For reference, my (sold) 2018 3500 C/C has the newer suspension design trailing arms, and my 2021 5500 has the older style.

For the windows and door(sidewall), how much foam did you take out for the second cut? Reason I am asking is the walls are only I believe 50 mm thick, vs the thickness of the windows internal frame. It almost looks like from the photos for the door that the foam is cut out all the way to the...

Have you thought about going with a different chassis? It seems like a lot of unnecessary work. Perhaps the GM/international 55/6500

Unfortunate they are not available in 2022 but a possible blessing in disguise if they are getting allocated to the military. In a few years maybe they will be as easy and cheap to purchase as some the larger sizes now available.

Earthroamer uses Continental because they have a partnership with them.(I'm guessing) same with Ford, not because it makes the most sense.

Nice batteries(y)

They do make load E 37's. Toyo MT and also switching to an 18" wheel .

There is no way you are going to get what you are looking for with a 300K budget. The chassis alone is going to be at least 150K pushing 200K. Acela is probably the cheapest option but I could be wrong on that. I am pretty sure a box from Bliss is going to be over 500K pretty easy, probably a...

There are losses, no question. I believe my victron inverter that feeds the inverter/charger in the camper is around 92% efficient. I also have 24 volt house batteries. I think paid about $350 for the victron inverter installed in the truck cab. I the inverter/charger in the camper just...

There is an easier, and more simple solution you might try out. It's how I set mine up. This is what I did. Mount 1000 watt inverter in truck cab and run the cables off of the truck chassis batteries. Next, Run 120 volt extension cord to your 'house' inverter AC input. This charges the...

Currently I have a Victron 24/3000 Multiplus inverter setup with a single AC input smart plug connection and 30 amp BlueSea double pole breaker I would like to add an additional 15 amp AC input. Is there anything dangerous or against some code that says I can't just spice into the input I...

I thought you guys were acquaintances? Did you tell them the panel manufacturer when you stopped by their shop?

Makes no sense on a light duty truck. I can it being helpful for a medium duty like the f550 where in order to get the 16,000 lbs load rating you need a lot of stiff springs. I also don't know why anyone would spend 12k on a Carli kit. YOu can get THuren coils for like $350, The kings...

They run about 15-20K BTW

THey all rot, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I guess if you plan to only take it where it hardly ever rains or snows like southern AZ it might be an issue, but in time they all rot. People will say as long as you keep up on maintenance yada yada you will have nothing to worry about. The...

I would recommend just nutting up and getting known wheels and tires that work. Wheels, especially on a vehicle as heavy as yours is not something I personally would want to experiment with. You will not find anyone that has use run of the mill MRAPs with the Goodyear tires. As far as tires...

I had a wood framed Northstar camper. I would never recommend buying one and if I could do it all over I would go with something other than wood.

You will lose your powertrain warranty. To make them last, I would think would involve getting rid or preventing the $$damage that comes with the Cp4 injection pump when it gives out. EDIT: I missed the sarcasm. For reference Ram chassis cab is 325 HP and 800 ft. torque

SOLD. Thank you to everyone that expressed interest.

Kind of dirty and weird when the guy building them says even he can't afford to buy one.
