37" NITTO Trail Grappler Tires on a Ram 1500 Road and Trail TEST
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 мар 2021
- This time on AutoEdits we test out the new 37" Nitto Trail Grappler M/T off road tires on Ram Johnson... the 2009 Ram Truck 1500 HEMI.
Hop on board as I explain how I chose these as the next set of tires for the Ram Adventure Truck project and put them to the test on a twisty canyon road, some freeway miles, and finally... off road!
One of the main reasons I like these is that they offer a major durability factor for most of us that use our rigs off road... and are comfortable for all of the everyday stuff like city and freeway driving. Plus these are strong enough to tow with... major benefit to folks that haul stuff to the trails as well.
www.nittotire.com/light-truck...
As a quick reference... the tire pressures I'm running around town and on the highway are 30 PSI cold and they end up at about 34/35 as they heat up on the highway. Believe it or not... that is where I get the best fuel mileage as well (in my Jeep I get best MPG's at 28 cold PSI). So all that canyon carving in this video is at that pressure to give you a reference... plus they are very comfortable.
The air down pressure I ran in this video was 12 psi and as you will see... these tires offered TONS of grip and sidewall flex.
I'm extremely happy with the Trail Grapple M/T's so far and stay tuned for the continued adventures with this truck... I'm thinking rear locker next???
Please go to the AutoEdits Amazon store and take a look around to see if anything strikes your fancy... anything you purchase from there helps a little since I don't do patreon or any of that stuff.
I can honestly recommend picking up a couple of those Grease Monkey "Bones" Gloves... I have them in every vehicle now and use them in the garage everyday!

Love seeing the Ram back. You're the reason why I'm fixing up my 2010 Ram 1500 instead of buying new. Awesome content, keep it up!
Thanks! Will do!
I got a 2004 hemi 5.7 any recommendations it runs amazing 155k miles stock 4x4
Same here. Lots of goodies on my 2015 Laramie. The Tahoe is cool but the Ram was my inspiration for upgrading to really go off-road.
So great to see some Ram content - absolutely love this truck! New tires seem to work great and definitely slung up an adequate amount of gravel for a killer thumbnail! 😁 Your videography always makes the videos so enjoyable, thanks Jason!
I broke a gopro getting these shots and it was worth it. It's my computer and phone background now!
@@AutoEdits Dang! That sucks but I guess it's the price to pay sometimes 😬... I'm thinking of getting a used Ram this year, it would be my first truck after a solid run of Subaru's. Your truck has a lot of great features that make me excited! Always look forward to new content on it - all the best from Ontario Canada 👍
My favorite RUclips channel. I started watching you right after buying my jk 4 years ago. Since then i’ve started following every other jeep RUclips channel but... I’m still here !
I'm very happy to hear this... thank you!
Love when this truck shows up on the tube.
Can’t wait to see the locker install 🤙🏻
You and me both!
Love the Ram videos man. Thanks for all the info I’m running toyos on mine but awesome!
Love that truck! Knew this would be a good video and I wasn't disappointed.
Thanks dude!
Dude you've done an amazing job on that truck. You're a really good mechanic. Awesome videos.
Wow, thanks!
Looks like Nitto has been killing it lately. Seen lots off good reviews for their tires and this is another one of them. Keep on Keep'n on!
I've been legit stalking them from 2 years ago out at King of the Hammers and it was time. They offer me the confidence/toughness of the Maxxis Razr but the all round performance of the Wildpeak and other than the BFG red white and blue lettering... have a my favorite side wall. So far I'm very happy.
Love my G2s
"Cool, we just did science!" I love it! Awesome vid. Love this channel!
Glad you enjoy it! I legitimately have a good time out there and just try to bring you along!
finally someone who actually airs down their tires to the point you can see they are aired down haha!
I ran the low pressures at 12 psi for this video. It's a heavy truck for a half ton...lol
@@AutoEdits I run 10-12 in my Jeep and 18-20 in my power wagon. That seems to be the sweet spot! Great video man!!
beadlocks... I run zero PSI in my ram...
Love the Ram videos, keep them coming!!
I'll work on that!
