    Looks good! Assuming you daily drive your Ram? I'm not nearly 'rich' enough to own anything I couldn't daily drive :-)

    Diesel/Gas justification banter?

    I have driven many years and miles in 3/4 ton crew cab pickups, both diesels and gassers. I used to track all my expenses and ALWAYS came out significantly better on the gassers. Granted, driving more miles and towing more would shift the dynamics in favor of the diesel. I drive a diesel...

    Articu-Link Radius Arms For Sale

    Still available! Would be willing to deliver in the Dallas Texas area (or Lubbock, Midland, Odessa), for $300!!! I need to get rid of them, there is nothing wrong with them, they are just too flexy for the weight of the Cummins

    Boogie bumps for towing

    Here's what my truck looks like with about 2,000 lbs in the bed (no 'gimmicks')... Notice it's about 1.5" to the bumpstop, unloaded it's about 4.5"

    What did you do TO your RAM today?

    Yes, please report back on those 2.5 HTO's, very curious how they do. Do you have stock rear springs?

    Cheapest option to soften the ride?

    I like your setup! I have 275/65r20 BFG KO2's on my stock wheels and with my current suspension setup, this was firm on the highway, but downright harsh on rocky off road trails. With my 35x12.5r17 tires that I'm currently running, it's still sporty on the highway, but much softer on the rocky...

    Cheapest option to soften the ride?

    A bit more info would help. What suspension mods are you currently running? Any front spacers? Also, is it a diesel or a gasser? That makes a big difference. In my opinion, the tires you’re running are already about as “soft” as it gets, especially at 45 PSI, so I wouldn’t expect meaningful...

    '22 3500 Grinding noise and hard to turn in 4wd. Fixed now but I have a question for the experts.

    I wouldn't say never; there are cases where I would actually use 4wd (4-Low even) on dry pavement, just avoid making sharp turns. One example, pulling up a steep boat ramp after loading a big/heavy boat...

    '22 3500 Grinding noise and hard to turn in 4wd. Fixed now but I have a question for the experts.

    The presence of an open front differential has NOTHING to do with driveline bind in a part-time 4x4 system, and that’s the key point being missed here. The binding occurs because there is NO CENTER DIFF between the front and rear axles. In 4H, the transfer case mechanically locks the front and...
