Looks like it sold.

Nope, wasn't me. I was driving around my neighborhood in Mira Mesa Saturday afternoon.

Well... having stalled on the box move project for the moment, I decided to tackle a very long, outstanding project. 2.5 years ago, I installed the front Bilstein shocks but never the rear. Problem I ran into was, I had read the lower bolt was 9/16" diameter but the sleeves for the shock...

Man if I wasn't already deep into my build projects, I would pick this up. Looks like a great start for a good rig that is well priced. No affiliation, just popped up on FB Marketplace https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1576488766049377 $10,900 (in Garden Grove, CA ) Miles 132,000...

Oh and I would likely add gussets to the inner and out plates, tied into your bumper. This would help the side to side flex. Actually if I was making this, I would have used rectangle tubing, cutting a diagonal off the wide side but leaving it fully boxed where it welds to the bumper. This...

If you sleeve it, you can keep the inner 2 plates, just torque them good. If it's a snug fit, it will camp down tight since the frame will not flex in with the sleeves. The extra support of the two plates is better than not having them. If the frame was a C channel, then likely a single plate...

Agree, sleeving the bolts will help prevent crushing of the frame when you tighten everything. I only wish there was a cross member you could also tie into on a horizontal plane. Straight pulls will be fine but if having to pull from an angle, I could see the potential of pulling the frame...

@Motafinga Just read through you full build. Nice setup and nice work on the SF and box/camper setup. Curious, have you ever weighed the full rig (loaded up and ready to go)? I have a 2000 Ram 2500 and without the bed, I got it weighed and it came in at 6000 lbs. GVWR is 8800 lbs. I saw...

Sadly already sold.

Well that went sideways. Working on taking the box off so I could test fit to the Ram. Got all the rivets out holding the boot to the cab. Got all but 4 bolts removed, holding the box. Moved the M1010 to my side yard, to remove the rest and lift the box off. Well.... I hadn't counted on the...

I have read that many 3M VHB sold on Amazon is counterfeit, not real 3M products. I'll be buying from a known dealer.

Yeah, I have ran into similar issues looking for our Ram. I want to go up from the OEM 16" to a 17" wheel, so I can do the 3rd Gen Ram larger front disc brakes. They won't clear the 16" wheel.

Cool rig. Got a question on how you mounted the Garmin on your dash? I have a 2000 Ram and am looking at a way to mount my Overlander. Thanks

Drooling over that as I have wanted a 712 for about 10 years. Watching the video though, I noticed the cab over roof is not sealed to the actual cab. There is a gap over the windshield, doors and the back of the cab is not even closed. This this was unfinished. Otherwise very cool.

I am interested but wouldn't be able to pick it up until Saturday evening. Is that doable?

Do you have a link for these, as I cannot find them on their website?

Likely depends on the state. In CA, when I converted my previous Ram with FWC over to an RV title, it meant I could NOT haul anything, not even a spare tire in the bed if the camper was not installed. Now the likelihood this would ever become an issue was very low but it was a legal...

Actually mine is the Sport model so this was the factory setup. Being factory, low beams stay on with the high beams. Still underwhelmed by stock lights but I needed something that was more than the brightness of a candle the original lights gave. I am really spoiled with my JW Speaker LED...

Well did a few things over the long weekend. Both projects worked out but both ended up being more work than expected. First up was replacing the very yellowed headlights. Due to the grill guard and the alignment of the bumper, I could not get to a couple of the bolts that held in the...
