Re: 2005 Power Wagon hand me down or keep it as my own?

Must have been due to my dual exhaust setup. Memory is foggy.

Interco Super Swamper SSR has that size if you go mud bogging. Full 35.3 inches tall.

I couldn't fit MT 35's as a spare when I tried it. Didn't fit between frame rails.

Re: 3G snorkel

Thanks, for fixing the link to your build. It's nice to see what others experienced and not have surprises when I do go to start the install. My Wagon is my daily driver until I get my beater working, so It may be awhile before I start drilling. I bought the hole saw, mastic, and zinc primer already.

Re: 2008 PW 285/75/17 VS 35/12.5/17

I'm running stock height and stock PW wheels. I tried some 305/70-17 Goodyear's that were about the same height as 285/75. 34"tall. It was probably my favorite size that I have tried, but they don't make a decent tire/brand in that size anymore. Didn't seem to have any negative other than a slight l...

Re: 3G snorkel

Ordered one from Rocky Road Outfitters today Jan.2023. Will see if they can still get them.
I hit a big puddle of water at speed, at night, in a rainstorm. Splashed big time up on the hood. Glad it didn't hydro-lock.

Re: Fire Extinguisher

Mule inspired me a few months ago to install one. This is a 2.5 lb halotron from H3R Performance. I was going to install a dry chemical on the passenger side but lost interest due to the PITA install.
Yeah my floor is dirty so what? Yes that is yellow Labrador hair, it's everywhere.

Re: Factor 55 ultra hook

I got their flatlink multimount. Keep it in the center console when not in use. bought 4 Crosby 3/4" shackles and some tree-saver straps.
I don't use the factory Hook anymore.

Re: Help. My power wagon doesn’t always start

Sell the truck, or trade it in, and buy a new one from a different dealer. Seriously, you got a lemon (No pun intended) that may have been root cause of something dealer had a hand in.

Re: Improving fuel mileage

IDK about the newer Power Wagons, mine has been 10MPG combined hwy/cty since it was new. The Free spin kit didn't do anything except about 1mpg increase on the highway, with a tailwind. Parking it for extended periods of time is the best method.

Looks like it is built like a brick house. They definitely have taken some ideas from Leitner designs.
Custom built. You pay extra for that.

Re: Price for Toyo 35" MT's

Those Toyo's are heavy at 75Lbs. I will never buy a tire that heavy for my PW. When I increased diameter to near 35" tall, I tried LT315-70-17 Firestones which were 67Lbs, compared to flotation size 35-12.5-17 at 74Lbs, and only 0.4" smaller diameter. At that time I was going from LT305 Goodyear's t...

Thanks for reposting. By the total numbers, you can see how the 2008 stock market crash affected buying a 10mpg truck for years.
