    On-Board Air for Power Wagon

    I want to find an ignition I can tap off for the switch. Dead battery would be a real bummer. As for the quick connects, I think you were the one that was going to mount them in the sliders. Did you ending doing that? And if so how did it work out? I have some Maple sliders on order, and I am...

    On-Board Air for Power Wagon

    Thank you for the info, and so promptly! I knew the harness was short for the bed install, the main reason I am nervous about doing the extension myself. My plan is to mount the toggle switch in that same corner, but I couldn't locate my dremel. Probably have to remove the box again to...

    On-Board Air for Power Wagon

    Started installing my on board air this weekend. I chose the ARB dual compressor with a 1 gallon air tank, and I placed them in my rambox on the passenger side. I'd say I am 40% of the way done. I have not run any hoses yet, and I have not tackled the wiring. Honestly I am a little nervous...

    camping set up with ram boxes

    I'll second dethloff. I have their skid plate waiting to be installed, and the quality is top notch. Their contour rack is the best looking one I have seen for our trucks

    Gremlin4x Power Wagon

    YES!! Awesome. Mine are on order. I can't wait to get them. I added an extra inch or so to the width for a more functional step. Looking good!

    Power Wagon Tires - Post Up Your Info

    This is the best price I have found https://www.summitracing.com/parts/pbt-pb1557re All the other sites that had them seem to be more in the $500 range. I am also torn between the A/T vs M/T. I am new to trucks and just looking to get into off-roading. My gut is the A/T will be a better...

    Power Wagon Tires - Post Up Your Info

    I am thinking the same thing. After living in Colorado and now Maine, I can definitely appreciate a tire that performs well in winter conditions. When it is time to replace my tires, I am probably going to go with a set of 5 of these...

    Pulling a camper in a Power Wagon, how big?

    I assume you are talking about solar when referring to the panels. I put a deposit down on one of these https://inergytek.com/collections/kits/products/silver-kit-inergy-flex-ac-dc-control-station-with-one-200w-ascent-folding-panel I find the modular system to be a very useful idea. I would...

    On-Board Air for Power Wagon

    Really like your setup. Well thought out and well constructed. I am debating on placing an air chuck on both sides of the truck. I will probably wait until I get my sliders that are on order before I make any final decisions. I plan on installing a small 1 gallon tank. I want to have to...

    Black Lug Nuts

    Had Gorilla's on our old Grand Cherokee. No issues, held up nicely, and look great.

    Trade in value increasing rapidly

    In May I got top dollar for my trade. 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT with 22,300 miles on it. Of course they tried to jerk me around. Put it up on some site to check interest in the 30 minutes I was there. They came back and offered me $30k. I said that is a non-starter, got in my SRT, and...

    Optimal dual battery mod for ‘19 PW

    Anybody looked into or used these systems. Obviously not this one specifically as it is still in pre-order, but they have other models that seem to have been selling for awhile. https://inergytek.com/products/flex-1500-power-station-presale-deposit We travel with our dogs for agility...

    Got my warlock home!

    I bought some gorilla automotive black locking lug nuts for my old Grand Cherokee High Altitude. Had no issues with them, and I appreciated the extra security of all locking lugs. I can't stand the chrome lugs on blacked out wheels. It makes zero sense to me why the factory would have all...

    IRSmart build log, “Big Red”

    Why do you not recommend mounting the Hi Lift in this location? This is exactly how I would like to mount a Hi Lift in my truck. I have the rambox system, so I will only be able to fit the 48" jack.

    Measurement please

    My stock 2020 PW sits at 42" at the front wheel well and 44" at the back. This is on the stock 33" tires just to let you know.

    Maple Offroad sliders

    Emailed with Neil at Maple Offroad today. Pulled the trigger on a set of sliders and a skid plate. I was concerned with the step width, and I was looking to get around 7" from the body. That is about the same distance from the cab as the OEM steps. I believe it is going to add about 1"-1.5"...

    Maple Offroad sliders

    I agree 100%. This should be moved back to the Power Wagon forum. I found this thread on a google search, despite lurking on this forum for several weeks. I am looking to order a set of the Maple sliders. My 85yr old Father-in-law lives with us, and I need a usable step for him to enter the...

    Dog "Mods"

    Ours are definitely pampered. We have four total. Only one will actually jump in the truck. One is too old, one is too fat, and one is too much of a princess. It was taking a toll on our bodies lifting nearly 300lbs of dog into the back seat, and I'm not of fan of the nail scratches on the...

    That is pretty cool. Is that a cutout for dog bowls too?

    What did you Trade in for the new one?

    Traded my 2015 Grand Cherokee SRT with only 22,300 miles on it. Bought it new and was only a couple of payments from paying it off. Truly did love that car, but it didn't fit our lifestyle in the woods of Maine. Enjoyed driving the car, but I hated putting the miles on it. Dealer offered me...

    Dog "Mods"

    Hi everyone! As I mentioned in a different post, I am a new PW owner. Love, love, love this truck, and so do our dogs. I'm pretty sure that I have spent more on them than I have for myself with the new ride. With that said, here are my purchases for the PW Pups so far: Stairs. Purchased...

    Power Wagons ... Post em up!

    Nice ride! I agree with Trailmaker, skip straight to the sliders. Kind of wish my truck didn't have the sidesteps, so I could justify the sliders more right now. I'll be looking to sell my sidesteps when I save up for the sliders.

    Power Wagons ... Post em up!

    Ugh, don't let my wife see that. Honestly, I have 4k-5k of mods I would like just from Dethloff and Maple Offroad. Free plugs on our dog's IG page if I can get a discount on those ;)...

    New PW owner. First time truck owner to be honest. Traded in a 2015 Grand Cherokee SRT. Loved that thing, but I love this truck even more. Looking forward to learning the ropes of off-roading. A few pics of the new ride. Excuse the nice yellow tint on the truck from all the pollen...
