Hello all! I have been scouring the threads for quite some time and there is a TON of information, but I find myself I have 50 tabs open and can't come to any real conclusions on what I am seaking so I figured I would create a post and see if I can solve my A.D.D issues with everything being under one thread. Appreciate any input!
I have a 2022 Ram 1500 Lonestar 4X2 5.7 Hemi in Patriot Blue. I have done some minor upgrades such as fixed running boards, 20" black wheels and blacked out emblems and exhaust tips. My list however, continues to grow and this is a rough draft of the order i want to do them in:
1) Passive Entry - Must have and will be doing this as soon as it cools down outside (North Texas).
1a) What are the common changes to make since I will have invested in an AlfaOBD?
2) Beefier exhaust - Suggestions on that deeper start up sound, but not so loud it bugs you while driving. Want that perfect start up and idle sound.
3) Leveling kit - What is the best, non-full suspension, kit for that perfect look?
4) New Wheels and Tires once the factory tires are done - Looking at find some 22" OEM Midnight Takeoffs from the 2023 Larmies/Limited - Any other suggestions or do I just stick with the 20s to save on cost? Tires will be more on size/look but also not crazy loud at highway speeds, no off-roading since it's a 4x2, just want to fill the space of the wheel well and not have a big gap after the leveling kit.
5) Also was thinking of trying to hit up the salvage yards around the area to find some LED headlights or a console vault and wireless charging that came in the Larmies or southwest editions.
6) What am I missing? I plan on doing most of this in the next 6-12 months.
Thank you for your feedback!
