2017 Ram Laramie conversion to TRX Concept (in progress)

[ram_running_trx]

Hey all - I wish I had a new TRX like most members on here, but here is my current setup. 2017 Ram Laramie with Rebel front end conversion, Advanced Fiberglass Concepts TRX kit, Dirt King front and rear long travel suspension, Whipple Supercharger (HEMI Orange of course), Vision X spot lights, Ultra 103 beadlocks...and I'm sure I'm forgetting other things. Happy to be here!

Dude, that's an awesome job on the conversation. So have you dynoed it yet?

Thanks! No dyno yet. Forgot to mention I had it Tuned by Jay Greene also. She screams!

Great build! From the parts list sounds like it was built right! Should be a ton of fun on and off road! Any engine internals work to handle the boost better?

Not yet! It's only pushing 7lbs; pushing my limit before upgrading!

I forgot to mention I get all my Redline Oil and Royal Purple filters from Nick@GotExhaust!

I am sure Jay Greene mentioned it but I would stay low boost until you beef up the internals.

Did you do long tube headers on that yet?

Now that is bad ass !

I tapped the brakes on the RAM to start building the Ranger...then we bought a 140 year old farmhouse so adding is momentarily halted. I am going to pick up a bed cage in the coming weeks so I can add 16" coilovers in the rear.

[Trailmaker]

Yes, I would like one of those under the tree please.

 

[Trailmaker]

There you are my friend

Did you use the hood scoop for function?

Nice! Time for a brake upgrade

 

[HandyCruiser]

Wow! That is outstanding. You should do a cost breakdown. I'd like to see how much it would cost to build something like that.

Great job on the truck looks awesome

Dude this is great work. You should throw up a YouTube video of cold start, some revs, maybe some driving! I love seeing folks buy a "cheaper" truck and making it just as capable lol

Totally agree with you on that statement.. This truck is an inspiration to lots of us gear heads. This is where I want to go with my Ram but yet still keep it capable to do every day things.
