What did you do to your Ram today???

[Gadgetech]

what brand PPF did you go with? Did you do it yourself?

XPEL, I have a guy who installs it for me. He‘s done about 5 vehicles for me.

Bed extender parts installed and a pic of the tint job. Front matched to the back and 70% on the windshield.

Do you know if the bed extenders work on the MFT? Great looking truck BTW

Looks great! How do you like the Winstin Outlaws, especially the height of them?

I don’t have the MFT so I can’t say for sure.

I love the looks and they seem sturdy. I had a lifted Gladiator with Rock Rail steps before this and by comparison, this is really easy to get in and out of. When I test drove the truck, it had the MOPAR step rails and those offered a lower step up height. I told the dealer to keep the steps and give me the $1k off the truck because I knew there would be a better aftermarket solution.

I finally got fed-up with the steering wheel volume controls. All my vehicles have had the volume controls on the left side and I have yet to get used to it on the right after a full year. So I figured out how to swap the rear steering wheel controls. Now I can change the volume using the left button and the channel/tuning with the right button!!!

Let's just say, it was a little more involved than I thought it would, but now that I understand it better, it might not be so hard for others to do...as long as you don't mind popping out the airbag and removing the steering wheel trim:


I made a thread here to post more pictures along with the steps I went through:

Nice. It drives me nuts that the volume is on the right. Who keeps their right hand on the steering wheel? Psychopaths, that’s who.

I don't think I've ever driven a vehicle with volume controls in the left. My Ram, my wife's 2020 Traverse, my 2002 Volvo S60, my 2017 Ram Promaster City work van all have volume in right hand side.

Lol, no kidding. Plus the main volume knob is only about a foot away from your right hand, so it seemed redundant to have the volume button on the right side too.

Honestly, I still have a habit of leaving my right hand on the arm rest when I'm cruising now that I am not driving a stick shift.

That's a nice rack! What brand is it? Does it work nicely with the tonneau?

It is an Adarac contour rack. The reason I purchased it is that it works with any tonneau that mounts inside the bed rails and also unbolts fairly quickly if you want to take it off.

It wouldn't surprise me if all FCA/Stellanis vehicles put the volume on the right. A Chrysler I had for a bit had the same buttons as Ram.

My experience with cars has been I have driven include Mazda, Toyota/Lexus, Subaru, Nissan/Infiniti, BMW, VW, Kia, Hyundai, & Honda/Acura. They were all on the left. Heck, it seems all Japanese and Korean cars have the volume on the left now that I think of it.

I was actually wondering the same about the bed extender parts as my truck has the ram boxes and the multigate. I already bought the extender parts tho, haha so I’ll let eryone know when it gets here if/how they work. I hope they do, or there’ll be some parts up for sale.

So, although it was another job that should've been easy but took way longer than expected ...

Story of my life - every 15 minute job turns into hours

Ask your friends to help ...

Great idea - but - All my friends are as old as me and even less healthy

But my kids are coming for a long-overdue visit later this month so I'll show them (only one - not my son - is mechanically inclined) what to do at least install the bed step.

This makes me want to wrap my truck hydro blue… it’s looks so good!!!

Thank you. Love this color. It was a long wait for the truck but it was worth it.

I would be the guy that would deploy the airbag!
Some things I know better than to touch! LOL

Bilstein 5100’s all around, MotoFab 1in rear spacers, ReadyLift upper control arms, 20x9 XD Hoss II 0 offset, KO2 35x12.5x20 all installed. Drives great and love the stance.

I’m into concave wheels right now, but if I went for a less aggressive wheel, I’d absolutely do what you did. That looks incredible
