I've got a 19 RAM Big Horn 5.7. I replaced the muffler with Flow master and removed the two resonaters. Made a big difference in the sound....no drone at highway speeds. Also have a afe cold air intake. Runs great and sounds awesome...44,000 miles with no issues.

[@ila2254]

Really appreciate how you conversationally explain details and talk about it without fanfare. Thanks for the video and tips!

[@ezekiel7497]

i just got a 2020 1500 Lonestar, first dodge, i like it

[@raulgolfs]

Just got me a used 2020 RAM Laramie and love it. Great vid man.

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Thank you, Raul! Good luck w the new truck.

How the holey heck did I not think to get a dry to swap while oiled is drying after a cleaning? Damn...good tip dude :)

[@kingpotato1022]

Thanks for the vid

[@TheKUZ]

We need a new video man! Honestly the only person on KZbin I can listen to without losing my mind. Just bought a new ram 1500 bighorn night edition and everyone else skips over the small details. It’s the same black wheels it has a moon roof etc. the people want the small details this guy provides. Give us an update homie!!

[@TruckCentral]

Working on some big videos right now. They’ll be up soon 🍻

[@jimlove3795]

Great to see you again sir. I’ve done similar mods to the Longhorn. One mod I thoroughly enjoy is the resonator delete from B2 Fabrications. Made a huge difference in sound without breaking the bank. Not sure if I want to replace the tips. Your truck still looks great for as many miles on it now. Be safe out there my friend.

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Thanks Jim. Been thinking about the resonator deletes. I’ll check out the ones from B2. Appreciate it!

[@ThePhil1187]

I replaced my muffler with the B2 aggressive bolt on kit, did the B2 resonator delete, and put the B2 black tips on mine. Cold starts sound amazing and once it warms up it quiets down a bit. The larger tips look great on these trucks IMO. It fills the gaps a little better and looks more aggressive. My old ‘14 ram had a Flowmaster Outlaw muffler kit on it and it had a deeper tone and never got quiet after it warmed up. I’m kind of wanting to try the B2 straight pipe out to see if I can get it back to the sound of my old ‘14 but I’m afraid my neighbors might not be too happy in the early mornings 😂

[@burtydeeds]

Always enjoy your vids and what you've done to your Ram. Are you still running the West Coast wheel spacers with your new Ridge Grapplers?

[@jrvane11]

Loved my Pedal Commander on my Tundra, which recently passed away in an accident (not my fault LOL!). Got a 2021 Ram Lamamie with 26K miles on it being delivered soon (hopefully today), and I already ordered a Pedal Commander for it. Also plan to get the S&B CAI. Trying to make the transition from Tundra to RAM as painless as possible. Man, I loved my Tundra...but I am looking forward to driving the RAM.

[@gray_wolverine63]

Thank you. I just ordered the Black CARVEN DIRECT-FIT EXHAUST TIPS for my 2022 Ram Rebel. 🇺🇲👍🏼

Good choice!

[@dwayne1172]

Thx for this comment! I have the night edition with chrome tips. Much rather em blacked out!

[@spiderninjja]

Hey man, have you looked into the comma 3? It adds "auto pilot" to most vehicles including our truck. I have one on my 2022 limited and it's amazing I have done 6651 miles on it so far and I don't think I could drive without it. Its plug in play takes maybe 10 mins to install. It also works as a dash cam. You don't need to keep your hands on the wheel as long as you're looking at the road. And will do lane changes when you turn on the blinker.. It's no Tesla. But it does work well and while towing. It's about $1700 and it also can work as a dash cam. I run a fork of the software called sunnypilot If you need any info let me know Just thought you might like it seeing how much you drive. lol

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Thank you sir!

[@JohnSmith-ev1sm]

Unfortunately the pedal commander and other devices like that, don't actually remove lag. They just shorten the distance your foot needs to move to make the same power. So if you were to mash the pedal in both your truck (with pedal commander) and mine (without), both trucks will respond equally. I wish there was a way to actually remove the lag. I had one for a while, but though it felt better on the road, in parking lots and stoplights it felt twitchy and jumpy, my foot would get strained trying to put just the right amount of power down; too little, no power, too much and suddenly you're roaring away. I had the banks pedal monster.

[@nashhalcomb5517]

Intake spacer fixed my lag...cheap easy bolt on

[@robertmoore9941]

Good video, but let me comment on the washable filters like K and N and I currently have an SNB cold air intake on my 2020 ram , what I do is wash the filter in the late afternoon and then use a fan aimed directly at the filter, overnight and then a few hours in the morning. Typically, I would do this on the weekend, and I have had good success with drying them that way keep up the good work with videos I have enjoyed them.😷😎🤪

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Not a bad idea. I generally only let the truck sit for 8-10 hours at night. But the fan might do the trick.

[@Fearmocker]

I’m really glad I found this. My 22 Ram built to serve has the etorque v6 and between 1500k and 2k rpm is dead as hell. I’ve been put in pretty hairy situations due to thinking the launch would be there and then nothing. I’m going to take your recommendation on the pedal commander and see if that solves this. TYVM.

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Awesome. Good luck man and thanks for watching.

[@Fearmocker]

@@MrJustinWheeler man what huge difference in the response at launch. I’m on sport +2 and it’s a whole new truck. Thanks for the video!

[@Jsparrvik98]

finally replaced my CV axle with more heavy duty ones no more clicking or clunking. 55k miles no issues other than that and a ac valve issue which was fixed under warranty

[@MrJustinWheeler]

AC blowing colder now?

