What did you do to your Ram today???

I installed a set of Timber Grove airbags on my truck. I looked at many different options but wasn't a fan of cutting the perch's off where the original bump stop went. These were direct bolt in, Took me about an hour and a half to install taking my time (no lift, Just the back of the frame on jackstands) Looking forward to hooking camper up and testing them out. The worst part of the job was I dropped one of the nuts to mount the lower mount to the rear and into the lower control arm pocket and the stainless hardware they include is very very nice until you try and stick a magnet to it LOL.
 
That's not hard to imagine in a drive through car wash. Those high pressure nozzles will get enough water in there.

Don't those boxes have holes in the bottom to let water drain out? My old S&B did
 
Burned the stock tires off already huh?😉
lol, getting close. 33k miles and they’re getting a little light on tread.
 
Swapped the Goodyear eagle street tires to a slightly more aggressive Goodyear wrangler workhorse HT. I wanted a more aggressive look without a serious off road tire , as I spend 99 percent of my time on the highway / streets. So far I’m happy with the change and hopefully they perform better in the rain than the previous ones.

Today installed the Mopar rear wheel well liners (Part number# 82216333AB). They are soft and thin HDPE plastic which makes the install pretty easy. You're not gonna yell or swear much I can guarantee that much. Also had a shop do a PPF on the front end. Quick note about the PPF if you have a Rebel. The protection film will only go on smooth surfaces, so for the Rebel crowd with the textured paint on the plastics and the metal bumpers it's not going on. It's just going to have to get repainted eventually. So what it ended up going on was the full hood, full fenders, headlights, the light pods on the mirrors. Also did the door handle recesses, and the lower bedside where the two tone black paint is. That alone was $3k on Long Island. But I had to get it done quickly because I drive on a highway that is notorious for construction vehicles and everything else in between just spewing rocks at you.

Here's a quick before and after:

My 3.6L with e-torque has given me as much as 22mpg.

I'm almost starting to think that the mile-per-galloninator in your truck is busted. 🤣🤣

I use Fuelly because I have never trusted the gas meter thing.
 
Got some custom emblems made for the truck they turned out really well super happy with the detail in the center tailgate emblem, deleted the RAM door decals, and custom dash emblem.
