I'd like to add the lower glove box light to my 2024 Big Horn but I don't have the plug. Any suggestion for a good place to tap into the power?

I'm looking for the easiest way to run wires through the firewall on the passenger side of my 3500 Hemi. Any suggestions?

This is a little bit of a rant. I frequently remove my tailgate to haul my slide in camper. There are three connectors that have to be disconnected, the main multi-wire plug on the connector bracket, the backup camera coax connector on the connector bracket, and a two wire connector that isn't...

I've got my system mostly set up the way I want it but have some questions about how to do some things or if they are possible. I use my truck with my slide in camper. I've added the Pitch/Roll gage widget to one of my Home screen pages and like to use it to get as level as possible when...

I found a wireless charger that fits good in my center console phone holder. However the standard USB ports below the 12" screen don't support it, it just keeps starting and stopping. It works fine when powered from the charge only USB ports for the back seat passengers. Is it possible to...

I have an older cabover truck camper but newer trucks have higher cabs. I raised my camper high enough to clear the top of my cab but I didn't want to raise it another 2" to clear the shark fin antenna so I decided to relocate the shark fin antenna. I listen to FM HD radio and I didn't want to...

I'm putting my truck camper on my 3500 and I don't want to raise it high enough to to clear the shark fin antenna so I want to replace it with antenna(s) in different locations. My understanding from a different thread that the shark fin antenna is for AM/FM and Cell, not GPS/SDARS which is...

The way I currently get to the surround camera view on my 12" screen is to select Vehicle, then Cameras, and then Surround. Is there an easier way to get the Surround View? It is useful for not being "That Guy" when I park.

I need to relocate the shark fin antenna on my new 2024 3500 because I don't want to raise my cabover camper enough to clear it. Does anyone have the instructions on how to drop the headliner? Thanks

Is there a way to display the surround view in full screen on the 12" display? I can expand the other camera views (although not full screen) but the surround view is always small.

I have the Highline instrument cluster. I'm aware the current gear is displayed in the instrument cluster when ERS is activated but is there a way to keep it displayed without ERS activated? The owner's manual implies there is a way to do it in the settings but I can't figure it out. If it...

I'm not a big fan of extended warranties (actually service contracts) because the house usually wins so I usually decline them or purchase the OEM backed service contract from a discount seller after I've purchased the vehicle. I was all prepared to decline everything the F&I guy was going to...

There aren't a lot of options for wheel to wheel side steps for 3500 dually and the few that are available are expensive. I don't really need "wheel to wheel" but I would like the steps to extend to the front of the bed. It seems like I could just buy some 3500 crew cab short bed wheel to...

I've broken in my share of engines and I try to follow the manufacturer's recommendations but the Ram wording is a little confusing to me. I know to vary speeds and gears, no cruise control, no low gear hard accelerations, etc. but I'm trying to understand their intent. The wording from the...

I have a Big Horn gas 3500 DRW on the way. The build sheet lists "6,000# FRONT AXLE W/HUB EXT" but from what I've read the FGAW will be derated to 5,500 lbs with the gas engine. Does anyone know exactly why the front axle is derated? I'm assuming softer springs are put in for the gas engine...

The owner's manual instructs not to tow a trail during the first 500 miles, and don't exceed 50 MPH nor use full throttle during towing for the next 500 miles. But it is silent about hauling a load in the bed. Do the same rules apply for hauling heavy items? Common sense would say they would...

I have a 3500 long bed crew cab on order to haul my slide-in truck camper. My current truck (2000 K3500 long bed crew cab) has 2 1/8" clearance between the center of the cab and the bottom of the camper sleeper overhang and hasn't hit in 20 years. Measurements show I'll have about 1.5"...

I've read through this older thread for installing a rear view camera on a truck camper for use when the tailgate is removed: https://hdrams.com/forum/index.php?threads/surround-view-backup-cam-with-a-camper.2029/ I'm wondering if there is any updated information. Specifically, the recommended...

I'm building a gas Big Horn 3500 on the Ram website to haul my truck camper. Upgrading to a 220 amp alternator only cost $145 so it seems like a good idea. On the other hand I can't picture myself needing more than the base 180 amp alternator. I plan on keeping the truck stock and not adding...

I'm researching trucks for use with my large slide in truck camper. One of the options I like on Ram trucks is the auto leveling system if it works good with a slide in camper and the associated high center of gravity during cornering. Does it work as good as individual filled manual air...
