Expert Answers about Ram 1500


  • Trailer Wheel and Tire to Replace 4.80-8 with 4.80-12
  • In the tire size of 4.80-12 on a 4 bolt wheel like you are wanting we have the Kenda part # AM30620 which has a 990 lb capacity so with a pair you'd have nearly double the weight capacity you'd need. This is a white wheel setup. If you preferred a similar option with a galvanized wheel you'd want the part # AM30630 instead.

  • Functions Provided by Superchips Flashcal Calibrator for Dodge/Ram Trucks SU3545
  • The Superchips Flashcal Calibrator for Dodge/Ram Trucks, item # SU3545, does not re-tune your vehicle. This product is designed to do things like re-calibrate your speedometer for a different tire size or changes to your gear ratio, to change the speed and rev limiter settings, clear diagnostic codes and read your battery voltage. It can do these things but it does not re-tune your engine for increased power or torque the way a tuner does. We currently do not have an actual tuner for your...

  • How to Add Second 4-Way Connector to 2016 Ram 1500 for Light Bar
  • The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118384 is exactly what you're looking for as it tees in with the US CAR connection at the back of the factory wiring on your 2016 Ram 1500 and provides you with an additional 4-Way connection for your light strip. This doesn't pull the reverse signal so you will need to tap into that function.

  • Recommended Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier for 2014 Ram 1500
  • The cargo carrier I would recommend for you is the Pro Series cargo carrier # 63153. This popular carrier features an angled shank, which would raise the carrier up 2-1/2 inches above the receiver, providing additional ground clearance. This carrier can be used with LED light kit # 98174LED. It will fit a 2 inch trailer hitch and the lights plug into a 4-Way flat connector. For install details and some product demonstration videos, click the provided links.

  • Demco Hijacker Autoslider 5th Wheel Hitch for 2016 Ram Rebel 1500 w/ Air Suspension
  • Although there are Demco Hijacker Autosliding hitches that would work with your 2016 Ram Rebel 1500, there are unfortunately no Demco under bed mounts that are compatible with the air suspension so you'd need to go with the above bed mounts. Demco doesn't offer an above bed mount that'll work with the air suspension, but luckily Reese does. So, you could use the Demco Hijacker Autoslider along with a Reese # RP50142-58 above-bed rail kit. The Reese kit uses industry standard rails as does...

This system is confirmed to fit your truck and the installation process is shown in the video I linked for you. Installation requires no drilling and all hardware is included.

  • Ladder Rack for 2019 Ram 1500 with 5.7 Bed Length
  • Thule TracRac SR sliding ladder racks are awesome but they are made for 8-foot and 6-1/2-foot bed lengths only. We do have ladder racks for your 2019 Ram 1500 with 5.7 bed (and without the RamBox feature) that you can see on the linked page.

  • Trunnion Bar Weight Distribution Hitch With 1400 lb Tongue Weight Capacity
  • If you're wanting a trunnion bar system without sway control that has a 1400lb+ tongue weight capacity, Reese offers one. I'd recommend the # RP66131 Trunnion Bar system, which is effective on trailers with tongue weights ranging from 800-1500 lbs. You'll also need a 2-5/16 trailer ball, part # 19286. The kit doesn't include a shank, so you'll need to measure the height difference between the inside top edge of your hitch receiver tube and the underside of your trailer coupler when it's...

  • Can SuperChips Programmer Tune a Second Vehicle If First Vehicle Wasn't Put back to Stock
  • No there is not. You might be able to contact SuperChips to see if they'll sell you a way to unlock it, but unless you can track down the original vehicle and return it back to stock their programmers cannot then tune a second vehicle. The programmers are designed like this so that you someone couldn't tune unlimited vehicles after purchasing just the one programmer.

  • Can Curt Spectrum Install a 2019 Ram 1500
  • Yes, the Curt Spectrum # C51170 will fit and work great installed in your 2019 Ram 1500. There's not reason it wouldn't be compatible. The install harness needed would be the part # C51458 but it sounds like you have that already.

  • Is There a Screen Room for Rightline Truck Bed Tent
  • The Rightline Truck Bed Tent, # RL110730 is for 6.5' beds and confirmed to fit the 2014 Ram 1500. This will match very well with the AirBedz Truck Bed Air Mattress w/ Built-In Pump, # 341002 and you can use the Wheel Well Inserts for AirBedz, # 341006 when the mattress is to be used outside of the truck bed. There is not an add-on screen room for the Rightline Truck Bed Tent, # RL110730. You would need to purchase something that stands alone from truck bed tent.
