Looking forward to seeing more updates, this should be a cool build. Any immediate plans? Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

Leer 100XL The latest mod to the truck is my Leer 100XL camper shell. I have wanted a shell since I bought the truck, but wasn't at the point where I wanted to spend the money yet. For my uses the extra secured and covered area will be a great advantage. I actually wanted a cap on my old '07...

2m/70cm Mobile Install I spent a couple of months trying to decide which mobile radio I wanted to go with. Part of me wanted to go all out with something like a Yaesu FTM-400, but I eventually moved on from that due to the cost. I knew I at least wanted a remote head radio which took out a few...

Cell Phone Mount My phone also pulls GPS duty and I was getting tired of it sitting in the cup holder, so I started looking around at mounts. I was looking for something vehicle specific and also expandable since I knew I would be putting in a mobile radio at some point. I came across a few...

Really like the convertible bed. How are you liking the Decked? I'm looking at picking one up for my full size. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

Looks good man. Let's see some more pictures! Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

Just found this, it looks like they will be hitting the market very soon. http://www.digitaltrends.com/outdoors/goal-zero-next-generation-power-ces-2017/#/6

Ram is doing this as well. We get Goodyear Wrangler SRAs stock and they are a terrible tire for a truck. I think they are trying to keep cost down as well as weight to increase the MPGs. It's one of those things though that I have trouble justifying replacing on a DD when there is tread left...

2m/70cm Antenna Install Next up on the install list was a dual band antenna. I got my Ham license this past October and was using the HT in the cab with pretty poor results. I knew for sure I did not want a magnetic antenna and would be getting a cap soon, so my options for mounting were...

Luckily I just had some wet seats on occasion. It's really a shame that a bad gasket is such an issue, even across manufacturers. You'd think they spend more money dealing with all the warranty work than it would cost to build them right.

General Mods - Cabin Air Filter / Leak Fix I have a couple of general vehicle modifications I've done since picking up the truck, so I'll just combine them into one post. First thing up was installing a cabin air filter. For some reason the Rams all came with the area marked for a cabin...

I think a bumper sticker needs to be on your mod list. Good looking build so far, can't wait to see more. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

Amazing work on that engine! The color also looks great, I personally like it a lot more than the red everyone seems to use when repainting a Cummins. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

I'd agree with the other folks here saying to use the roof NMO all the time. You will have a much better ground plane and get better results. I have a Diamond NR72BNMO, which is pretty compact and only about 13 inches. I can easily hit repeaters 30 to 40 miles away at 50W. As someone else...

Edge CTS2 / NVH Foam Removal Shortly after buying the truck I preordered an Edge CTS2. I wanted to be able to keep an eye on boost, EGTs, and regens while driving the truck and this seemed like the best way to do that. Using my phone and Torque was a cheap option, but too much of a pain for...

I am extremely happy with my Ram. No manufacturer is without their own problems and nowadays I think all the big players are on a pretty level playing field. But to each their own. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

Ram also has a CC with a 6'4" bed. Wheelbase is 149". It's a big truck no doubt, but a great combo IMO.

I appreciate the welcome wanderer. You have a nice build going on yourself; I stumbled upon it after some of your posts in some of the diesel threads. GDE for me probably won't happen for a while though. I'm a little hesitant for a tune while under warranty. Last thing I want is to fight FCA...

Starting off a build thread for my 2015 Ram 1500. I've been slowly adding modifications to the truck since I bought it in April of 2015, but have recently joined Expedition Portal. The build will be very general purpose oriented; I won't be building this truck to rock crawl or hard core wheel...

Will be replacing the tires on my 15 here in the next 6 to 9 months and would love to hear your thoughts as you get more miles on the Falkens. I'm trying to decide between the same two tires in the same size. Are you running the stock wheels still? Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk
