Your video helped me prepare for a quick and easy install. Thank you. Tip for future installers, the bezel can be removed from the front. After you remove the anchors in the rear, head to the front of the bumper and enter your pry tool in the top of the bezel and shimmy it out with no trouble. Another tip, there's some play in the tow hook which changes its angle sticking through the bumper. make sure it looks straight before tightening down and closing up the wheel well.

Tow hooks should be standard equipment on 4x4 trucks, I have a 2018 Ram no hooks on it, for $52000 it should have them, geez I had an East German car (WARTBURG 1000) in UK in 1965 that had them for pulling out of snow etc.

Thanks Tony. I couldn't figure out why those long bolts, already in the frame, wouldn't drop out. Found your video and found out why. Hard to get in there to bang them out, but finally did. Unfortunately the parts supplier sent me the wrong bezel kit for my Ram 1500 DT, must have been for the DS Classic model. I cut out my solid bezels to make it work and will go back and get the correct ones.

I just did this to my 2022 1500 Bighorn today, took about an hour to do so. Getting the big bolts to loosen up in the first place was a pain, but you’ll manage. Especially if you have a breaker bar. But other than that, it was simple. Also, I turned my wheels away. So on the Drivers side, turn the wheels all the way to the left and then all the way to right for the passenger side. Makes it that much easier. And just like the guy said, be careful with the automated spoiler. Good luck!

I thought I might install hollow bezels and use each bumper hole as a single foot step when checking the dip stick or topping off fluids. Was able to reach in between the air dam and bumper and loosen the top 8 mm nuts with a wrench by feel, without turning the wheel or removing the wheel well trim. Don't need to remove the nuts, just loosen each nut and pull the nut and screw fastener combos back together. Then press down on the bezel top from the inside and pop it out towards the front. My 2020 did not have or need bottom retainer washer clips. Install of hollow bezels was similarly easy if you feel from the inside to have the bottom knobs fit inside the two holes. Foot fits in the hole great, the chrome metal bumper easily supports my weight (175 lbs), and the bezel protects the bumper from shoe scuffs. However, balancing on one foot means you have to support yourself with one hand and only have one hand free to work, negating the advantage. Also, the bottom of the bezel is not fully supported by metal so the bezel could deform or crack with repeated use. Also, the open hole is bad for aerodynamics and would allow road salt to get inside the bumper and blow onto the air dam joints. Best to keep the closed bezels if you don't install tow hooks and just use a shop stool big enough for both feet when working on the engine bay.

When I check my oil it's usually at the gas station while I am filling up with gas. I have never seen a step stool or ladder for customers at any gas station. Probably too much liability if someone drives over it or falls off of it. Would sure be handy to reach the dip stick and oil fill at the gas station and that was all I was trying to solve.

Where can i find red tow hooks? or would you recommend plastidipping oem hooks?

I don’t believe they make red tow hooks for the new Rams, at least not factory ones. I wouldn’t recommend doing plasti dip if you’re actually planning on using the hooks though, as after one good tug with a strap, it will undoubtedly peel. BUT, if you reallllly wanted them red, you could have someone powder coat them or spray paint them yourself before installing. It wouldn’t hurt to do a little more digging on the ‘ol Google, but I wasn’t seeing anything like that for these trucks at first glance. Even the Rebels don’t have red ones from what I’m seeing.

@@TonyTheTruckGuy yeah, I figured Tony. I've been looking, don't see any red hooks. I don't plan on actually using them, just want to have the truck look nice, you know? Customized to my liking. How great are these trucks though? My last car was a white 2016 fucking Prius, and now I got a black 2020 RAM bighorn, and I absolutely love this thing! 😍 I see how yours has the black edition, mines is sport edition, but I plan on getting custom black wheels later, and figuring out what color to change the rest of the chrome on the truck.

I don’t believe they changed anything on the front end from 2019 to 2021 so I would guess so, but I couldn’t tell you 100%. I’d get under your truck and just make sure it looks h to e same as mine did.

Sorry for the late reply, 300+ comments were "being held for review" for some reason. 275/65R20. Stock size for the 09-18 trucks but I have minor rubbing on the splash guard at full lock in reverse, which I will be trimming soon.

Haha no this won’t affect your MPG. We’re talking .0000001 mpg if anything due to added weight of the hooks but you could also argue that the holes in the bumper around the hook allow more air flow and actually make it more aerodynamic.

Different body style for the classics but similar steps. You won’t have to deal with the air dam or the long bolt with that stupid washer on it. Doesn’t the warlock already have tow hooks? I thought warlocks came with tow hooks

I’ve read on the 5thgenram forums that people have removed the air dam and have no engine codes or anything. I am planning on removing the stationary air dam and the active air dam. I don’t think it benefits me anyhow with a lifted truck and 35’s.. Nice job with the install and the video. Very detailed, I am ordering some shortly from the dealer about $300 in Canada (and I’m getting a deal). Just debating on getting them powder coated (red, pearl blue or just leave black) or painted from the people painting my Bushwacker pocket flares. Anyhow good video.
