Hey guys, I'm Jason from Lebanon, Ohio. I bought my 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 back in January of 2009 and really haven't done much to it. I'm not new to the custom world, I just haven't done much to the ram because I've been spending my time building and riding quads. I recently bought a boat and sold the quad so now the customizing bug is biting me hard again. I joined the forum in hopes to get some gears spinning and get the ball rolling. In the very near future I want to lift the truck, install a nice stereo, intake and exhaust. Eventually I'd like to go with different wheels and tires.

So this was my very first car that I built.

after I painted it.

I sold this car and went on to build this truck. I built this truck 100% myself in my garage over a five year period. This was a complete frame off build.

After this truck, I took a break and got into quads. I build this Banshee and recently sold it.

Okay, now with all that said and done, I'm now wanting to finally start on my Ram. These pictures aren't real new, but other than a set of Cooper Zeon tires it's exactly the same.

So I look forward to meeting everyone here and getting busy on the Ram!

Oh yea for sure. I used to run my own custom suspension and fabrication shop by the name of Jasons Kreationz. I specialized in hydraulic, air ride and one off suspensions. I'm actually going to be lifting the Ram with it being a 4x4 and I use it to tow my boat.

Yea, and as you can see, when I go down I make it lay frame. LOL Laying a 4X4 on the ground like that is next to impossible. I see a lot of people try to bag four wheel drives and it never looks right.

There's just too much going on up front to lay a 4X4 out like that.

Thanks bro! It was fun! 450hp on 22/20 laying frame definitely turned heads.

Don't care for the Saturn much. But, to each their own.

Yea, I hear ya man. I was 18 when I got that car brand new. It definitely wasn't what everyone else was building, so I kinda liked being unique. I always won my class which was cool. I had a good time with it so I don't regret it even though I wouldn't want one today. I do appreciate anything that people build and put their own blood, sweat and tears in and I credit a lot of that to the reactions I got from owning the Saturn.

Thanks for the welcome!