Listen to the tires “growl”. Love it. 🤟
It was such a happy little sound...lol
I agree that looks matter. I have the Ridge Grapplers and cannot be happier!
I almost went with those!!! I too like them a lot. Just thought I needed to go for maximum traction for this project.
Nice review of these Nitto tires, I'll have to consider them when tire time comes. I too like to throw my truck around twisty roads, it's oddly satisfying. Keep these fun videos coming.
Thanks dude! Let me ask you this... do you think I can make my Tahoe do dirt roads as good as this truck??? Would be a game changer for sure.
@@AutoEditsSure you can. You were planning to turning it into an overland camper, then it's a must They're both about the same size and weight, plenty of after market parts. You may be little down on power if you got one with 305 (that's 5.0 Liter for the youngens) Hey, put Pinto on next video.
Always enjoy the videos. I got the milstar patagonias because of your review on the Jeep. Probably will upgrade to these soon
I'm going to stick with the Patagonias on the Jeep for a while... might even try the "black labels" next!
Yes! A locker will be great. Looking forward to it!
Coming soon!
@@AutoEdits hey one more thing, did you make a video on the rubicon transfer case? I can’t find it anywhere.
Yes finally!! My favorite looking ram!
She's a beaut!
I love this truck! Please do more videos with it!
I'll try! I love this truck.
The truck has such a good stance and look 10/10 that bumper is rad too
Agree 100% on this...lol!
I'm looking forward to seeing the video of you installing the locking differential. :)
You and me both!
another well rounded and informative video. Keep up the great videos Jason! Hi to Pinto please
Thanks! Will do!
@3:29 the exhaust notes are lovely Jason.
That truck does sound rowdy!
Glad to see you're still doing stuff with your RAM. Thanks for the review of the M/Ts. I actually have the Ridge Grappler 35s on mine.
I almost went for the RG’s and then thought about how awful I am to this thing and needed maximum effort.
@@AutoEdits you do "work" the hell out of RAM Johnson. I just did a BDS 4" lift with Fox shocks. Couldn't take mine up to your level since I still park in my garage! Keep up the reviews and tutorials!
There isn't much lift on this thing... maybe 2" in front and none in the rear... or whatever the TRX springs offer.
Same trie setup on my JK love nitto M/Ts. Forever my go to tire! I will say once you start getting into the lower 40% tire life, you'll start to hear more road noise
I believe that... but also remember this Ram has Flowmaster Outlaw exhaust... it's freakin loud...LOL
Japanese based company owned by Japanese based Toyo making tires in the USA. Nice, better than US based companies making tires elsewhere. Awesome performance based o your review, they look awesome too, maybe my next set to replace my Duratracs on my Rebel.
I'm not sure it's necessarily better but encouraging domestic manufacturing is a good thing. More jobs supplied by the manufacturing process than a corporate office.
Had these in 33” size on my JKU. Awesome tires!
Right on!
The freeway noise was what I was waiting for! Thats pretty quiet for such large footprint
They are all around amazing... plus I'm getting better gas mileage than my previous tires.
So sad. I went off my tire size and bought mine..... took it in and the guy looks at me and said I needed to lift the front...lmfao. oh well
I still love that truck and all the work u put in it. I would have a hard time with picking this or the Jeep if I had both haha
You and me both!
I switched from the MT’s to the ridge grapplers and couldn’t be happier. They’re the quietest tires I have ever owned. They have great snow and ice traction and just work in mud and sand.
I was going to try the ridge grapplers first but they have been backordered for months! Really glad to have these though... don't think I'd want to go any other way.
I’ve got the ridge grapplers too. They do good in the snow and on ice, but they’re not nearly as good as the BFG KO2’s I had on my truck before the Nittos. After these wear out I’ll either go back to the KO2’s or try the Wildpeak AT’s. I’ve hear those two perform similarly, but the Falcons are less expensive.
That front bumper looks amazing
It's a defining feature of the rig for sure.
Those tires are amazing however I love my Faulken that came on my rubicon
Ram Johnson... best name in the biz.
Thanks! It makes me smile every time I say it!
