What did you do to your RHO Today?

Anybody running 10mm (3/8") wheels spacers? I'm keeping my stock beadlocks and am thinking these spacers would add just a little extra width without having to modify the studs. Is there still enough thread engagement with the lug nuts loosing 10mm?
I'll have to check my stock trx/rho wheel model on the computer to see how much thread engagement you would be getting. If memory serves, they don't have a ton of thread engagement to begin with, so taking 3/8 of thread would be a very bad idea. They are enginnered for full thread engagement, not 3/8 less. Spacers in general are a bad idea but especially on a truck likely this with performance suspension, power and weight. I'd leave it how it is or get some aftermarket beadlocks with offset if you are dead set on wheels poking out.
 
Today I finally got around to installing the Bakflip MX4 and the Rekgen mud flaps. Truck is filthy but included a couple pics anyway.

I have never battled so hard with a tonneau install in my life. Trying to get the rails to sit flush against the bed was basically impossible with the provided brackets and then trying to get it square took all of the patience I had allotted for the week. It still is a bit wonky but I'm way past my return window so it is what it is.

If anyone is thinking about this cover, I'd definitely suggest looking elsewhere or if you do get this, use some foam or something as a spacer behind the rails so they don't want to sag away from the bed rail.

Rekgens on the other hand were very simple, fortunately. I was really hesitant based on how they look in pictures but they look a lot better in person in my opinion.

I beyond feel your pain.

I had rails issues with my softopper too, it wanted to lay tilting out, then in. It was square but felt cattywampus and took two of us to pull it all tight. The biggest problem for me is the way the clamps work with Ram, they were generic and needed a different approach, IMO. They sent me more clamps but haven't had a chance to play with it yet.
 
Installed Off-Road Alliance 1.5" level kit coil spring collars. Levels the truck out nicely and it rides great.
Did you level it because you will be installing 37’s? That’s the only reason I’m going to level it, same height at 1.5” which DOES NOT raise the front end higher than the rear.
 
Checked the tracker the requisite amount of times that I am willing to publicly admit and received my Revolver tonneau cover from FedEx from @SRG_Joe. I now have hood, bed, and grille graphics and the tonneau cover. No truck. I'm out of control.
Thank you!
 
How do you like the sound now?

It might be too loud. It definitely has a drone, but I'm not annoyed by it. I might try to find some mufflers that tone it down a bit. Honestly, I'm still trying to adjust to the fact that the truck sounds like a sports car. I will try and get some audio but will not be quality.
 
That's exactly what I was wondering. I've driven too many droning muscle cars with the 40 series Flowmasters in my day to go back to drone. I'll be curious if you are able to tune that out with some different/milder mufflers. I'm sure you can, it will just be a matter of finding the right combo.
 
Installed the generic Amazon mudflaps and the RetraxOne MX today.

The retractable works great and the mudflaps fit ok. The fronts fit great and the cutout for the rear is a little off. They still look ok though once installed.

Also, in addition to my first bad door ding I also noticed a nice two foot scratch below it (which the same jack hole probably did).

I installed it to give me the option to bump up to 37" tires in the future. I will most likely run the factory ones down first but can definitely see how a 37 would look better and fill out the wheel well. 1.5"s leveled it out almost perfectly and the CV angles are not bad. That was my biggest concern as the TRX guys seem to be tearing them up when the lifts are 2" or more.

Awesome man, I was worried about the CV angles too but you put me at ease
