Thanks again. The new owner got a screaming deal. Put over $70K into the build but discounted it to account for 3.5-years of depreciation and some wear and tear to around $60K. Dropped the price a little to garner some initial interest which worked nicely. The new owner is a young lieutenant...

Not really a diesel guy although they do have some obvious pros (and cons). Diesel swap on these are extremely expensive (relative to a LS swap), but a lot of guys are getting into them. Having said that, a diesel swap is on my list of potential options as well as a V8. Mine is a '95 with the...

Well, this is the end of the road for me as my Ram has a new owner. I am getting a brand-new company truck and don't need two. So for my four-wheeling adventures, I am going to finish building up my old Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Series. This will not be the last time you'll see me as the new owner...

Thank you...glad you for following along!

@stancedeuros; my apologies as I did not catch your question earlier! I went with Cali Raised Vehicle Accessory 8 Switch Control System (Blue Backlighting).

Updated pics with new lights! ...and a little Moab action thrown in.

And then went to a little place called Moab...

Finally got my full-sized spare tire carrier installed !

@HSKR R/T ...sorry, I didn't see you question earlier! I have brief write up in my build thread if you're interested: Desert Dawg Ram Rebel Build Cheers!

Finally got the Fabtech spare tire carrier mounted in the bed of the Rebel:

Another project completed was the installation of my Rigid Industries ditch lights. I ordred the complete kit with (2) LED pods and wiring harness along with the hood brackets and security kits. Parts included: Rigid Indusrtries Dually-Side Shooter PROfessional Race Output LED pods (DSS PRO...

Fabtech Universal Spare Tire Carrier Finally got around to securing the full-sized +35-inch spare tire carrier in the bed. Having to drill holes (and large ones at that) through the bed of your truck takes some confidence building especially since I wanted to mount the base plate underneath...

Yeah, I really was looking hard at some options but timing is everything. Of course I was only considering top shelf options if I was going to dump the Rebel with all of mods/features I had in it with a focus on off-road capability, so my choices were the current Toyota 4Runner TRD PRO, Bronco...

Oh wow, sorry for the really late reply as I am been away on business travels and long work days and have been remiss in responding! The issue with the Black Rhino wheels in an 18-inch size is making sure the balancing weights clear the brake calipers as some do and some don't. For my vehicle...

Might as well update mine. New BDS Rebel 3-inch Fox 2.5 Performance Elite Suspension and new Mickey Thompson Baja Boss ATs (35.3 inches tall x 12.2 inches wide).

Might as well updated mine too: Congrats on the new truck and welcome to the club! That red looks quite nice on the Rebel...good looking truck!

Yeah, I like all of those except that the SDHQ cage is not removable and the n-Fab and SDHQ strap down carriers mount the tire nice and flat but the strap brackets stick up and will get in the way when I want to fully use the bed. I couldn't get a hold of 454 Motorsports for their totally...

I didn't catch that it was removable, which is great; you'd think they would highlight that! I did see it adds 200 lbs of extra weight plus the tire/wheel weight which could send the whole assembly north of 300 lbs over the back bumper...that's quite a bit of extra weight for sure! But if...

I did look at that bumper! It's a sweet setup but I determined that since I am constantly accessing my truck bed, it would limit my ability to haul things with the tailgate down as well as being kind of annoying to have to keep moving it aside to access under the topper (especially when in the...