Damnit. Now you have me contemplating getting these vs another set of YOKOHAMA Geolanders. Thanks for the content Jason.
Sorry not Sorry... LOL! I'm just here to share the experience and help show off different stuff I'm trying out!
Geolandars look more aggressive and weight less I believe
They may look better to you but those aren’t even in the top 5 for me and weight doesn’t mean anything in a tow rated tire. My super lightweight milestars handle awesome because they are the lightest in the group but not rated to tow like these things.
@@AutoEdits hey, you didn’t have to apologize to... it’s my wife that you need too after all your recommendations 🤣. Jk
I always appreciate your passion and honest opinion. Keep it up 🤙
@@adamseaman7306 HA!
Great video buddy , i love my 40inch nitto trail grapplers
Same here! Glad to be in the club... now about switching this truck to 40's....
@@AutoEdits gotta get a set for the jeep as well 😉
Thinking about it for sure!
Man what a build! Makes me wish my Ram 1500 was a 4wd!!
Slap a Jeep rubicon transfer case on there and you're good to go... lol
@@AutoEdits j ttjgrrr
P p
I put Nitto Mud Grapplers on my '05 H2 and it looked killer. Just couldn't handle the roar down the road. Next set was the Trails and loved them.
They look like they would make a racket on the freeway...lol
Love my Nitto TG's!
ME TOO!
Jason, when I installed my 37" Trail Grapplers several years ago I didn't balance them. They rode smoother than any tire I'd ever run on my Jeep before. They were so perfectly round and balanced that I never got them professionally balanced....and that was with heavy 17" Poison Spyder beadlocks and no balance beads, either! I wanted them when I stepped up to 40s, but they were out of stock everywhere. :(
Interesting to hear... I've been pleased so far. What 40's did you end up with?
I have been wanting to put a locker in my 2015 RAM 1500! Didn’t know there was an option! Looking forward to it!
I hope to share something cool with you soon!
I too have a '15 Ram 1500 4x4. They now make a Detroit Tru-Trac for the rear end, but its still a limited slip. Can't wait to see what you come up with, Jason.
Jason wow you got a lot of miles out of the Falcons. I know you did at least one Baja Trip and then some with the Falcons. It will not be to long before my 1500 needs new sneakers. So will be highly interested to see how the Nittos work out on wear. Btw does Hungry Valley bring back memories. I grew up in Northridge and Woodland Hills. Back in the day there was no dedicated park. Just go anywhere Frasier, Gorman and so on. One time when out in Mojave Cyn we started at Jaw Bone Cyn to Dove springs to a trail called Sherman Jeep Trail which took us into the Sequoias into Kern I can't remember after that was to long ago. The crazy thing was we drove off road all the way back to the valley with only one crossing over freeway one time. I think it was Pacomia cyn. That was in a Chevy 3/4 Silverado back in the days of white spokers wheels. lol I am now in AZ for the last 13 years.
This is some awesome stuff... good share!
I have the Ridge Grapplers on my F150.... Nitto in my opinion is one of the top notch tires on the market today. Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!
I second that
Love that truck
It's pretty dang good!
Last set of tires on my JK I was debating between those and the STT Pro's, went with the Coopers because they do a little better in the snow. Now that Cooper may not be made in the USA I might be switching to the Nitto's next time.
Glad to show of a different brand for ya... I dig the looks of the new STT pros for sure!
Nitto for the win ✌️
I’m really digging them!
Yes rear locker baby you know! In that vid talk about the specs of the rear axle if you please. Also how do I get my 2020 hemi to sound as ferocious as your 09??
Still trying to get an apt. at the rear end shop for the locker but the exhaust is easy and a fun home install you can try ruclips.net/video/wDrTm2k-i8c/видео.html
I got inspired by your Ram content to modify mine to almost the same setup
I have used the Fox 2.0 coilovers but i am not happy with how they perform offroad, it easily bottoms out amd the tires hot the fenders
Do you recommend the Icon?
It's pretty clear Pinto isn't interested in your Jasper engine (0:40) but only in her ball. She probably didn't help much with the engine swap anyway 😜 Glad you mentioned looks. If it doesn't look cool I'm not driving it no matter how well it performs. Pinto has it all, she looks cool & performs & she's made in the USA! Rock on Pinto.
