Restoring The Profile of Your '94-'97 Dodge Ram

In 1994, Dodge awed the automotive world by introducing a pickup truck that looked like a scaled-down semi-truck. With its dropped fenders, massive grille, and available 12-valve Cummins turbo diesel, the 2nd Generation Dodge Ram revolutionized truck design. Today, early BR/BE-series Rams are highly sought after by diesel enthusiasts and classic truck collectors alike.

It's expected that a classic '90's truck will show some age, and the trim on these trucks is likely to sun rot or peel away after 25+ years on the road. Instead of leaving sticky residue or fastener clip holes down the side of your beloved Cummins, upgrade it with our '94-'97 Dodge Ram Replacement Body Side Molding.

Can I Replace Body Side Moldings Myself?

Yes! Installing your molding is an easy DIY project that typically takes less than an hour in your own driveway - the same cannot be said of the many overly expensive custom-cut kits out there (don't fall for them!). Follow these steps for a factory-quality application:

1. Prep the Surface

The key to a permanent bond is a surgically clean surface. Clean the installation area thoroughly with a 50/50 mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water to strip away wax, grease, and road grime. Proper prep is 90% of the job - a decontaminated surface ensures the adhesive bonds permanently to the door.

2. Align and Mark

Avoid eyeballing the placement. Use high-visibility painter’s tape to create a continuous, straight reference line across your doors and bed - you want your side moldings to be perfectly level and consistent from the front fender to the rear.

3. Apply the Molding

Peel back a small section of the adhesive liner to start. Align the edge with your tape guide and press firmly against the panel. Slowly continue peeling the backing while pressing the molding into place along the line. Once fully applied, apply firm pressure across the entire strip to set the bond.
