Had some help in the garage this evening trying to find a front end rattle.

I took a little trip to the next town over and grabbed a Leer 100XQ for another killer deal, paint matched as well.

I also de-badged over the weekend and installed the new tailgate emblem. I found out I'll need to replace the whole sport hood upper plastic to replace the chrome emblems. Looks like I'll be shopping for overlays instead!! I'm thinking reflective black for the door handles, front RAM emblem and overlays.

I added some black flags to the lower front doors, but not sure how much I like yet. I had them on my Grand Cherokee and thinking they looked better, plus they blend in too much with the Maximum Steel Metallic.

I'll post pics once I actually get some. :cool:

Loving the Carven exhaust and the Maxtrac 2" reverse level coils. Rides great!

That would be a pretty nice find with the topper. You used to be able to find deals on them around here but a business started that buys all of the used ones up and then sells them for next to new prices. Gave up looking for myself.

Well, it's not what I did to my Ram today, but over the last 2 weeks.

Added black Gorilla lug nuts, ES Engineering stake pocket covers, AJT billet radio knobs, Luxe taillight tint, tinted the front windows, and installed Mopar Power Running Boards. Realigned the exhaust tips and gave her a coat of Griot's 3-1 ceramic wax.

With AlfaOBD added the power running boards to UConnect, enabled the tailgate ajar warning in the splash screen, and amber DRL's.

I think that's all I'm going to do. I don't need bigger tires or more power and I love the black beadlock wheels.

Now you need to do the wiring hack to keep your marker lights on all the time. The amber DRL's look even better with the hood scoop lights...

Offtopic here - but details on fitting a 35 in the spare location would be massively appreciated. Don't recall any posts on it.

Hey. So I left the heat shield. And grinned 1/8inch off the hitch. Just the extra metal. My tires measures 34.65 though. Even though it a 35x 12.5 is measure 34.65 and if a true 35 I would have to remove the heat shield.

Thanks. I'll search for that on the Ram-TRX forum.
This is the best post, showing how it's done.

I whish I could say I did this to my Ram today but my neighbor who talked me into this (Didn't take a whole lot of talking) installed my cat back Borla Atak system in 43 minutes! No lift just a jack.
He's done a hand full of Chevys but this was his first Ram.
I wanted to help more but being 64 yrs old I figured best thing I could do was stay out of the way! 🤣
i'll post a video soon.
