    Transfer Flow developing larger GASOLINE tank (factory-replacement) for RAM 2500/3500 CC Short Bed

    UPDATE: The Ram tank is still moving forward. Transfer Flow recently received green light from CARB to proceed with emissions testing. They're working through a "few final details" and will begin testing shortly. Assuming testing goes smoothly, they'll likely then need to wait a few months...

    Transfer Flow developing larger GASOLINE tank (factory-replacement) for RAM 2500/3500 CC Short Bed

    As of late March, the tank had been installed in Transfer Flow's 2024 Ram a few months to perform durability testing, and was reportedly going smoothly. TF was in contact with CARB regarding testing and awaiting their direction on emissions testing. I'll check in with TF to see if there is any...

    Power Wagon as a family Exploration Vehicle

    Yeah, gauging where the front of the truck is can be a challenge, especially on a trail with large rocks to navigate around.

    Power Wagon as a family Exploration Vehicle

    When you say "visbility" are you talking about ability to see over the hood (ability to see the road/trail immediately in front of the vehicle) from the drivers' seat? I've heard people say that the RAM 2500/3500 has a "longer hood" compared with the F250/350, but I'm not sure if this is...

    2023 RAM 3500 HELP

    No doubt it's for the rear, but it seems to be for the 2500 and not the 3500.

    2023 RAM 3500 HELP

    Thanks for the link. From what I can tell, that locker is for the 2500, but not the 3500. I don't know why it should matter (assuming they use the same rear axle, which I think they do) but even AAM's website does not list this locker as being compatible with the 3500. I sent an email to...

    Ram 3500 - Spare tire options for 37s.

    No need to modify exhaust on a 5th gen ram with flatbed and custom (larger) hitch. I can send photos when I get some time.

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    I don't have experience with using horse stall mats, but I've heard of people using them (rather than plywood) to raise camper. plywood will almost certainly rot and break down/mold, esp in a moist environment. horse mats, I believe, are synthetic so you don't have to worry about moisture...

    Plumbing/electrical system design assistance

    I'm pretty sure Nate at explorist was offering electrical consulting/design at one point. maybe he still is. either way, I've learned a good bit from watching his YouTube vids.

    Ram 3500 - Spare tire options for 37s.

    You CAN run a 37" underneath the bed (at full PSI), BUT you need to have a custom hitch fabricated (Carli doesn't make a "Trophy Hitch" for the RAM). ALSO, I believe, you have to be running a flatbed (rather than the factory pickup bed) because the added hitch length will interfere with the...

    Transfer Flow developing larger GASOLINE tank (factory-replacement) for RAM 2500/3500 CC Short Bed

    Today, I heard back from Transfer Flow on the tank status: The highlights: The tank prototyping is complete and the capacity is 46G. So basically, an additional 15G over factory tank. Durability testing has begun, and is going well so far. Remaining hurdles: -complete durability testing...
