Thanks again for the tips. How is the overall process going? On the electrical side are u using only batteries?
Finishing up the compartment doors -
I am replacing the key locks on the compartments with barrel locks, all matching. They are a bit proud of them, but it will be nice to have a good secure lock for all the doors and compartments, that all work with the same key.
Installed
When I got them installed, I was a bit annoyed that the reveals were not as precise as I thought they would be, but then I looked at how all the rest of the doors fit from the factory, and I am WELL within the tolerances set from the factory.
New seals as well
Other thing to do prior to getting the bumper built was rework the fuel filler - It hung down below the cutoff line of the body
Chopped it down a bit... We will see if the fuel nozzle bottoms out when I gas up!
and then trimmed the aluminum a bit so the hoses can tuck up and out of the way
1/4" diamond plate should protect it a bit better
Also if you are interested I have a bunch of new electric lock actuators I bought to replace the ones on my ambulance. It would of probably been a better idea to get the right size ones But I will sell them cheap if you are interested.
Actually just looking at the photos it does not look like yours have any electric locks????
Man, I buy a wrecked RV to cannabilize for ambulance parts, and not one comment? Wake up people! This is exciting stuff!

Do you guys w/ the duallys ever have problems w/ rocks getting jammed in between the tires?
If I was closer,I would make an offer on the cab and chassis complete with running gear.I can't afford to make and offer and ship or drive a van all the way back to SC.
