What did you do TO your RAM today?

With some troubleshooting and a custom harness from @Jimmy07 , I now have a working tailgate release overhead console in my tradesman. I also swapped out the dome light for the OEM LED one. The dome light was a straight swap (no pic included).

I downloaded a speedometer app on my phone to see how far off I was going from the stock tradesman tires to 285’s and at 50mph I was actually doing 57! I got Alfa, Kaodtech bypass and the mx+ last week so today I reprogrammed, now it’s only 1mph off on the first try which I’m happy with. While I was playing around I added the current gear option to the cluster.

14% is pretty dang far off. That’s odd it was off that far since I know you didn’t go up 14% in tire size that’s like 38”.

I calibrated mine myself and my Speedo reads 1mph high at 35mph and 2mph high at 75mph so I haven’t bothered to dial it any closer.

That’s on my list for next week sometime.

Perhaps he had the lowest trim tman with the 17” factory wheels? That would be close to the 14% as they are 245/70R17s
 
FYI - I had a couple of GPS apps on my phone. I had to ditch one of them because it would sometimes report the speed wrong. It was driving me crazy setting my tire size. Double check the phone app against a standalone GPS unit if you can.

Might of been my post earlier in this thread:

What did you do TO your RAM today?

Mine clears everything now but I obviously don’t have a cap and eyeballing it, the arm looks like it would be close right as the door closes or starts to open. My poor old tradesman is a garage queen, like to keep it that way. Although if I can’t, lift and tires for the win if she has to go...

I don’t have a stand alone gps but will compare the speed in my car using the same app just to double check it.

Received my Husky bed liner today. Wasn't interested in spending $500-600 for a bed liner. This one was just over $100. Heavy rubber and seems durable. Fits well!

How easy do you think you could cut that liner? I am thinking about putting one on top of my decked system but I would need to cut out the areas the L track is.
 
Hey guys, my 2022 dually rear has partial plastic wheel tubs. It has a front and a rear but the top center third is open and allowing the steel inner fender to get blasted with stones, water, salt and de-ice chemicals.

Is there an additional OEM part that can be ordered to fill that missing void? I really do not want to have that steel exposed to damage like that.

Rear inner wheel well liners would be what your looking for
 
No pics as it isn't that interesting....but I got the Husky center hump mat installed today. Cut a little around the lower junk collector and have just about full coverage. I really like the Husky products.

I had a gift card to use:
Husky Liners 83701 Fits 2009-18 Dodge Ram 1500 Crew Cab, 2010-18 Dodge 2500/3500 Crew Cab/Mega Cab Weatherbeater Center Hump Floor Mat , Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003G0KZF6/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_XDTCZW7NT2BAD375G7YC
