Power Wagon Registry

Hold on a minute....I found a link to https://www.fleetequipmentmag.com/cummi ... est-drive/ on Pirate 4x4. Could we be getting this and a big part of the delay? They keep mentioning testing cooling systems on the HDs for the delay. 660lb feet of torque! Take my MONEY!

Stellantis is clearly in full melt down mode unfortunately. But I am needed to replace my 2018 as it approaches 200K especially as the engine continues to fall apart after numerous exhaust manifold repairs and now a failing lifter can be heard. This roll out of one at Sema with an ugly grill, nerf b...

The problem is these transmissions are vats of lead. There are tons of parts that need upgraded, especially the torque convertor.

I had PHP errors for years and was just able to get around those error messages by trial and error. Just happened again, had to pull up full editor then try reposting [phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions_messenger.php on line 506: count(): Parameter must be an array or an obj...

Interesting I had to do some weird stuff to get away from the errors, select full editor. Now it works regular after? Wow crazy

Been awhile since I posted as it was not letting me post for a long time. Lets see how it goes. Yes, thats a 60K CVT reliable transmission sadly. 2019 saw the introduction of a real transmission finally. You can rebuild the clunker with better parts that should last. Not a good transmission, but it ...

Comparing apples to apples. My 2005 Titan had some issues IN 225K. But certainly no Transmission rebuilds or engine issues. Its not that Toyotas and Nissans do not have issues. I am just surprised the Ram has 10X the issues after supposed years of improvements. From recalls to small things like the ...

As I am over 100K now, which would be break in time for a Japanese truck and my 2018 Power Wagon has been extremely un-reliable. From electrical glitches to transmission rebuild already. ( started failure at 63K) The stark difference in reliability after owning Japanese all my life is truly astonish...

What do you think will happen with the next big Power Wagon update and when? At my mileage rate I will be ready in a few years! My wish list; 1. Front Locker that works with out mods 2. Sway Bar Disconnect that works (make it water proof) 3. Shock Upgrade 4. 35s 5. Standard sliders 6. Complete Skids...

Just plug in a wireless remote unit instead. Go ahead, thank me after you use it a few times.

Well, my Sway Bar Disconnect never worked once because its not water proof. And I had to install a bi-pass for the front locker to function. Not sure how much worse this could be.

These stock batteries are amazing. Other vehicles I have had barely got 1.5-2 years out of the shitty stock batteries. Yeah - I'm keeping the Stock Mopar battery in my garage for now - it never failed to start the truck! :rockon: Mopar Battery.jpg On my 2005 Nissan Titan it leaked and melted everyt...

1. So what I have so far was 12K on the Duratrash and dozens of flat tires, and one destroyed tire, and crazy cupping. Good traction 2. 39K on BFG MT set, which I waited too long to rotate and had some bad cupping. The best by far for traction. 3. I am at 26K on the Nittos, rotated once and no signi...

So you guys keep them parked all the time? 2018 with 79,000 miles

Quick question, is the smart bar supposed to allow disengagement in 2wd? I disconnected the plug to it and looked inside to be sure it wasn't corroded and it wasn't. The rubber seal was in good shape and intact. It gives me the dumb flashing light randomly like it's trying to disengage and the 4x4 ...

Silly these trucks do not have a step system standard. I added the kicked down one.

My cab lights were replaced with out me even asking on a recall visit. Sun Roof leaked in a car wash once.....Ok, so I might have left it open on vent. Really, surprised it did not leak more honestly.

you can go to the ford forum and see the joints on them new trucks are failing with less than 30k mi of just highway miles. hell my corrolla was at nearly 200k with perfectly tight original joints and it traveled the same highways 235K on my Nissan Titan and never replaced them. Probably needed the...

That is an insanely long list of high failure parts. I know folks here don't like it when I say it, but things like terrible transmissions has held them back for decades. Watched a test video yesterday of a brand new PW on an articulation ramp and as usual Sway Bar Disconnect was non-functional (min...

Without question, 2005 is the best year. Why I haven't had to put more than a new battery in it in 15 years. Might need some tires here soon though...

15 years on a set of tires Must not be Duratrash!

I went with 92' of 15K Smitty Built line. Warn line was crazy ridiculous. Should have ordered it sooner but thought I could sneak by for awhile. The shoe string broke and cable spun on drum again when I went to clear up a hill side pile up the other day. Did you guys that upgraded to synthetic switc...

Exactly, on most 4x4s there is a big delay when a locker locks normally, and they can be finicky given drive-train stresses and such. Or building up air say. But the Power Wagon lockers are click and go, no fuss no muss. But they have a long time design flaw preventing that operation until you over ...

Just get the Warn remote that works, and be done with it.
