What did you do to your Ram today???

Installed the Ram cast aluminum non-slip textured off road running boards on my 2021 Rebel.

Install Note: Installing these same boards took my brother hours and cussing on his 2019 Big Horn. The 18 studs were coated/clogged with paint he had to clean them all with a die. The instructions say to remove the paint with a wire wheel and coat them with a rust preventative after.

Ram must have adjusted the paint nozzles or something for 2021 just the very tip of the front couple of studs had a bit of black paint on them. All were coated in primer. I was able to install them with no real effort by hand and tighten with a socket wrench. The whole job took 1 hour.

SO MUCH easier getting in/out of the truck now!

A little more dechroming.

I'm not sold on the Sport hood bezel overlay. The beveled edges of the chrome are still visible, which I'm not sure I like. I'll see if it grows on me. If not, I'll replace the bezel with the OE blacked-out version.

Just waiting for the black tailgate 4x4 to arrive.

Looking good, the overlay doesn’t look too bad. Find any good deals on the sport hood insert?
 
Got started on the ceramic graphene process. Did a decontamination wash, ironX, and also clayed the entire truck. Also removed the off road stickers on the bed before doing all of this.C97DB612-AF72-40EC-B252-F3F952EFFE79.jpeg

I noticed the same thing installing boards on my 2021 vs my 2020. Much easier with no need to clean the threads at all.
 
Definitely looking forward to the next videos! Been eyeing the moderate b2 for awhile now

The truck has been sitting for a while but finally had the chance to take her out today and let the Hemi breathe a little.
I made a more detailed video of my B2 Fabrication oval exhaust for those who wanted to hear it. There's nothing like some time to yourself, taking your truck for a drive and just enjoying every minute of it

 
Ugh...its 35 degrees and I still didn't wash the truck for the last 2 weeks. Don't know about you guys but as much as I like getting dirty, being clean is so much better. Just iching to get out there and wash it...but not taking it to the car wash...to get swirl marks.

Pics for attention

Had 35’s installed today. Had to do the fender mod up front.

Truck looks great! Did you apply the Adam’s graphene to all the plastics as well??
Applied it to all exterior surface. Paint, plastics, glass, even on the tonneau cover. On the plastics it gives them that deep dark rich black look
