    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    So the good news is that the stock wiring harness is more than long enough to relocate the camera with the kit they include. If you look at my previous photos it’s relocated to the top of the license Plate with the same offset. This means the backup lines for the edge of the vehicle are in the...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    I didn’t buy it, I was sponsored - however I didn’t know, or atleast it wasn’t made clear to me that mine was a prototype build and not the actual production model. That’s why I regret it. I always preface that I’ll give honest feedback even if it’s free, but I regret not giving E1 more time to...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    UPDATE In the spirit of full disclosure, i Just received an email from E1 that says that they have addressed the issues above by spacing the bumper further away from the body slightly by 3/4- 1" and stiffened the arms. this will allow the inevitable flex, without contacting the body in any...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    unsure. its sitting in my garage right now. They're well aware of my displeasure and issues with it. unless they want it back, i'll probably end up selling it for a heavy heavy discount so someone can make any alterations they want to it to bring it to spec and not be out gobs of money. its a...

    ooookay, updates time! current ass standing! Untitled by Will Marshal, on Flickr i relocated the camera down to the license plate. unfortunately despite E1's initial promise of a cable to extend the harness, i unhooked it from the tailgate and i no longer have a power lock on the tailgate...

    Another Ram 3500 build...

    unfortunately Ford forces you to do a Lariat Ultimate package to even get the quad beam LED's unless you want to rig them aftermarket, which is notttttttt cheap.

    Ultimate Square Body Suburban Overland Build

    this is awesome. i want an old square body so bad, but they're all rusty around here and the rust free ones are top dollar unless you know someone or can drive around looking for one

    Ram 2500 XL for overland / expedition trips

    i cant imagine that the tire wouldnt happily hold up to higher speeds considering that their weight rating is directly influencing the speed rating as well.

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    I think only a couple fit, the PW's have an extra crossmember that the regular trucks dont have. Im not certain on this though. you lose 5" of clearance at the rocker panel. they are roughly even with the bottom of the frame rail give or take a little. the Randy Ellis sleeksters mount to the...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    i did, but i took it off for daily use because i haven't figured out a solution for the backup camera yet, and with the reversing sensors in-op, backing this thing up anywhere is a total pain in the ass. Its easy as can be when you know where the ass end of the truck is, without either one of...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    I got a sPOD HD, and I've been struggling to figure out a place to mount the control panel. Wasn't totally sure on what was going to be the best method for getting it done. I had come up with three different places that i thought would work. One was in the dash were the 110 outlet and mostly...

    Vanilla Gorilla: 2017 Power Wagon build

    yeah their setup is a lasered and braked stainless steel bracket, no harness extension. Tomorrow afternoon im going to pull the tailgate access plate and disconnect the camera and do some research on the harness. and yes on the sensors, i've just shut them off for now. Im not sure what to do...