You know, Pinto came out and gave me a "pep talk" just when I needed it most! She's amazing that way.
Whoa lol 😂 here I am scared to put 35 inch tires on my Ram 2500. How do they not scrub? Nice truck btw!
Awesome videos! Thank you for being detailed.
What are your thoughts on running 37x12.5x20 with 3.92s on an 8spd tranny? Also what things should I watch out for?
2017 1500 4wd sport model with 6" BDS coilover lift and UCAs.
Any info is appreciated!
Probably be pretty good gear wise with that transmission. I've broken a few front half shafts but I wheel pretty hard.
Jason I recall you installed your air ride suspension 1st on the Ram and than sometime after did the full upgrade with RCV Performance Products Ultimate IFS CV Front Axles and the entire pallet of Mevotech X Factor components. If this is correct, question. Did you keep the air ride after the latter upgrade?
Still running the air ride and love it. Not only is it great for load leveling for heavy stuff... when I went camping I just disconnected one end of the rear sway bar and used the independent control on the bags to level my tent.
Check out Maxxis Razr MT's, the main reason I went with them was that they have a milage warranty and that's unheard of for a MT. They have been a excellent tire
I ran those for a few years on my Jeep and they were really good. These are a bit more refined and better on the highway, which is an important factor for me.
Hey Jason, I am a big fan of your truck build. I have a 2014 ram that has the bilstein 2.5" level in the front and some heavy duty progressive springs the the rear. It ended up with a 1 inch forward rake, which I like a lot. Is that Icon kit only 2.5" as well of lift? I realize the front bumper makes a difference in tire clearance, but how in the world can you fit 37's on a 2.5 inch lift?
That's the main thing but this truck has been tweaked in a few places... like no inner fender splash shields and some other stuff like that. Go into the truck playlist here on the channel and in the suspension overhaul video I go through it pretty good.
@@AutoEdits Thanks, I've been working my way back through the truck videos paying more attention. Just found where you mention the fender liners. Up here in WA I need to account for a lot more mud, water, and snow on a yearly basis. Not sure I can make the jump to no fender liners.....yet.
what about getting a set of the milestar like on the Jeep for the truck just to see how they would conpare from the Jeep to Ram Johnson or Nittos for the Jeep same comparison
Great suggestion! What I've learned so far is that the Milestar Patagonia MT's on the Jeep don't have the proper load rating for a half ton truck and towing/hauling duties. So, I would have to go down to 37" on or up to 40" to get that load rating... hmmm... now that's an idea!
I remember the original build series on that truck, can't remember which mag did the series, it's still a cool truck!
There's a clue to which magazine on the seat covers when I start the driving segment! I've pretty much rebuilt the entire drivetrain at this point and agree... it's a great truck!
@@AutoEdits yes, I see it now!
If you ever plan on reupgrading headlights, Morimoto and Alpha Rex make some really good quality products, specially the Morimoto XB’s and Alpha Rex LUXX or Nova series
hello, I've been following you for a long time, I wanted to ask you what relationship do you have to the differential? I mount 3.92 with the "37 but I would go to 4.55! advice?
I have 4.56 gears in this truck right now with the 37" tires and it's too much. 4.10 would be correct.
Hey Jason! Your ram inspired me to pick up one of my own! Wanted to pick your brain. I know you're running 37s on an older 6speed transmission truck but I'm running an 18' with the 8 speed and 3.21 rear axle ratio. Because of some weird design piece by ZF in their transmission to front dif connections, you can't get aftermarket ratios put into ZF trans trucks like mine. That being said, do you think its a bad idea to throw on a set of the lightest 37s I can find to run on my rig even though it only has 3.21s? Would love your input if you have the time. Love the videos 👍
I like to hear this! Even with how good the 8 speed trans is... 37's on that ratio would be a lug on the low end. Probably fine on road but climbing in 4Lo is where you'd notice.
Where did you find this info on the ZF? I was going to put an 8hp70 in my 06 but I want to be able to regear. Can you share where you got this info please?
the truck looks MEAN!
