Great MODs and great presentation. I must point out that when installing new headlights, you must open the access cover in each wheel well to release the lock by pushing up on the white latch on the rear of the headlight and relock it on the new assembly by pulling down.
That is a huge step to miss. You would be quite frustrated after following these steps to find out the light STILL isnt coming out. Thanks for pointing out.
I tried the throttle response controller and while it worked, kind of. It really did not make much difference at all. The one thing it did consistently was set off my check engine light. RETURNED...
The power mirrors I got from AT didn’t have the ambient sensors so I returned them for an OEM pair. Also did the dimmable rear view mod in my Big Horn. Next up will be my trailer brake controller and possibly auto air conversion.
for the throttle controller, just know that there can be issues, they can throw accelerator pedal codes, which will have your engine light on. as well as a lot of people who have cold winters say the controller starts to have problems below -5, causing the controller to either over rev the engine, or put the truck in limp mode.
Roar makes a great pedal module as well, it's Bluetooth controlled. Also Ripp makes a great catch can. Great vid and you did that all with your nails done, nice.
I had purchasd the throttle controller some months back along with the k and n cold air intake. I love it. I tell anyone who will listen about it. Has not caused any issues with the check engine light or anything else. The pick up i get when i hit the gas is just incredible. It has many differnt modes to choose from. I give it a definite thumbs up.
There is absolutely no need for a catch can on a stock motor. If you regularly change your oil you will never have enough blowby to contaminate the airflow to the intake. If it were necessary, the factory would've put them on.
I feel the same way about cold air intakes. The engineers know what they are doing. If the vehicle needs more air or a bigger oil filter to run properly, it would have come that way stock.
Catch can is useless . I agree with the cold air intake too but I always put one on just for better look and it sounds really nice too if you spend some extra money on a good one
What my Tech professor always say. If you think that a few hundred bucks worth of parts can improve the reliability, efficiency and longevity of the car, compared to the millions of dollars spent by the manufacturer on research. Then go for it.
@MrSuperSativa different department. Engineers doesn’t take shortcuts to take the risk of recalls and lawsuits. And again what I said about aftermarkets. If the first thing that a customer does to a vehicle is slap a bolt on part and void the warranty to prevent the vehicle from a catastrophic failure then what are the engineers doing. As a tech I’ve ONLY seen and heard cars lasting long miles with just a proper preventative maintenance. Vehicles with mods, none at all.
@MrSuperSativa sounds like you’re a person stuck on the old days. I’m merely stating facts something you couldn’t handle so you try to attack me as a person, which you dont even know who I am.You understand that cars that are designed for power for racing have their engines taken apart after every race, longevity is not what they’re design for. This snotty brat will be the bigger man and say u have a nice day sir. I have better things to do than argue with a person like you.
You are absolutely incorrect about aerodynamics with bed covers. This has been beaten to death by scientists and aerospace engineers. The bed without a cover creates an air "bubble" resulting in zero inefficiency.
Why would you leave out the white handle you have to pull down inside the wheel well to remove the head light? You can remove the headlights on a 4th gen ram without removing the grill as well.
Added catch can a couple of years ago. Absolutely worth it. The amount of oil caught in this thing is astounding. Empty it about every 2-3 monthes, usually getting about 8-9 ounces of oil.
This video is really deceiving. It leaves out critical points in the removal process. It may not be difficult, but the video really just skips steps entirely. So for that I would say it is deceiving.
8:48 I got one of these and it almost got me killed. Out of nowhere while on the highway it just decided to give it all she's got and would not stop. I was able to get her off the road and yank that fucking the out. Do not buy that thing. Maybe try one with a better reputation. I think this one is cheap for a reason. It sucks. But it was fun for like a day.
My 04 Durango with the hemi literally had puddles of oil in the intake manifold, not having oil residue during the combustion cycle makes for a cleaner burn thus more power and efficiency. Sure in theory intake injection, or throttlebody inject the fuel washes over the valve to clean then to a certain degree, but the goal of a catch can is to not have the oil there in the first place. Having said that.. I've never actually installed a catch can :P
I have 2006 GMC sierra crew cab with heavy duty towing and Nevada edition equipment with 145K miles, I want to trade it in for a 09 ram SLT with 170K miles since my truck has some issues. is this worth a trade in?
Hi,we have a series of UTV and ATV ,Truck and Jeep aftermarket accessories, now we are looking for some people to evaluate the dodge ram LED tail lights , are you interested?
Throttle controller is a bonus, from the factory Ram shift points are for fuel economy and can be really annoying especially when attempting to pass other vehicles on the highway. Rams take so long to downshift it can make passing dangerous. My controller is a 9 Drive, same as the one in the video, Amazon $30 Canadian, well worth it, and it does not affect your engine computer just your throttle position signal sent to the computer.
What are those extra plugs on the headlght plugs that dosent look stock. whem i tried to make a video i was told it MUST BE STOCK guess whats good for the goose in not apply to the Gander.
Catch can sure, throttle response not likely. My 2021 1500 has perfect throttle response for 30k Km on it. Really not something to look up to, when you can get a diablo tune on it and get more out of it.
Why do TH-camrs constantly call the bolt head size the bolt size? Order a 10 mm bolt to replace one of those and you will be very unhappy. I also noticed you did not say anything about PROPER head light aiming. Improper headlight aiming, installation or improper application or design is a major problem for oncoming traffic.
How did you miss explaining the step of opening the inner fender well to access the white headlight locking clip and pulling it downward to release it from the front end/ The headlight will not come out like you did it if you dont do this step.?
Don't know about tonneau covers helping with aerodynamics... but I can say they do nothing for mileage ... I get better Highway mileage with no tonneau cover ... why ? who knows but I have proven it time and time again with my 12....
Theres a 19 ram for sale locally. My lady doesn't like them and she said no but guess what, I'm paying for it so Im buying it, f it im going for it I like Rams especially after seeing this one
Gotta say disappointed witht he last mod. I had one and after about a month (just past the warranty) it stopped working just cut off one day. It was great that it could give me 16+ mpg but once it stopped working back down to 12 I went…
Just purchased my first truck which happens to be in this model year. I would like to put a more aggressive looking tire on my truck and I like the look of the ones in this video. They appear to be the same 33” tire with a 20”wheel. Can anybody give me some details about them. Did the truck need to be modified for the size. I know very little so explain it like I am kid 😅
Will the speed foem throttle controller and the oil catch can void the warranty/ extended warranty of the truck? I do not want to add anything thay will void the extended warranty that I had to pay for.
Yeah I vote that Meredith does the videos from now on. 💯
2nd

