Thanks stan. I finally got a little motivation and fixed the hoses for my hydro assist. I broke one of the fittings pulling it off the trailer. I think I have air in the system though because it doesnt want to turn. I also need to go get some more leafs to add to my pack it needs a little more lift in the front.

Thanks chevymog I need to get this thing out on the trail more.


Stan I would love to do top truck challenge. That being said I don't think my rig is even close to being that caliber of rig.

I had another great trip in the ramcharger! The front end worked better with the added leaf and it sits pretty level. We hit behind the rocks, cliff hanger, rusty nail and metal masher. I messed up the trans on rock chucker so it will need a rebuild. I also need to work on the brakes on steep decends it is hard to go slow.

I am going to try to put some 56" leaf springs on the front and go with full hydro. It only has 48" springs on there at the moment. I am hoping with 56" springs it will get more flex. Here is some pics from our trip
