Power Wagon Registry

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.

Yeah, it is the roofing stuff, and it sucks, it spreads up your arms like anti-seize Here is a link with a repost from my install. I think it is still on this forum as well but I couldn't find it so the link is to American Adventurist. https://americanadventurist.com/forum/threads/blkwgn-a-power-wa...

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...

Received my snorkel yesterday. It was drop-shipped from a "distributor" named: Automotive Customizers/4x4parts.com 1700 NW 22nd CT Pompano Beach, FL 33069 https://www.4x4parts.com/c-1180036-airflow-snorkels-dodge.html (same listed price as Rocky Road Outfitters) I posted this just in case Rocky Road...

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.

6-speed is a rare breed in 3G Power Wagons. I couldn't find one in 2006.

Thanks for posting!

Me no likey

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.

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.

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.

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.

Those things weigh a ton. I would keep it in the garage unless i was Wheeling. Save on gas.

87k miles and never touched my PS fluid. Only check the level.

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.

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...

I've run these on front and rear in slush snow/ice. Don't need chains when the snow gets deep. My Firestone M/T2's work great in snow. Diamond tire chain: https://www.tirechain.com/Truck-Tire-Chains.HTM They are lowest clearance chain-type chains I've found. Only cable chains can be found with more ...

This is why I never buy a vehicle with a sun/moon roof. It usually hurts your theft insurance rate too.

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

I don't see any charts...

I would like to see a new thread on the combined locker/smart bar bypass for 3G PW.

Best year(s) is the early 3G Power Wagon, 2006-2008. 2005 was the prototype with all the teething problems. -06 to 08 were Heavy Duty. Cast iron engine blocks and NO MDS system.
Power Wagon design went downhill after DaimlerChrysler sold itself off to Fiat in the Obama economy.

I ordered a Maple Offroad 3 bar skid plate replacement $$$. That should show I have serious interest in wanting tranny protection for early 3G Power Wagon.
