPER helpful. Liners in, took an hour or so.

I also have a BigHorn and just ordered the liners and 6 screws.

However, after watching the video again, I realized that if I follow all the steps I actually need 8 screws, correct?

For each side you need 3 for the wheel arches, and 1 for the inboard hole in the back of each wheel well.

Yes you need 8. I bought a bag of 10 from the dealer and had 2 left

If you need more screws they are .58 at the dealership. I used 8 additional screws in mine but my package from eBay included those screws with my purchase.

Thanks for the info. I’m bringing my truck in for the V61 recall next week, I’ll stop by the parts dept while I’m there and pick up some extra screws.

Let me know if you have any other questions. It was an easy install. Hardest part was lining up the holes

So they shipped the liners today and I didn't see any extra shipping charges added to the order. :)

I ordered from BAM wholesale, the shipping was ~$50 from OH to RI, but I've had good luck with them in the past, so it was worth it to me.

I tried several websites and shipping was between $75 to $150 and Moparpartsgiant was $17.

Yeah, that's cheap. I didn't check with them. It depends how close you are to the warehouse I suppose.
Correct and I checked the tracking and it shipped out today and delivery date is tomorrow.
