    Looking for a 2005-2010 Dodge Power Wagon, crew cab, manual transmission. Let me know if you have one or have seen one in a sale ad. I am located in Montana, but am willing to drive a long distance for the right truck. Thanks

    Just finished the install of a Slip Yoke Eliminator (SYE). I had a transfer case drop for years and didn't think the vibrations were too bad, but man did that make a difference!

    Cold weather Diesel starting.

    Good news on the battery. How cold was it when it wouldn't start? In the case where it was the battery, synthetic engine oil or a block heater will go a long ways in getting it started. Without these things, it is harder for the engine to turn over and is a much higher draw on your battery...

    Extracting Cars from Snow

    A receiver hitch is a very useful recovery point for the rear of a vehicle. Do not loop the strap over a ball if there is any kind of tugging, as the ball can break off and come flying through the windshield. you can either buy a shackle mount insert for the receiver, or my personal favorite...

    Lets see some full size pictures...

    Quite impressive, those trails, while only rated 4 out of 10 on the jeep scale, are not for slouches. Well done! The upgraded tires seem to be an important addition for those trails for added traction but also sidewall strength in the rocks over the stock Goodyears. Airing down would have...

    Lets see some full size pictures...

    Was this "Fins and Things" trail? Were you able to complete the whole trail and was there significant scraping? I am sure the ram is plenty capable, and it looks like you have the right tire choice for the job, just curious about approach/breakover/departure angles. Always happy to see full...

    AEV Prospector

    If you have a good dealership hopefully they don't. But I have definitely heard horror stories of dealerships claiming that warranty is voided for suspension lifts, etc. 40inch tires are definitely going to put extra stress on stock parts as are increased driveline angles. I am not the target...

    AEV Prospector

    I think the big selling point with AEV factory builds is that it is completely thought through product that is assembled in a factory, with a stamped serial number, warranty, financing, and with little sacrifice to day to day use, with fit and finish that is OEM. It is a package that anyone...

    ExPo's 2000 7.3 Excursion Build

    This build has encouraged several people to come out of hiding with their Excursions, new or resurrected threads popping up all over the place! Kudos! I am very interested in this kind of a build, I do not see being able to talk my wife into a 4x4 Van, but this is certainly in the realm of...

    2007 Fleetwood Cobalt

    We are on the 4th season with our camper. We love this little pop-up. Long term durability has proven to be good. My wife and our two boys fit quite well, and we have no intention of selling anytime soon. Ground clearance is more than ample for mild to moderate trail use, and follows the...

    2000 Chevy Suburban Duramax

    Very cool suburban. Keep posting pictures as they come in. Is there any hood open shots? What is it making for fuel mileage?

    K.Ray's Lame Tacoma Build Thread

    This is one of my biggest fears in offroading. Glad everyone made it out ok, as the saying goes, and given the depth of the river in your photos, could have been a lot worse...

    JK Habitat No Longer in Production?

    This new model is a very intriguing update to the previous J180/Habitat. I am excited to see where this goes and how the optional interior access is configured. Do you have any pictures in the closed postition?

    XJ In Perpetual Progress

    I went through that same thought process in the fall when I was gear shopping as I have the 8.25 as well. E locker made the most sense for what I was looking for but not available for the axle, there is some drawbacks to the ox cable to the cab with not getting the cable kinked, cable stretch...
