I agree and have made same argument with Dealer. If truck will lower in ATH and then default to Normal Ride Height when no load detected one would think it should lower at least the same amount as ATH when in Bed Lowering Mode and stay there until you disengage from BLM. Owners Manual states...
I think you right with your estimation. I have 900 lbs. when towing on the tongue and it doesn't engage. But Bed Lowering Mode is a completely different function then ATH and I'm interested in the Bed Lowering function which is advertised to aid WHILE hooking up to a trailer. ATH function is to...
Brought to dealer today and had mechanic come out so he could see what I'm talking about. Nice fellow but wasn't aware any Ram truck had bed lowering mode. Showed him video from Ram of bed lowering and the amount of travel. He agrees it doesn't seem right that mine doesn't lower at all. We'll...
I understand you're thinking but Ram could've easily put a disclaimer in the manual stating doesn't work on 3500 models, renamed it something else but they didn't but they do on other things. If you search for Ram sponsored advertisements they'll state ALL HD models have this feature. I...
What I would like to know from Ram is an actual measurement for my truck in it's configuration. No dealer I've dealt with can answer that. My truck is a 3500 dually, crew cab, 8' bed ,max tow package ,HO Cummins. This truck is fully optioned so it's as heavy as it can be. My payload is around...
Ive been trying to find a dealer that cares but it seems once they got your money they're not so nice. Quick history of the service, brought truck in 1st time for bed lowering mode problem and was told it works and lowers truck 1". because of covid didnt check at dealer lot and checked a few...
Here's an update. Scheduled on Mon or tues. to bring truck to dealer today at 7:30 am. This is not dealer I purchased truck from because I shopped for price and that dealer is too far from my home. Arrived at scheduled time and was told they weren't going to look at my truck and to leave, that...
So do you think all 3500's wether they're DRW or SRW do not move at all? Bed Lowering mode suggests to me the bed should lower. If its on the truck one would think something should happen
Good info.But if your truck only lowers 3/4" and its working correctly it is useless imho. 3/4" might make a difference in some aspects of life ;)but not when pertaining to the truck bed lowering mode. Seems like a useless gimick from Ram. I have a travel trailer and fully loaded weighs 8800...
Yes i'll let you know. My understanding on the 3500's is the Alternate Trailer Height only functions when there is enough of a load to warrant its use otherwise it just reverts to normal height. I know more then my salesman and service manager combined, and I know very little.
I agree. It is useless. Mine clicks makes noises like something is happening but doesn't lower a fraction of an inch. Shows "bed low" on dash with no difference in height. What's the purpose of this function then. Bringing truck to dealer on fri. for the 2nd time concerning this. I'll post my...
thanks for the reply. I know the alternate trailer height function lowers the truck 1" to 1.5 ". Still not sure that the BED LOWERING MODE located in the apps in the u connect is 1.5". mine does not move at all when I hit the button in the apps. Anybody else have any info? Dealers are not...
