Debadge

What is the best way to debadge the '07. I just want to take off the RAM 3500 and leave on the Cummins.

fishing line and a eraser or a clay bar

just saw back and forth with the fishing line to get the badge off, then it's all elbow grease in getting the rest of the badge backing off the truck.

Get some fishing line I think I used 30lb test line and a couple of key rings. Tie each end of a 12" long piece of line to the key rings for your fingers and have at it. Just see saw back and forth behind the badge with some outwards pressure away from the paint. Mineral spirits and elbow grease will help rubbing any leftover adhesive or you can get an eraser wheel from autozone etc and get it off faster/easier.

definitely get an eraser wheel, either a 3M or an Astro, they both work very well. Chuck it up in a cordless drill and have a ball. I did one badge without the wheel because I didn't want to go to the store, well needless to say after just one badge I went to the store. I was so impressed with the wheel I also took that crappy pin-striping off my truck too. Worked fantastic! My buddy saw me do it and before long he was out in the driveway de-badging his truck too

I did mine last week. Got the 3m eraser wheel from a local body shop parts supplier. Was $10 cheaper than napa for same one. They had an off brand that looked just as good for $12. Worked great with no scratches. Just wax afterwards. Will take off pin stripes this spring. I also removed my junky bumper stickers for the clean look.
