I was holding off until i did more to it but im bored at work so lol.
Say good bye to the TJ
and hello to the new Megacab
(as you can see, we like our megacabs)
Its a 2007 (air quotes) "1500" megacab with the Hemi 5.7. the 1500 gets the air quotes because All 3rd generation Mega Cab 1500's are a 3/4 (as in 2500) ton truck with a slightly reduced GVW. The frame, axles, brakes, wheels, are all 3/4 ton Dodge parts. This was a ploy by Dodge to trick some people into thinking they were buying a 1/2 ton truck because Dodge did not actually have a big cab available that was built on the IFS 1500 Ram platform. At the most the spring rates may be softer than a 3/4 ton Mega Cab.
The TJ was just too small, the wife hated riding in it, and our Diesel megacab was having some injector issues and if it broke down then we had nothing else to pull our trailers. I would have preferred another Cummins but that adds an easy $10K to the price and about 200K more miles. So i stripped some things off the jeep (winch, sub, soft top), left the light bar (even though it was an expensive light bar i was never impressed with it and had more light output from some china ones).
Upgrades so far
a superchips flashpaq 5 tuner
K&N true cold air intake
added the self-powered sub from the TJ (truck was pre-wired)
right now i am working on a new tent rack that will be able to move from truck to truck with my new 270 degree awning.
