    2002 Provan Tiger GMC 3500 4x4 Dually Diesel $85K OBO

    My stock Ram 1 ton next to a 90’s GMC 3/4. No lift on mine but 33.5” tall tires. Reference the driver mirrors, the 90’s 3/4 ton Tigers are short.

    Thoughts? Expedition camper 135k

    Reading the spec’s makes me wonder what this weighs when loaded. I would never take this off pavement.

    2002 Provan Tiger GMC 3500 4x4 Dually Diesel $85K OBO

    Much more robust suspension componites and level compensating air bags. Huge tires and wider track helps too

    2002 Provan Tiger GMC 3500 4x4 Dually Diesel $85K OBO

    COG is already bad on hardsided campers. 1ton suspensions are max'd and lifting makes it worse. BTW, 4WD does not make these offroad vehicles. Go to truck camper forum and see how many recommend a lift. https://www.truckcamperadventure.com/forums/forum/truck-camper-forums/

    My Tiger/Ram3500 was a dually. Front axle got Yukon manual hubs (non- dually) and rear I just directly bolted new wheel on. Wheels are 4,500lb. rated Method NV/HD, tires are Nitto Ridge Grappler F equivalent 3,900 lb. rated. The rear wheel flares are narrowed and reinstalled as they came off...

    Bronco Killer: Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 470HP 392 CONFIRMED for 2021 Q1 sales.

    I read the axle housings are beefed up D44’s with 3.73 gears and CVC joints. Transmission (auto only) and transferase with have higher gears , no Rubi 4 to1 T.C. I have heard said MPG and high speed handling is why 33” tires. My guess is the 392 will average 14/15 at best based on my JLR. I get...

    Tire Talk: Load Range vs Load Index

    My Method NV/HD and Nitto Ridge Grapplers 305x65r18 "F" have 55,000 on them and look good for another 10 before I replace the tire. I did a dually conversion on my 11,200 lb. Tiger/Ram3500 diesel 4x4 and could not be happier with these wheels and tires. Never had an issue aired down or running @...

    Bronco Killer: Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 470HP 392 CONFIRMED for 2021 Q1 sales.

    The 392 470HP/470TRQ puts the Wrangler out of balance with the rest of the running gear. It's just going to break ******** or run out of fuel.

    Bronco Killer: Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 470HP 392 CONFIRMED for 2021 Q1 sales.

    HP premium fuel gulping V8's where cool back in the day on the boulevard. Not today and not needed in a off road Jeep. I will be keeping my JLR V6, plenty of power.

    Customized hard-side camper examples

    I was just looking on this thread to see if any Tiger RV’s were posted. They are all custom ordered and very few outfitted the same. My truck has modified suspension, Coach has many improvements to wiring, plumbing, insulation and sealants.

    Can we talk coffee brewing?

    I make a quart of double strength COLD brewed coffee every 4/5 days. Mix the double strength cold brew concentrate 50/50 with water in what ever size mug. Heat but don’t boil for the best cup of coffee on the planet. I drank hot brewed coffee with cream for 30 years until I found cold brew 15...

    Tracker vs Sidekick vs Samurai TOAD......

    You are underestimating the tow capabilities of a V10 gas or diesel Superduty IMHO. My Ram 3500 Cummins weighs 11,000 lbs. and tows my 5,000 lb JLR like it isn't there. A 2 MPG lose and rolls 55 MPH easy up the steepiest interstate grades. You'll need auxiliary breaking on the toad for most...

    Tracker vs Sidekick vs Samurai TOAD......

    Why the 3,000 lb. limit ? Sounds to me like the tow vehicle is questionable.
