Power Wagon Registry

I used Baja cube lights in place of the fog lights. The wide cornering lights are nice.

Pricey, but nice. When I got them they included a mount, cables etc.

There are all sorts of crazy adaptors a good car audio guy will know about that are very hard to find if you are not in the industry or go to one of the big shows where the mfgrs exhibit.

I needed to replace the transfer case in my Avalanche when it got a hole and and all the fluid leaked out, and about 4 solenoids, including the under warranty ones.

Well, if someone is going to have an accident a 2500 is a pretty decent vehicle to be in. On the other hand, it’s a big vehicle that offers opportunity to bang into things because you don’t quite get how wide or long it is.

Nitro and Yukon are who everyone who has done this has said they used. I think Yukon was preferred, but not sure any more. A quick look shows that Nitro at least has 4.8 and 5.3 for the 11.5 diff, but errors ordering are expensive. I understand that it’s also not the kind of install that you should ...

Sounds like you need something a little more reliable! 920c3672acb74a4a23f33f0ac4f6b368x.jpg why settle for an 8 speed when you could have 9? rear locker no disconnecting swaybar to malfunction no front locker to malfunction 9210 towing 1500 cargo super capable this truck will last forever Reliable...

I've been thinking that maybe I should change my user name. I wouldn't want anyone to get the wrong idea and assume that I'm actually associated with the Bureau of Land Management.

Nah, the BLM is run by eco-terrorists. So don’t worry, everything will be fine.

I’ve read that you can use starter batteries to run systems fairly long-term but you have to only discharge them to like 10% to not kill them in short order. But I’ve never tested that. I have had my truck alarm kill starter batteries dead.

Now I have to clean that plug/switch lead. But for now the rope is spooled up and tucked away. Well I forgot to mention to keep tension on the cable or might end up with bird nest, like on a fishing reel. Sounds like it didn't. If it's not the remote or receptacle, then likely culprit in the soleno...

Duracraps hold air fine unless you leave pavement. And why would someone with a powerwagon want to do that?

What do you do with your truck? It's it's off-road mostly then Toyo MTs are great. But they are not best for mileage and on-highway. They are not terrible, but you can certainly do better for less doing mostly highway.

I’m fairly sure this is a terrible idea, but has anyone used spacers to mount surplus hmmwv beadlock wheels to a PW? Did it work? You have my attention. :popcorn: Mil surp hmmwv wheels are 16.5” with a viable bolt pattern. Iirc the hub size is a bit off, but fixable. So there was a guy on youtube w...

Yeah, I was amazed at how much it changed. With stock it was no problem at 30-35 and I think with the 37 toyos on otherwise stock it was fine at 30-35. But either the wheels or the the suspension made it highly inadvisable to run at 30-35 past about 45 mph on pavement. My bet is the suspension, but ...

I think about that, or some crazy expensive Australian stuff. Hope it looks and works great.

I'm in NW Albuquerque, near RR. Sure.

Third party TPMS sensors will work. You might need to clear and clear the rf list to get them to register, which requires a tool or dealer.

I’ve driven around with three sensors and had no problem with other systems. Just annoying idiot lights.

I have King 2.5s and it is more unstable at low pressure and high speed than stock. Running at 25 psi in toyo 37 MTs at 50+ mph stability control kicked in multiple times in a few miles until I slowed down. It's fine at 45-50 psi. Not saying this is what' going on, but maybe?

I misjudged a step on metal masher and dented the bumper, and it shifted the right side of the bumper back and up a bit. I thought it had just shifted and I planned to loosen the mount and shift it back into place. But with the grille off and all the bolts loosened it wouldn't move and looking down ...

Could be worse. You could have found you had about a millimeter less clearance than you needed the expensive way.

But be careful that the door is fully open, particularly when backing up.

I just use rustolium spray to touch them up as needed.

Thuren’s article on the issue with a lot of stabilizer kits is worth reading. Oil froth doesn’t work well, and that is what you get when you lay most shocks on their side. The OEM isn’t bad, so of you are going to change to a 3rd part you need to be sure it won’t be worse.