I agree!!! Thanks!
Quick question!! Do you know how to turn of the eco mode permanently!! If I need a tuner which kind will do the job. Thanks
I used the HP tuners HPI2 unit and one credit on their free software. But I think any of the tuners can do that for you. Makes a difference, I get better mileage without that on.
Pretty impressive that it went up that hill in 2wd without a locker.
That really surprised me... the rear end is fairly worn out and it was cool to go back and watch the video of one tire spin and the other almost give up but catch some traction just in time. A locker back there and this truck will be unbelievably good.
I've been following your channel for a wile now and really appreciate all the great info! Especially your ram truck.
I would like to build a ram but not sure whats a better platform... a 1500 with the IFS? or a 2500 Hemi with the solid axles. Ive herd you mention the IFS being a bit of a scare for you at times, worrying about it, But I'm not sure if your upgrades made that stress go away???
I've always bounced back between a jeep jku and a ram 3500 cummins...but neither can do what I need, the Jeep Jku cant haul the family around comfortably, and the Diesel ram just weighs to much to take on serious trails...
And I would Love a truck or vehicle that Can tow, haul, overland, and wheel, and be able to use it as a work truck.
Could you recommend to me whats the best ram to start with in your opinon? Id like to keep costs down, so new power wagon is outta the question...would like to start with a 2014 and older and build from there.
Much appreciated
Most economical way in to the durability you want is the Ram 2500. There are many great companies that make all the suspension stuff you'll ever need for that platform as long as you stay in the 2014 range.
@@AutoEdits Rite on! thanks for the reply! and keep up the awesome Videos! I cant believe you dont have more subscribers, your content is bang on!
@@deanweller5789 Thanks a ton!
I wanna try the nittos but the Toyo mt has the best looking sidewall.
What was your final verdict on the MAXXIS RZT MTs on your Jeep? I'd like to know before I buy.
I liked the RZR MT's overall a lot. Fantastic looks and confidence inspiring durability, I felt like I couldn't hurt them. My nitpicky issues are that they are "lumpy" at low speeds don't grip quite as good as these do in the rocks but not by much... Can totally recommend them especially if you like the looks of them.
When is the locker going in? Trying to mimic my 06 to yours. Inspiring. Thanks
Unfortunately , I had to sell the truck and miss it very much. Detroit makes a locker for that rear end.
@@AutoEdits I'm sorry to hear. Did it go to someone on IG I can follow?
What did you air down to? Lite Brite has the same tires on their Jeep and noticed they dont have to air down as far to get good traction.
12
I have a 2012 ram 1500 that is quite built still missing some items but has nittos trail grappler mts for about 8 months now and Maybe 15k miles still look brand new! And just took it through some deep snow . . . A pass in montana and it had 3.5 feet of snow I put it in 4 hi and she did not slip once it was amazing very much my favorite tire will be buying again. Ps let's see a ton more of ram Johnson please!?!?!
Cool to hear about your truck! Hard to give time to all the cars here and especially hard when this poor truck doesn't get any views on the you tubes. But I love it and have plans for it.
@@AutoEdits gotcha its sad it doesn't get many views it was watching yours part of the reason I got mine
Not sure, might be the paint job or just my hosting skills.
@@AutoEdits your hosting is awsome its probably the misconception of the ifs isn't strong where now days os 10 times better and can rival solid axle 4x4 in many cases but on any account keep pluging on everytome a video comes out for that truck ill be right there to see it!
Are your cab/body mounts supposed to move that much? Maybe I've never noticed.
Yep... I thought that was crazy at first as well. That's why we are so comfortable in there while getting rad. lol
I am starting my build on a 2019 Classic 1500. Was wondering what gears are in your truck? do you think 37s are considerably better than 35? any problems with trans temp?
I have 4.56 gears and it's too much. 4.10 would be better. I like the looks of the 37's on this truck and they have performed fantastic in all conditions for me. This thing goes interstate distances with ease and I can smash it on the rocks whenever.
@@AutoEdits Mine still has the factory 3.21s so am going to stay on 35s. re gearing will definitely be in the future. Keep up the great content. Oh you mentioned repainting Johnson, I am a huge fan of the graphics you have, Keep it crazy and different.
