    Ram 2500 long term reliability

    probably more reliable as well. I waited 9 weeks for the dealer to get in a front driveshaft and rear pinion seal...they replaced a front seat cover as well.

    GFC or Vegabond Drifter?

    my guess is to make it work it would have to be really long. I guess if you were really short and had really small feet wedges would be fine.

    GFC or Vegabond Drifter?

    We are not tall I am 5'9" and wife 5'3" and the vee just kills the actual room you have. I suppose if it were on an 8' bed it would help but my 6.5" bed just was not convenient for getting up in the middle of the night without the other person having to get up as well. On a GFC I thing the...

    GFC or Vegabond Drifter?

    just did not work very well for 2 people and a dog at least for us. A true cab over bed set up would be much better. trying to get up and down from the bed of the truck when there are two people was a total pain. We ended up only using an outside ladder. On paper it seemed like entering from...

    Jk suspension

    and I actually called Chrysler and they confirmed it was valid. I did mean to say 2016 because my 2 door was a 2016 and I wanted to know what changed.

    GFC or Vegabond Drifter?

    I had a GFC and I liked it but I would not get another one. I would look at something more like a FWC project M. I would not get a wedge style one again.

    Jk suspension

    I had an AEV On my old 2016 2 door with AEV 3.5....if you do an exhaust mod on the cross over you can get by with out a new front ds but will still make contact under certain situations. You won't sag with the 3.5 springs. I had heavy bumpers and a TF rack which was heavy and never sagged at all.

    AEV quits the JK

    and all the hardcore jeeps guys say the opposite :)...I think they do pretty well at both. I have had AEV 2",2.5" and 3.5" lifts and front and rear bumpers and every version of jk wheels they sell as well as having two sets of AEV HD ram wheels.

    Ram 2500 long term reliability

    The owner of AEV knows his stuff he works with OEM engineers ie Jeep, ram, chevy and gmc. What he told me is the front under heavy braking the articulinks could cause the truck to list (think ships). regarding tires my good buddy put on ridge grapplers the same time I put on my Toyo RT's. His...

    Ram 2500 long term reliability

    they come with D rated tires know since at least 2019 and I think even earlier. you are right E rated is a good improvement to be safe and most people go to 35 or 37 right away anyway. So the owner of AEV who is a pretty smart guy told me the reason for the lower payload is actually from the...

    Ram 2500 long term reliability

    it is all a matter of what you are comfortable with. go to any PW forum or fb page and you will find they are probably the most overloaded rig out there. airbags and cradles and call it a day. I have had mine over by several hundred lbs and never really even squatted. I had a GFC and gear and...

    RSI Smartcap - Any feedback?

    If you ask they will send you lock covers free of charge. Not sure why they don't just include them but maybe it doesn't get cold in south Africa. I had them send me some. They have great service

    Ram 2500 long term reliability

    I would have no issue pulling a 7600 gvwr trailer. mine has almost 11000 lb tow capacity. Fortunately I am able to use my truck while waiting for the parts. front drive shaft only turns while in 4wd so other than slinging grease all over when in 4wd no big deal. the rear seal is just seeping at...

    Ram 2500 long term reliability

    I like my 2020 Power Wagon and it is super comfortable. My wife has a newer CRV touring that gets around 30mpg and we opted to take the PW on our latest 3000 mile trip even with the price of gas just because it is so comfortable. But in reality I have had more issues with this truck than any of...
