I ended up having to sell my K30 project due to an over abundance of ideas and an under abundance of time so, that leaves me with my DD/ trail rig 2012 Power Wagon. I bought it fresh off the truck delivering it to the dealer in January 2013 (was built 12/12 but is a 2012 instead of the usual model year which would put it at 2013 (traded a 2013 Tacoma I had for a month in on it!)), had it on the trail for the first time 3 days later with just over 100 miles on it for an iced over volunteer trail maintenance day at Uwharrie National Forest. Has been a great rig so far! (somewhere around 66k miles on it now)
Specs:
2012 Power Wagon so:
rebadged reverse rotation 15K Warn winch (badged as a 12K)
lots more skid plates than regular 2500
4.56 gears and electronic locking differentials front and rear (rear is limited slip when not locked) (AAM 9.25 and 10.5)
front electronic swaybar disconnect
(33" tires and 1.5" lift over regular 2500 are stock)
added:
3" (1.5" for Power Wagon) Carli lift with 2.5" remote reservoir stainless steel shafted King shocks, MIG/mild control arms, fabricated towers, new front coils and rear springs, Carli trackbar (soon to be a Gen II Carli trackbar), and Thuren rear shackles
37" Nitto Trail Grapplers on stock wheels
AEV snorkel (already hydrolocked the engine once and luckily didn't ruin it, considered that a warning and got a snorkel)
Factor 55 Flatlink E
2.5x4x.250 rock sliders with White Knuckle Offroad's brackets (wanted to run a larger main tube than what they provide so, bought just the brackets)
LOTS of dents, DOH!!!
(hopefully) soon to come (have all the parts, need to put them on):
Viair 444C compressor and tank OBA system
auxiliary front and rear lighting and rock lights
SPOD
rear Warn VR12,000
kickouts on the rocksliders
something in the way of custom bumpers (I have the materials and the tools, just need the time)
