What did you do TO your RAM today?

I really tested the payload........hauled a lazy-boy chair!

Too old to give a dam, and many kin from the south.

Yourself? or with spray cans?

Bought one gallon can and the fluid film spray gun.

Did you follow a certain video or process? It did you spray indiscriminately? I want to do this

Gun comes with couple flexible wands. I inserted and sprayed into all frame openings as well as pulling factory body plugs in lower rocker panels and spraying inside those. Then installed spray nozzle and sprayed everything underside of truck except the exhaust system.

Did you do this on your back or how did you jack up the truck?

I’ve got a pit

That’s smart. I bought one of the car wash mitts on a pole and it works like crap

Makes it *so* much easier getting to the top of the truck... I thought about that wash mitt on a pole, but I didn't see how you'd do much more than smear it around.. and I need to go up there to get some paint correction done anyway so this will help, trying to use a ladder *sucked*.

Finally installed the spare tire lock I ordered back in November.

Also finished up reworking the Ford 12-pin trailer camera wiring harness to work with my camera(s) since you can't buy the harness only from FCA.

I live in AZ and my commuter Civic windshield gets replaced at least once a year. Have about a dozen chips right now.

This afternoon was Hyperdip day. I had already debadged the chrome RAM on the doors, the 4X4 and Laramie on the tailgate, and the "Sport" decal. Today the chrome top mirrors got Hyperdipped along with the Ram's Head on the tailgate, the "RAM" on the grill, and the "3500HD badge. I was a bit worried about how it would turn out as I had never even Plastidipped anything before. In the end I am happy with it for a rookie. The 3500 HD badge was a bit of detail work cleaning it out as I wanted to keep the red. Not perfect, but it will do. Now that the only chrome left is most of the grill and the wheels I will live with that. For now at least.

Hope it holds up well to washing over time.

The finish turned out great on those!

Well, finally finished the Aux Reverse light install w/ Trigger4 switches! I did it on a budget (minus springing for Trigger4 but I’ll get more use than just these lights). I liked the Baja Designs but i didn’t want to spend that much on lights. A ton of thanks to @SBelt for tons of help! He’s gone out of his way to share his bracket specs, wiring diagram, and lessons learned with me! I have right at 5 pages of direct messages with him, haha! I wired these to be able to come on with factory reverse lights as well with a manual switch. I wanted the options of being able to turn them off if blinding someone in reverse and the option to turn them on while in park for trailer hook up/loading. Also, it will work as a D-Bag Deterrent if someone driving behind me doesn’t want to turn the bright lights off, haha! I’ve worked with relays before but never diodes. With @SBelt guidance, I installed correctly. Also, I’ve always wanted to learn to solder but have never taken the time. I’ve always went to great links to weatherproof the best I could (dielectric grease and heat shrink). With @SBelt guidance and some YouTube, I’ve gotten pretty good and I’m more confident in my connections now that they’re soldered. Only issue I had was in initially, they didn’t want to come on in reverse. After finding that reverse wire from trailer harness wasn’t powered, I looked in fuse box and there was not a fuse there! Who knows! I bought truck with 9k miles on it, previous owner may’ve taken out.

Any chance I could persuade you to create a write-up / thread on this mod? I’m looking to do the same rear lighting config (on in reverse or via aux switch). Thanks!

You finally convinced yourself. I'd like to see your review of it after you've had some time with it in the rain and dust.
