What did you do to your Ram today???

[deeve]

JSCAN is similar to AlfaODB but something you can get on iPhones. I have never used Alfa, but from I understand you can do more with it.

Alpha does more, but Jscan is free.

Alpha does more, but Jscan is free.

JScan is free in that you can download it, but you do have to buy a $20 token that links your VIN to the app. One token=one VIN. Once the token is used on a VIN you have to buy another one to use on a different vehicle

I didn't know that. I downloaded the app, when the truck I ordered was being built, but it wasn't built right, so I didn't accept it. Never got a truck yet to try it on.

Sorry about the truck but good on you for not accepting it!

I first bought JScan for my Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. The app is MUCH more useful on the Wranglers than anything else. It would let you individual operate the front or rear lockers at any speed and any condition. Same for the sway bar disconnect. So far all I have done is enable the fog lights to stay on with high beams. I tried to set up AutoHighBeam but all it did was turn on the option in the CSM. I do not think it actually enabled it. I will probably get an older gen Android tablet and use AlfaODB.

The J is for Jeep. Other Mopars were an add on. I want the trailer surround, and it was built without it, and I was told it was not available now, but would be again in the future. Customer care said it would be available 2nd week of March, subject to change. It's not. They don't want my $83,000.

Gave a decent wash with the mitt & deep cleaned the interior. Added a second car seat base. Took the Yakima Overhaul HD rack off. Now it looks really weird to me without it!

Think I’ll probably sell the rack. Comes with a few Yakima accessories. Then I might take off the Vossen wheels sell them on the forum here also next month.

Do you have to drill, or screw into bed?

@HSKR R/T ...sorry, I didn't see you question earlier!

I have brief write up in my build thread if you're interested: Desert Dawg Ram Rebel Build

Cheers!

Well I added my switch panel to the truck today. I got a 3D printed mount for it; sanded it down and painted it; then wrapped the switch panel itself. If you’re interested, I posted a video on my Instagram how to install the panel and route the wires with NO drilling at all

Installed the Tuffy security console safe yesterday.

Installed the ESI Ultimate Tailgate Seal yesterday. It will help keep the dust out, but I see other areas that are open to dust infiltration. Might try some black caulk in those.

Took the Rebel on a 2000 mile spring break road trip. Despite my overall dislike for large vehicles, I love this truck and it road trips quite well. Also despite all the negative on the factory Nav I used it 90% of the time. Google doesn't do much good without cell service.

We spent several days at an Airbnb with some friends in Gatlinburg, TN. Then a night in Cades Cove in the Smoky Mountains National Park with the RTT. It rained most of that first day, but we got to ride horses through the park. I got Billy (the kid). We then came back through Bowling Green and stayed with some friends, and visited the Corvette Museum. I tried, but the boss just wouldn't let me bring home a Vette.

Sounds like next year will be the Rockies.

Awesome. Heading to Gatlinburg, TN this summer. Looks like you had a great trip.

Swapped to non-tow mirrors. I swear the tow mirrors have major blind spots on the passenger side.

I am so glad I'm not the only one who thinks this!
I can't see anything out of my passenger mirror!

There is definitely a learning curve.

Be careful with the black caulk, it may be too much for some holes.

Tire upgrade Nitto Recon Grappler - 275/65/R20. So far so good.

I love the look. Is your truck lifted at all? Does it have the Off Road Package? Level Kit? I have the same color truck and rims. Any rub when turning?
Thanks in advance.

Wow that’s surprising they came off so easy. Well to other people with 3 year old trucks like mine my tip might help. Yikes I don’t like those eraser wheels, I’ve seen too many people damage the paint and need to correct the spot the badges were in.

I debadge everything I buy and my truck had to be the hardest thing so far. I have no idea why. Tried wd 40, goo gone, 3m, everything. Finally got it but it took a bunch of elbow grease. And I don't care for the eraser wheels either. Too much to go wrong there. When dealing with paint, I always try to take the most delicate approaches possible.
