    2020 Ram 5500 DIY Composite Panel Camper Build Thread

    i get 9-10 mpg combined with a mix of 50/50 on and off road driving. we also do a 3000+ mile trip every summer in fact heading across the north border this year. i will spend just under $2800 in fuel if the average price is $7 per gallon. we looked into the alternative. first leave the rig we...

    Maybe EarthRoamer used the wrong tires???

    i still run 6 toyos on 19.5s. never have an issue. can air them down to 65 for a nice off road ride, 130 on the hyw for millage. can get them in lots of places and can run one single on the rear should the day get real bad. this set up works fine for me in the CAL.NAV desert where i do most of...

    Tire Chains for a Dually Ambulance

    auto chains are useless off road. three rail chains, for duallys, are a pain in the ass to install . singles are best. one block of wood under the inside tire gets the outside up in the air. makes putting them on and off real fast. billybob has a good point but lets be honest. snow covered deep...

    Winch mounting question.

    If its only for self recovery the rear might be the best place. not to often you need to pull your self farther into trouble. i guess for the " i almost made it" spots.

    Winch mounting question.

    i have a 12k winch and buckstop bumper on my 01 F250. installed it in 01. lots of money. looks real cool. NEVER used it once for my self. only to rescue "friends" and strangers. not really worth the money looking back. it's like owning a small trailer and a dolly, everybody's your friend when...

    Newbie needs assistance with tire choice for new to me 2020 F550 4x4 Overlander

    For me the choice of tire/rim options that can handle my weight are limited. unless i want to move into super singles with 40+" tires. i am already 146" tall and the thought of 5+ more inches of tire and lift kit is not appealing. not to mention the body mods to clear the big tires. let face the...

    axle placement

    always keep 60%+ on the ball in any load configuration. if you deviate from this the trailer will duck walk behind you and at speed can flip the whole rig. not pretty. happens all the time with u-haul trailers.

    Newbie needs assistance with tire choice for new to me 2020 F550 4x4 Overlander

    i run toyo 19.5" at 50 psi in the dirt all the time. duels in the back have not been an issue to date. i like having 3 spares knowing i can run a single in the rear if need be. 19.5 is a very popular tire size so finding one in a pinch would not be to hard. i have not rolled a bead to date. i...
