bstefanic's Build - 2013 2500 - "Wanna Be Wagon"

Post by bstefanic » Fri Dec 16, 2016 12:16 am

***Upfront, if you guys don't want me to continue this thread on here...let me know and I'll delete it...I know not absolutely a PW but this site is bitchin for technical expertise everything Dodge related and will absolutely appreciate the input while I put this together***

As some of you know, currently have my PW up for sale...looking to start a new project, something with a little more seat of the pants kick. Don't get me wrong...pains me to sell my truck, but will be fun to try something new.

So shopping for a 2010-2012 crew cab cummins...no CAD front end is the key

Build plan is long an extensive once I sell the PW...but what I have so far or on order

Thuren King 3.0's stage 6...3 months and counting, not that I have a truck to put them on yet

Nitro 4.56's gears

ARB Front and rear lockers are coming

Got ya. I was following it there too and I didn't see what you were getting at. Carry on.

Now to see how long it takes for this truck to hatch from its egg. I'm betting March!

Jesus I hope not...although the shocks have been on order for 3 months so who knows. Hopefully after Christmas I'll start getting some more bites on my truck.

HA. I had that same fight with myself for two years before I got my PW. But in the end, Rubidoo lost :mrgreen:

Still wish I had that damn Jeep too, though.

Dont forget to add In the winter air for your tires. Better buy a few cans of that. Hate to be caught in the mountains and no winter air.....

Lol. Can't wait to see this thing physically materialize. I'm already picturing 40's...

Lol. Have certainly been kicking around the idea of 40's...especially with availability of cut out flares now instead of fiberglass bed sides. Got a good lead from a local dealership on someplace to buy my truck so hopefully tomorrow I'll be in business
