Those wheels are spot on and make the truck look great with the wider stance. It's really the one thing missing from this truck.

I think the Goodyear Territory MTs are a really nice looking tire. I hope they offer a lot more sizes in the future for more customization.

Been a while since I’ve added to this thread. I’ve added small things here and there. Today I got my Rock Trix wheels installed. They are 18X9, -12 offset. I chose to keep the GoodYears for a bit longer. View attachment 9121View attachment 9122View attachment 9123

Wow!!

Which caliper covers are those?

Decided to change the look of the front and rear bumpers. I’d been looking at aftermarket rear bumpers. Seeing there’s not anything available for the front to match, I figured I’d go a different route. Had the front and rear bumpers coated in Line-X coating. I also had the silver fascia skid plate, the front and rear bow ties done. I haven’t installed the rear bow tie yet. It may not be something for everyone, but I think it turned out pretty good. It’s going to take a big a$$ rock to chip it now

$1,500 for everything. It was just a little more than the rear bumpers I’d been looking at.

Looks good to me! Did they pull all the parts or do it as one spray?

I'm about to Line-X my rocker panels and doors to the top of the rough orange peel section. It's got so many rock chips it looks like shit. It might not look as refined as nice shiny new paint, but it will be effective and protect the sheet metal.

They pulled it apart and sprayed each part individually. They said it was very time consuming, but it achieved the best look. I had them leave the factory plastic on both bumpers alone. Didn’t want them covered at this point.

Yeah, when I Line-Xd my lower facia, it took more time to pull than I thought it would. I masked some of the areas where bolts and plastic trim mated to prevent fitting issues. It is definitely a project to do it right.

Added the Peak sway bar relocation blocks today. Knowing how the correct sway bar geometry on my lowered Ram R/T affected ride and handling, I figured this was a no brainer addition. Running the Peak 2.25” lift with Cognito upper control arms.

(FYI: the service manual I have calls for 37ftlbs torque for the clamp bolts)

Mine are arriving today.

Did you have to discount the sway bar mounts at the lower control arm to install?

No, just take the four 10mm clamp bolts off let the sway bar drop slowly. Install the blocks with the factory bolts. Then raise the bar up and install the bar with the provided bolts. I have an eBay service manual that says the bolts are torqued to 37ftlbs.
