That is a Beast! Looks great! Not over done but enough to punch you in the face and make you go "THAT ain't stock!).

I'm working toward that look with a white Tradesman CC LB 6.4 4x4 4.10's(soon to be 5.13's). You just convinced me I gotta go with 37" tires. My 33's are almost 34. That ain't far from 35. Gotta go 37.

Thanks I appreciate it. 5.13 gears will be really nice. With 37's after the calculation for gear ratio I believe I'm sitting around a 4.10 ratio and running around 2500 to 2700 RPM's at about 60 65 MPH

Looking Good! On our way home today I was able to see your truck in person in Redmond. Nice work.

Thanks. There is still a lot left to do, it's such a fun truck though.

It is quite a difference from when you bought it. Been following your build on the Power Wagon site. I've installed the Thuren suspension on mine and enjoy it very much.

You aren't lying, I went back and looked at pictures from the day I bought the truck. It feels like another lifetime but less than three years ago.

I'll post pictures as I go, Don is working on the outers for the AEV flares. I think he's going to make a few sets which will fit on any of his 4th Gen bumpers, hemi or diesel. Working with Thuren has been great, I explain what I'm thinking and he reviews it with his own input. I've done a lot of suspension work over the years and he seems to be on the same page, the rear track bar and airbags are a good example. At some point I want to tackle the radius arms and rear control arms but it is lower on my priority list.

I have lights coming and then I'll be working on an auxiliary fuel cell. I'm not sure what the perfect truck looks like but I think I'm getting closer to it.

Man, I alway’s wished my wagon had 4.56 gears with the stock 33’s. You ever wish you would have skipped them and went to 4.88 or 5.13 for the 37’s, or is it fine with that setup?

Nicw looking truck!

I love my 4.56 gears if I would go up it would only be to 4.88. My truck shift points are basically back to how it ran with my 3.73 gears. Only complaint i have is they have a small amount of winding noise basically only i can hear it. Besides that absolutely wouldn't change a thing.

Love that look. I just bought a White 2500 CC LB Tradesman. Trying to figure out what lift/level kit and rim combo to go with now. I'm gonna go with an 18" but still on the fence between 295 70 18 or 35 12.5 18 - Nitto's though

Hey I can add a pic in here now lol before and after. Thurber overland 3” front 1.5” rear l, rear track bar kit and well.....front track bar once we find it lol. Also new tires went from basically a 33” to a 35x12.5 and later will be 17” runs with 37’s after I change gears.

Pics when you figure it out. Got the same problem. White 2500 CC, LB that needs bigger tires.
