Always been a fan of the powerwagons but had diesels the past 15yrs . Past trucks were always set up with carli or thunen, I'm a dealer for both.

Anyways current truck 19 powerwagon, thuren springs F&R, thuren rear trac bar, 3.0 kings up front, 2.5's in the rear., 37 bfg km3's on 18x9 methods (5.75bs), magnaflow exhaust, amp steps, and a pedal commander.

Lot of good advise on this site!!

Here's the old shop truck the powerwagon replaced.View attachment 194707

I'm about to pull the trigger on some new wheels and am torn between those Methods in that color and some AEV Salta's. Seeing them on your truck makes me really lean towards the Methods. What does the bronze look like in person? How do you think it would look on a white truck? (I've seen one picture of them on a white PW and they looked pretty good, but always hard to tell in pictures)

I was thinking the same. I saw them a a white chevy in person recently. It’s the way to go I think. They look awesome. Very similar in color to the pics he posted

White with the bronze looks really nice, here's a pic of a white ram we did with the bronze. 15RAM.2.jpg 15RAM.jpg

I feel like the bronze is either a love it or hate it thing. When I first saw it I didn't like it, but now I do. Guess I need to decide if I'll ever sway back to the "don't like it" side. Thanks for the pics!

Figured with the hardware you were running on your rigs you'd have been on over there.

I was, had the same name over there. Had an 06 QCSB with a thuren fox 2.0 setup. After riding with my buddy Tgibbs in barstow in his 3.5" king setup I'll never be happy with how a normal suspension performs.

How you like the hemi vs Cummins

Gorgeous truck! Love the contrast with the bronze wheels. Are the km3's 12.5 or 13.5s? Any shots from the front or back to see how much if any the tires stick out? I'm debating some 18x9 Methods with the +18 offset vs 17x8.5 AEV with +27 offset. Also debating 12.5 vs 13.5 wide on some km3's.

Its a forum. Dodge Trucks Extreme. It's still active but no where near as awesome as it used to be. Thuren and his main guy Aaron, CJC offroad guys, Synergy, Pure Performance, Carli, 8lug Truck Gear, The now owner of Holman Offroad. Check it out, the boards are filled with so much info ots absurd. Just made me spend stupid amounts of money. That's where the OG Dodge 2500 guys were. Think Pirate 4x4 and Ram Forum had a baby....thats how that **** show went.

We had a good run. Can’t wait to get this one in the woods. Side by side pic is the dealer taking my tire off and putting them on the new rig. Had the stickers on it. Couldn’t live with that. I took all the accessories except my amp steps and bed cover
