How's it goin' y'all?

My names Mike, I'm from a rural small town in New Hampshire.

Somehow I missed this thread and made my first post in the stickied picture thread

I picked up my Power Wagon about 2 months ago, found her at a dealership in Georgia and had it shipped up. ~84,000 miles, rust-free, brand new Mastercraft Courser AXT 35's, just about fully-loaded.
It even has black racing stripes, which, of course, are good for +50 horsepower

Hello all! I am a new Power Wagon owner and the gentlemen I bought my PW from is a member here and told me about this site. His name is JBeck, what an upstanding guy he is. Gave me an awesome deal on an immaculate 2009 Laramie PW. I am looking forward to learning from this site and posting up my adventures. I am super excited to have this truck, thanks for having me!

JBeck did some nice mods to it aswell

Carli ball joints
Thuren track bar
Icon control arms
Catch can mod
Centramatic wheel balancers
Diablo sport tuner
35" Nitto Trail Grapples
Bed liner

Here are the pics

Just joined up today. Going to be buying my first pw tomorrow,can't wait. I would of posted a few pictures but haven't figured out how yet. Not sure on what kind of mods im gonna start with,probably just gonna smash it around till i find something i don't like about it. I also work at a dodge dealership as a tech so if you guys have any weird problems you need help with or wiring diagrams hit me up. Hey nova prospekt where in NH you live? Im up in berlin. My buddy just bought an 08 up here too and once I get mine we are gonna do a little wheeling around to see what they can do,maybe get a few pics along the way.

Yeah, how about determining for us which wire (if there is such a wire, like the Jeep JK's have) that can be cut to completely disable all of the traction control nannies and ABS. Then we can install a switch, so it can easily be turned on and off when our heart desires.

Welcome aboard! What PW did you go with, Tradesman, SLT or Laramie?

So I did a little research and I think I found what you are looking for. I couldn't get the image to upload so I'm going to try and explain it so bear with me. I looked up a 2010 ram 2500,should be the same. At the tipm(totally integrated power module) you have to find the C6 connector,it should be a grey connector and its located under the hood. Once you find the connector you are going to want to splice into pin 16 which is a tan with red stripe wire and pin 32 which is a dark green with red stripe wire. Those are the two power wires that run to the abs module. If that doesn't match let me know what year truck you have and I can look again. I got an slt. Can't wait to be driving it. I think I got a good deal on it but I couldn't find any others to compare it to. KBB and NADA both put it between 12,000-18,000. It got traded in at my dealership so I got it for what they had into it,9,500. It needs about 500 bucks in parts but labor is free because they let me work on it after hours. Opinions?

Well, I have had my truck for over a year now. Forgot I made an account here and just recently found it again. Just a few mods since I picked it up. Dynatrac ball joints, Carli control arms and track bar, and some super hard to dial in properly Rancho shocks and a Factor 55 thimble. This is the day I picked it up. Had 16,000 ish miles on it and still had the winch cable zip-tied up to the drum.

You found a creampuff for sure! Nice truck.

[awdanthony]

Yeah, unfortunately the previous owner never rotated the tires so they got flat across them and killed my ball joints pretty quickly. I love this truck though, and I will most likely never sell it, except for maybe another newer Power Wagon. SOMEHOW, he managed to get the windshield tinted to like 40%.

I picked up my new to me '07 SLT last week from a dealer. Traded my '12 halfton, but I have wanted a PW since I was a kid. Our kids are grown, so no longer need a backseat, so this regular cab is perfect. 79000 miles, 1 owner, doesn't seem to have any offroad use at all. That will change quickly...

[Vee]

Double post

[Vee]

Yep, sorry, double post.

[CMOORE]

Welp, I joined a smidge before I picked mine up... I kinda lurked and researched to make sure I made a proper decision. So here is my 2016 PW Laramie

You all are really damn good at presenting information , much appreciated for sure !!

Awesome looking truck! What colour is that?

Hello from Salisbury on Maryland's Eastern Shore.
I just traded my 2014 Ram 1500 Sport, for a new 2016 Power Wagon SLT, at Farrish CJDR, in Fairfax, VA.
So far, I have only driven around 300 miles and I really like this truck.
