The Ram is the best looking of the HD trucks these last few years... The Ford and gm just look like a stack of text books with how tall and square their fronts are.

@rlaracue Год назад

This truck build has been epic. Really love the bumper/light/winch additions. Great build!

@jaykanngiesser3454 Год назад

AEV makes some beautiful gear. If I could afford, would LIVE to replicate this build.

Shout out to Nate from AEV!

@shawnriddle3018 Год назад

Gotta love Nate. This truck is awesome. The silver color with the black looks real sweeet! Thanks to this channel i found my dream truck back in 2015. I bought my 15 AEV Prospector Power Wagon. 31,000.0 miles now. Came with 37's from the dealer lot. Looking forward to seeing more videos with the Trail hound.

@jasonlovell3934 Год назад

That is a great shop I would let them work on our rock crawler if I lived there. The truck could use some rock sliders.

@Defender_Tom Год назад

AEV makes some premium products. I put this bumper, a winch, and their fender flares on my RAM w/ 41” tires. Instructions were great. It was hard work by myself, but doable. All their parts still look brand new on the truck and have been on for 3 years now.

@MaryandTheJeepCycle Год назад

That is one sick rig!! Hopefully my truck will look like that in 10 years haha!

Nice work!

@erin7995 Год назад

wow grilll completely changes the truck in a god way

@scorpionsting47 Год назад

Nice bumper. Doesn't really match the dodge style lines though. Big gaps under the headlights. But the more rounded shape of the stampings mimic the ram good.

@aevnate4140 Год назад

I wish we could have had a smaller gap as well. One thing to remember the frame and body do not flex the same when offroading and we have seen, off-road, that gap is necessary due to the flex differences between the body and the frame.

@scottdm9707 Год назад

@@aevnate4140 May want to consider a rubber gasket/flexible material to cover the gap.

@Stoney_AKA_James Год назад

Nice rig!

@domh7367 Год назад

Love it! Only problem I see is tree limbs going threw that firewood rack skid an punching into that radiator but other than that I love it. Looks strong an stylish like it came from factory

@aevnate4140 Год назад

I won't say it is impossible, but this skid plate at a minimum is 18" off of the ground and adds more protection than the stock bumper. I have been on many trails using our front bumper. I haven't had to worry about sticks punching the intercooler. There isn't a chance for your front tires to kick up a stick to puncture the intercooler since this intercooler is in front of the tires. I can only see that as a possibility if you plan to drive over down trees with significant branches. I would suggest either cutting the tree out of the way or at least the branches that could cause an issue.

@GrenadierMichael Год назад

Interesting about wiring the auxiliary lights. That's just the way everyone’s always done it in Australia, and your car wouldn’t be road legal without it.

@bc6806 Год назад

That’s a lot of money 💰. Nothing but the best for you guys. Surprised you didn’t buy a AEV prospector XL.

@clarkstonguy1065 5 месяцев назад

If I were wheeling in a 6.7L this bumper would be on it!

Finally you guys added some aev parts

Wiring up spotlights to high beam has been law in Australia for decades.

@TREVORJB101 Год назад

Awesome video! I can't believe I forgot all about this bad ass rig!

@WW-wf8tu Год назад

That's because it spends more time being re-purposed than used. 🤣

@jackthibodeau6810 Год назад

I made a custom steel bumper for my 2007 ram. Mainly it was there for a winch but recently it saved my truck. I hit a deer going 40mph and the bumper was fine and the truck was fine. I reccomend push bumpers to anyone one who can get one

@jasonpitts8395 Год назад

Good looking truck and winch. You guys should take it through the TFL offroad obstacle course. Take the camper shell off first.

@justintarvid Год назад

It wouldn't make it through the course. It's still a stock Ram 2500.

@anthonysourdiff1835 Год назад

The truck is looking great.👍

@abqcrutch Год назад

Loving the Trailhound. You should add some rock sliders/steps. Something like Maple Off-road's rock sliders w/rub-rails.

@thomasbenefield3527 Год назад

Sweet! Way to make a cool truck even better!

@brian2359 Год назад

You need to look into long travel air bags for the rear! It’s a must for a rig setup like yours!

@lanceripplinger8352 Год назад

Great build!

@sergiomendoza4250 Год назад

The RAM is cummins along very nice! However I’m surprised the weak halogen headlights were not upgraded at this time.

Would love to see a set of those new BFG HD Trail tires on this rig!

@slidewide1999 Год назад

The HD Terain KT’s? Those tires look cool, unfortunately they don’t make any big sizes yet.

@NatesHomeTours Год назад

Aux lights with high beams is easy. I do it with my light bars all the time. No switch needed ever. Use a relay and have full time power and ground to relay. Use the power wire to your high beams as the trigger. Now every time you hit the high beams or flash someone not turning theirs off you have your light bar come on at the same time. Now to what the guy said about the lights melting the covers, How? LED's put out no heat in the front. At most maybe enough to feel a slight difference when its cold out. Other than the the heat fins on back will have all the heat. So the front will not melt the covers, unlike the Halogen versions will.

@aevnate4140 Год назад

I might not answer this the best but, from what I understand it's similar to using a magnifying glass and starting things on fire.

@NatesHomeTours Год назад

@@aevnate4140 Maybe, I was more focused on the heat output of the lights themselves.

@malloced Год назад

Pretty great for a "farm truck"

@jayhiggins5239 Год назад

Wish you had measured fender height before and after.

@jayallen7368 Год назад

Get rid of the grid heater and swap to banks the grid heater is a engine kill with its weak bolts that snap off and cause engine failure

Ok now I have to know what are the plans for that Peugeot?

@MDR.TRUCKS Год назад

How much is it? thank you guys good video

@WW-wf8tu Год назад

So this one time meant as a "ranch truck" turned into an "overland truck" is now a "recovery 4x4 truck". My question is, what ever happened to that Jeep you bought for recoveries???? All outfitted with a ton of accessories/modifications including a winch that was going to be used as now you say this truck is going to be used for. For that matter, didn't you have an old FJ40 that was going to be your recovery rig? And David was going to build a truck of his own for the on-X OR recovery course. And of course, you have side by sides that come in and are the ones actually doing the recovery. lol Very confusing. Oh and I almost forgot, you had a Unimog there at 1 time as well that was going to do some recoveries, but all it did was drag around a small SUV in the grass. 🤷‍♂

@@TFLoffroad Oh I have been. lol Like reading a book. The story never ends. Just feels like some of the pages get torn out and I miss complete chapters. lol

@nathanwoten6236 Год назад

The intercooler gaurd is cool but a stick or anything else can go through the gaurd verry easily kts basicly only good if your going to run in to a large rock or stump or somethimg anything smaller will go right into the intercooler still. Something like a solid skid plate with a bunvh of dimple died holes would of been a better design to actually protect the intercooler and they could of used some kinda vent or what ever you wanna call it to devert more air to the intercoler to help keep sufficient air flow

@scottdm9707 Год назад

If this is a vehicle specific bumper for the RAM 2500, why is there such a large gap between the bumper and the headlights? Makes it look like the truck has a body lift.

@J.Young808 Год назад

What if someone wants to run the auxiliary lights without the headlights?

@aevnate4140 Год назад

I get that question often, and I cannot see a scenario in which I would want to run my auxiliary lights without the headlights. The 7000 series lights are more powerful than the high beams but the high beams do help.

@xziang Год назад

Bumper=$2,700 Warn 16.5ti-S Winch=$3,520. Lights 7000 series = $1,120. Intercooler skid=479. Grand total for these items = $7,819.00. (Didn't include some items i know)
