20'Expedition RV on Freightliner with Mercedes Benz OM 906LA engine.
Looking for a suitable and affordable for my RV project based on a 20'shipping container, I found a Freightliner with MB engine in Europe which would be the starting point of my expedition.
This truck has nearly everything I'm looking for, it has 4x4, automatic transmission, Mercedes Benz engine, low miles, a 20'8" bed and is affordable in comparison to others.
However, there are a few things I'd like to modify to get the rig perfect.
1, It has dual rear wheels on a single axle which aren't the best off the road.
Is there any chance to change them into single ones like Unimog and Zetros what
specification and size would be required?
2, The drivers cab is a single one. I've seen crew cabs with high roof which would
be perfect for more space behind the seats and to get easier to the container box.
Any recommendation on that?
3, There is no air condition, but going later on to Africa I would like to have on.
I think this would be the most easiest part of all?
A good day to everybody!
