Parked it and put it up for sale. Trans has a occasional slip in 2nd and I don't feel like rebuilding a 5th trans for me this year. Would be the first for this truck. But I'm hoping to sell it and buy a commuter car and maybe a 4x4 diesel later this year.

I used KFC-6993PS 6x9's (new) and a KAC-1502s amp ($40 @the pawnshop)

I had to make some 1/4" spacer rings though because the infinity's were shallower and the magnet on the kenwoods were rubbing against the window track.

It's just temporary for me until I Get ready to Re-Vamp the entire interior.
but i'm happy with it

These fit the door without interference, and have been making good enough noise for me.

Yes they are but by having your number and wheelbase if its close to what I need then I know what to hunt for in a drive-shaft.

The new track-bar came in the post today that was nice to see and I picked up the Mopar leaf-spring perches as well.

It's amazing how differently some trucks behave when they've got a new battery.


Logged 100mi on the Ram today. Somewhere over 400 today total in my truck and the gf's car. Whew.
