Yes, you can overland to amazing places in comfort and style with a new RAM truck, but you know what is problematic on these 5th Gen RAM half-tons? The front differential housing is super weak and can break free of the truck without much force. We learned this first hand while on a trip in Northern Nevada and into the Owyhees in South Eastern Oregon. In this video, the Ginger runs through what broke, why it happened, how we fixed it and how the truck has been since (on multiple expeditions).

In previous videos, you saw us install a BDS 6" suspension, with upper control arms and fancy new Fox coilovers on our 2022 RAM Rebel GT truck, codenamed "Swim Shady". We are running a 20" Fuel Wheel with 37" Nitto Trail Grapplers. The truck has the Hemi 5.7L with e-Torque, a rear locker and the 3.92 gearing. Since our front-end fix, we've had the truck on many expeditions in Northern British Columbia and it has performed quite well.

At this time we are not selling our custom front differential bracket, however if you purchase an EPIC RAM 1500 through White Rock Dodge, you can rest assured the bracket will be included in our suspension package.
