What did you do to your Ram today???

Fishing line also works to get the door letters off and you don’t need to worry about scratches.

This and dental floss work great!

That's the plan. Just waiting for the emblems to arrive.

Anyone notice what page this is?

I had to do a temporary fix for the silver accents on the wheels i just didn’t care for it so i used TVD vinyl to cover them, also masked off the front end skid cleaned it with alcohol & used rustolium bed liner to black it out.

Looks are subjective but that looks so much better

curious how many miles you were up to for filter to look like that? Remind me when Ram says it’s due . .

18,000 km (11,000 miles~)
crazy right?

Replaced my tonneau cover with Truxedo Pro X 15. Pretty easy install

That looks awesome. Exactly the look i want. The dirt logic shocks are so damn expensive though for the minimal offroading i will actually be doing. Do you think the budget 3” fabtech which uses stock struts with spacers and the rear stealth shocks would still be a big upgrade to a ready lift 2” level with the control arms?

@Bignick75...Thanks!

Yes, getting the Dirt Logic coil-overs and rear shocks are overkill if you're not really four wheeling in the rough stuff much and definitely a lot more expensive. Fabtech 3″ UCA Lift with the rear Stealth Shocks is Fabtech's mid-level lift and probably a bit more comparable to the Ready Lift SST 3.5-inch lift system. The Ready Lift system is slightly cheaper and will give you a true 3.5-inches of front lift but no rear shocks or new ball joints not to mention the reduced front wheel articulation and degraded ride quality over road imperfections, speed bumps, pot holes, etc. (same for the Ready Lift base 2-inch system). I am not overly impressed with the Fabtech UCAs so will call it a draw between those and the ones provided by Ready Lift; neither are adjustable but both are an upgrade over the factory UCAs. For sure the Fabtech system is a big upgrade over Ready Lift's 2-inch leveling system but also twice the price of the Ready Lift system too.

Looks nice! I just put mine on a few days ago. Took about an hour putting it on in the dark at the same time I was making dinner

Did you read in the user manual about tensioning it? On Page 6 it shows "no less than 1/16" on the tensioner during the warmest part of day....but shouldn't that be coldest part of the day (when the cover shrinks the most)? That seemed backwards to me. I haven't tensioned mine yet, just put it on with how it came. Little lose, but not bad.

Took a trip on the interstate. Left a piece behind. I heard a pop as I was driving, this was the day after I put on my tonneau cover so at first I thought that was coming off. Glad I looked up here and noticed. Dealer is taking care of it.

Wow, first time I ever heard of that happening. Hopefully the piece didn't slam into anyone behind you!

Don't think there was anyone close at the time, but yeah no kidding. This was my first trip on the interstate (and was getting fairly windy that day). Otherwise I've been on highways a few times and just around town so far.

De-Sported

A little hair dryer heat, a 3M Eraser Wheel and a little Goo Gone for final clean-up.

Looks MUCH better without that ugly decal on the truck...GREAT JOB!

Looks much better. Still trying to decide if I want to remove the 4x4 decals from my truck before I ceramic coat it.

I would if it were mine...but, I am not a big decal kinda guy and like to debadge.

Man, had the same question about the tensioner. I tightened it a little and it seemed fine so I left it alone lol

I don’t think I’ll debadge entirely, I think I will black them all out eventually. Don’t think the decal would fit if I did that.

Glad I'm not the only one. I was wondering if this was one of those things where my logic is completely backwards. I looked at tuxedo's website and it says the same in their FAQ so if that is wrong they're at least consistent.
