Nice build! I'm curious about the crossmember mod for the driveline clearance. Did you just cut it out more?
The shop heated it up and bent it down, there wouldn't have been anything left if we cut. Still some clearance issues on the front track bar (full droop) that I am less concerned about. Only real fix on that would be limit straps vs cutting according to the shop I had it at.

Very nice build I'm also thinking about the RSI cap and decked system. Looks great!

I'm curious what model number is your RSI SmartCap EVOa Adventure? I didn't think they made one for the ram yet?

This is a really nice set up, I gotta look into the cross member mod, I’m assuming not running a spare? Everything looks really good.

Still rocking the factory spare, need to figure out a solution as I will be sleeping in the bed until I get my RTT in. I have considered seeing if a deflated 35 would fit in the spare location.

From what I am being told this is one of the first for purchase EVOa Adventure Caps in the US, I was #2 on the list

Nice build so far. What was your reason for going with the Power Tank setup over a compressor setup? I've ran C02 setups for my rock crawling Jeeps since they air up much quicker, but for my overlanding builds they did not work out to well since I was airing up and down multiple times while out on a trip.

Beautiful truck man! 2 questions:

- How did you land on the Wildeaks as the go-to tire?
- Are the Saltas in the Onyx color or black? I'm going to get a set when my PW gets delivered and debating between the Onyx vs. traditional black?
