What did you do to your Ram today???

nothin fancy today.
oil change, swapped out 2 tires because they got tumors on. Good thing I have 6 in total but bad thing is i have no more spare. rotated the other two.

Got rid of another 50lb of Alaskan dirt from the truck. These are basically cemented into a slab on top of my RCI tranny skid lol i'm sure there are more.
 
Received my Tungsten last night. Got up at the crack of dawn this morning to clay bar the paint and then put on ceramic paint protection (CU.UK 3.0). It was a very long day (9 hours), but it looks fantastic and was well worth it.

Now go get some PPF on that front end before the rocks chip it to hell.

Driver side done. Was hoping it wasn’t cracked like the passenger side but once I pulled the heat shield I frowned. I forgot how quiet this truck is without exhaust leaks.

BD Diesel?
 
Rechecked torque and greased the APOC rear control arms and track bar, and core 4x4 rear end links. Have been hearing a knock or pop from rear end since install of the control arms. Everything was good, so not sure what sound is

after the weekend of fun with those go fast in the desert Dodge truck guys and a day trip in Mojave with my own group and a week's of night time condensation, my truck was nasty. So i gave it a good rinse and took the opportunity with no spare tire in place to fully rinse the underside of the truck where the spare was. Much cleaner now.

Also fixed my NH Overland air compressor mount. It was held down by one bolt and sitting on the fender liner for about 200 miles because the hardwares rattled themselves off and decided Mojave is where they liked more than my truck. Not NH's fault, but my own. I was sending it a lot more harder this time than before, and I didn't apply threadlocker to the bolts like I usually do.

Last of driveline fluids swapped. Avoided the overpriced OEM pan/filter and went with the cheaper down the road filter replacement using PPE trans pan.

While I waited on the trans to cool down enough to check fluid levels.. swapped in Metalclocks bump-stops that I had sitting on the shelf for a while now.
