Yes, it’s largely just the switch. I also don’t really want to attach it anywhere in the interior. You make a good point about mounting the switch in the engine bay. Any key benefits you see for mounting it in the engine bay instead of an ammo can?

The camper won't interfere with the ammo cans and I've seen videos where people have installed the compressor there. For the engine bay, I don't really want to send any wiring through the firewall. I don't have a great reason, just seeing if I can avoid it. With the ammo can examples, the...

I’m working through the planning on where to install my ARB twin compressor in a 2021 Power Wagon. I’d rather not install it in the engine bay. I have a Decked Drawer system in the bed and it will eventually have a Super Pacific camper installed. I’ve seen examples where the compressor has been...

You can also stand up in a GFC, Super Pacific, etc. whereas you cannot with the cap and RTT combo.

Great. Thank you @jadmt .

What size did you get?

Measured it this morning with the truck pointed the opposite direction. Still 3/4 inch difference on the same sides. I'll try again on another flat surface, but I would expect whatever lean there is from my driveway would have been leveled out or reversed when parking the opposite way.

I thought so too. It’s also possible my driveway isn’t as flat as I think. I’ll have to give it another try somewhere else.

And done. I measured the height of the rear wheel wells to ground also. Was 43.75” passenger side and 43” driver side. After installation it dropped .75” on each side.

This weekend’s project…

My understanding, but I can't find a link on it, is that the 3" lift applies to the standard 2500 and standard length coils and shocks. The Power Wagon comes with a factory 2" lift, which should include longer shocks and coils. So, I'm making up math here, these are not real numbers. But if...

Took the truck for our first road trip. Headed to Telluride for the long weekend and met up with some friends from Atlanta who are spending the month there. I was quite impressed with the truck as a road trip vehicle. The rear end rode better now that it had weight in it. Plus, the adaptive...

Same here. I’m trying to keep weight down, given the limited GVWR and would rather have more space and less stuff off the back. Those Boreas Campers are sweet. I couldn’t get my wife convinced to go that direction (nor to move to Seattle). They’re located about 20 minutes from me and we went...

That’s the rub, right?!

What drove the final decision? I picked up Staun, so just curious.

Yeah, we found even on first trail outing we were amazed at how well it went up a few hills that were slick from rain and rutted. The bigger tires do look better though!

Thanks for the advice and info thus far. @GreggNY I think you nailed it with the capital IF. I’m planning to use it a bit and see what our true needs are before a decision on tire changes. 37s would require a method to carry the spare and new wheels, plus the price of those tires. I think for...

Thanks for the feedback @Pnwfullsize and @nater, I’ll do some research on that front. In other news, got emails today that my compressor (ordered 5/15) and drawers have shipped. Excited to get those soon.

Thought I'd start a build thread on our new Power Wagon. My toddler son keeps referring to the PW as the "Monster Truck". I previously had a 2000 Ford Expedition that was called Gigantor and the name keeps coming back to me. Considering my previous vehicles include a Honda Civic Si, two Honda...
