E’s Mega Cab build

Really like the way that rear mat wraps around like that. The version for my 2016 does not do that?


.

I was pleasantly surprised by that as well. Any extra protection is a win in my book.

Just got my Weathertech window visors on. Only cost me $78 and they look good. I love the low-pro look on the front. The rear sticks out a little more, but there must be a reason for that. I had some of my techs put them on for me, so I am not much help for install questions.

Got confirmation that my first(less expensive) set of wheels are confirmed but the tires are still on back order. I’m very limited on what I can choose on a 39 inch tire, or I would choose something else. Still excited though. No update on my lift yet, getting a little worried.

Great progress already! I love my weathertechs! Really wish I could justify a truck like this. Look forward to the build!

Why a 39" tire? There be a lot more choices in a 40 or going down to a 37 (and the transmission would be happier).

The cheaper set will be a 39 inch tire, the more expensive set will have 40's. Will be using the 39's a lot more than the 40's, those will be more for summer and when I go to meets, when those are allowed again. My buddy has a leveling kit with 37's on the same truck and it looks great, so with an 8 inch lift I will want to have a bigger tire to fill the gap.

Thank you very much!

Well, got an email after all this time saying they can not supply the 39’s. So I paid for the upgrade to 40’s on the cheap set of wheels as well. Hello cutting/trimming..

 

[ethanmhanks]

Until I get the lift, wheel and tires, I threw a leveling kit, shocks and 35x12.5 tires on it. Just couldn't stand leaving it stock. Also, the second picture has my old truck in the background. Miss it sometimes.

I forgot to add that I took the Ram badge off the doors, and removed the 4X4 sticker off the side of the bed.

Temporary wheels are on. 20x12 Hostile's and 2 inch spacers. Cream copper color to match the cream white. Rubs hard, but will trim a bit here soon.

I'm a big dude. 6'4". I need to get inside one of these MegaCabs. Maybe they have been what's been missing my entire life.
