    Msrp went up while sitting in D1 status…..

    The same thing happened with the Wranglers. I have one on order so I have been watching this on the JL forum. Mine was invoiced before the price increase but sounds like they are honoring orders that were placed before the increase. I assume Rams will be similar. There has been some examples...

    trdt44 Power Wagon Build Thread

    I have not done it yet. I put dual lithium batteries in the camper and it has not been a priority to add a second to the truck. I had bought an OEM second battery mount from a diesel truck to use. It is a tight fit with the air cleaner box and have not figured out what modifications are needed...

    Differential options

    From what I can tell the rear has the same differential, pinion bearings, etc as previous years. It has a different ring/pinion and output flange that match other 2500's. I have read that they have a new 32 spline pinion which would make sense with the changes. Looks like Nitro is coming out...

    Differential options

    Does anybody know for sure what changed with the '19+ Power Wagon axles? From the outside they appear the same to the '18 PW axles. Both take the same gaskets as previous axles. I know the other 19+ 2500 trucks got a completely new rear axle.

    trdt44 Power Wagon Build Thread

    For sure, while I was waiting for mine I spent a lot of time on the forums and facebook. When they do come up for sale they are gone so fast. Mine took about 10 months but I know they are a lot longer than that now. Good luck and hopefully you find something sooner than later.

    trdt44 Power Wagon Build Thread

    I would agree that this is the best thing I have purchased. I like to get away from the crowds and this is perfect for that. I was thinking about trimming the front bumpers, I didn't like how far back it was sitting. I will get that done while I have it off the truck. I am located in Northern...

    trdt44 Power Wagon Build Thread

    Here are a couple of pictures of the switch panel and fuse panel. The switches work just like OEM. I did have to work with Alfa OBD to get them turned on. I have some extra connectors to make a harness that plugs into the back of the switch panel if anybody is looking to add the switches. I have...

    trdt44 Power Wagon Build Thread

    Your setup is sweet also. Is your Hawk a shell version? Have you done any modifications to it? I currently have mine off the truck, built a platform to be able to move it around. To my shell I have currently added a 200w solar panel, Redarc DC to DC charger, Victron BMV, dual lithium batteries...

    What have you broken while wheeling and how

    Not sure about the Carli but the Maple Offroad diff guard fit my PW with no modification. I also have their PW 3 bar place replacement skid. Highly recommend. eta: Just noticed you are in Canada, so is Maple Offroad.

    Got the Four Wheel camper this year. I am really liking this setup. The airbags and cradles work great handling the extra weight.

    Another build thread

    You were able to find some gears that worked? If so who did your swap? I have been trying to find info on my '19 for a long time. Nice build btw. Somewhat similar to mine but I am only running 37s.

    Thoughts on a regear with 37s?

    I did use this article quite a few times when trying to find the 4.56 gears with the larger pinion.

    Thoughts on a regear with 37s?

    I would be interested to know if they use the conversion bearings in the rear. The newer axles use a larger pinion and as far as I know nobody makes 11.5" gears lower than 4.44 with the larger pinion. AAM did make direct fit 4.56 and 5.13 for a time but no longer make them. Aftermarket gears use...

    Talk me into (or out of) 37's

    I also run the KM3s in 37x12.5, which do run small. They occasionally slightly rub the rear of the front fender liner on the driver side. Eventually I am going to take the liner off and bend the pinch weld. I am going to try and heat the liner to make it more flat in that area. As far as...

    Accessory power off of battery? ps AMP running boards still suck!

    I assume the instructions are the same for your year where you have to stand and bounce on them. It took me like 15 minutes of doing it per side. I even called customer support and the told me to keep doing it. Mine have been great since I finally got them to clear. Also I ran power directly to...
