    F-350 Air Springs

    A full Carli kit with their airbag system will greatly improve the ride while also allowing you to tow at factory specs when needed. Kelderman is all show and not suited for off-road. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Short bed, long hard-shell RTT

    My rack and tent are currently off and disassembled. I’m having a little work done on the rack and I’m going to vinyl wrap the tent. I hate the white. I may have one from when I had an ikamper though. Let me check. Found a few: On the last photo you can see how the tent over hangs the...

    Short bed, long hard-shell RTT

    So I have a James Baroud Evasion XXL (90” I think) on a 6.5’ bed on a low rack. It over hangs the rear a few inches but does not obstruct my view because I had the rack made so that the lowest point is at the height of the rear window. This way, the joint of the 2 shells is below the cab for...

    2017 Ram 2500 Front Winch Bumper Help

    I think ARB has a skid option but I think it requires some modifications to work on a diesel. Don’t quote me on that. If I’m remembering correctly, one of the 3 current Ram builds on the full size page has the ARB and is doing something with a skid. It might be the “family 3500” one. Three...

    2017 Ram 2500 Front Winch Bumper Help

    A guy over on the AEV forum uses his rig for hunting and has the AEV Bumper. He loves it. BUT, he has hit his intercooler several times due to his model year not having a skid plate option. It’s definitely the only downfall of the bumper for what you seek. There have been photos on the AEV...

    Meet the "Hitch Hotel"

    I can certainly appreciate the thought and design that went into this product. I doubt any members here will buy it though with the exception of newcomers. I would suggest to the company to stay away from anyone looking to get off the beaten path with the hitch hotel and push hard for the...

    Awesome Ford roaming around Jackson

    Patriot Campers is bringing their canopy and tray bed over but only 2 units are stateside currently. If it’s not a mainline then it could be any number of flatbed companies stuff, just custom I suppose. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    That does look good. It looks similar to the Mainline Overland canopy setup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone Running Nitto Ridge Grappler 37x11.50s?

    They have a 17x9 with a zero offset. Not sure what the Nittos are in a r17 other than my 37s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone Running Nitto Ridge Grappler 37x11.50s?

    I have the method NV HD in zero offset. I think this article will help clear somethings up. http://www.trucktrend.com/how-to/towing/1407-understanding-tire-load-ratings/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone Running Nitto Ridge Grappler 37x11.50s?

    A lower ply tire will perform better off road as it will flex better over obstacles. Depending on how much tongue weight you have should be the deciding factor on tires. Just because you have a 10k trailer doesn’t mean you need 2 5k load tires. You won’t have nearly that load on your hitch if...

    Anyone Running Nitto Ridge Grappler 37x11.50s?

    Do you need an 8k lbs load capacity on your rear axle though? If not then I’d look at getting a lower ply tire for a better ride. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Another Ram 3500 build...

    I would think you could swap the fuse out to a larger fuse, as long as it’s reasonable. But if you can’t, the way around it would probably be to have an air tank in the system. That way the compressor isn’t running at full tilt until the tank is drained which should give you a cushion before it...

    Ram 2500 XL for overland / expedition trips

    Yea, it’s due to the DEF tank. A delete also clears up a ton of room underneath too, especially if straight piped. Although, I plan on running a muffler and resonator to achieve a quieter ride. It all that room makes a good spot to add an air tank and/or water tank. Or keep it open and bask in...

    Ram 2500 XL for overland / expedition trips

    If you delete your Ram, a Titan XL tank for a 2010 Ram HD, 55 gal, will fit if you are looking for extra range. It’s a nice little trick that not only increases reliability and fuel economy but also increases range. With a deleted truck with proper gearing and 55 gal of fuel you aught to be able...

    Anyone Running Nitto Ridge Grappler 37x11.50s?

    I just put on a set of RGs on my Ram in a 37x12.50r17 and I absolutely love them. They are extremely quiet, really barely louder than a typical A/T tire like the Toyo, and way less noisy than your M/Ts. On road manners are fine, and they balanced well. They work well in the dirt too and in...
