Made my skin crawl when you put that car wash brush on the paint! Sure way to scratch and swirl the paint job

[@GreenMountainProjects]

My paint has been fucked up since I bought the truck, plans to get it repainted and when I do that I will really care about that!

[@teaminfiniti4105]

@@GreenMountainProjects I'll never buy another black one. I'm about to try that DYC method and change the color.

[@GreenMountainProjects]

@@teaminfiniti4105 I feel you there annoying how easy it is to see scratches and dirt. Be wary I have tried painting things on mine and drastically failed. Not as easy as some videos make it look. Really need right pain and a good 2K clear coat and preferably a paint prayer and an indoor place to paint.

[@teaminfiniti4105]

@@GreenMountainProjects oh yeah I'm definitely not doing it myself

[@jamesluckey7534]

Thank you so mych for the vid. I’ve been looking every where for some vids on a 3rd gen 1500 but could only find Cummins. I’ve got the exact same truck. So it’s nice to see ideas.

[@GreenMountainProjects]

I’m glad! Why I started the Chanel!

[@Tylerholland6]

I had those Atturo trail blade xt’s, they don’t last very long so I switched to kenda klevers and they’ve been really good and they’re the same price

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Really, I had good luck with their life span. Mine were also 10ply. If you had 6 ply that could explain it.

[@jozhuwah1393]

“Took that in the middle of the back one day, feels like a bitch” haha I feel the pain man

[@tech4u680]

Great video I got a 06 Dodge ram thunder road an I'm looking at doing some upgrades

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Go for it!

[@freddybarba420]

Tanks for your video i what it to lift my truck I didn’t know what kind a lift kit Will install on it I was thinking: 4 inches when I seen your truck looks perfect I also have a 2006 ram I’m thinking of using it for overland

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Freddy Barba good luck an overloading vehicle is something I have always wanted to do it haven’t gotten around to it!

[@barrybrisco9713]

I overland in my 08 when I can. I did the leveling kit too but on the rear I used the shackles

[@0theamazingone]

Nice truck I have an 08 Ram 1500

[@diamondperfectcommunicatio8598]

man really enjoyed your video I have an 07 im trying to get to look like that & your truck its exactly the way i dream my truck could look so i really appreciate the inspiration 100

[@ALEX-OUTDOOR-THINGS]

Is that a stock bumper which model bumper is that?

[@GreenMountainProjects]

stevostevo 72 just a stock plastic bumper, it is a Laramie

[@RamandChevyOwner]

Hey if you still have your truck I highly recommend general grabber apt tires 60k mile warranty and don’t really hummm in 06 and are really good off-road

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Thanks! I don’t have it anymore but I now have a 4gen with falken Wildpeaks and couldn’t love them more. I’m close to 60k on them and at least another 5-10k of life in them. They are amazing off-road and quiet as well.

[@RamandChevyOwner]

No problem

[@matthewfinn2646]

Did the 42" led bar bolt right up or did you have to fabricate a bracket?

[@GreenMountainProjects]

I just drilled a hole through the steel inner bumper and bolted through it. No bracket needed!

[@danielaraujo44]

So for your sub you literally just cut the piece of counter top and made the shape of the sub and the truck?

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Yes! you could use a pice of thicker plywood or something like that. I would recommend a hard wood plywood like maple to give it decent acoustics. I basically cut the shape and used large metal screws in the front and the seat securing bolts In the rear.

[@danielaraujo44]

Awesome! Thanks it certainly makes someone same some money!

[@marcusfriesen1299]

Nice truck! I have a 2008 ram 1500 hemi. Was wondering how much difference in fuel mileage there was with the lift and the bigger tires?

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Thanks! Its not really that noticeable, might have lost an mpg or two but nothing crazy.

[@marcusfriesen1299]

@@GreenMountainProjects thank you very much, will probably do a similar set up that you have there on my truck

[@smooveb191]

Do you or Andy have a video on how you hooked the system.

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Smoove B the audio system? I have a video installing the radio.

[@smooveb191]

the sub under the seat i have a old 10 inch sub and a amp .

[@markveith9468]

Im looking to buy a 1500 big horn 2006-2008 its hard to find one with lower miles in good shape...i really like your mods man. Has your transmission held up? Is it original

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Yeah nothing at all and its not like I baby it either

[@g-ridez1460]

Get one that's not Rusted AF

[@mcf1gtr]

To change it to a 21/2inch lift don't I need to buy new springs and other components in the suspension?

[@GreenMountainProjects]

mcf1gtr No depends on the lift kit. Rough Country’s lifts utilizes the factory parts. You wouldn’t need to do that till you get into the 4”+ of lift

[@MrPinkyRingy]

Awesome truck. Now put your cover on.

