What have you broken while wheeling and how

[4xdad]

EMF ball joints in the spring it will be a good road trip they’re only a couple hours away

 

[4xdad]

Build for bulletproof

I have broken pretty much every OEM front end parts off-roading.

Rams are built for housewife's to go grocery shopping. Thank goodness for aftermarket !

If the missus is with me no dumb s$&@ but she is not always with me if she is with me and we are camping I don’t want s$&@ breaking and having to walk home this is probably the last truck I will buy so I am building it the way I want

 

[crazy jerry]

if you said you wanted rcv's and dynatracs and emf joints just for the hell of it ,who could argue with that. but when you said you wanted them because you might break the stock parts i knew you was out of touch with reality and wasnt mechanically familiar with these trucks

Been a bit since i followed your build, but i dont remember seeing you shortening the frame and wheel base…damn

 

[4xdad]

This my daily driver I don’t want to leave it broke in the bush and walking home if you try hard enough you can break it adding more weight bigger tires and a heavy foot stuff breaks and it’s only money I’ll get more

 

[4xdad]

Can you build it to strong I don’t think so

 

[4xdad]

I would rather spend time and money on improvements rather than repairs

 

[Udy2554]

One trip thru the woods! Peeled the tire off the wheel! Big rocks are buried in the mud!

 

[4xdad]

I did the same thing on my old Chevy to nice jimmy what I really ment was stuff broken on pws though so as to find any weaknesses

your truck looks stock with a topper for carrying groceries in the rain.
im baffled how you think something would break when 22hemi crashes his on rocks and jumps it with factory parts.
good skidplates ,strong crossmembers and diff covers would serve you much better

 

[4xdad]

Check my thread my homemade rock sliders it includes the skids I made you are right it’s a grocery bag for the most part but I want it to be tough when I need it my new job hopefully will allow more time for camping road trips I want to build for bulletproof I am 60 years old I don’t want to walk home I would rather spend money on parts to make my truck tougher than dragging it out of the bush not that I wheel hard but I don’t want to walk

 

[4xdad]

Also I built a tire carrier check it out

 

[4xdad]

I also learned when I was younger if you jump it it will break especially a big truck like a pw

 

[4xdad]

I would love to hear about anything that has broken when you use it hard fix it before it is a problem
