Took the Wagon up an RTI ramp!!!

If it's about Power Wagons, all generations, this is where it'll go. This is the original PWR Forum Power Wagon Technical Discussion Section. And this includes everything that doesn’t fit in any one of the other categories related to the truck goes here!

Took the Wagon up an RTI ramp!!!

Post by RAM4ROKS » Sun Sep 01, 2013 8:05 pm

Took it up a thirty degree ramp, and I tell you, this truck flexes like crazy!!! (sorry in advance for the bad quality of the pics, it was night time and I took them with my cell phone) Anyways, here we go:

Full droop:
Image

Full stuff! (37s are gonna be a tight fit, I bet!!! There's not a lot of space when at full bump!):
Image

Looks to be full rear droop (might be able to get more if the stock shocks and shackles were longer):
Image

Side shot (sorry my buddy is in the way, to give an idea of the amount of flex, he is 6'3"):
Image

Opposite side shot:

You could figure it out probably since the wheel base and body lengths are known values.

Damn that's a lot of travel. I'd like to get mine on a ramp sometime.

Don't know about 4G, but a stock 3G RTI is 655 on a 20 degree ramp.

Nice! My 35" tires rub the front of my bed pretty bad at full stuff! All stock suspension so far.

Great flex!!!! Cool shots! No Hi-jack, that's good stuff! Gotta say, I LOVE your choice in wheels there!!!! :drool:

I'd like to see a thread on those rotating bits of awesomeness, if you've got one! (and if you wouldn't mind posting up a link) I think 05PWrockcrawler and I both have a litany of questions for you!!!!

Oddly, your pics show up right side up on my phone but upside down on my laptop!
