looks good! where did you pick up the headlights from?

 

I got them off of ebay, easy just do a search for 14 ram headlights and they will pop up. The paint on the inside is a black matte finish. Lights are close to stock, the plastic on the back feels thinner than stock by tapping on it, but over all close to factory. I did have to send one set back due to one of the lens looked like someone used windex on it and left it to dry. Could only see it when the lights were on, but it was replaced fast.

 

Small update, Painted the front bumper matte black, it blends in great with the rest of the truck now.

 

Looks great! That makes the whole difference. It ties the mirrors in real nice.

 

Question about the Headlights. Will those bulbs fit the stock housing? Also what about the fog lights? Id like to get matching lights

 

Question on the Mufflex stuff. I just checked their website, does anyone know if the muffler delete that they offer for the hemi will work for the ED? The muffler on our trucks looks similar to the hemi one. Also, do the tips mount the same way as the stock ones, the bigger tips look real good.

 

Added a set of Motometal wheel 20x12 with 305 50 20 Nitto 420s. Love this set up on the truck.

 

Very nice truck! Now paint the grill black or replace with a black grill and remove "RAM 1500" badges.

 

Good move on the wheels & shoes. Very sharp!

 

Can't find those headlamps anywhere... Do you remember or can you provide seller?

Also what did you do for fog lights?

Need better lighting options leave rural and the quads are blah

 

I dont normally like this style but this is a great looking truck! You need those black talights from the Black Appearance option

 

Added a set of fender flares today, kept them matte black to match the front and rear bumper.

 

Installed a set of the AFe intercooler pipes, install is pretty straight forward, other than AFe silicone couplers are hard as hell to work with, even when using a lite coat of oil on them. Getting the stock hoses off the stock intercooler is the biggest pain of the whole installed. Did have to trim the stock cover so that is would fit again, and you have to remove the foam on the driver side for the AFe pipe to fit. Spools faster since i got rid of that big u the stock hot side made to connect to the intercooler. Did find oil on both the hot and cold side stock pipes when I took them off.

 

Any more review info on the charge tubes? Worth buying or?

 

I am in love with this truck !!!!

I am also interested in hearing how the intake, and charge pipes changed the truck.

 

Are the AFE tubes worth the money?

 

Worth they money, yes. The low end to mid range is improved with these, but i suspect its mostly because its due to the shorter hotside pipe. Feels like the torque band happens at a lower rpm range than before. Spool time is so much quicker than before. Warn you the install is hard because of AFe silicone couplers.

 

Are your fender flares aftermarket? If so, who makes them? I think they would look on my truck too

 

Love the stance of the truck, looks awesome man! Did you notice a huge mpg drop with those wide tires?

 

dropped about 1.5-2 mpgs with the new wheels and tires.

 

Any difference with that SB air filter? Mpg drop?

 

I will know this weekend, there is a dyno day coming up that I'm going to, to see the numbers. no MPG drop with the filter that I could tell of, My MPG drop came from new wheels and tires

 

Got my new grille painted and installed it, not bad for a $105 grille off ebay.

Installed a dual Hornblasters set up on the truck, Outlaw train horn up front behind the front bumper and The Bandit horn mounted on the passenger side of the truck. Horns are operated by two different switches. Mounted the 2 gallon tank and compressor in the bed, with a secondary 2 gallon tank under the truck.

The Bandit mounted under the truck

The Outlaw mounted behind the front bumper

 

Dam those horns must be loud, scare the crap out of anyone yet with them?

 

Yes they are loud, but i live in southeast georgia/northeast florida area and no one knows that their car came with turn signals.

Other note was going to dyno the truck today, but truck was too wide for the dyno.

 

Today drop the rear 2" to level out the truck, reverse of what most guys do on this forum, but I want a street truck not an offroader. Pretty simple install 1 hr with the right tools. More than pleased with the outcome. Ride is close to stock, one thing that I could tell is that the rear doesn't move around like it use to with the stock set up, when you get in the throttle hard.

before and after pic

 

What did you use for the drop? did you use lowering shackles or???

 

Nice looking truck, the rear drop look tough.

 

Very sharp looking. Nice job!

 

Small mod today to the truck, added an aux airline with quick connects to the air tank for any roadside emergencies.
