What did you do to your Ram today???

View attachment 183361


OCD got the best of me.. can’t stand water spots on glass or the mirrors and some time to kill so a bit of polishing and glass coating all is well. All 5 windows except the windshield (thats for another day).

I‘m with you. Water spots on glass annoy me to no end. A clay bar works wonders on glass too.

I remember the days when I was bothered by little things like those.

The first time my eldest child wrote her name on the fogged up window, I almost blew a gasket!

Now...3 more kids later...as long as there isn't a rip, a break, or a dent anywhere, I just smile and wave.

Yep that was my original go to did that about a month ago and wasn’t cutting it that and I had some graphene cc that i got on the window when i was treating the trim that also needed addressing.
 
Uconnect 4 software and map update USB drives came in. Directions say that it takes like 30 minutes each to do. Find some time to do that this weekend.

Also got my used Mopar RamBox bed divider / tailgate extender. Found a deal locally. Used the knock off bed extender hardware from Amazon and it fits / works just fine.
 
Not today but last night (Friday Night... pushed passed midnight so I guess count as today too)

My thoughts regarding the upgrade posted in my build thread

Need one of these for my wife, how the heck does she get foot prints on the dash???

Ahhh, every time I hear about people riding in a vehicle with their feet on the dash reminds me of this X-ray of a woman who was doing exactly that……………..and then was involved in an accident.

That’ll teach ya! Sheesh. 😬

Set up our ‘23 the same way our old ‘19 was. Swapped factory coils and shocks for ORP coils and Bilstein 5100s on all 4 corners. Front set to clip #5 with the ORP coils. Gained exactly 1” lift on rear and 3” lift on front as expected. Rides and looks great. I prefer the bilsteins to the factory shocks. Factory shocks and coils (all 4) are for sale in the sell thread. Definitely worth the $600 upgrade, although the install without a wall mounted spring compressor sucks. I threw my hand held spring compressors in the dumpster so I’ll never be tempered to ever do it that way again. Next upgrade is tires. Had 34x12 ridge grapplers on old truck and trying to decide what direction I want to go with these.73777480114__099D9FCF-1EB7-45E5-B47C-DCE83539E08A.fullsizerender.jpeg

That’s a great recommendation. Falken tires have come a long way…I like them. Ran a set of the AT3s on my work truck and they performed great. I bet the new generations are improved even more. I’m thinking about trying out the Falken RT01 on this one. The price for a set of 285/55/22s for the factory wheels at discount tire is really good.
 
Replaced my Rough Country steps with Go Rhino RB30 Slims. Just wasn’t digging the steps. Would look a lot better on a lifted truck IMO.

Also added window deflectors.

RT01 should be good too.
for me it's always AT3W or now AT4W
