  • Why is Cutout Measurement More Than Depth Measurement for Furrion 2-in-1 Range Oven
  • From my understanding there are some connections that need to be made behind the Furrion 2-in-1 Range Oven with Glass Cover - 21" Tall # FR97KR. Making a little more room at the back would allow those connections to be made without pinching anything.

  • Where to Install Safety Chains on Curt Q24 5th Wheel Hitch # C16545-16021
  • On the Curt Q24 5th Wheel Hitch # C16545-16021 safety chain attachment points are not included because unlike a gooseneck hitch, 5th wheels do not require safety chains. You will see that on gooseneck hitch # BWGNRK1314 from B&W safety chain attachment u-bolts are included. Please see the linked photo I have prepared for you.

  • Is The Extang Trifecta ALX Soft Tonneu Bed Cover Folding - Vinyl Easy To Remove
  • Since you do not need to install any rails for the Extang Trifecta ALX Soft Tonneau Bed Cover - Folding - Vinyl, part # EX42TR, installation and removal is really simple. This tonneau cover is a traditional tri-fold design that rests on top of the bed rails.

  • Is it Normal for PSI to Increase in Air Bags After Loading 2020 Ram 3500
  • Yes, we have actually spoken to the manufacturer before and it's completely normal for the psi to increase pretty significantly on air bags like your Firestone Ride-Rite # F2616 once the truck is all loaded up or under weight from a connected trailer. What they do recommend though just to ensure proper load support is to first get the truck bed loaded (or hook up your trailer) and then add the necessary air to the bags to create a level ride. I have included the full install manual below...

  • Is Prodigy P3 Brake Controller an Easy Install on a 2018 Ram 3500
  • Yes, the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 can install very easily on your 2018 Ram 3500 and will work really well as it's considered by most to be the best brake controller ever made. All you need to install it is the part # 3024-P which easily plugs in under the dash of your truck. I attached an install video for the P3 on a 2017 Ram just like yours that uses the # 3024-P for you to check out as well.

  • Arm Placement & Installation of B&W Companion
  • I suggest beginning with placement in the forward position and at mid range range on your B&W Companion, # BWRVK3300, or any other hitch. Please note the linked installation video. The fifth-wheel hitch's height setting is taken by measuring from the ground to the king pin, then from the ground to your truck bed. Then subtract the second measurement from the first for the proper height setting. There should be 5-6" of clearance between the back of your truck and your fifth wheel. Please...

  • Can The Edge Juice CS2 Tuner # EP31407 Perform A DEF Delete And/Or Prevent LIMP Mode Temporarily?
  • I just got off the phone with Edge Performance and the Edge Juice Cs2 Performance Tuner # EP31407 along with any other product they make will not touch any emission codes. So they cannot help you delete the DEF on your 2017 Ram 3500 nor can they temporarily clear the code to prevent LIMP mode. Your only option to prevent LIMP mode from ever happening would be to take your truck to a custom shop and have them tune it out. That being said, if you do have a shop delete the DEF on your truck...

  • Should Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit Wear Pads Be Greased
  • According to Roadmaster, you can grease the Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension # RM-2460-2570 wear pads if you want to. If you choose to do this, they recommend marine grease like # L54FR. The reason you don't see anything about adding grease or any maintenance in the instructions is because it is not required.

  • Bypassing Integrated Brake Controller on 2016 Ram 3500 Tradesman with Prodigy P3
  • To install an aftermarket brake controller like the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 on a 2016 Dodge Ram that has the factory integrated controller you will have to disconnect the ITBM (Integrated Trailer Brake Module). Doing so will turn on a warning lamp on the instrument cluster. 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...

  • Can Ram Truck with Ram Box Bed Tow Fifth Wheel Trailer
  • The bed rails of the RamBox trucks are much narrower than standard truck bed rails so the only solution is to install a Sidewinder like # RP34FR on the trailer and use a fixed fifth wheel hitch in the bed of the truck. This setup raises the pivot point up higher which allows the truck to pivot under the trailer without interference. You won't be able to use your PullRite hitch though as it slides automatically and the Sidewinders aren't compatible with that or their hitch head style. If...

  • Can Plow Install Brackets and Westin HDX Grille Guard Both Install at Same Time
  • If you were okay with totally removing the HDX Grille Guard part # 57-3550 before installing the plow mount this would work, but since both attach to the same part of the truck frame you wouldn't be able to easily have both mounted at the same time. I attached a picture that shows what the brackets of this grille guard look like installed.

  • Where To Install The Output Line For The Lippert Floë Freshwater Drain System
  • The Floë Integrated Drain Down System # LC88FR is going to be installed in the line that runs between the the fresh water tank and filter/water pump. Basically this means before the water pump and filter, which will keep the water and air pressure from the Floë all going in one direction. If you place it after the pump or filter then it would force air the backwards through these components, damaging them. 15 psi is relatively low compared the 40-50psi water pressure normally on your...

  • Finding Local Installer for Install of Firestone Air Command Compressor Kit
  • Performance shops that do installs would be the most familiar with air bag compressor kits like the Firestone Air Command I # F2097 that you referenced. Especially ones that cater to the off-road community. Or a local mechanic that operates an independent shop with a solid reputation. Most likely calling shops local to you would either be willing to do the install or point you to a nearby shop who would. I attached an install video link for this for you to check out as well.

  • Installation Video of Draw-Tite Front-Mount Hitch 65063 on 2014 Ram 3500 HD
  • Draw-Tite front-mount 2-inch hitch # 65063 is shown in the linked video being installed on a 2014 Ram 3500 like yours. This hitch requires that your truck have the factory-installed tow hooks. The other front-mount hitch option for your truck, Curt hitch # C31067, does not require the tow hooks but installation will involve some drilling and fascia trimming as well as temporary loosening of the front bumper. Written instructions for both hitches are linked for your reference along with...
