New guy...New toy

[murfman]

I just joined this site, I've been a member on RCC for a while, as well as many other boards.  I just purchased my 5th Ramcharger, I now currently own 2 of them a rust free roller 1978, and my newest a Green 2000 5.2 powered Mexican Rammy  I have to go pick it up in Cali in 2 weeks, It needs some cosmetics, touch up some paint issues, replace the top of the dash etc..  Not sure yet which way I'm going to go with it, lift it, lower it, or convert it to 4 WD... One way or the other I'm stoked as I've wanted one since I heard about them back in 1999

What do you do with all those great toys.

My first one got totalled by a drunk driver back in 1987, I sold my 79 on Ebay back in 1999, and I sold the Trail Duster to a friend of mine back in 01, it was still kicking around the area last summer but was getting pretty weathered. (Actually Studie from these forums had it for sale last Spring/Summer) I bought my latest 78 last spring out of Idaho, and have been collecting parts for it (5.9 Magnum, NV4500,NP205, Dana 60's) but may sell it now that I bought the 2000. (Same buddy that bought my TD is interested)  I am also stretching my TJ 15" this Summer and putting a LJ tub on it along with a 5.9 Magnum, a box 4 rocks doubler, and a 241OR transfer case.  My 1999 Ram is stuck in body shop purgatory but should be finished this spring as well

good luck on getting the 2000 going.

yours is a slt so it already has a lot of features mine did not. Mine looked a lot better in the pics than it did in person lol.

I just got a pm from rcc about someone in TX that just got one at an auction too, guess they are popping up a lot right now, wonder why.

It's alive!!  Had a few hiccups along the way, but it drives nice with the 2500 suspension, smooth and stable  Engine is nice and strong, its ready to pull a house...

cool you got the cummins going in it. I love my striker 408 in mine, but my 05 cummins is a pulling beast!!!!

granted the cummins can't keep up with the RamCharger either lol
