I ve been lurking around here for a while so I figure its time to post my expo build. Its a 2001 Dodge Ram Cummins 4x4. 4.10 Gears, 2" lift. Its used for Family Trips, Towing my Rock Crawling Rig and Our Camping Rig.

I've been neglicting it for a while now so it was time for a updated look. Always loved the look of H2's and a 35" tire. So I picked up a cheap set of chrome h2s and routered out the center of the H2 rims to the 4.77" to fit the dodge hubs and modified my stock 2nd gen center caps to fit. Picked up a new set of 315/70/17's BFG At's. A Very nice looking package.
Been wanting to build a front bumper for it for a long time. In my scrap pile I had a rusty, dented and yellow push bumper from a State Highway Ford Tow Truck. After a few hours of beating out the dents with a hammer and torch, trimmed the bumper up a bit and making new mounts to fit my dodge, it got to this point.
Too Narrow and too tall. After more chopping, adding a 10K winch plate, some duplicolor bed armour for a nice rugged finsh I ended up with this.
Finshed Product.
Once the money tree re grows I'll pick up a winch and cut out the opening for the winch fairled.
In the end I want a all around rig. That performs tow duty, family duty, and will get me out to the middle of no where and back. So hopefully I'll keep this thread growing with more cool things in the near future.
The next thing I need to address is more storage for when we go camping. When the wife, our 2yrs old and choch lab go away camping for the weekend it fills the cab and the bed. I'm look towards a chase type rack or ladder rack to help with storage. Ive had a bed cap and absolutly dont want another one.
Thanks
Rick
