Many years ago, I would say at least 96-97 time period, Mopar Muscle or Action did a quick blurb on a company that converted quad cab dodges to a Suburban equivelent vehicle. Does anyoen know of this company, or a company that might be doing this type of conversions to Quad Rams?

You could still get the "Ramcharger" in Mexico then, based off of the new body style, but I think it was a 2dr SUV, smaller than a suburban.

Yeah that has always been an option, but the stylign has always been iffy and I think the production run of those has finally stopped. Plus the import cost of converting it over to a US truck is a bother I don't want to deal with.

I would like to get a 4 door full size SUV, and would love it to be a Dodge. I have always been dissapointed that Mopar has not gone that way, especially with the success of the Ford and Chevy products of the same size. There are soem serious flaws to the sizing of the Durango and a wicked evil blind spot that I do not care for.

I know there was a company doing it to fords for years but i don't recall the name. Also i know there is a place in the midwest that has added many more doors to them. There is a ford around here that is a six door with extended cab!!!!

AH ha .... Centurion was the name of the ford version i have seen. I guess if you see a ram with a painted to match cap you could get an idea of what it would look like.
