    Parking heaters at altitude

    Yes it is ran by a thermostat. One other advantage to the Planar (VS webasto and Espar) is that you can, should you so choose, run it based on power level (as opposed to thermostat temperature setting). At higher altitudes, I am still weary of running it via thermostat. These type of heaters...

    Parking heaters at altitude

    Planar D2 is up and running! Thanks for the excellent support/communication. Planar British Columbia has been easy to contact with the few small questions I've had with them as well. It fit in place where I had previously installed my Webasto. I used the fuel line and footprint from the...

    Parking heaters at altitude

    Just ordered a Planar d2 from totalcomposites (as well as a 12v water heater, I didn't know anything with those specs existed, and for a fair price too, im stoked!) Now the hard part will be finding a spot for the 13l diesel tank... anyone need a new uninstalled Webasto airtop 2000stc gasoline...

    Falken Wildpeak AT/3W - anyone running them? Opinions?

    I like mine so far on my 4x4 Ford transit. I'm running 33". Good performance and not too loud on the road

    Anyone know what the Webasto 2000ST petrol pump ml is? What ml should I downsize to?

    Parking heaters at altitude

    Do you know if it is the same mounting footprint as a Webasto 2000 or Espar D2/D4?

    Parking heaters at altitude

    My unit has been fully leaned out by a certified tech. My whole install was just recently looked over by a certified tech, and they told me it looked fine :mad:

    Parking heaters at altitude

    I have a Webasto Airtop 2000st gasoline and I am at my whits end! It has been a nightmare. Multiple failures due to carbon buildup, and I've had a shop lean it out for altitude. Last night it failed again. I was at my folks place around 7200ft. I also regularly expect to operate a heater at...

    Multiple timers for Webasto US market heaters

    Yes you can have multiple timers on your US market Webasto Airtop 2000 st! Here's how: WebastoTech USA (and Canada) is clueless about any of this, which is silly, because its really quite simple. First you need 3 parts. The Multicontrol itself (9030910D) , the Unibox/Multicontrol wiring harness...

    Ford Transit Quigley vs Sprinter 4x4?

    I have a Quadvan transit. I'm running 255/80/17s and at full steering lock I get a small bit of rub on the inside edge of the front tires. Looking I to spacers to solve this. Had to do a bit of cutting in the wheel wells/pinch welds. I am not experienced in off roading, but I have taken it on...

    Destinations for a 4x4 high roof?

    Are there any resources that list good destinations for a 4x4 high roof van? I am looking for a list of trails which aren't too crazy with off-camber or anything requiring an aggressive amount of clearance as well as not having anything hanging too impede the high roof. I've got a Ford transit...

    Fuel tank in place of my spare tire???

    I realize that about spare fuel, thanks. Current range is about 400mi, conservatively. Its not a huge tank..

    Fuel tank in place of my spare tire???

    This might be a good option. One hesitation I have is sticking out too far interfering with approach angles but I understand you can get an adapter to raise the hitch point

    Fuel tank in place of my spare tire???

    I googled before posting for sure.. most of these options are way more expensive then I could justify. I feel like a plastic, doughnut-shaped tank shouldn't be more then $200. I don't need a system to feed the fuel. It would just be for emergency. If I need it, I would lower it like a spare...
