All right, prepare yourselves — we took Breto’s 2020 Ram 2500 from bone stock to a full-blown around-Australia touring rig, and we did it start to finish in the shed. This isn’t some hardcore rock-crawler build either; it’s a proper big Aussie tourer setup built for towing a caravan, doing the kms, and not wasting weekends. We run through the plan, the exact model, and why the old spacer leveling kit had to go (because honestly… it handled terrible), then we get stuck straight into the big-ticket stuff: Superior Engineering-supplied Carli pintop suspension, KMC wheels, Nitto Ridge Grapplers, bar work, winch, roof platform, and the full tray + canopy touring fit-out. We also break down the costs because everyone wants to know what it actually takes to buy and build a big American truck in Australia. The Ram was $140K, and once you start stacking up suspension, bar work, touring electrics, roof gear, and the TDI tray/canopy setup, it adds up fast — but it’s Breto’s dream rig and his life savings, not some rich-kid build. Along the way we cover the little stuff that matters: limit straps to protect shocks, panhard/track bar geometry to stop the Ram wiggle, copper washer warnings on aftermarket wheels, and the reality that more lift can mean more driveline problems. Don’t wait — take the trip.
