So far its sitting on 20” Cali Summit wheels with 305/50/20 tires. 2.5 strut extension to level it out. 55% tints on windshield, 15% in the front with 5% in the rear. Has a Mopar topper. Maxliner in the interior. Hopefully tomorrow I will get running boards installed.

Which 2.5 struds did you use? I had a leveling kit but it was a big hit to ride quality. So I had to remove it. How is your ride?

Picked up the truck last week. Tomorrow the Sportwing chrome body molding is supposed to arrive and Wednesday the TruXedo ProX15. Looking forward to getting those on. Thursday is tint and PPF. Going with Suntek CXP tint 18% front, Spectra PhotoSync 65% windshield, Suntek PPF on front fenders, bumper ends, full hood and headlights. Total cost for tint and PPF is 2k. I've never tinted a windshield or done PPF before, but the South Florida roads and sun destroyed my other two Rams. Tint guy said if he tints the sunroof the glass will get super hot and possibly crack. No thanks to that repair bill. I'll post pics once these mods are done.

That recall flash takes all of 10 minutes, surprised they couldn't just do it with your oil change.

Yeah kinda didn’t know exactly what needed to be done, but a flash would have taken no time at all. I did bring it in on my home from work and was the last vehicle out of the service bay 15 minutes after they close (7pm), maybe that had something to do with it.

Anyway, I need the brakes looked at for some squealing up front and a caliper thump on the rear. I’ll at least get a couple annoying issues looked while it’s in for the recall.

Bought the from bodyarmor4x4.com honestly the ride didn’t change much they tires I can feel them slightly but no shaking and alignment feels like factory.

It looks like you removed the front air dam. Did you have the active air dam or air suspension? Did you have any codes thrown if you removed the active air dam?

Looks awesome. I would be interested in how much heat reduction you get from it. I only did the front of mine, left the back, roof, and rear stock. I am debating getting something done to get rid of the IR and heat. Not sure if I will notice it.

It's night and day.. I highly recommend getting everything tinted, and you don't necessarily have to go dark with ceramic

Got in the truck after the gym and it was warm with the roof shade open, instead of the usual 'louisiana burn your *** hot' lol.. granted the sun wasn't hitting my non-tinted windshield. Drove around with the roof shade open and could hardly feel any heat.

Easily the best money I've spent modding

Ordered a set of Revel links.. I'm gonna order the Daystar spacers, once I figure out what's the right set for a limited 4x4 without the ORG

For any of you guys with the Panoramic Sunroof and kids lol... just got back from a trip to Disney about 300 miles each way from home, needed to figure out a way to mount the iPad to watch movies for them to keep quiet so came up with this on the fly and it worked great hooked it up via Bluetooth and streamed movies the whole way. Who needs a $2000 dealer installed option
very cool idea, thats just what i was looking for, thanks for the idea
