Your Garage profile says you have the 180? I see a 183 that looks specific to the Ram, but costs $30 more. Do you know if the only difference is the mounting bracket?

OE, how are you getting a 1 inch bodylift? Because if I got a bodylift, thats all I would want. So please explain lol. And best mod for my buck... I know this is a very expensive mod at $1500, but my favorite mod to date is my 35X12.5 Toyo MT's. I have never had a better tire with any of my trucks.

But if you guys want my best mod thats reasonably priced, that would probably be replacing my throttle valve cable, and learning how to adjust it. Now I can set my WOT shift points from that cable alone

Not really performance or a visual mod but my favorite so far has been my upgraded stereo. Pioneer HU, MTX Thunder 275x amp (thanks Dirtydog ), and my freeby old school kicker. Sounds awesome!

Hood, without a doubt. Got the hood cheap and got it painted free. Changed the entire look of the truck.

Dunno, I bought and installed mine in the summer of '06 and I don't think there was such a thing as a 183 at that time.

Pick up the phone and call Flex-a-Lite or email them...

Is this it? http://www.jegs.com/i/Flex-a-lite/40...oductId=756607
Specs are identical between the 180 and 183.
