What did you do to your Ram today???

I fixed my RC 2" strut leveling kit disaster.
Last weekend I had a disaster after spending 7 hours changing OEM struts to RC 2" leveling struts only to find out that my front was raised 3" and not 2" as desired. Contacted RC and started a return. In the mean time bought 1/2 inch wulf strut spacer and installed it instead to get some results and not to have wasted my time completely. This time it took only 3.5 hours to redo everything. On a positive note, I gained lots of experience working on suspension components.

What happened? Did they send you wrong P/Ns?
 
Finally got my tails and cargo light tinted. Came out better than I was expecting. Also done over the last couple months but not really picture worthy: installed the Hellwig rear sway bar, figured out a spot for my Scangauge II (cubby above the radio), switched from aFe intake to the Volant w/ Donaldson filter, and installed my GatorTrax retractable bed cover.
Damn that looks good. Wish I had the talent for this

Sorry to hear about your disappointment man! Certainly been there, and it takes a few days for the irritation to wear off ahaha. As for the Wulf spacer...is the actual spacer 1/2” or smaller, netting 1/2” of lift? It looks to be exactly what I’m going for to reduce the rake slightly.

Wulf 1/2 inch spacer is actually 1/4 inch plate that gave exactly 1/2 inch lift. OEM strut bolts are not long enough for anything bigger as non bolt on spacer.
 
Finally got my fox acoustic subwoofer enclosure and installed my JL Audio subs and amp. Holy **** sometimes you don't know what you are missing until it get it!!!! Needless to say I am ecstatic with the way this turned project turned out and can now cross upgrade sound system off my list. Just need to find the perfect rims so I can order them and the 33" Nitto Ridge Grapplers.
Yes!! Just did mine too with (2) JL 10" in the Fox acoustic box. Replaced all my interior speakers with Focal components. Sweet sound now!
 
Love these tail lights:

Please tell us how they were done...

They are painted with tinted clearcoat... however dark you want it will dictate the number of coats needed. Nice thing about using the tinted clearcoat is that light still shines through really well.

I need to do this too. I would want to have that fox box covered in a color to match my indigo/frost interior better though.
 
My Pedal Commander arrived today, after the very difficult 5 minute installation, I set it on Sport and went for a Costco run. Holy s!#t! What am incredible product! My driver's license is in serious jeopardy now! Does this thing come with a Get Outta Jail free card? Seriously, even on Sport mode, the RAM now feels like the Charger RT I love so much! (Wanted to buy a Scat Pack but it wouldn't pull my travel trailer or haul my dirtbike!) WOW, WOW, WOW! I now have the best of both! The lazy throttle response was driving me crazy, that is long gone now! Just pressing on the pedal as I have become accustomed to stock, that Hemi responds NOW, and with fury! At 52yrs old, I'm driving like a teenager! May have to dial it back until I grow up a little! If you are even considering something like this, go for it!! Especially now, they have 50 bucks off for xmas which makes it a great deal!
