What did you do to your Ram today???

[Bufo]

Nice. I do camping also, pulling a TT so I went with the 20's instead of 22's for more sidewall. Are the tires rated an E?

I honestly haven’t even checked the load rating yet. (Only had the truck about 3 weeks) They are the stock highway tires. I will eventually change out the tires, probably go with the BFG KO2’s. I ran them on my last truck and was happy.

Added these matte black tow hooks last night when I got home from the dealership (had them check something out, which turned out to be nothing thankfully). Now just to wait for MOPAR to sell the fuel tank skid plate separately, and I will be able to complete the unavailable (at the time I purchased) protection group to my Laramie Sport. I installed the front skid plate, and x-fer case skid plate last week.

Got some good news today from the dealership. Went in a couple weeks back for the pedal recall and showed them my backseat. There is a blemish that has been there from day1, that I did not notice for a week or so after bring it home (late december purchase). I tried to clean it at the time, but likely made it worse.

They took a picture when working on the recall and sent it to FCA for replacement approval.

Approved!

Seat is on back order though, so will likely be a month+ minimum, but meh, fine with me as long as they replace it.

Good luck! I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but I noticed (very) minor blemishes on two of my door panels at delivery. When the replacements arrived, they look much worse...and I left the originals alone! Maybe they'll do better with your seat.

Installed the Ram 1500 Crew Cab 2019, Polished Stainless Steel Pillar Posts by SAA. I think they look pretty good.

Nice, did the hooks just bolt on or did u have to add brackets as well as cut plastic from bumper? Same here with skid plates, should be standard on all pick ups 4wd and 2wd.

Today.... Brought my 4-day old truck back to the dealer for the 4th time in as many days for "recalls".
Turns out they cant sell a truck with an open recall, and instead of doing the 2 recalls for PS and brake pedal they did the PS one 2 times...
Oh an on the 2nd visit they manage to dent the truck, so another service apt. in 2 weeks for them to pop the dent...

Not a great start, heh.

I'm right there with you man. Mine had a door ding at delivery but the deal was too sweet to pass up so they wrote me a "we owe" to remove the dent. Still haven't gotten confirmation from them on when they will actually do it......THEN the next day I got rear-ended by an unlicensed illegal immigrant from Brazil. The damage isnt too bad, probably replace the rear bumper, exhaust tips, and hitch receiver.

Installed my Undercover Ultra Flex tonneau cover along with the Bedslide 1000 Black Edition. Love the Bedslide already.

how much is the bedslide?

2019 Rebel...Today...installed the bug deflector and front window Mopar vent visors. It started raining just after I installed the vent visors. Will do the rears at later date.
Pushed the nose into the garage to install the bug deflector. The bug deflector took the most time of all the other upgrades.
Look closer, you can see the newly installed running boards and mud flaps. Mud flaps are Weathertech...even a caveman could install. Running boards installed in about an hour...plug and play, so to speak.
You can't see the Linex in the bed. Got it just about where I want it. Next, need to install the bed lighting.

which running boards are those?

Excellent choice! I am trying to decide between Bak flip or Undercover, if you looked at both let me know why u went with Undercover. My last truck had a hard fiberglass top which was too much of a hassle to remove and reinstall when I needed. An open bed or hailed anything taller than the bed walls, the folders are the way to go for sure.

Installed Westin protraxx 5 nerd bars today. Very sturdy, black powder coat to March black truck, iPhone camera broke so no pics, sorry.

I went with the Undercover because when it is completely folded up, it doesn't touch the cab. Also I liked the Ram Beast Projects video on it.

What did I do to my Ram today? Something not good.
When transporting a pallet of wood some of the green plastic wrap melted to my left exhaust tip and has now hardened. Does anyone know how I can remove the now hard plastic from the chrome? It is a fairly thin layer so I want to see if there are option before I carefully attack it with a razor blade.

You can try reheating it gently with a heat gun and seeing if you can peel it off with a plastic tool.

That's a great idea! I will give it a shot. Thanks!

I've done this exact thing with my motorcycle some plastic flew on to the exhaust... I used a torch and heated it slowly and gently peeled it off. Do as Riccnick stated...

Thanks for the input from your experience. I will definitely give it a shot.

The hooks just bolt right in, you reuse one of the bolts already in the frame and are supplied with the second bolt to each side in the packaging. You have to remove a really long bolt from the frame that has a stupid lock washer on it, required some ingenuity to get that bugger out. The plastic trim / space holder pops out once you remove the lock washers and nuts on it. I made sure to order the bezels that go in their place so it doesn't look half done once you finish the job. Skid plates were actually the easiest thing yet - bolted right in, holes were already there. The bugshield was more of a pain, as were these hooks.
