    Tern Overland Introduction

    Any idea when the Euro doors will be back in stock? I looked at the Aussi door that you are now carrying, is this door insulated?

    Ram 5500 Suspension Upgrades??

    I am not really sure what you can do with the rear, the hard and stiff ride is the result of 19,000 lb GVWR of the 5500. If you change that, it kind of defeats the purpose of having a 5500 in the first place. I am sure Kelderman is probably better as far as ride comfort goes, but how much...

    Ram 5500 vs Ford F550

    Also: With a V8 you have another extra cylinder head. There is a reason most big rigs are an inline 6 cylinder design and all Cummins does is build engines. If you are coming from a gas motor and thats your experience you might like the Ford V8 diesel since it runs at a much higher RPMs than...

    Ram 5500 vs Ford F550

    Major differences: Ford 8 cylinder V8 motor design vs Cummins straight 6 cylinder (that's two more pistons and two more injectors to worry about, also less fuel efficient) Most big tractor motors are a straight 6. Also straight 6 provides more low end grunt HP. Major engine work on the Ford...

    No links because I am lazy but I believe Andreas from TotalComposites recommends using adhesives to attach things like cabinets and such.

    Falken Wildpeak AT/3W - anyone running them? Opinions?

    The issue I am noticing with my Falken at3W is lack of a 3 ply sidewall. It's probably not an issue at all on a lighter truck.

    5.9 or 6.7 Cummins? Want to weigh in?

    You are right, I was thinking of regular cab trucks in the 5.9 flavor that only came in 2500 SRW. Both 3rd and 4th gen SRW came in 3500 except 5.9 regular cabs.

    DIY Truck Camper - If you did it again

    Why not the 80/20? I was planning on using for the interior build out instead of plywoood.

    5.9 or 6.7 Cummins? Want to weigh in?

    If you want a single rear wheel truck, you can only get a 2500 in the 5.9 Personally I would look for a 2013 and newer 3500. Better suspension design all around. You might get a hair better mileage with the 5.9, but like I said you are stuck with a 2500 truck. IF you don't plan to have much...

    Wheels for 2015 RAM 3500 diesel

    The problem with the AEV wheels is they only let you run a 12.5 tire. The 37" tires with the highest load capacity are 13.5 wide.

    New Carbon Fiber EarthRoamer

    Nice to see they are not using those crappy Dometic windows on a $600k RV anymore with this new carbon fiber addition.

    SRW 450 Mountain Build

    Do you know what your total length is? Being able to fit into a normal parking spot is a huge bonus.

    Power Wagon Disengaging Anti-Sway Bar into Cummins Ram

    Out of curiosity, why not just keep running the Thuren bar?, It's a pretty soft rate. Or just run no sway bar all the time? I have heard a few people do that, and I would be curious if overall how much of a difference between no sway bar and Thurens. It seems like just ditching the sway bar all...

    Moving from a Tundra to a 3500... Pros and Cons???

    I don't think you swap a 2019 3500 dually to single on the 2019. The lug pattern is like 8x200 mm. you would have to find wheels with that lug pattern and I am not sure they exist.

    SRW vs DRW? Planning to install a coach on a Ford Super Duty but can't decide on wheel configuration (dually?)

    What's the weight on the rear axle? You might get by with an LT tire

    Trackmaster Tyre Recall

    What are the other options for tires if the TrackMasters are on recall and not recommended? Not many options I have found with a load index of 131

    37" Toyo RT vs Falken AT3W road noise?

    I have 37x12.5x18 at2w's . Can't compare them to RT's but have run MT tires in the past including Toyo, these tires silent for me, or they can't be heard over the regular motor noise.
