I can speak to it being true as I have their pintop system with radius arms on my 22 power wagon and I best the snot out of it in the desert of Adelanto CA and parks in Austin TX both! Never had an ounce of trouble and I should have broken a few parts given my antics.

Carli suspension upgrades really helped improve ride quality on my 4th gen. Only complaint is how fast these components rust in the Pacific Northwest Region

I’ve done almost all these things other than a few of the high speed off angle things, slow and fast scenes, in my ‘22 Power Wagon on 37’s running the full Carli Pintop system with Carli radius arms and dual steering stabilizers. The capability is out of this world. I’m also running the Same GFC camper shell with tent. The suspension upgrades, although almost $10k were so worth the money, I’d do it all over again! The installation was so perfectly planned we never once needed even so much as a rubber mallet to move things into place. Carli I’d be happy to drop by and let you record a video hooning my build. Heck I have your name on the side of my truck bed in vinyl!!

The second half is the 6.7 Cummins which is a great engine but does have the fist of the emissions which will be the item that breaks and cost a lot to fix.

I need to bring my 2000 F350 7.3 with the Carli unchained system over sometime for you to take a look at. As you know, it was originally a leaf sprung on a Dana 50. It now has a true F550 Super 60, narrowed with free spin hubs. It also has your long travel airbags and military beadlock wheels. And yes, custom colored shocks too with a Mercenary Offroad bumper. I built it back in 2019. Love your suspension but need to have it tuned at some point. It feels a bit tired.

@CJCOffRoad

No reason to! The 24v makes plenty of power, plus you get the added control of electronic injection and variable timing based on tuning. The 5.9 Common rails are a fantastic platform and work better for this purpose than the mechanical 12v cummins.

🤯 Id just like a ride, lol.

Looks great! Any rear air bag options? 90% of the time I'm empty and not pulling a trailer, but when I do it tends to be heavy.

YES. YES. Everything YES! Dream build for sure. I wish you would have included everything you did to the truck in your parts breakdown. The list seems a little short to me...(kidding!). #dreambuild #takeyourhypercariwilltakethis Thank you for sharing!

Great Build. What are the HP/Torque numbers ??

@CJCOffRoad

10 ай бұрын

It's never been dyno'd but depending on tuning this setup should be somewhere in the 600-650hp range. That said, Dan runs it on the lower side of tuning, since you just end up breaking things when shock loading the whole drivetrain through whoops under power.

This truck needs to be on this vs that. For fucks sake....

Could you or Dan T give any more info about the 14+ power steering pump and custom reservoir setup that is talked about at the 6 min mark in the video? I'm running the 6.7 power steering pump and reservoir on my '07 5.9 with 37's, but always looking for any improvement possible. Thanks

Trying to learn about this stuff: Is it me or are the rear shocks slow on rebound compared to the front? You can see the rear doesn't plant very well in allot of the shots and the jumping slow mo just watch the rear slowly get to full extension. Badass truck!! Trying to find a paint peeling farm beater single cab for this thing:)

@CJCOffRoad

7 ай бұрын

These are rear bypass shocks so you can actually adjust rebound through different areas of the piston stroke. Dan has been messing with the rear a little bit to find the best balance with the camper on the back so you're spot on that the rebound hangs a little especially in the road gap clip. That said, the beauty of bypass shocks is that you have full control by making tube adjustments on top of the base valve.

I would have loved to see the inside of the camper.

I’m curious about how cerakote holds up on the shocks. I’m on the central cal coast and with constant sea air and the crossing at pismo everything. Corrodes really quickly.

@DanTourino

10 ай бұрын

I'm relatively coastal in Orange County, CA. I've now had these shocks for 2 years and they're in perfect shape (short of the sand blasting the rear, forward facing passenger shock has received). I will never own a non-cerakoted King now - they're awesome!

Love it but I have to ask why no skid plates? Weight? I have a f450 and won’t get it in the rocks until it has skid plates.

@CJCOffRoad

9 ай бұрын

Since Dan primarily uses this truck for high speed desert stuff (since that's what we have access to down here) and not low speed rocks like the Rubicon trail, it just didn't make sense to add skid plates when they wouldn't be utilized.

The only Cummins truck where the block will crack before the truck breaks, usually the othe way round where the truck falls apart around the running engine

Gday fellas this 3rd Gen is sick what GVM upgrades can CJC offer for this platform? I’m looking at one now for a diesel mechanic set up here in Australia. Or would I be better off going with a 4th Gen 2500 or 3500?
