- Today we are work on cleaning up the inside of RamCharger and install some Kilmat. I am using a 80mil Kilmat to keep the noise down in the truck(and it is amazing now). It was a lot of work but I will say that it is much better now!! I can not wait to show you all what the interior looks like now with the new carpet and seats, but you all will have to wait for that!!
As always, I hope you all enjoyed the video. And don’t forget to Like, Comment, and Subscribe!!!!

Saturday March 16, 2024. Came back to this vid to look at the work you have put into this Ram Charger, good job and the explanation. I know now that you have moved and are considering selling this vehicle, I don't know about that, you have done excellent work to this Ram, beautiful truck. Keep up the great content Austin, yes I know life has changed for you and your wife and time constraints to providing us the viewers is bit limited right now. But I encourage you to keep up the channel, your patient style is highly appreciated and applauded, Thank you Austin.
Always here supporting ur channel
Nice truck and the work you are doing is awesome
Be proud of your work, you are an awesome guy
Glad to see you are impressed with the sound of good tunes after / during your Kilmat install. I'm always blown away by folks who put in super loud exhaust systems, which not only annoys most folks outside the car, but make listening to tunes a waste of time. There's nothing better than cruising down the highway with your favorite tunes cranked up on a decent system. I hope you try it on your way to Mike's.
I Have done mine as well. I went cheap and used duct wrap with adhesive backing. Still works good. I also Spray foamed my ceiling.((CAUTION: IF ANY ONE ATTEMTS TO DO THIS, YOU NEED TO DRILL VENT HOLES EVERY 6 INCHES)) Reason being, it would not dry in pockets, and will eventually swell the roof. No worries after drilling holes that eased up, but one hole was like puncturing a new can. It Sprayed out all over me and floor and seat, It cleaned up
About time. 🤣
Good job!
I am so sorry for your loss I know the feeling my 30 year old son past away
I am sorry for your loss too. It is never a feeling we want to deal with. I hope you are staying strong.
*Back in the mid 90s I saw a competitors brand of this product (Dynamat) installed in my friend's car and was super impressed! My friend completely covered the interior of his car with it and it made a tremendous difference in containing the sound from his huge boom boom sound system.*
Dynamat has a bunch of other products out these days and they're still kicking.
It's no so much containing the sound, It's more about making a quieter environment for the sound.
Back in the 90s indeed...
Good luck
It been like 11 million years since you posted a video!😅 ( 11 days since your last video😉)
That Dodge is looking great plus I can't wait to see when you put your interior in your dodge and I'll see your next video in like 11 million years.😅
Great video! 🤠👍🏻
Hi Austin, great to see you as always✌
Did a nice work , Austin
Looking good
Looks good
Well done,Austin! It's looking good!
Paint the floor before you put the matting down it will help stop any mm further rust problems
It's fun working on these Ramchargers..I have an 85 Ramcharger prospector and just got done installing aftermarket keyless entry...I was gonna make a video on the installation but my phone took a dump
Wow Austin. This truck is gonna be great. Love you're progress. Cant wait to see the next step. Good work man.
Great looking job A! I did mine also, rough on the knees. Keep up the good work. I'm trying to get started back on mine. Ac/heater box renew while the carpet is out.
That looks awesome. Great job
Oh, the kitty magnet is back. 😁😁 Nice work.
Not overkill especially if you want to put a sound system in. Nice job!
Cool vid! I’m doing an overland build with my 87 RC. Would love to see that with yours!
Great job 👍! Enjoyed our conversation the other night, I think I will be getting that product for the Cuda.🤔👍.Take care my friend 🤙
nice
Do inside doors
I'm so happy I found your videos. I have an '86 RC and I'm enjoying your content. QQ: do the mats help with exhaust smell instead?
I feel like they do but to my knowledge the place that is most likely going to allow fumes into the RC is the 4X4 shifting boot area
@@austincarr5441 thank you!
Great job on Kilmat you have any good advice where I can get parts for for my 1990 ramcharger I'm needing badges emblems,AC components any advice would be appreciated thanks and great job on again.
My best advice would be to join the dodge RamCharger and Plymouth Trailduster group on Facebook and ask the great people on there. Some of the AC stuff can be purchased through rock auto, but I have heard of at least one person having issues with that product
Love your project car I am on a 79 Ramcharger corporation are you running fuel injected??
So how much did you spend on mat versus having everything sprayed by a pro with Line-X?
Total for the Kilamat was about $160 and the foil tape for two rolls was $14. The last time I had linex done was back in 2014 and it cost $350(cash) for a ford ranger bed and running boards. As for current prices, I would not know.
One more QQ: is there a way to mount a spare tire to the back of door? I have 35 inch tires and obviously a spare won't fit in the back. My gas gauge doesn't work either lol. I want to get that fixed but it seems like a common issue. 🤦🏾♀️
For the spare tire most people will get a spare tire holder that mounts to the bumper or hitch. I have seen a few put onto a roof rack as well. The older RCs had the swing out style tire carrier like a jeep but they stopped doing that in the late 70's I believe. It was a common rust spot and not strong enough for oversize tires. I strongly recommend against a rear door mounted tire carrier as the rear door is fiberglass and they are known for cracking at the hinges
As for the fuel gauges, I just fixed mine this past weekend and it ended up being chewed threw wires at the gas tank. it could be aground issue too. I've heard that can be the cause to that problem.
@@austincarr5441 I want to avoid the roof because I'm already at 7ft in height and barely fit in garages as it is. Lol but I will look into your other suggestions. Thank you!!
Hey bud got an 83 RC how many boxes of Kilmat did you use or SQFt?
How many packs of the killmat did you buy for your Ramcharger?
I believe 4 total, but I will have to check again!
@@austincarr5441 if you don’t mind checking. Also which brand killmat and size. Going to do the same thing to my Ramcharger. You definitely inspired me. Your videos are dope. 💯
Any way you can send me a picture of where the rear hatch struts bolts on. Mines missing everything so I'm trying to piece it together sir
Send me an email : austincarrscars@gmail.com
let me know what exactly toy are looking for photo wise and I will email them to you!
What did you use to get all the carpet jute junk off the wheel humps. Pulled the carpet on mine and all the just is stuck to the wheel hump 😡
The goo gone in the can! I believe acetone would work to!
I wonder if availability will be a problem in the future with Kilmat, considering it's a Russian company
How many square feet did you end up buying?
Uxcell 355mil...way cheaper
