picked up a set of 2012 ram 2500 rims. just chrome steel wheels, came with centers, and lug nuts, however, the nuts are useless. the switched to a 14x1.5mm thread in 2012.

got my ball joints today. ill get pics tomorrow...

also, got a text about a kid wanting to trade my mickey thompson rims with his stockers from his cummins.

my wheels/tires, for his wheels/bald tires, and 700 bucks!

Picked up a poison spider rock guard for the front diff. Can't upload pics yet, on mobile. Got it from a crawling buddy who had it on his Dodge.

Default Showed the Ram a little love

I changed out the distributor cap and rotor with the Accel brand. It wasn't as hard as it looked. I could definitely tell the difference in the driving. I was having a little bit of a hard time going up long inclines. I had thought it to be losing power or simply struggling to maintain speed, but after the cap and rotor replacement it seemed to do great. I already change out the plugs with champions, and plan on doing the plug wires next. Not sure on the brand yet, but curious on ideas. Cool ya'll have a great weekend!

i want duratracs again in the worst way, but theyre 1100 bucks!

a buddy of mine works for continental contitech thermpol, and gets 50% off continental tire brands. so ill be getting a set of grabber at2s in either 285/70/17, or 315/70/17.

the 285s are 606 shipped. the 315s will be about 50 or so more...

Installed some led lights under the bumper. Actually I attached the to the hitch, right behind the safety chain holes.

I spliced into my reverse wiring, stupid bright!

How much draw on those LED's? Wouldn't wanna smoke the wiring. (I would be seriously tempted to upgrade the wire, just for shts and giggles.)
