35-36 trade number given over phone.  not sure how i feel about that

i was hoping for north of 40 to push a new truck build, i guess i need to look at real numbers for tax benifit, flatbed stuff ect

hate the chrome package on my truck

you loose fog lights though without it

losing 4 Alcoas is a 1200$ option also.   (outers and steers only)

looks cheap, unless painted to match the sheetmetal then that'd be tits.

I like the flat black way better then the chrome.  the 4500/5500 front extended flares are already that color and texture anyway. 



11.6 flat bed with taper corner quote looks good



day 2, the 4500 is still torn apart haha

They are worth the $1200

Rusted steel wheels look horrible.

[M4wdFab]

i think factory steel wheels should last 3-4 years.  id rather paint them black when they get wrapped with 245s anyway

plus the alcoas are like soft butter, i dinged the crap out of one just laying it down on pavement when i rotated my steers.

this chart bothers me in so many ways

The Ram Max Tow package includes a new transfer case gear set and chain and sprocket upgrades, recalibrated transmission software and an enhanced collection of thermal management devices.

Max Tow is available on Ram Chassis Cab trucks equipped with the optional, commercial-grade Aisin six-speed automatic transmission and 4.88 rear-axle ratio. A 4.44 axle is standard on 4500 models and not available with the Max Tow package. A class-exclusive six-speed manual transmission is standard on Ram 4500 and 5500 Chassis Cab models.

after actually looking at the math, i dont think i want 4.10s





what i have now G56 / 225s / 4.44 rear / 6 speed 0.74 OD

68MPH = 2383 RPM



A Aisin AS69RC with 225s / 4.10 / 6th gear lock 0.63 OD

68MPH = 1874 RPM

A Aisin AS69RC with 225s / 4.44 / 6th gear lock 0.63 OD

68MPH = 2029 RPM

A Aisin AS69RC with 225s / 4.88/ 6th gear lock 0.63 OD

68MPH = 2230 RPM

all back together but knock sensor elbow issue, something about needing another part overnight-ed because of a update that was made with the new turbo PN.  should be done tomorrow.
