Hey turkeybird56, do you have 3.21 gears or 3.92?

With the stock size my gps (Google maps) was right on with my speedometer so no worries there. I knew that if I went to a 70 aspect ratio or bigger tires it would need recalibration
Wow... there is a lot to love here. I really like the badge in the tailgate. Is that custom? Do you have a link to it?
I’m also diggin the added light bar under the grill. Which one did you use?
Lastly, I have never seen a tonneau cover like yours. Do you have more pictures or a link to their website?
Great looking truck man. Kudos.

Had some Go Rhino RB10 steps installed. They fit very close to the body of the truck. Nice wide area to step on to.

I got them back in late June on AutoAnything.com when they were having a sale. I wanna say they were in the ballpark of $350 shipped.

I've ordered these (921) bulbs for the 3rd Brake Light and (2) Cargo Lights. Fingers crossed there's no interference, as it's noted that they're "CANBUS error free design".

I wish 3.92, but alas, bought off lot, 3.21. But the Red Beast sits 98.7% of the time, so def not a deal breaker. Getting 20-22 MPG on a highway trip with a Hemi works for da BOIRD, lol

Keep us posted in the install. Those lights are interesting.I found the connection point that RamVader used. I have the Limited with the bed lights so I do like the idea of them coming on with those lights and having the ability to turn on/off with the switch in the bed. I did go a little different route though. I went with these:
MAX White LED Rock Light
NOT made in China! The ALL NEW Professional Grade MAX LED rock light. High output. 100% waterproof. Patented magnetic mounting system. Perfect for hard core off roaders and professional rock crawlers. Brutally Tough. Incredibly Bright. Easy Installation *NO DRILLING REQUIRED!*luxlightingsystems.com
I liked these because they are magnetic and I can place them directly in the middle of each door. I got the lights with the 20' leads so I'll have plenty of wire to make a clean install. I have the Curt trailer harness in place already for my reverse lights so that will be my grounding point as RamVader also suggested. I'm going to use butt connectors to tie them together and have a single lead going to the starting point where I'm using the splice connector. The part I didn't understand at first was the sequential turn signals. Evidently he has them wired to his curt connector to activate on that signal as well. Or maybe I'm still miss reading that part. Anyway, once I think I'm done and tell the wife that's it, "I promise", then something like this comes along. Oh well!!

I Added extra LED bed lighting and LED Running board courtesy lighting with Amber sequential turn signal. I tapped into the factory bed lighting wiring for the white lights. So now the bed & running board lights light up when the door opens, tailgate opens, or when I press the unlock button from the key FOB. I ran wiring from the running board to the Curtis trailer wiring adapter that I used for the OPT7 tailgate triple light bar for the Sequential turn signal to work on the running boards.
Going to change the cargo light to LED next

Any tips on installing the sequential running board lights? I have a set in the garage, but waiting to install these, bed lights and tailgate light at the same time.
Also, do you have video of the sequential signal on the running boards?

Walked outside at 5:30 this morning with the intention of doing a full paint correction but it’s just too damn hot. She still got pampered with a strip wash, iron decontamination, another strip wash, clay bar, Mothers Chrome Polish, ISPA wipe down followed by Turtle Wax Seal and Shine. Slapped on the new AVS Aeroskin deflector. Now to go take a cold shower and drink a beer!

Well, my AVS Aeroskin lasted 24 hours. Another high heat day today and two spots at the curve of the hood began to separate. I pulled it off to replace and add more new 3M tape. It scratched up pretty bad in the process of removing the original tape even though I placed it on a soft surface. $80 in the trash. I’m ordering a bolt on AVS to replace it. The Aeroskin may work great for most but if you live where it hits 115+ degrees I’d advise against it.

Thank you.

Light is from Rough Country - https://www.roughcountry.com/ram-led-bumper-kit-70779c.html?find=2020-dodge-ram-1500-4wd-568910
they include the brackets. I have the DRL version and changed the wiring so they could only come on in Acc or RUN mode. Water fowler 41 has some great install videos

I hope those work for you. Alla has been hit and miss for me over my last few vehicles. If those don't work out, try LASFIT. They are great

The sequential lights require the white wire which is the white courtesy lights to have power in order for the sequential function to operate smoothly. See video attached with the door open when the white courtesy lights ( white wire ) have power to them.
When the door is closed and there is no power to the courtesy lights ( white wire ) the sequential lights don’t function properly. See video attached
I don’t want to drive with my white courtesy lights on all the time so I just live with the sequential not working properly
