  • So long as you have at least 1" of clearance between the back of the shank of your Blue Ox SwayPro and the trailer hitch receiver opening on your 2015 Ram 1500 you can use the Rock Tamers Heavy-Duty, Adjustable Mud Flap System for 2" Hitches # ERT00108.

  • Can P3 Brake Controller Install in 2014 Ram 3500 with Integrated Factory Controller
  • You can bypass the factory brake controller on a 2014 Dodge Ram. To install an aftermarket controller you will need to disconnect the integrated trailer brake module (ITBM). Doing so will turn on a warning lamp in the dash. In order to disconnect the ITBM and not get the warning lamp, your local Dodge dealer will have to reconfigure the TIPM (Totally Integrated Power Module), of the truck. Once the TIPM has been reconfigured, and the ITBM has been unplugged, you can use a vehicle specific...

  • Does Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar FIt 2018 Ram 3500 With Factory Air Suspension
  • That's a good question, so I contacted Roadmaster regarding the fit of the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1129-144.

  • Electric Over Hydraulic Trailer Brakes Not Working with a 2016 Ram 5500
  • It sounds like the 7-Way connectors are not pinned out in a standard configuration. I have included a picture that shows the vehicle side functions of a 7-Way trailer connector.
