Long time reader, newbie to the forum

Post by SpeedracerPW » Fri Feb 01, 2019 10:51 am

Hey all,

I finally created a profile for this forum after a year of reading many discussions on this site. I have a 2017 with only a bed mounted hi lift jack and a tonneau cover although I recently ordered the Dethloff engine/trans skid plate (DamageWagon, thank you for taking my call and answering all the questions I had). My plan is to add protection first (White Knuckle and Purple Cranium) then address the suspension with Thuren equipment.

The past year and half with the power wagon has been fantastic as I have enjoyed exploring the back country and pushing the limits of it in stock form. I'm still amazed how good it is even in stock form. My previous truck was an 03 2500 CTD with a Kore suspension which brought me great joy but quickly found its limitations as my exploring became more intense.

I look forward to the knowledge and friendly banter on this site.
