    WOW, that is a rare bird. The only other guy I know who has a relationship with that FMTV Prototype is Joaquin Suave.

    You can see plenty of their 'real drive-able hardware' on their website. ⇩ There is certainly nothing wrong with them posting future projects, and if you read the messaging you can see they are hoping to find the ultimate starting point of a Kodiak/Topkick.

    Weight estimation - DIY Ram 3500 with Total Composites or Box Manufaktur

    I don't know if it is in your calculations, but if you are installing a flatbed, figure around 400-500 pounds removed for the factory 8' bed. And if you are going to 37s, did you add in the weight increase for the 4 tires and rims?

    The BEST platform to build on! Not that I am biased :rolleyes: 1st hot tip. Find a used factory battery box (like under your passenger door) and install it under the passenger side second door. It will give you space for 3 more 'house batteries', and there is room for one or two more in the...