[@theurbanartist775]

Would you trust the wheel spacers to tow everyday with? I have the same truck fixed up pretty nice with stock 20” and Atturo mud tires. I want a little poke though 🤞🏼

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Howard Covington Wheel spacers are not what would fail it’s the stress on your ball joints and other parts like that, but I ran them for two years and would tow a large sized bass boat or landscaping sized trailer all the time. Just pay attention to your truck, do the normal checks for ball joint wear and lug tightening a little more often and you should be fine!

[@theurbanartist775]

Man I need to showcase my Ram. I’ve had her a little over a year and put $20k in her! New motor, sound system, lift, mud tires, everything has been replaced. And ohhh weee those 10” skar sound awesome in it🥴

[@553finley]

Do you have a video showing how you installed your led pod fog lights

[@GreenMountainProjects]

553finley I don’t have one, but in the fog light well there’s a slot on the top you can slide a bolt through and then clamp in with washers on either sideTo attach the LED pod bracket, I have another video on my newer ram that has LED light wiring to show you how to do that.

[@553finley]

Thank you for the information you gave me

[@thenewlife.pt2724]

Hey brother ? Was your blackout or you painted your bumper and grill

[@randycorcoran4539]

To funny looked of 06 dodge and find video in my state that’s what’s up

[@barrybrisco9713]

Anything else for fuel mileage? I have a 08 , 12 mpg not good but the truck is great off road

[@GreenMountainProjects]

yeah mine was just about averaging 12mpg

[@starman9458]

I get an average of 14.7 mpg

[@anthonylabella3539]

Hi tom, based on your large towing mirrors I can tell that you are an intelligent man. im looking for a car i can drive underwater, would you recommend something like this big truck or should i look at something more like a bugatti chiron? Just made the transition to fully living in the ocean so im looking for a vehicle that can support that!

[@TheHowToCorrectly]

Anthony LaBella i can tell he was a smart man when he washed his black truck with the car wash brush lol!

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Well if you live in the ocean you won’t have to worry about ever washing and “using the car wash brush” so I think you made a great decision! I would greatly recommend you getting a Tesla because I hear their electrical systems are waterproof to my understanding... could be wrong though so lmk how it works out for you.

[@aidankerr6685]

With your lift kit, did that level you out or do you still have front tilt? if so what is your differential?

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Aidan Kerr the kit lifts the front 2.5” and the rear about 1”, this gives it a leveled look with no front tilt or rake.

[@gilbertojones6788]

i call all that spaggetti under the hood... a fire hazard..

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Spaghetti i agree it was temporary lol. A fire can only happen if wire gauge is too small and are overloaded. Also a lack of safety measures like fuzes could cause that... Which it has.... so that's why 5 years later is has yet to bun to the ground lol. also on a side note, if they were all tightly bundled up together neatly wouldn't that be more of an issue for melting and sparking??

[@austine4784]

What's a good price range for these trucks bc I really want one

[@GreenMountainProjects]

I would highly recommend! just check for body rust if you live in a place with snow. People like to hid the rear fender rust holes under plastic fenders. Best bet is to look it up on Kelly Blue Book for a fair used price. I purchased that one which is a 2006 model with 130k miles for $12k. hope this help, good luck finding one.

[@angelrueda925]

hey to which wire on the signal bulb did you connect the halos and the leds to?

[@GreenMountainProjects]

I connected them to the daytime running lights, honestly don’t remember what wire exactly bc I made this video a few years ago. I usually just make my best guess possible and if I’m wrong I re connect the cut wire and shrink wrap it to protect it again.

[@angelrueda925]

oh bet bet, i might just do that too, i just got those exact same lights today and i couldn’t find which wire was the daytime running but i appreciate!

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Angel Rueda Yeah it could be one of the wires that goes to the orange marker bulb, just ,ale sure it’s not the one that is the turn signal

[@angelrueda925]

i just finished doing the wiring and yep it was the middle wire of the turning bulb

[@caseywade2884]

What did you do to your rims? Plastic dip?

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Black aerosol wheel paint you can get at a Lowes

[@eragonshadeslayer1]

I justice bought an 06 ram 1500 4x4 mega cab, with a road ripper 2000 transmission, a 6 inch lift, with 6k in rim's and tires, over all my truck is worth around 20k, I'll have a video of it on my channel going up real soon so check it out and tell me what you think

[@GreenMountainProjects]

Eragon Shadeslayer looks like a great set up! Just a little worried you got ripped off if your wheels and tires are $6k!

Fine.
