That is very good point on the weight, at acceleration. Stopping though the heavier helps. Rolling Resistance means just that, already resisting to roll because of more heat and friction is ready to slow on its own. Adding break force is less needed technically because as soon as you let off the accelerator, they are trying to slow themselves down. Right? Yep. That psi thing is just missing something too. The truck says only the rear is supposed to be 80psi (all numbers at Cold PSI). Therefore the dash light will be on at some point under 80. But even better truth of that is that the TPMS gives room down to 65-68 before it actually alarms. And soooo, the 65 psi tire, and that again is Cold Psi, when you begin to drive and the temperature rises for friction on the road it will go into No Alarm mode. Then only if you are Towing and bothered, very low likelyhood but possible, by Highway Patrol and they know their stuff, could fault you for not having the rears at 80psi cold temp.
How are the seats holding up on your 2021 3/4 ton? I know in my 2019 the seat leather stretched out an bubbled up. My 2020 Laramie has done the same thing. I heard the 2021 limited seats are better and more comfortable.
Great video and awesome truck! Hope you get some PPF and ceramic on that beautiful paint 😉 So I guess I would need to level my ‘21 Limited 2500 in order to fit a 325 WildPeak?
So you sold the 2019 mega cam, bought a 1500 and then went back to a 2021 mega cab? I have always loved the mega cabs!! Are you going to do any of the upgrades you did to the previous?
So far tires, 2.5 Icon, curt gooseneck hitch, Bakflip MX4, banks pedal monster, aev tire and Tpms module. Still to be added this week airlifter 5000 plus with gen 2 compressor, Carli Radius arms.
So on the 325/60r20s how much did you rub? Also, did you run these on stock suspension or only with the leveling kit? I saw the rubbing on the control arms but wasn’t sure if this came from the 35” tires. Thanks in advance!
They run pretty bad even b4 full lock. I have the same tires and I run 1.75” hubcentric bora spacers and no run at all and stock out maybe .25-.5” past the factory flares. It’s a nice looking stance.
Are you pulling a 5th wheel or other trailer with these tires on the stock rim? Any concerns with tires not being rated for the stock rim size of 8 inch when pulling a 5th wheel etc?
Good evening sir. Great video! I had recently ordered a 2022 ram 2500 laramie night edition. I have a couple of questions that I fiqured you can help me out. I am having the ram dealership install 2.5" leveling kit. I want to use my stock black 20" rims. Im sure 35" tires would work. But would the 37" work with no trimming etc? If so what size 37" tires would you recommend me to focus on? Any answers you can provide would greatly appreciated!
The 35’s and 37’s will rub the radius arms.. you might get a 37x12.50 but will prob require some trimming. If I’m going with 35’s will use 2.0-2.5 level. If I use 37’s I will usually use 3.0-3.5” level. A test fit is the best check after level if you can. Some kits use radius arm drop brackets that will keep axle in the right spot. If it’s a cheaper level kit it will push axle down and closer to the cab. Sorry it’s a long answer… hope it helps..
If you’re planning on a level buy a carli or thuren. You drop 80k on a truck don’t spend 150 on spacers !! Buy quality. Check out CJC off-road on RU-vid
Hello. I just bought a 3500 2021 and it came with the nitto grapplar 37/12.50 also came with the same icon suspension I see you have and the front end rides really rough do you know what it could be? Maybe the coils the previous owner bought are the stiffer ones etc but it rides really rough in the front end. Looking for some help thank you
If you have reservoir shocks get rid of them.. order some fox shocks unless you plan to Baja some day.. I was not impressed with icon springs.. drop pressure to 55 front and 50 rear when not towing…
I do have the reservoir ones they’re the exact same ones that you have on your truck in the video. I appreciate the response very much. Is there a specific fox shock you recommend?
@@hypoglycemicdinners4737 my reservoir shocks started to rattle also.. go to fox shocks website and select truck.. also select how much rear lift you have not total. It will give you a part number with compressed and extended measurements. Measure your truck to verify. I like to have 2” extra for extended so they don’t bottom out. Just add 2” to what they measure now.
Being an 80's kid from St.Louis I couldn't help but notice you have Big Foot parked there. Please tell us more about that. Is it a real Big foot truck or a replica?
It’s the Texas Toy.. it ran against big foot in the early 80’s. This was the truck big foot competed against and flipped end over end. If you search for 80’s monster trucks or Texas toy you will see the video. This truck has a Detroit diesel and Allison transmission that is the original equip it was built back in the day.
@@RockyRohde Very cool. I looked into some of your past videos and watch the video of you smashing cars in the backyard. Good stuff. I used to live one street over from Midwest 4X4 (the home of Big foot) I used to ride my bike there everyday and play on the trucks in the back of the building. And my uncle was best friends with Danny Degrosso the owner of the Beast. The Beast and Big foot use to have a local rival in the early 80's.
