What did you do to your Ram today???

[Fishwiz]

How does it ride? I do a LOT of highway travel, as in 3300 miles in a year. How loud are these? Any drop in fuel economy?

3300 is alot of highway miles???

Red towhooks.

Can you post info on your amber lights at the top of the grill. Those look great.

I am going to adjust them a bit and separate them a bit. I set them up the way #waterfowler41 had it in his youtube video with relay.

How do you like them? Any issues getting them installed? I am really leaning towards installing a set of these for the extra attachment points and to fill in the rear stake hole. I'd like to hear your thoughts on their installation and practicality. Thanks.

Started wiring the LED daytime running lights.


The two top off road lights are DRLs + flood lights.


I also added a LED light bar along with blue LEDs that are mounted inside the grille guard.

The blue looks cool, but I imagine that would quickly get some negative attention from police, right?

Ride feels same as stock to me. I noticed more noise on the highway but not annoyingly loud. I drive 90% city and I noticed about 1/2 MPG drop after my first fill up since I installed the new tires. I am experimenting with different PSI after each fill up to see if I can improve MPG. I really like the look and the handling of the new tires. The truck has a more aggressive look and I get a lot of compliments on them. I am very happy with the new tires so far. I hope this helps

I installed Train Horns on Ram Vader!

Since I changed my tires to a larger size, the factory spare tire was worthless to me. I wanted to see if I could install and on board air system with a 5 gallon air tank and VERY LOUD and large Train Horns in that space without removing the heat shields. I went with the Kleinn Problaster HK9 - 150 psi System with the demon 730 train horn kit. I also decided to upgrade to the ultra blastmaster valve upgrade. The blastmaster valve upgrade gives each horn its own solenoid with a half inch airline to each horn making them even LOUDER. I figured what the hell, go big or go home! I love the saying on the box that the train horns came in. It states “ Too loud? Too bad! “ Holy ****, these horns shake the ground. They are so LOUD! The instructions stated not to mount the air compressor upside down due to overheating. So off to Lowe’s I went and bought some metal and brackets and made my own mounts for everything. I am not a welder so I went with the bolt on method. I used nylon locknuts everywhere so nothing should come loose due to vibration I spliced into the factory horn wire. I wired The air compressor pressure switch and Train Horn solenoids into my trigger 4 Plus 30 amp switch # 1. That way I can turn them on or off as needed. I still have just the factory horn when the trigger switch # 1 is off. I also ran the air filter for the compressor into the driver side ram box. It worked out perfectly because there are grommets at the bottom of the ram boxes. I just removed the grommet and ran the quarter inch airline and screwed on the air filter. Now the air compressor will have clean dry air all the time.

Got a deal for a bed step off Facebook Marketplace for $200 so I installed that today.

Here you go! The video does not do justice as to how LOUD these train horns are.

Wow. That's great... Nice deep tone too.

I notice they're pointing backwards? Do they sound similar in front of the truck and to the rear?

I pointed them backwards to keep water, dirt, bugs, mud, etc. out of the horns. I also pointed them down slightly so if anything did get in there it would run out. The sound is very loud all around the truck. The ground literally vibrates if you’re standing near the truck

Took some pics behind the SAC Museum. They are doing a two day indoor Mopar show and I have my 66 D100 in the show. Participant parking is in the back, normally off limits to public.



And my D100 got prime parking spot

So how did it tow? Any problems?

Gave Meguiar's hybrid ceramic wax a try. Pretty easy to use. Can't speak for longevity yet but it sure does smell nice!

So far no, I did have a cop drive by me and give me the 'nice truck' look but nothing negative. The blue lights were not supposed to be blue, they were supposed to be an 'ice blue' (more of a cool white) color like the LED strip under the headlight . They are cheap and I don't plan on keeping them.

I was more concerned with getting the wring, taps, relays and switch sorted out.
