What did you do to your Ram today???

[HEMIJAKE]

I have a pneumatic tool that is essentially a giant spinning eraser for removing adhesive without harming paint. That being said, I did not have it when I removed the sport stickers from the bed. I literally just used a construction pencil eraser on it and followed it with goo-gone then soapy water. The pencil eraser works wonderfully.

I've heard people have good luck with the spinning eraser thing. I just never thought I needed one. All the stuff I've done before I've done by hand fairly easily. I don't know what the issue was, but it was a real bugger.

I debadged my tailgate the day after I brought truck home from dealer. Badges pulled right off with minimal residue that easily wiped off with some adhesive remover. I used the 3M adhesive remover. The dealership badge was harder and I used the eraser wheel on that.

I did the dealer badge (just vinyl) right after I got it. I just used a hair dryer and a plastic credit card to get it moving. No issues there for me. The badges however, went from a one beer job to a 6 pack job real quick ha.

My sport stickers came of with a finger nail and a little tug. All one piece. Maybe it was because I did it in the middle of the summer in Texas and that's pretty much the same as using a heat gun.

Put my stock wheels on a little early for winter. I have a 13hr drive to Jack Daniels. Maybe it will get a little better mpg.

Part of me wants to do the 2/4in drop and run these year round

Looks F'n gorgeous!!! makes me miss my truck when I was dropped in the back like that.

Installed the 3.5" infinity reference speakers in dash. Wasn't an earth shattering difference, but definitely cleaner highs now. Have some CDT 2ohm 6x9s for the doors, but those will have to wait for another day.

I feel the way about the 3.5" speakers. It wasn't earth shattering, but it is clearer. I have to go up a little higher on the volume now too, but oh well it sounds clear.

My new brackets showed up today from Shifts and Grins! Time to cram by 30” DD light bar in the front of my truck!

Nice I just got my brackets in too. looking to install a cheap amazon light bar just for my trip to Breckenridge CO next month.

That’s strange that both of you say that, because I would define the change as significant. I wonder what the difference is?

Not really sure. I was curious if it was polarity at first, but I reversed it and didn't notice a difference.

It sounds like you really want those drop springs back on. I called Maxtrac on the phone before I ordered my springs and had a 15 or so minute conversation with the head guy there. Maybe try calling and talking to them about the problems you experienced?

This is another situation where I wish somebody on here was close to me so I could hear the differences in person.

I just thought about something. The audio source’s quality makes a big difference in the overall sound. To get a good view of changes you would need the same audio clip before and after to get a full view of the changes. I usually use an alpine test track.

HAHA I've thought about it. I think what really got me to lift my truck in the front is because my truck has the amp steps, when I had it dropped I had a few times it made contact with the edge of the concrete step at my house. In my mind, I was like man these are meant for lifted trucks and it looks odd having a dropped truck with amp steps. LOL oh well.

Yeah I wish I had someone close by that had a better experience then I did. I recall reading a post that volume of the speakers got much louder after the install. That's why I initially did it. I felt like it wasn't loud enough.

Started removing the oversprayed parts from my rebel (ish) front end.

It will look better with the ebay “trx“ grill and some more white lights

Want to sell me the white grill? Is it OEM? Don’t need the RAM letters. Send me a PM.

Thanks to the forum and @Waterfowler41 for this! Looks good with the Flame Red

Pain in the **** but it’s 40 percent done. Bracket didn’t fit like I thought as my light bar is a little wider then that is recommended. I’ll have to drill out some holes for the bottom screws, wire up the light and then find out how install the top screws on the grill. That’s the hardest part.
