What did you do to your Ram today???

Pic. Doesn't do it justice, but I gave her a pretty deep clean and detail then promptly spilled coffee in the cup holder. Love me a sunny day, clean truck, and cruising to some good music.

lol any time I get an open lid coffee like this I put a small hand towel (I keep many in that center console) over the top of them to avoid splashing, because it never fails. Especially right after you detail.

Too bad this ain't a slot machine.
So many 7's!

Missed opportunity for 77 mph at 7:17
Why not spring for 77 miles and 7 mpg with 77 miles left of range too? :ROFLMAO:
 
today... drove it around to my friend's place after closing shop to drop the front down.
couldn't find the tool so ended up supervising him installing dash cam on his girlfriend's car while showing my other friends how wrong the UCA angle is on my squatmobile.

then got tired of watching my friend taking forever to install the dash cam so i ended up routing all the wires for him in 10 minutes.
then did some spring rate and preload calculation to confirm my estimate (that i came up by measuring fender to ground) of 0.5" drop in the front should get me exactly where I want in terms of preload and ride height instead of just ride height.
 
He has an 2019… might be an issue on newer ones m. Works fine on my 20 as well

I just bought mine yesterday, so of course the first thing I did to it today, was CHARGE THE BATTERY, JUMP START THE TRUCK, and TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER for service. I feel like a fool for hoping my experience would be different than so many others.
 
Had to replace the starter a couple days back. 66,500 mi. Pretty easy change out, saved myself $400 or so by doing it myself. Happy about that for sure.

🤦‍♂️ sorry this happened, frustrating as he11 for sure.
 
Finally completed front bilstein 5100 strut install. Had a hiccup with upper ball joint not coming out with hammering first attempt but proper ball joint remover solved the issue easily. The hardest part was aligning the strut parallel to the upper mount for easy installation to line up the lower strut bolt. Was pain in the rear compressing the spring few times to perfect it. Circlip #3 for 1 inch lift which gives slight rake which I prefer also keeping the factory ride quality.
