As a body tech this video put me on edge (working with the airbag while it's still receiving power is a BIG NO, NO.) But this video is useful, so thank you.
That is one brave mechanic to remove that airbag without disconnecting the battery. I've removed those many times without incident and have seen people try to remove them and almost get killed when the airbag deployed. Glad it worked out though.
little late here..... regarding the wiring is it just plug the harness back in? You didnt show where the electrical harness was connected at, and if you just plug it back in without having to rewire anything? About to do this swap myself but want to make sure its just plug and play, like if i need to rewire the harness to accomodate the radio control back buttons?
I have a ram 2014 ram 1500 that for some reason the cruise control button has stopped working (i think its jammed) do you think if i replace the steering wheel like in your video it could fix my issue?
Where did you get the wheel from? What head unit did you use? I have a Ram Tradesman 1500 and I have that plain radio and I want a head unit with backup cam
Looks like I should shut my mouth. I purchased on 1/7/2020 for 47.44 shipped from all mopar parts.com. They have it up to 146.28! Crazy, I must have got a steal or they had it mispriced when I purchased. Sorry bud!
Seth, so to clarify (cause I’m buying a steering wheel similar to yours), you didn’t have to buy a wiring harness for the volume controls to work? They were already in the column?
Awww man, I miss driving a manual... What I don't like about my steering wheel is I can't goose the horn; the only option seems to be this loud obnoxious blast.
Greeneville? That is the closest Video I have seen. I am in J.C. I looked at your vid. Good job. I am trying to move controls. I want volume & presets on left side.
Sean Mason thanks man yeah I hated the small cluster screen and the small radio. Let me know when you do the radio I got mine with the whole kit for the swap off a guy on fb
Swapped in the same cluster to my 13 express, but I don’t get the Ram animation on start up. It goes straight to a TPMS reading failure and the fuel mileage isn’t accurate. Any help?
Is your truck a 2019 or 2018 I am trying to look for a kit that will plug and play but everywhere I look they are saying the steering wheel volume controls will not work on a 2019.
Nick Barry I have to pin it to the back of the video output on the radio. Never got to that yet doesn’t really bother me I can see it in my rear view camera
Where did you find the radio? Just bought my 2019 and I have the crappy little screen. I wanna upgrade to the same one you have so I keep the factory look. How hard was it? Plug and play?
I wish they made gas ones manual sucks only diesel can get that option I want a manual but can't afford a diesel truck since there almost double the price
I got here seeing what 40's on 20" rims look like but for my 17 MegaCab and found the 3500 stuff. Mine is Longhorn (Lonestar for Texas) only missing a couple of the nice things that a Laramie doesn't have and the OBD changes I know that can be done. Only thing probably hardest to do is the surround sound and woofer Alpine stereo from a Bighorn to put in Tradesman, as the speakers in the roof in the rear make it sound nice.
And funny, I just got back yesterday from whole family trip to Tennessee, just east side of center of Tennessee. If we randomly saw you, I would have said "look honey your color on my truck". She likes Ryobi similar color of green.
So.. not a matter of minutes.. it might cost you $100 for a wheel, but it's gonna cost majority of American's $500 in labor fees and a "2 hour install time" while they wait in a stealership lobby sipping stale coffee.
I tried to watch but I just can't do it. Over two minutes of riding around?? Just do something already. There may be something interesting at the end, I didn't make it that far. Such a waste.
Where did you buy the steering wheel. I need a new one on my Laramie. For some reason my leather steering wheel is delaminating at the top pretty badly. It’s driving me nuts. I miss my G56 transmission, however I also have the Aisin which I love.
As a body tech this video put me on edge (working with the airbag while it's still receiving power is a BIG NO, NO.) But this video is useful, so thank you.
TH-cam crazy mopar master tech didn’t seem to be scared about it lol
@@SethRighi it won't scare you till it goes off😆
was thinking the same

Do you know the accuracy of that ford dealership comment you made???
You're 100% completely right on point. Lmafo
Beautiful! Seems quicker and less expensive than replacing the clock spring
Ty for video swapping out my old steering on 2010 Laramie. The rig sounds awesome btw.
Is it the same cables? No replacements?
Great video.. 👍 Thank you for these easy to follow step by step videos... us poor guys really need them. 😅
Couldn’t have said it better!
Nice to have friends at the Steeler

will the steering wheel from a 2019 5th gen 1500 work on my 2020 tradesman 2500 thanks im getting no help online
Do you have video and parts list for everything on the radio to upgrade it
Does the heated steering wheel function work or is more needed for this function?
where besides the dealership can i find a 18 - 21 warlock that has a heated steering wheel i can get for my truck
Where did you get your used Ram parts from
My truck don't have cruise. Will my cruise work? I have a wheel with it all
I know this is an old video but did you have to have any wiring or programming to make the wheel controls work?
