Thanks! now I’m considering adding Thuren rear coils and Fox shocks. I’ll definitely add shocks either way. Just not sure about coils
 
Tint looks good murder, any side shots?

I’m OCD about tint shades and think I made a mistake...I have 15% all around (over factory rear too) and 70% windshield. The windshield has a blemish and they are going to retint . Considering goin to 5% up front.

My last ram was 5% all around and 70% windshield
 
I went with 25% on fronts and 80% on windshield, ceramic film. I’ve had darker before but it was difficult seeing the trailer in the mirror at night

Do you know what that changed height to on the truck as I know stock height is 80”. My back garage is 81” and yes truck barely fits so am afraid if I level her out she won’t fit in garage anymore.

Just a guess but if it is 80” now and you add a 2” level it would be closer to 82” after that

Not sure if thats true being your leveling vehicle and rear did not change in height was the only reason I asked. Thought it might only be an inch or so

Is your highest point the clearance lights, fin antenna etc? Mine is. Well, at least that’s what would hit my garage first if I tried pulling in

2” level will bring the pinch weld behind the front tire up right at 2”. Fwiw, a 2” level would make my truck 1/4” of negative rake that’s why mine is still sitting in the box.

You’ll see a linear decline in added height from the front springs to the rear springs. So, the added height at the tallest point is something that can be calculated

2" lift/ level doesn't raise whole truck 2" every truck is also lil different best thing to do is go out and measure
 
Think he just wanted to know what the overall height was to tallest point on truck with your setup so he can fit in his garage that all
 
I didn't do it but nature did. In Georgetown near Austin Texas getting snowed on!

A00B3ADD-4DCC-42A7-B49D-ED3813E40874.jpeg The front windows came tinted from the dealership. I probably would have gone 15% all around, but the 20% doesn’t look bad. I also do a lot of driving on roads with no streetlights, so 5% is out of the question for me. I debated between 40% and 50% for the windshield, and I’m happy I went with the darker tint.
 
SwitchPros wired in to the truck...next I need to start wiring accessories(arb compressor and rock lights...then I’ll get reverse lights and A-pillar lights some time down the line, I don’t actually have them yet though)

color match is better in person, it looks a bit off in pictures though. Full brightness with headlights off, dims with headlights on (or technically anytime clearance Lights are on)

I’m happy with the location... it’s visible from the drivers seat if you look, but not in your face. No glare from it (I get glare from the Cluster on the side window), and Far enough from my knee I don’t think I’ll ever bash it with my knee.

Saturday I installed passive entry. With taking care of my 3 kids and doing this it took me about 6 hours to do it.

I didn’t know this could be retrofitted...care to elaborate on the cost, parts needed, process, etc???
