    The All New RAM Tractor

    So I live on the side of the mountain and my driveway has been washed out.

    I got all kinds of dirt sitting at the bottom of my driveway where it connects to the road.

    I need to get that dirt out of there and the only way to go is up.

    My old ford 8n tractor doesn't have the power to pull the dirt up hill, but my Cummins does.

    So I got a hitch and plow, did some modifications cause the truck sits to high and now I got the new ram tractor.

    That dirt doesn't stand a chance now.

    That’s an awesome setup! How do you get it to raise to make another pass?

    If you look closely you'll see some wires running from the bed down to the set up. That's going from a battery in the back of the truck to a winch that I use to raise it.
    I will say this would be a hell of a lot easier if I had a reverse camera cause I cant see it when inside the truck. I was hoping removing the tailgate would help but it doesn't

    Oh gotcha!! Yeah I seen the wires but not the winch. Definitely a backup camera would help. Maybe invest in an aftermarket camera? Cool setup!

    Backup camera is on my list of things to add. But 1st I gotta get the "fuel economy enhancement kit". I also want to switch the lift kit to a long arm, regear and add a limited slip

    I helped a friend install a Garmin that had a camera for the bumper. It worked. Maybe you could look into that ?

    I actually already got a aftermarket radio in that can be used with a camera.

    I just need to get the camera and hook it up.