Im stuck between getting 39 inch km3s or the nittos in a 37. Bfg runs small so they’ll measure out roughly the same. What are your thoughts? I had km3s in a 37 and i loved them but I’ve heard these blow them out of the water
Help me decide !🙏🏼
KM3s are probably lighter. Usually BFG run lighter, which is good imo for a lot of different reasons such as MPG and it puts less strain on suspension components
I would really like to try the KM3's in a 39" to get first hand experience but from what I've seen with people I've wheeled with... the KM3's rule in the rocks but are not very good in inclement weather like snow/ rain. So there's that compromise again. I haven't taken these in the rain yet so I'll let you know but from my experience so far with the Trail Grappler MT's... I'm fairly confident they will be awesome at all the stuff I need.
You need them on your Jeep too! I love mine!!
Don't tell anyone but these are so good... I'm strongly considering going back down to a 37" Trail Grappler for the Jeep because they performed that good.
@@AutoEdits Haha! I won't tell anyone! Why not go up to a 40"?
@@Mike_E_44 I didn't really build the Jeep for 40's by committing to the UD44 front axle and I'd have to re-gear. I wouldn't mind going that way but just kind of headed down a different path.
@@AutoEdits yeah I could have saved a lot of money NOT going that way.
Love the falkens but those nitros look soooo good...solid amount of BEEF 😂😂
That's exactly what I'm thinking!
Do you experience any rubbing with 37’s? Also what is the offset or backspacing on your wheels? Are they 17x8.5?
No rub. 17x10 with 4.75 backspace
@@AutoEdits thank you!
These are the tires I’ll be getting! Is it completely necessary to take the front fender liners out to make 37s fit? Thanks in advance.
Not if you have a little lift. The front bumper might rub a bit as well but could be easily trimmed.
@@AutoEdits I’d be getting a pre-runner bumped soon. I’ll probably have to start with 35s and see how everything lined up. I plan on going with the icon stage 5 lift.
Go for it!
Can we please get some more ram content ????? Please been watching since you get the truck and I'm missing it
I miss it as well. Sold it last year.
I miss this truck, bro.
You and me both!
I have personally fallen in love with Nitto tires. I'm on my 2nd set (had G1s now G2s) of Terra Grapplers. Cheaper the BFGs & I think wear better.
Nice to hear this... I don't actually have a complaint yet. New fan for sure.
I have the G2 and love them
I'd like to see someone doing a comparison against the general grabber X3, honestly I believe that the X3 is extremely underrated
The newer General offerings look pretty good but I've been eyeing these for a while and for the reasons I mentioned... I NEED extremely strong sidewall protection for this project.
e-locker / air locker or something like a mechanical auto locker?
There aren't a lot of options for this vehicle... the two most prominent are a lunch box style locker and a true Detroit Locker... the second option is much stronger but also much more expensive. LOL
Nice
Thanks!
I know this is old, but have you done a follow up review on your icon stage five
I've never done a dedicated "review" of the suspension but it has performed amazing over the years. One of my favorite videos showing off how good it does is this one ruclips.net/video/GGvByOkRXGM/видео.html
@@AutoEdits really appreciate the reply. I watch that one all the way through to see if you would talk about it but I’m glad you mentioned it. I’ve got an icon stage five for a 14 ram that I’m going to build.
What size are the wheels and what offset?? Been trying to find out if 17x8.5 0 offset will rub on aftermarket UCA's !
Here's the rundown on these wheels ruclips.net/video/aTWINh3knEk/видео.html They are 17x10 with 4.75" backspace
@@AutoEdits assuming a 17x9 -12 with 4.53 backspace would fit the same ? That's if these have 0 offset
Trying to make sure an 8.5 wide or 9 wide won't rub on the upper or lower arms not worried about front bumper/rear fender part
So if you love them so much why didn’t you put them on your wrangler? I went from these on my wrangler to the Miles star Patagonia because of your feedback... Should’ve I stuck with the Nitto Trail grapplers at this point based on your feedback it seems as though I should have?
