Ok, so, I am active duty Army, just got orders for Germany (currently in Colorado) and I am taking my 2012 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel 4 door short box 4x4. Yes it’s 3 times the size of a normal car there, yes it gets poor mileage compared to a diesel tiny car thing, no I am not going to sell it...
So, after talking with a friend last night I am going to fast forward on building my truck for overland style camping and exploring (apparently there are a ton of camp grounds in Europe)... What I am looking for is some input from the more experienced crowd and maybe a few in Europe as to lift and bumper laws. Also, I am attaching a list of parts I am already committed to getting for the truck.... Thanks, I am looking forward to the input.
Front Leveling Kit.
Dynatrac Hub KIt.
Arb front Locker.
Hutcheson Bead locks.
Aluminus rear bumper with tire carrier and Box
Hard tonoe cover with a pull out bed drawer.
Titan replacement fuel tank and second fuel tank (spare tire area) 86 gallons total fuel capacity.
CVT RTT ( gonna need to build or have a rack built for mounting the RTT above the tanoe cover)
33-35 inch tire (still not sure what brand of tire)
Maybe
Cold Air intake
Exhaust system
Want an AEV front bumper but no go till the end of the year apparently
Some type of LED lighting
Some type of rocker protection
Wanted to put a Carli 3.0 on it, but a complete upgrade on the suspension will be the last priority
Ok, that's it..... input please
