^^ True that. But expensive, plus expensive shipping. Unless you have a local dealer in the area...

 

Ranchhands are worse as they're heavy duty 1 piece all welded brush guards with steel grating between the grille bars.

 

That's what I was talking about.

 

My bad, thought you were just speaking in general terms of all brands.

I will say though, RanchHand makes some NIICE brush guards.

 

I would go with the brush guard myself Vdub, the bullbar doesnt look like more then somewhere to mount lights.

Quite a build sheet there. I bet those 3.92s are nice.

Quick question though...what's "tip start"? Never heard of it before.



And when are you going to mod it? It needs an SCT badly.

 

tip start is probably the thing were you just tap the key over and let it go.. truck will start automatically.. You dont have to hold the key like our trucks

 

I suppose.
Seems like something that would break though. IMO, Rams got less durable in like 06 when they started migrating more electronics over.

 

Its a key still... nothing that has to do with durability..