[@Jsparrvik98]

@@MrJustinWheeler oh yea much colder they tested before and after, I'll have to find my service paper to get the exact difference. for me leaving the truck on auto blows much colder as opposed to having ac on and fan speed selected. put it on 64-68 and auto, eventually I have to switch auto off

[@charlesosborn5880]

Great info and looking to pickup a 19’ Ram 1500 limited myself. Do you have a leveling kit or air suspension mod on your truck?

[@TheManillaboys]

Any videos/updates coming up on the high mileage ram?

[@vinniecorleone62]

Great array of mods Justin, thanks for the overview of them all. I would really love to upgrade to that Diablo Tuner but it would violate my factory warranty & probably my 7 year/100K mile extended warranty.

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Thanks Vinnie! I’ve heard people say the Diablo does, and some say the Diablo doesn’t, void factory warranty. Probably depends on the circumstances and your relationship with the dealer. Luckily I’ve been out of warranty for a long time. So it was a no-brainer for me.

[@bikingwithryan5968]

Yeah it does void your warranty but it is a super good upgrade. Love my 93 Diablo tune. But it’s on a 2011 ram. Warranty long gone. High miles too. Get the pedal commander tho if you still want your warranty. Feels like you gain a ton of power.

[@JoshuaThomas_joshobean]

Great list, thanks for sharing! I'd heard for a while now that an aftermarket air filter didn't actually help or increase power with the RAMs, basically that the stock was already maxed for performance. Did you notice a difference once you installed yours? Wasn't sure how much was marketing speak vs real world improvements.

[@MrJustinWheeler]

That’s a good question. I know they claim significant air flow increase. And I can definitively say that the aftermarket filter has much more surface area. I don’t have dyno numbers to support it- but it does feel faster, and it’s cool hearing that intake suck the air in. Very happy with it.

[@Jsparrvik98]

my KN cold air intake made a big difference in exhaust sound and a smaller yet noticeable difference in induction noise. don't think a 5-12hp difference is noticeable especially on a heavy truck maybe under max tow but I def feel a difference with it on just sounds better/healthier if it makes sense

[@ridingstuffed]

You can also do the red TRX style push start button swap for like $60 bucks. ( Makes me smile every time still)

Does your truck rattle when the 4 cylinder mds activates at lower speeds? I just noticed this when I was driving around with my windows down, but it is annoying. I had the exhaust manifolds and bolts replaced a few thousand miles ago.

[@rt4476]

I have the same truck I’m looking for a Cover,that still lets me slide in a piece of plywood or sheetrock from the top with the tailgate closed. Any suggestions ? Thanks in advance

[@ichiebutt187ify]

Do we know if the Diablo tuner voids the factory warranty?

[@lord98765]

I have a 2022 Ram Classic 5.7 L and i feel like eco mode is delaying the throttle response and im having to manually gear up to turn it off everytime i put it into drive. ALso when it shuts off the cylinders it sounds like its puttering almost like it doesnt have enough power to push the weight of the truck. Its annoying. Is there a way to turn it off or do i have to go to the dealer to do it. Do i need to get a tuner or pedal commander to optimize the electronic throttle?

[@gray_wolverine63]

Question do you use up more gas Installing the cold air system. Thank you for all the information you shared. 🇺🇲👍🏼

[@ethankeating2607]

Late response, but a cold air intake can both benefit and harm gas mileage depending on how you drive it. So yes, it could use more gas if you drive it aggressively, or save you gas if you drive conservatively.

[@gray_wolverine63]

[@kelbymorgan]

Hey there Oklahoma buddy! Did you get the TSB done on the amp to help wake up the HK audio yet?

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Hey Kelby! No I haven’t. Is that something you’ve had done? If so, how long did it take? I’d like to drop it off, just can’t be without the truck for too long.

[@kelbymorgan]

@@MrJustinWheeler it is! Had it done on my 2019 Limited. Night and day difference! The sub even vibrates the back seat lol. It shouldn’t take long at all. I think they had mine for a day.

[@brettevans1422]

Have you had any problems with the leather on top of the dash coming up?

[@thehonesthiker]

I had asked this in another video of his and he had not, but I did. Mine is a 2020 and it started peeling up at about 28k miles I think, got it replaced under warranty thankfully. I do live in a hot humid environment so the combination might be what does it. I keep it garage parked at night but in the day it's sitting in baking sun with no shade, so now I make sure I have the sunroof cover closed and a sun shade up if it's sunny out. I did not do either of those things prior to it peeling up (not that you should have to). Haven't had any issues since but it has only been about 10k miles since it was replaced. Hoping they fixed the adhesive.

[@adam3493]

I am having a reoccurring issue with my 22 ram limited, and I’m wondering if you or anyone else has had this issue. Around every 4 months my battery will die and I’ll have to jump my truck, well when this happens my power running boards mess up and the passenger side running board stays stuck out and the driver side won’t stay out even when manually deploying them. It’s happened 3 times now and I’m just curious if anyone else may have seen or heard about this issue. Every time it’s happened the power running board control module needed to get replaced. Any ideas are welcome on what could be the issue. Thanks

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Hey Adam. I’ve never heard of that issue. I’m still on my second battery since brand new. What you’re experiencing definitely isn’t normal. Hopefully someone who knows what the problem is will see the comment and respond.

[@ChadDodds]

Put your key fob in a Faraday cage or box to block its signal. It can prevent the truck's proximity systems from going to sleep, causing power to drain from the battery.
