    Ram 1500... Done!

    Nice truck. The only time they are "done" is when you sell them!

    New project - Ambulance conversion

    Catching up on the updates: Here's how it looks with no red emergency lights. Found a big Wilderness van roof rack on Craigslist that will fit perfectly if I turn it sideways. I can use it to attach the solar panel rails to. Vinyl flooring is installed and beginning on the molding, galley...

    New project - Ambulance conversion

    This thing has SSSOOOO much wiring! Lots of it was for equipment that had been removed. They just cut the wires and taped them off. It has been a lot of tracing and removal, luckily the wires are all numbered. We also removed the red lights and associated wiring/controllers. The two last pics...

    New project - Ambulance conversion

    We got Unit 621 delivered to the house on rollback. It hadn't run in about 4 years. Did an oil change, charged the battery, put some Marvel Mystery Oil in the cylinders, fresh gas and it fired right up with a little help from some starting fluid. Did a complete tune-up, the front sparkplugs are...

    2013 Ram 1500 Lift Question

    I've got a 2012 with a little over 6" in the front and 4 " in the rear. It's a Fabtech with coil-overs and Tuff Country tubular upper control arms. The ride is good and there's plenty of clearance for the 35's. With right wheel choice and not getting too aggressive with your off-roading you...

    Would you choose Colorado or Oregon?

    I'm a life long Oregon resident and have lived in western and central and eastern Oregon. Unfortunately as M Rose said, the I5 corridor runs the state politically. If you can get past the BS politics and moronic politicians, Oregon is a beautiful state. We have the high desert, mountains...

    What’s the largest group you’ve been with?

    We used to do day outings with 10-12 or more vehicles. While fun it was many times slow and required trail fixes on less than maintained/prepared vehicles. For the most part around 5 vehicles is about right for us. Multi day trips seem to go smoother with about 3 vehicles.

    New project - Ambulance conversion

    With both Jeeps, the Ram and the offroad trailer pretty much finished and recently selling two other 2 vehicles and my motorcycle, it was time to look for a new winter project. We were toying with doing the Sprinter conversion thing but I can't justify what people are getting for a used Sprinter...

    Jeep Wrangler Builds

    Thanks, I love my Jeep. I also have a lifted Ram but the Jeep has become my go to unless we are hauling a bunch of stuff or towing a heavy trailer. I wish I had gotten a JK sooner. The drawer system took me a little over a week in my spare time to build. Here's the build thread if you are...

    Jeep Wrangler Builds

    Nice Jeep. Here's my 2013. I did gusseted axles with 4.56 gears and lockers & 4" lift. We needed room for 2 dogs so here's what I put together to store everything. I built a storage box for the back that we can put a cooler and gear on top of and doubles as a prep area with cutting boards when...
