replying to myself 3 years later and the truck's down with a bad throwout bearing, with the suspension bits still in their box Oh... and the wheels I drove 90min each way to get are in the barn. Found a screaming deal on some AEV wheels and bought and installed them instead. Soon. I'll get...

My 2004 has AEV wheels on now. Went from 20s that the PO put on that rode like poo to 17"s wearing 35s. Mo bettah The thing about 16" wheels is that they may not clear the brakes. You'll have to try it somehow before you buy a full set. If the OP is near DC I have a set of 17" wheels from an...

There's an 88 'Burb in the driveway that needs some of that action. Please keep us updated! M

in a manual no less! Onya! M

I *probably* could get by with a 1500, but there's a 600# BMW that I may need to haul and an X3 that may need towing, and etc etc etc Will I use that daily? Nope. If SHTF, I'll definitely need it so why buy twice? M

...and that's appx 6" wider (total!) than the Toyotas lots of people are driving. I found an 04 Ram gasser 2500 CCSB with a 5MT. I figured A. I want the manual and B. it's better to have too much truck than not enough. IOW it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it...

Have cash, will travel So I've been 'planning' to build the DIY wedge style camper as seen in this place, but obviously haven't gotten 'round to it.' Whatcha got that you'd like to sell before you trade in your old truck? 04 Ram 2500 CCSB I'm just SW of DC, but am willing to drive and camp...

one of the other reasons for bigger trucks in the US is that that tax laws are written that vehicles have to be X pounds to be written off I've got a buddy that just upgraded his truck to an F250 to be able to write it off. ...well that and I think he wants a bigger trailer M

I've been cogitating on flatbedding (if that's a real word) my 04. So that's what it'll look like! M

I've got my first set (ever!) of aftermarket wheels on the way. AEV Saltas. The 2006 17" 6-spoke stock wheels I bought to replace the 20's the PO put on the truck need to go. Set of 4 wheels with the center caps in great shape. The lug nuts that came with the wheels don't fit my truck, so the...

The good news is that for the most part, they're the same truck and more often than not, the 2500/3500 stuff fits the 1500 ...says the guy with a 2500... M

I found a pair of stock AL wheels and 35" (worn out) tires for $400 on CL Still haven't sold my 20s yet to afford tires on the new-to-me wheels M

This sorta answers a question of mine... I have an 04 CC 2500, a Dometic 50l fridge, and a slide. I've been using the fridge in my work van all summer. Best thing EVER! for mobile bicycle mechanic work in the heat of the summer. Been schlepping it in and out of the van, but the plan is to...

someone pass the popcorn, I gotta see this! M

short answer: $$ Longer answer: not enough voltage from the generator hubs that are available to power up the battery. Here's your chance to make a small fortune out of a big fortune! AFA the pedaling when dead question: how much you spend affects the weight. A cheap bike is going to be a...

I have a ersatz PW: PO ordered a hemi 5sp 4dr 2500 SLT in 04 that I bought just as the virus kerfuffle started Need to Carli the bad boy and go back to 17s (from the 20s on there now) 4.10/4.11 gears and an LSD aren't lockers, etc but hey! those things are fixable. M

I did some digging and it seems that that winch can be retro-fit to my truck. Spendy, but do-able with MOPAR parts. I don't have the locking diffs or the rest. Yet. M

I saw the Ram in the pop up camper section and was fixin to PM the OP when I thought 'I wonder if he has a build thread?' ...and here we are! I have an 04 2500 with the gas engine and a 5MT that is essentially a PW without some of the nifty PW stuff. Need to dump the 20s the original...

Drove up to outside Baltimore today to grab some stock 17s off a '12 Tires are 35s but are shot so I may put em on for kicks to see how they ride. Found out from the PO of the wheels that there's an upgraded set of suspension components that should fix the bouncing I'm experiencing. Ordered...