...I vote she does all the videos.
Missed the most important step when removing headlights... teaching in from the wheel well and unhOoking the plastic tab
Yep! I watched one of their videos when I was replacing my headlights and broke the drivers side tab clean off. Great video...
That is a huge step to miss. You would be quite frustrated after following these steps to find out the light STILL isnt coming out. Thanks for pointing out.
I was getting ready to say the same thing because I've replaced my headlights already
Mine didn’t have that but the instructions that came with told me to
Meredith 👀❗️ Gorgeous & She Works On Her Own Vehicle 😍🤤
Simp
Don't. Be talking about my future wife bro.
she also cant use a ratchet
Hardest part to these mods is finding the stolen 10 mm sockets. Good luck!
Pretty sure Amazon sells packs of 10 so you'll never run out! 😉 -Zach
@@AmericanTrucksRam oh, I think you underestimate the powers of 10mm. That shit will STILL disappear lol. Good to know tho! Thank you 😊
Why is that ALWAYS the one missing?!?!
You are the best, I appreciate you making this video & taking your time ❤️ #teamram
I came for the Mods, stayed for Meredith
Me too 😊
Nice........Oh, and the truck looks good also !

Classic Rams are so freaken good looking it's crazy.
This isn’t a class. This gen of rams only ended like 3-4 years ago

Just got my 2010 Ram big horn SLT 😎 love it!
She needs to do the videos 😍
The power mirrors I got from AT didn’t have the ambient sensors so I returned them for an OEM pair. Also did the dimmable rear view mod in my Big Horn. Next up will be my trailer brake controller and possibly auto air conversion.
Auto air conversion is useless
mine never lit up and no air temp sensor.
They should put ugly chicks or dudes on here cause she’s definitely a distraction 🤫. Nice mods

Thank you Merideth 😃
The running board looked pretty cheap. When she stepped on it, you could see it flex downward!
I just bought a Dodge Ram and I'm about to do some mods, Thanks Merideth
If you bought a Dodge Ram it must be an old one. From 1999 and up they are just RAM.

Those headlights looked like some rewiring was previously done. So plug and play you say?

Ok ok ok, yes I came back to watch this video for the 5th time 🤷🏾♂️ leave me alone 😆 😍
I’ve watched this video 10x and missed every thing she said cause her hips kept distracting me 😅
I’m in love great job Meredith ❤️👍🏽
Thanks for watching! -Zach
I see I'm not alone with the eye candy.💯😎🍻
Just picked up a '10 LT... Not much in this thing at all, I foresee about 5k in fancy coming....
The hardest part of this job will be finding a 10 mm
Good evening, did you have to adjust the head lights? Could you show a video on how to adjust them also? Thank you
Just curious, any word on how good any of these mods are? Specifically headlights.

Nobody has a 10mm socket! That is NOT an easy mod.
I’ve lost mine a couple times 😂

Been waiting for this video! Since I have 2020 classic and have to get 2018 parts.
Thanks for watching, Jack! We appreciate it! -Zach
I like the appearance of that ram. Is it stock height? What are the specs of the wheel and tire set up and does it have a spacer?
I would love to know as well. Wheel/tire size looks perfect. Would love to know if it's stock suspension
Does the catch can mod work with the Ecodiesel?
what size tires are those?
Do they have the mod that stops the lifters from failing and killing the cam???????????
You don’t need to remove your grill to change headlights out all you need is a extension
What lights can you get with projector headlights not many cheeper good options
Whooooo is sheeee lord!
I second the nomination
Projector headlights should be illegal. They blind everyone in front of you. Factory lights aren't bright enough? SLOW DOWN!!

Don't know about tonneau covers helping with aerodynamics... but I can say they do nothing for mileage ... I get better Highway mileage with no tonneau cover ... why ? who knows but I have proven it time and time again with my 12....
There are studies on this. Cover creates more surface area. No cover air builds up in bed creating a bubble that the moving air moves over easier.
I watched a pretty long aerodynamic video, the best was a full cab level cap, tonneau, tailgate off, tailgate up and worst was tailgate down.....
