    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    I’ve had it for less than a week so far. I loved my tent, but this has the whole lower section this to around. So far I’m really pleased and I’m enjoying the ability to use the entire rear of the bed in inclement weather and lock it down tight

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    just wrapped up a 4000 mile trip in the PW in 6 days. Departed Louisville KY this past Thursday and made my way to Bozeman MT. I drove 1000 miles straight on the lowest grade of fuel available, with ethanol to Mitchell SD, where I slept in the truck and idled the engine for 7 hours straight...

    Power Wagons

    from my understanding, internal combustion engines that run on hydrogen are basically super turbo two stroke diesels, and you still have the issue of thermal efficiency loss through friction.

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    Unsure. It looks like the easiest thing I can do will be to be making a fender liner extension from aluminum sheet, and fastening the stock liners to them, or making all new ones from poly there is a pretty substantial lip already in place on these Fiberwerx fenders. My plan right now is to fit...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    my main big expense that I'm looking to is re-gearing. Im not going to touch the suspension until the OEM shocks are burned up

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    just doing the front, i'll leave the rear alone. Im picking up my GoFast Camper on the 12th, and the bedsides are structural for the bed as far as i know. On my 4Runner i did high clearance fenders in the front, and left the rear alone with the stock black flares and i really liked the look, so...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    Ordered the Fiberwerx fenders today as part of their 20% off Christmas sale. Not sure of the lead time on them, I imagine they will need to make them and then send them out. Had toyed with ordering carbon fiber, and having it cleared and just leaving it on there but in the end decided against it...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    looks like i'll be heading up to Bozeman again January 10th to go get the rest of my GoFast Camper setup, then loop down through Utah and into Grand Junction to stop and hangout with Matt from Maxtrax. We'll get to put these Severe Snow rated AT3w's to the test.

    Ram 3500- 68RFE or Aisin, help me build!

    i Just meant to point out, as you already did - that all manufacturers have issues and recalls shouldnt be a measurement of the quality of the vehicle you must have me mistaken with someone else, because i haven't made any negative comments about my Power Wagon - I love the truck and ive said...

    Durango/Expedition/Tahoe - Chassis and Suspension differences?

    I wouldn't say that the hydroforming thickness variance is a "problem". The current RAM frame was introduced in 2014.

    Expedition One Rear Bumper

    honestly with as expensive as they are, it shouldn't be a 100% buy in up front, a deposit would be a better bet. I would imagine they're using peoples "deposits" to finance production before the product is delivered

    Durango/Expedition/Tahoe - Chassis and Suspension differences?

    the current generation of Power Wagon Uses the same frame as the RAM 2500 and 3500 - the difference being that the 2500's and all have 5 link rear suspension with coils instead of leafs like on the 3500. those number is I provided were from a Chrysler spec sheet. I think where the difference...
