    Shock absorber needed for batteries?

    I say: Just use a piece or 2 of a foam sleeping pad under the battery. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Stansport-Pack-Lite-Camping-Pad/9856753 I don't have anything under my camper batteries, but it is not an off-road camper. Still, it takes some good jolts on road. No issues.

    Steering overhaul needed on the dodge expo rig... Thoughts?

    Check out the ones Dodge Off-Road has. Lots of good info there as well. Not cheap, but it's done right & we are all gonna have to do it eventually.

    Just about to pull the trigger on a PW till I saw its payload capacity

    5.7, 4.56's in the axles, stock 33" tires, stock suspension, but the G56 trans.(it is geared way lower than the auto---crawl ratio is almost double [78:1] Yes, it has always gotten that mileage, even from new. I just don't know why, when a 707 hp hellcat can get the same or better. Mine should...

    Just about to pull the trigger on a PW till I saw its payload capacity

    Just don't rush into it. What is right for some, may not be, for others. I would not trade mine for nothing. It is what it is. A unique, large 4x4, that is actually made for off-road & gets HORRIBLE mileage. I get 8-10 mpg, empty or loaded. The computer has dropped as low as 3 mpg climbing a...

    Just about to pull the trigger on a PW till I saw its payload capacity

    Yes sir, that was me too. Easy peasy fix. Hellwig Load Pro 35's. About $380 to your door. I tow at max weight. No issues. The added flex is NOT just for rock crawling. More contact with the ground = more traction. I LOVE my Power Wagon. Lockers do not get used all that much...BUT...they are...

    UJOR Build Thread

    The Fox (out of that specific pic of 3) certainly looks more HD to me. If you are overlanding/exploring, in remote areas, i would certainly go with the Fox, of those 3. A rock kicked up at high speed, would have less of a chance of denting/damaging the body or shaft of the Fox. This is just my...

    Manley ORV Original

    I think the 63QT ARB is only 16.85" tall. That would work with or w/o the alum hard top.

    Dexter EZ Lub hub and Bearing grease recommendations?

    I would say: Any high quality regular or full synthetic grease that is recommended for wheel bearings would be fine. Ones that resist water washout are even better. There are ones in the -50*- +350* temp range, ones in the +30* - +600* range & the +600* - +1200* temp range on the Shaeffer web...

    East Coast Market for Aluminum camping trailer - M416 style?

    I think it is a fantastic idea !!! Having said that, i also think many people, such as myself, are looking for something a little bit bigger for a full sized truck (I own a Power Wagon) and a family, who are not hard core off roaders, but want the ability to go far off the beaten path, and take...
