Hey Boys. I picked up a set of second hand Ram electric running boards. came factory on my truck but dealer removed before sale. I put them on in the winter and previously tried to disassemble them to clean and lubricate everything. Not happening!! I've just been washing them and lubricating...

Hey Guys Little update on my own experience wit this. I've got the rear air bag spacer but also just added Daystar air bag cradle. This really frees up the rear end in jounce but almost reacts harsher for compression. haven't had time to play with any other settings again but could be ride...

If they look odd I did a vinyl wrap on them but they are cumbersome to wrap. other than that great produce having adjustability is good if your like me and play with it from month to month or when changing conditions.

Here's some more pic of my tuck.

I had 35s on my truck when stock with aftermarket rims. I'm sure we've documented what rims and tires fit to death on this forum. Look into a sway bar for the ride and even shocks. But the .5 is an estimate. all trucks are different. Thurens site is full of great info on the subject.

Hey Got my truck back and measured much to my surprise The truck is box high 0.5". Front is 26.5 rear was 27 even. Just added a 400L slip tank so might be the same or dead level.

Your probably not wrong about planned obsolescence. I researched what I could on all three major manufactures of 3500 truck trans options had glaring corners cut from cheap clutch material to cheap electronics. The PTO option is what ever as Aisin has the same thing that I know of in chassis cab...

I think moving to the ZF will be a big win for RAM. The medium duty market is a different animal where the application of components has to work or you get lawsuits like International on there engines. The Point of these trucks is for work but for a large number of people that drive them like a...

Have you ever had success with the recovery mats? I find they are a good idea with minimal results

Yeah I think you'll Like 1" it looks some what dead level but its not. and two dirt bike should activate the airbags to level out. I did adjust my valves so when nothings in the bed its got softer bags. and yes getting old sucks and I'm not even old lol. My next purchase may be a good bed step.

Will do I've only Done it a couple times so Ill have to start doing that.

You'll have to measure your truck they'll be different from on another I'm 99% sure mine is very slight rake. less than 1" taller in the back if measured. again I can also confirm that when I get the truck back. If you haul a trailer I wouldn't go much higher than a 1" block in the rear as the...

Unfortunately I don't have any decent pictures and the trucks in the shop for body work. Ill get some pictures when shoes clean and back. I have some rear gravel guards to install and I'm thinking I'll fabricate some DCS guards. Wiggs me out having the piggy back on the bottom. It wont look much...

I'm a diesel mechanic so my wife is well aware of my cologne. At least I work out of town so I'm clean when I come home.

These chassis fuel filters are brutal. I tried draining it first the other day and still got a good splash lol. Good Idea
