What did you do to your Ram today???

[Tesla]

It is just the front sensor and not the rear? I ask because both mine said service and come to find out it was a special fuse issue that the dealer is ordering.

Yeah just the front one. Sometimes it’ll start working, then it’ll stop again. Just started happening over the last month and a half

Well that was a quick 30 hp upgrade. Took all of 5 minutes, with most of that time spent taking off and putting back the cover.
Gonna go smoke some tires, now...!

Rough Country tri-fold. Shipping was amazing. 1 day

Test setup of the "new to me" truck tent. Looking forward to camping this year!

Nice looking. Are they weather tech ?

yerp. bought the front and rear combo from WT on Amazon.

Added my rear bumper lights into the cargo/bed light circuit. Previously had them solely on the reverse light circuit via the trailer harness. Tapped into the bed light power wire and used a diode to eliminate any back-feed. Very handy being able to control them with the cargo lights as well as always coming on in reverse.

For those pesky tailgaters…

This looks great, one of the better bed light installs I've seen. Nice job! What light kit did you use and where did you tap power?

Thank you! I just pulled some parts together off Amazon (LED’s , wire , good 3m double sided tape) and soldered myself a kit so to speak. (I had to cut the strips into 3 pieces to account for the rail body mounts blocking the groove where the LEDs sit and join them with some wire).
Then I got some connectors of DigiKey and made a ‘Y’ harness to tap into the factory bed lights (which were a PITA to run the wires for btw). So now both of them light up as if from the factory.

(I still need to add some sheathing where the wires go into the bed holes)

Cracked the windshield, got a chip around 500 miles, now at 7400 and it cracked. Thankfully its in the P/S upper corner so I can live with it

That's why you have the chips fixed before they turn into cracks. Most insurance companies will cover chip repair at no cost.

With hockey season winding down, I have some time off the road to do a needed deep clean. First hand wash in months. The paint had so many black flecks that I then clay barred the entire thing. Now I need to touch up a few stone chips and do a complete polish and seal. I'm really disappointed with the powder coat on my Nfab's. Did not last at all compared to the last ones on my ranger. What should I coat them with? Bedliner? I'd have them redone, but the powder coater I use is out about a month on projects right now.

I might have put finding an ecodiesel on the back burner for now ha. Fuel prices have gone insane. I do love this truck and maybe I'll keep it a while. Now I gotta find a way to tell the Mrs. I need wheels, tires, and a lift.

I recommend Line-x-ing the steps... re-powder coating will just yield similar results in my experience. I always have problems with powdercoating lasting up here in our salty northeast... i know a couple guys who have had theirs Line-x'd and they have lasted with no problems... (as long as the prep is done right.) if/when it happens to my current set, that is my plan.

I'd like to do this. Do you have pictures of how you wired this up?

Oh also the passenger side bottle holder showed up

Thanks for the response. Maybe I'll give that route a go. They look terrible right now, and stick out like a sore thumb.

Get the Husky mud flaps. Will protect the road debris from hitting the steps. Also helps keep rockers from getting damaged.

Solid point. I did have flaps on my ranger, but that was also lifted with bigger tires and -18 wheels. They threw rocks terribly, but maybe the flaps did more than I thought.

I did not take any pictures of the wiring but it’s super easy to do if you have the OEM bed lights (I installed and activated them myself using AlfaOBD). I tapped into the power wire (brown/white) for the passenger side bed light and ran a wire with a 1N4001 diode to the power wire for the bumper lights. Make sure the stripe of the diode is pointing towards the reverse lights so that they don’t back-feed and cause the cargo lights to come on when you put it in reverse.

Definitely on this forum. I've seen that sticker before. Even some talk about people think it was a sticker for the LA Rams. Think it may have been in this thread but don't want to sift through 1200 pages

What did you do to your Ram today???

I don't want to offend you, but I don't care for Texas. 😬 Plus, Texas doesn't have this.... Not offended at all 😁
