Here all I could find was 3rd gen caps. Which are 1.5" then a 2nd gen cab! Rick

Made it to Rausch Creek this weekend. Nice to get out for the day.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but angling the shocks will allow a longer shock. example, but 1st gen dodge rear shocks were dang near straight up an down in the rear. I angled them in at the top and went from 10" to 14" travel shocks. They are postioned like a 2nd or 3rd gen. Wide at the bottom...

Hey Danny, I was wondering why these pics look familiar to some that were just emailed to me! I don't see a need to a 18" travel shock on the east coast. What can you run to keep it less intrusive into the bed? Rick

8mpg isn't bad at all with that wind and speed! This got 9.5mpg pulling in the mountains of PA doing 60-65mph. It weighed in at 19,500lbs. The bed is full of my tools and stuff needed for work. Rick

Any 8 lug wheel will not work. Ford Superdutys from around 1999 and newer is a different metric bolt pattern. And I believe the 2014 or 2015 Chevys changed patterns too. Any 8x6.5" pattern wheel will fit. Rick

This is my Cummins powered 93 Reg Cab Short bed that I treated to a new ramcharger body... Needed a backseat for the new baby.

Thanks guys. I'm also the most happiest with these tires. I don't have a lot of road miles on them(10miles) but they are already smoother then the Swamper, no flat spots, but noisey as hell. We are about to get a cold snap tomorrow and possible snow Monday. So I wanted to at least get the...

As of today. Painted the roof. and starting to work on installing the chrome trim.

Stepped up to 40x13.50 Mud Grapplers Moving the camper into the backyard. Looks like a nice match.... Rick

My starcraft came with one support post for the opposite corner of the door. my dealer said that's enough to support it if the cable would break. Rick

I've always wanted to add a powered winch to my starcraft as well. Does yours have the AC on top? Do you trust the winch holding the roof up or do you have a backup? Rick

Cool, real close. I don't know what I am right now. I'm wanting to build a trailer, But I do have a offroad popup trailer. Being a family of four and two large dogs its hard to justify a RTT on a trailer. Rick

Where abouts in MD? I'm out of Glen Burnie, if that's near I have a welder. Rick

My 86 bodied, 93 Cummins frame, 1 ton toy on 40's.... The wheel wells were moved back 11" to make a short bed reg cab wheel base of the frame I had already cut down.
