What did you do to your Ram today???

[1BADRAMLIMITED]

Fog lights are DD SS3 sport fog lens, inner cubes that I just moved from the ditch light position are the DD SS3 pro sae driving, light bar is the DD 30” driving lens

would you recommend the ss3 pro driving? ive been looking for a new a pillar light that gives me more throw and a little width but only so much i can see on youtube to help me pull the trigger

Highly recommend the pros over the sports. When I mounted the Pros on my hood mounts, I aimed them to be just outside of my light bar. When aiming, I would block it with cardboard to see where the 30" bar ended and the single pro felt as bright as the whole light bar and just the right size for my use case which was a further throw light for deer on the long empty Montana highways. They are super bright and now I'm wondering if I will replace them another set of pros or SSC2 pros, or get a set of the max brightness and put those in the bumper and the pros back on the hood

I will say that they are all on the same switch so I haven't compared just having the SS3s on vs just the light bar. I also have the halogen headlights which are as bright as an iphone which doesn't help.

I added 2 pics from tonight, 1 with just headlights and fogs, the other with my setup as of now. I have the 3 in like a Mickey Mouse pattern with the SS3s just above and outside of but touching the bars pattern

Thanks for the input!

I think it would be sweet to leave the setup as is and add the ss3 max back up to a-pillar position!

That's how you know this guy off roads, didn't even wash that puppy first!

I kid, looks way better than it did. I did a little slow parking lot curb job on a Scat Pack Widebody I had, turned too tight. Man it made me so mad, car only had like 2k miles. I found a legit wheel repair guy who made that ridiculously priced wheel look like new for like $20. Amazing what can be done with the right skill and/or tools.

oh i did wash it before i touched it up so I could see what I was working with lolll
basically a rinse, foam, 2 bucket, rinse again. i didn't care much about the paint because if I chase that paint perfection there'd be no end to it hahaha
my first "damage" was a tapped bumper at like 3K miles. Tapped the exhaust and the bumper on a rock due to poor departure angle, and couldn't get it straight since. If you look at my driver side rear bumper you'll see it's out of alignment. Then the first pin stripe was at 6k. I tried so hard to keep the paint fresh but it's bound to happen again and again as long as I take this truck off pavement.
I've given up quite early on lol the day I get it fully polished is the day that I'm ready to put the truck on market.

oh man I still gotta get my M3 bumper, hood, and wheels fixed. the frontal area are from rock chips, while the wheels were my own fault because I was half awake and muscle memory from the truck made me turn wide when I leave my house. Curbed both pass wheels on the curb across my driveway LOL

Don't remember, but was that a tree limb that hit it? If that's all the damage you have with all the exploring you do you are doing well.
I can buff a truck/car to be shinny, but any type of body work I'll make a mess of it. I have zero artistic ability at all.
Have you or has anyone else here made a list of supplies needed when exploring/traveling?

oh and the tree limb was the hood and A-Pillar light.
i was going way fast on the trail and didn't see. tree branch hit the hood and my A-pillar light at like 60MPH. good thing the 6 years old Baja Design squadron and new SDHQ mount held up their ends and protected the windshield. No damage on anyhting other than long scuff on the hood, and the Squadron got knocked sideways but not even a crack on the plastic cover.

that is why I rave about BD and SDHQ. expensive yes but saved me thousands of dollars on new windshield and painting A pillar.

sounds like you keep busy! haha, but as you said comes with the territory when you have fun cars and trucks particularly if you're going off road. Can't take em with you as they say so may as well use them while you can. It's worth it!

I also need to invest in a good switch panel, probably an S-pod

Had a solid start to the weekend - installed a set of Baja Designs LP6 Lights on my 2025 Rebel using our new OEM+ Light Mounting Kit. Love how the amber backlight matches all the marker lights and how the 6" light fills the open grille area.

Those brackets really wont fit on Laramie, limited?



Also received my new Toyo's, Methods, Bilstein's and BDS parts.. Let the next stage of the build begin!
