What did you do to your Ram today???

Installed Mopar Ramair intake and Mopar exhaust with 5" tips. All pretty east, but definitely would've been easier with a lift!

PIA to remove them?
can be. just loosen the bolts (two bolts on each tow hook), dont take them all the way out. then you push the tow hook from the front of the truck towards the rear. They will pop out. The bolts were really tight from the factory. gunna need an impact gun or a bar with lots of leverage.
 
Hellwig Sway Bar - I like (y)

Thinking about installing the Hellwig. I don’t anticipate towing very often, but I’ve heard it makes the truck a bit more stable in turns. The ride is already great and I wouldn’t want to do anything to change that. Can you give us your thoughts on how it’s affected your ride? Thanks.

The sway bar is awesome except the bushings are squeaky :ROFLMAO:- I ended up using the end links from my BDS kit insead of the supplied ones.... I need to find some bad *** grease...other than that it makes a huge difference- Im on the middle setting.

Buy it, it is an upgrade to your stock suspension and will ride better than stock. I have mine in the firmest setting. If I had to describe the feel, is it made the suspension feel heavier?!?! Hard to explain. You have to experience it.
 
I'll keep an ear out on mine then, just installed last week, thanks. That grease is super sticky, wear gloves when handling it, and if you don't WD40 or similar will break it up off your hands.

I heard they are notorious for that....oh well...It was def needed with my lift.
 
Still happy with the ride. Even happier with the ride in corners and quick maneuvers. Feels more planted with less rocking side to side.
I have a heavy truck, so I started on the middle setting.
 
Decided to print out the templates I made last fall for the RAMBOXes and use some old cardboard on one of my cutters to see how far off they were.
I remember taking photos and importing them into my CAD program. I got so busy and noticed that the other member had started selling these, so I kinda gave up at the time. I find myself wanting them, so I am going to go ahead and finish my set since I have more time due to the days off I get here and there. 2-days-in + 2-days-off, I never know what day it is. Today feels like Sunday to me and I know it is Monday ('cuz my PC said so) :)

Blade was dull, so I'll have to replace it before completing the rears.
Just need to skew one 1/8"-1/4" on one side and re-add a bit I cut off on the other side.