Do u have to program.this..to make it wrk..I have a Express model
I have a ram 2014 ram 1500 that for some reason the cruise control button has stopped working (i think its jammed) do you think if i replace the steering wheel like in your video it could fix my issue?
What year is your truck? Will this work for a 2012 2500?
Why you dont have the backup camera signal in the radio? Is easy to get that signal.
changchung factory it came in the rear view camera I haven’t connected it to the screen yet I’ve got the rear cargo camera to connect too
@@SethRighi Nice. It will be nice get both signals in the radio.
Can you possible add the power heated steering wheel to a 2013 ram 1500 that doesn’t have the heated steering wheel originally
Yes
Yes but have to add the seat module too I believe.
I love that truck
Off Road N Chill Español me too took forever to find but so worth it!
I just bought a 2016 Ram 2500 I want to do the stereo upgrade do you still have a person to buy this from
honest review how was the 3500 lasted. any problems what so ever?
Zero issues love it
@@SethRighi how many miles on it?
@@nathanbrinker1149 22k used mostly for towing my boat and race trailer
Did you not have to program the controls? Or was it plug and play?
did the volume bottons work that were on the back of the new steering wheel?
Yes
My question if I pull a steering wheel off a hellcat, will it fit on my ram 1500??
Always enjoy ur videos,luv what u done to ur truck,and the green,what u got covered with the cover
Where did you get the wheel from? What head unit did you use? I have a Ram Tradesman 1500 and I have that plain radio and I want a head unit with backup cam
I know this video is kinda old but do you still have the old wheel??? Mine has the runner torn .
I have a crazy Idea could I upgrade to that type of steering wheel with the new airbag from a 03 ram 1500?
No
Is heated steering works?
So was there anything special u needed like wiring or anything like that
So no additional wiring needed, just plug and play? With stock 5.0 radio also?
Paul E yes sir!
Seth Righi Awesome, thanks! Just bought a 2017 Express 1500 this weekend, gonna give it some love.
Just an FYI you can get the bezel, switches, and wiring harness factory mopar for $40 shipped.
Link to that please?
Looks like I should shut my mouth. I purchased on 1/7/2020 for 47.44 shipped from all mopar parts.com. They have it up to 146.28! Crazy, I must have got a steal or they had it mispriced when I purchased. Sorry bud!
I was wondering about that price. Glad you got a deal on it
Do you know if it would be the same if i were to do this to my SLT. since i have no buttons at all on wheel. or would i need to add harness?
All the same
What did you do with old wheel? I have an express and my right side buttons don't work. Interested in buying it if you still have it.
I’m taking mine off if you still need it.
Dang bro ur truck is beautiful
You didn’t have to flash or program anything?
No plug and play
Did you have to buy a different clock spring?
Do you have any link where to buy the cluster , radio and wheel
How did you upgrade the gauge cluster? I want to upgrade mine to that it looks so much cleaner!
there is a video on my channel of it!
Ive been looking and looking and cant find a leather wheel with controls any chance you could point me in the right direction
Nice cluster! I have a express same junky steering wheel. No control for radio!
you should do a tutorial on how you installed the stereo
Im going to make one today so stay tuned!
It’s up now
@@SethRighi link to stero
Did you have to change the rear view mirrior to have the microphone and also did you have to get the steering wheel wiring harness
liking the vids man keep it up! any more plans for the cummins?
yes sir don't think the mods are going to slow down any time soon lol looking into adding some power steps next
You guys should figure out how to add adaptive cruise without buying a new truck.
Seth, so to clarify (cause I’m buying a steering wheel similar to yours), you didn’t have to buy a wiring harness for the volume controls to work? They were already in the column?
Correct.
Awww man, I miss driving a manual... What I don't like about my steering wheel is I can't goose the horn; the only option seems to be this loud obnoxious blast.
So you didn’t have to hook up the steering wheel controls at all?
kolbey bowen yeah the factory harness is there
nice looking truck luv the green
Thanks 👍
It’s able to control the stereo unit.?
And how much for the cost of labor to upgrade. I always wanted mine be done too
Greeneville? That is the closest Video I have seen. I am in J.C. I looked at your vid. Good job. I am trying to move controls. I want volume & presets on left side.
Nick Wood awesome yeah I live in gray lol
Beautiful truck sir luv the green
Nice g56 you got there. I wish my 18 tradesman g56 had a nicer radio. Mine is teeny tiny and my back up camera is in the rear view mirror.
viesel yeah you can always upgrade tho
Awesome video, I just added the Laramie cluster to mine and have a longhorn steering wheel waiting to go on lol. Need to do the radio next.
