What did you do TO your RAM today?

It was yesterday but I got his done.
Added Husky front mud flaps. I wanted the RAM rubber ones but they are on backorder so I wnt with these for now. Don't look bad though just a little shorter than I would like.
Installed my 60 gal RDS aux fuel tank/tool box. Technically gives me 110 gal of fuel but I've never been able to put more the 53-55 gal in the tank so around 105 gal actually.
Installed 5th wheel hitch
Got the back seat ready for the pup with a 4knines liner

I have never seen a hitch head mounted that high? Curious what the 5th wheel pinbox mount looks like.

When I first got the camper it was so close I couldn’t fit my fist upright it between. Actually dented the tailgate cresting a hill in a campground the first night. I raised the head as high as it will go and haven’t had any problems yet

Same here.

Added some protection today also with your mount and a fire extinguisher. Just need to get a holster to hard mount the glock like I just did with the fire extinguisher. Found the perfect place (for me ergonomically) to mount my edc.


Also found a great spot to mount fuel can. Need to get parts to mount it permanently still.

What system?

If by system you mean mount, both he and I are running the one he makes. Great quality IMO.

I purchased this kit. It fits the HD trucks without issue but you need to purchase the bezel 68449343AA and the interior mounting bracket 68449383AA to complete the install. It comes with a bracket that fits snug on 68449383AA and is plug and play with the factory wiring.
 
Mounting those light bars in front of 1/3 of your intercooler's intake area are potentially de-rating the system if you believe what AEV says. Same for the CJC lower skid plate. Combine the two and I think it's cause for concern.

That looks great! Is that the amber lens kit or the amber tinted rock guard?
Click to expand...
I started with just the snap-on rock guard (pictured), but ended up not liking it (it would get water and dust between the rock guard and lenses. And since it's hard to get to, there is no taking it on and off easily). So I switched to amber lenses instead.

(*edited - I shouldn't post from a mobile phone and or proof read better)

I have thought about that certainly. The CJC intercooler has more openings than the two on the stock air damn (more opening "surface area"). More air is certainly flowing through than before. As far as the light bar in the upper intercooler intake, it sits far enough back that air can flow around it. Also, I don't have the larger lightbar, it's the smaller s8. I have also data logged every trip ever taken with the truck. I will have equivalent data soon to tell if any changes in temps, etc. (with consideration to ambient air temps, towing, i.e. over similar conditions)
 
I did a few things to my 2017 2500 6.4, hopefully it kind of belongs here since it involves a few 2019+ parts:
Swapped out the 66RFE for the 8HP75, which required the PCM, BCM, RF Hub, and fobs all sourced from a 2021 wreck. 7BCE16B5-07E2-4252-8C15-A79B8D0E8BB1.jpeg
Then, I was fortunate enough to obtain the entire interior from a 7000 mile 2020 limited wreck:

My original interior as ordered:

One of the few harnesses I had to build for the swap:

Also swapped out the standard steering gear for the gear with torque overlay, with the intention of incorporating comma.ai.
A few other features I incorporated are 2022 digital rear view mirror with both cameras, ttpms, and trailer surround view wiring out back to the 12/7 trailer connector.
