I have a '24 3500 with the "Sport" hood. I tried an AVS Aeroskin II. Like the MOPAR deflector, it says it fits all models. It doesn't.
I can't say from experience that the PW and Rebel hoods are identical, but they visually appear to be the same as the "Sport" hood.
Here's what I noted...
Same. IMO, it seems like a violation of purchase contract that a dealer will sell you the VSIM option, but the manufacturer denies you access to the instructions to use it.

Don't know if you're really interested in one or not, but I'm making one for a buddy of mine. If you are interested, let me know. We'd have to figure out some logistics, but it's...
The thought did cross my mind! If nothing else, we may get a 5500 with a hauler bed at some point down the road. We'll see. Our 3500 pulled it just fine.
Basically, yeah. My wife and I are going to be full-timers starting this spring. I work from home, so now home will be wherever we park it. We still own a home that we're renting to our daughter and her boyfriend, and we're finishing up an RV parking spot project so we have a place to park...
That's just the remote for the hoist. I opted for a wireless remote instead of the typical dongle style, simply because it gave me better mobility to not be under the hoist when operating.
Thanks, gents. About $200 and 1 hour for the whole setup. Worth every damn penny and minute to save my back. You're right - a 220lb hitch is no joke. And I too like to do truck things with my truck. Links to items below if anyone is interested.

Has anyone attempted to install this on a MY23-up? BD's website description says that it works with up to MY22. I called their sales dept, and the gentleman I spoke with said they haven't verified fitment / function with 23-up. He said as long as the connectors are the same, then it should...
Installed a hoist in my garage to easily install/remove my 5th wheel hitch. Got the hitch installed; getting ready to pick up our new home away from home.
The yellow safety chain in the pictures is just a parking aid. I line up the center-line on the rear-view camera with the chain to get...
How well does the WeatherTech rock guard fit the contours of the sport hood?
I have the sport hood as well and purchased an AVS AeroSkin II about a year ago, but I had to return it because the profile of the sport hood is slightly different than the standard hood. I looked on WeatherTech's...
Second project was installation of my air horn.
I used the same bracket that I made for my battery tender, just bent in reverse. Battery tender is on the left side of the truck, air horn is on the right. I made a diagonal support for the end of the horn. It's 18" long, so it needed some...
Finished up a couple more projects today. First one was a fuse block + power terminal under the hood.
Had a bracket cut at SendCutSend.com
Cut off the smaller mounting tab and cleaned up the burrs on the edges.
Put in a few bends and had it powder coated. The smaller tab bolts to the...
Update on the transfer case buttons:
Picture of the back of the button cluster housing. The circular cover is easily removed and could be used for wire pass-through. The smaller rectangular cover (just to the right of the 12-pin connector) is also easily removed.
Picture of the inside of...