Sean Mason thanks man yeah I hated the small cluster screen and the small radio. Let me know when you do the radio I got mine with the whole kit for the swap off a guy on fb
Does the guy sell them all the time? Info please? I also went with a gas cluster lol
Sean Mason yes sir he’s on the 6.7 groups on fb Don Korshank is his name shoot him a message
Swapped in the same cluster to my 13 express, but I don’t get the Ram animation on start up. It goes straight to a TPMS reading failure and the fuel mileage isn’t accurate. Any help?
What size torques
Is your truck a 2019 or 2018 I am trying to look for a kit that will plug and play but everywhere I look they are saying the steering wheel volume controls will not work on a 2019.
2018 a 2019 classic is the same
What year is this beautiful transmission?
2018
Real video starts at 4:00
What would it take to get your backup camera to show up on the 8 inch screen? Do you need a new camera wiring or a programming issue?
Nick Barry I have to pin it to the back of the video output on the radio. Never got to that yet doesn’t really bother me I can see it in my rear view camera
Sounds good too
Where were you able to find steering wheel
marketplace on Facebook
Where did you find the radio? Just bought my 2019 and I have the crappy little screen. I wanna upgrade to the same one you have so I keep the factory look. How hard was it? Plug and play?
It’s very easy to do can be pricey though
Hey was this a plug and play swap? Did you have to hook up a scanner for the buttons to work?
Plug and play
Do you need a harness for the radio control ?
Another question. What about the Leds color in the new steering wheel? They are the same color of the original?
changchung yeah swapped them out from my other wheel
@@SethRighi Ok... another video for that... hahaha
Hey man I’ve been looking for the new leather steering wheel and I can’t find one (not beat to shit) for the life of me. Where’d you get it?
And u didn’t have to take ur stock radio out for wiring like that right just took the old one off and put the new one on
Yes plug and play
Did you buy steering wheel online or around your town?
fb marketplace
That wheel will work with the set radio
Tradesmen radio
I just got a 2018 3500 dually tradesmen, I will definitely subscribe and get some ideas, thx for your videos.
pro tip: you can watch movies on kaldrostream. Me and my gf have been using them for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Ronald Rohan yea, have been using KaldroStream for since december myself =)
what tint level you got on your front strip thank you
Chris Beckzz 5%
@@SethRighi oh woow I'm trying to get my whole windshield tinted but 5% will be too much right?
Chris Beckzz mine is 15% and it’s perfect imo. Been on 5% and it was a bit much.
Death Squad for a tint strip? 5 is great
Chris Beckzz my front isn’t tinted just the strip
I wish they made gas ones manual sucks only diesel can get that option I want a manual but can't afford a diesel truck since there almost double the price
Where are you ordering the parts?
Dylan Rutt fb marketplace and a 4th gen parts page
Might as well put together a cluster of the videos, "How to change a Tradesman into a Bighorn"
I got here seeing what 40's on 20" rims look like but for my 17 MegaCab and found the 3500 stuff. Mine is Longhorn (Lonestar for Texas) only missing a couple of the nice things that a Laramie doesn't have and the OBD changes I know that can be done.

How much for the other one
Alex Rangel $50
Couldnt you just buy the bezel and install it for 48$
Nice upgrade, man! What year is your truck? Mine is a 2014 Ram SLT.
I wonder if this would work for my year of a truck
2018 and yes it works on a 2013 and up
People think my truck is a higher model too...took me 3 years but still...the radio is what cost the most
u installed the stereo?
yes sir!
Buddy. Where is the part when the guy unclipped the airbag out? 🤔🤔🤔
changchung towards the beginning when I talk about the mirror and pick he uses
@@SethRighi No that part. When the guy take the airbag of the steering. No the connectors
Is like a jump in the 4:50 is already out but before the airbag is in place
changchung that’s all that holds it
changchung it’s hanging by one connection and we unplugged it that’s all that was left you can see it hanging before I show it out
Idk where this absolute madman found a used wheel like this, I got nothing
Fb marketplace
Thanks for share.
changchung thanks for the feedback
"Should of took. . . .?" ?? Wha ?? Try "Should have taken. . . ."
a few minutes for a tech...your bill won't be a few minutes! You got a hook up...not everyone can do this.
I thought you were upgrade to a heated steering wheel :(
Skip to 4:05 to avoid the intro
Battery should be unplugged
If your friend did it in a few minutes, then why do they charge ( a few hours to do it) on paper? This world is evil...
Cause he just works there doesn’t make the rules
So.. not a matter of minutes.. it might cost you $100 for a wheel, but it's gonna cost majority of American's $500 in labor fees and a "2 hour install time" while they wait in a stealership lobby sipping stale coffee.

We don't need to see you drive to a shop
Amateur....
No cars in the shop??? Where's all the business????
Over 4 min wasted in intro. Thought this was a DIY instructional. Later.
See ya ✌🏽
One remover the battery cables also your not helpful you showed nothing actually helpful