Hard to tell from this comment but what's going on here?
My Jeep still has PatagoniaMTs... Joe's Jeep I built has PatagoniaMTs ... the truck had FalkenMTs and it was time to try something different. I'm not sure what you want from me with "I went from these on my wrangler to the Miles star Patagonia because of your feedback... Should’ve I stuck with the Nitto Trail grapplers at this point based on your feedback it seems as though I should have?"
Tires are a wear item... in a few years when these wear down I'll probably try something else! That's part of the fun.
Roger that! I’ve been following your channel for a long time and respect your opinion. That’s why I went with a metal cloak for my lift and love your videos and honest opinions!! Keep up the amazing videos!!!
Thanks so much for being a part of it all!
@@AutoEdits always will be here to support your awesome videos and feedback!!! Thanks for all you do for the Jeep community and automotive RUclips industry!! You and Pinto ROCK!!! 🤙🏼
how did you get those to fit with only a mild lift ?
There are a few videos in the truck playlist that go over that but the main thing is a different front bumper.
It seems that Jasper's motor is still running like a 🏆champ..
Yes it is!
Made in the USA 🇺🇸. That got my subscription. Buy American!!!
That was a big plus for me AND they are an awesome tire!
This ram needs a off-road adventure with the story till now
I've told the story a few times ruclips.net/video/AZhnbo-1Q18/видео.html
but I agree on another off road adventure!
@@AutoEdits i would love to see y’all start to Collaborate some video series with other you tubers this truck always excites me to see a full-size on some technical tight trails. Owning a 2016 ram 1500 with lift and wheels I know your feeling some days the jeep is just easier or needed lmao
Have to ask. What exhaust are you running?
Flowmaster outlaw... it rocks! ruclips.net/video/wDrTm2k-i8c/видео.html
Nice paint work, I thought those were real riveted panels in the first shot.
They did that back in 2009 for the SEMA show all by hand. I keep meaning to do a little bit of the body repair and painting it back one color but never having the money or energy.
@@AutoEdits 😂 ahhh, money and energy; if only those were in copious supply....
Right!!!??? As I get older both get more scarce ....LOL

For the 37s did you regear or was it regeared before u got it
This truck already was re geared to 4.56

First time you mentioned Ram Johnson, years ago, I thought you were joking. I guess it stuck.
Same here... kind of just came out and really makes me smile.
what size lift is on the truck to fit 37s?
It's the TRX so maybe 1 or 2 inches. Mostly it's the removal of fender liners and front bumper.
I had these on my JK, never again. A shrub branch puncthured the sidewall.
Sounds like a bummer.
What gear ratio are you run? What rpm are you at at 75 mph?
4.56 and it gets awful highway mileage. 4.10 with the 37" tires would be much better.
We need the Ram content back 🙏
Can't, I don't own it anymore.
@AutoEdits
Oh, that's bad for us 😅
How about the Icon vehicle dynamics coil overs? Do you recommend for offroading? I have fox 2.0 but theh have bad performance offroad and good onroad
@@NardoGreyRam I don't know about the fox. This truck handled great off road. Have you watched the rest of this video or any of the other videos showing this truck? Plenty of good examples.
@AutoEdits yes sure man, i watched all your Ram content 👌 amazing
But i thought you knew about fox vs Icon
I will buy Icon then and hopefully it will be better than Fox
Thank you
Why did you ditch the Letner ACS???
I only took it off for a few weeks just to change it up a bit and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to remove and reinstall the rack system.
It's been three years with the motor??
Close to four and 30,000+ miles.
Do you still drive this beauty?
I had to sell it a while back but the new owner still drives heck out of it.
Did you cancel the Active Fule Manegement???
Yes
@@AutoEdits I was told that it's not worth it
@@barrymonroy7138 Feels better with it disabled and I don't notice any change in fuel mileage.
How much would it cost to build something like this?
$10k plus a truck
I’m looking at putting a locker in my Ram also. I’ll never understand Why Ram builds a 4x4 with open diffs. I mean....It’s not really a 4x4 then is it!
It certainly isn't when one wheel is off the ground...lol
