    Frustrations of a 2nd Gen Ram Interior

    This truck has got to be the most frustrating vehicle I have owned (of 44) for doing interior modifications. Dodge really didn't leave a lot of area to add anything, especially with the dash. First off, the '94-'97 has got to have the worst cup holders ever designed into a truck. You can only...

    '97 Dodge Ram 2500, 4x4 Cummins Powered

    Well, with my decision to sell my M1010 project due to just not enough time to really build what I wanted, I was on the look out for a Ram truck. I knew I wanted to go with a 2500 series as I wanted the solid front axle and basic suspension as my Cherokee. They are very similar and I know my...

    Hi all, I am building a CUCV M1010 ambulance into an offroad camping rig. I have recently put 35" tires on but with the 4.56 gears, I am still very limited in top speed and keeping the RPM's reasonable.

    Hi-Lift or jack for heavy vehicles?

    Now that I am working on my M1010 ExPo project, I was checking on Hi-Lift's site and am concerned about the load rating of the jack versus the weight of the 1010. Right now it weighs in at 6800 lbs. but I haven't removed or added anything yet. I'm figuring on about a 8000-84000 lbs rig when...

    Asymmetrical Roof Rack Idea. Thoughts?

    Hi everyone, So I have been thinking about building my roof rack for a couple years. I keep coming up with new ideas and had finally planned on what I was going to do. That was until I got a great deal on an African Outback 6' awning. My original design was going to be 5'x4'. Now I need to...
