2018 Ram Megacab Swiss Army Knife Build with trailer

Great find on that bumper, truck looks great. Would you happen to have a picture directly from the side to show how far it sticks out with the tire mounted?

I can take one tomorrow and show you.

Thanks. I like it so far. I couldn’t have build one for that price. And let’s face it, I’m getting to old and lazy to fabricate something like that anymore. 41 years old now. Lol.

Do you have backup sensors? If so how do they work with the Aluminess bumper? Does that spare obstruct your view?

I do have them front and rear. And the rear backup camera

I’m going to move the camera.

And I’ll drill holes this weekend and install my backup sensors.

The hole for the trailer plug in worked great. The connector and plug. Hooks right up to the trailer.

Some pictures when we drove over Hells Backbone. Pretty Sweet scenic backway drive.

Finally wired up the cargo view rear camera. Ordered the wiring harness a little bit ago. It was pretty easy.

I had to run the harness from the third brake light to the front of the dash. Made a few connections on the way. And then used some software to let the computer know it was there.

Took a couple hours one evening.

Wired up my new cellphone antenna. This one seems to work a lot better than the old one. I had reception all over around Escalante while I was inside my truck. But nothing when I was outside.

Also ordered some new winch rope. I’m not a fan of cable rope. This is rated for 30k. Hopefully it’ll be good for my truck. And I lost about 30 lbs by swapping over.

Made by ARE off Road.

And I bought one more modification for the truck. It’s coming and will be here Monday.

Pictures once it’s here. Then after that I need to save some more cash for a delete kit and rear locker.

Finally cleaned up my bed. Bought a used tool box.

I bought some nice canvas bags to organize my stuff. Cleaned up the mess pretty nicely.

What cell phone antenna did you get?

 

[getlost4x4]

I got The antenna on amazon.

Its called:

Wilson Electronics 19-inch 4G Truck and RV Spring-Mount Antenna

I tried to find it, but it looks like they stopped selling it.
