Power Wagon Registry

Well my name is Jeff and I live in Goliad, Texas. My 05 PW has 150,000 miles and is in need of upgrades. Just ordered a set of Dynatrac ball joints, RCV shafts, and Spyntec free spin kit. Serious chunk of cash missing from my bank account. Can't wait to see my new parts arrive. I'm going to order a new power steering gear box and hydro assist with linkage upgrade next month. Also need to order front and rear diff covers. Trying to get it ready for a Moab trip early next summer or spring. Hope to meet some of you guys soon!

I have been wheeling for years my rockcrawlers but am tired of hauling rigs around. Gonna make the PW into a dual purpose rig. Can't wait to watch this transformation. It only cost $$$$$$$!! here is a muddy pic of my truck!

Somewhat of a clean pic of my truck.

I bet it took a while to get all the mud off!

Sure did I think there is still some under there lol. Look what came in the mail today!! I'm just waiting to get my Dynatrac ball joints.

Was a pain to wash. Sure there is still mud in some places.

Lol. I only took mine in mud bad once and I bet it took six washes and months before it stopped running out of cracks!

I got the dynatrac ball joints in today so the next 2 days will be installing all my parts.

Well pressed in my wheel studs and bearing races this evening. Hopefully I will have time to install the Dynatrac ball Joints tomorrow.

Will start putting it together tomorrow and Monday.

Got the ball joints installed today and half of the free spin done. Will finish the rest up tomorrow hopefully.

RCV shafts installed!!!

Got it back together!

Damn, that looks great!

Good, you got it done. Time to enjoy.

That DOES look good !!! Kinda like gold teeth----only MUCH better !!! LOL

Big pimping lol! No was gonna paint it but decided to test run first and wait until I buy my new rims and paint them. The hubs are SOLID wow!! They are a little hard to turn though.

Well gonna call Dodge Offroad tomorrow once I get paid and order my steering gear box with hydro assist, shaft, joint, brace, etc. that way when I get off of work in 2 weeks I will have something to do. This Power Wagon is costing me a ton of cash. Damn!!

Sent email and left 2 voice mails with Dodge Offroad hopefully he calls me back soon so I can get some more parts for the Power Wagon.

Looks great man, Lots done to all the right places.. Cheers!!!!

Well I talked to Dodge Offroad and ordered my Power Steering Gearbox with hydro assist and new shaft. Also ordered front and rear diff covers. I am pretty much broke now. Dumped a ton of cash into this thing in the last 3 months. I could have bought another truck lol. Never gonna sell this truck. It will be my daily driver and wheeler for at least another year or so. So anything that breaks will get upgraded for hard core wheeling. Eventually it will be turned into a truggy in 2 or 3 years. But for now I drive it like I stole it. Gotta build bumpers next. Then I will done for a while. Sold my buggy to finance this build so far. Still have my Suzuki sidekick crawler until I'm ready to go all out on the Power Wagon.

Nice. You will enjoy the PSC hydro set up. Just dont mount it low, I mounted my ram high near the pitman arm off the frame, running the Thuren Steering kit. Ballzzz tough, and up out of the rocks. I will post pics of my design today.

I sold my Tube chassis buggy to build my Dodge. So I feel your pain, but in the end, it was WAY worth it.. AND still have about 10k left over from selling my tube chassis after building this dodge.

So kinda a win-win..

$$$$$$$ Must be nice ! LOL I am hoping i DON'T have to replace anything else until after i retire, so i can get my bills paid off first. Then i am hoping for some mod $$$$.

Yeah like to see some pics of your setup. Thanks.
