We are building what could be the ultimate overland rig! Here is a quick preview of how it’s coming together. We have several full-length video episodes coming soon that will show and explain all of the “best of the best” components within this build!
Ford “Super Tremor” Overland Rig
The basis is a new 2020 Ford F-250 crew cab 4×4 with a FX4 package and a 7.3-liter Godzilla gas V8 under the hood that is mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. The base power from this “big block” engine is 430 hp and 475 lb-ft of torque. We have much more planned to enhance this beast’s power and power delivery.
First, we partnered with Carli Suspensions in Southern California for a top notch suspension lift system. This is their most advanced Pintop 3.5-inch lift system with Deaver springs and custom-tuned King Shocks.
Next, we needed tough wheels and tires to enable long distance off-road driving. This truck is meant to go cross-country on dirt on the TransAmerica trail. We call this summer adventure “No Pavement Needed”. As such, we selected KMC Wheels and Falken Wildpeak A/T3W tires. The wheels are 18-inch in diameter. The tires are 37-inches in diameter.
Next up is our new mobile office and a place to sleep. We chose what they call the “world’s best camper” by Four Wheel Campers. It’s their top of the line Hawk model.
We are not done yet! Up next is a customized engine, transmission, tire, and 4×4 tune from 5 Star Tuning and many more components to make the “Super Tremor” – the best all-around overland rig.
