Those are great photography, with experienced composition, Brad! I view them on a 27" iMac 5k screen for their glorious resolutions. Thanks for sharing. What equipment were these photos taken with?
If you ever come to the Pacific Northwest of USA, we should meet up where I have a large country...
When I purchased this rig, I thought it would be a two year project as I already have no shortage of other projects pending. Also I want to plan the design carefully with attentions to details and execute quality work. There are a lot to consider, calculate, and design around the constraints...
My closest Fuso truck service shop is 3 hours drive. I went to pick up the driver side reflector for the step that took a month to arrive to them. The general manager has been most friendly to talk to. I think I talked to him on the phone circa 3 years ago in looking for a Canter 4x4 and that...
Speaking of DEF. I'd only bought three 2.5 gallons packs up to now. I thought they are expensive even at big box stores. Yes, there is old wife tales that you don't want any that has sat around but fram fresh.
I just found this Walmart house brand that is about 50% to 100% cheaper. I think I...
Some rigs are worse than others, and with my brief experience the FG4x4 is in the worse bucket. Reading the owner manual suggests that as well as my experience. When it threw a red check engine light and went into limp mode, it will no longer do automatic regen. And no amount of attempts one can...
Ha! You ain't seen nu'thing yet. For me ICE is one of men's greatest achievements. I can't keep up with Jay Leno, or Harry's Garage in your neck of woods, but my buddy and I are egging each other on to see who has more desirable vehicles. US is a crappy place to be in race cars, compared to UK...
My current thought is to build the cab side shroud with a combination of fiberglass and sheet metal. Fiberglass construction is easier to deal with the undulating ribs of the cab back wall, and a flat steel frame on the inside for mounting over-center clamps.
The long pole in the tent for my project is the cab crawl through. It is a crawl through because of the modest passage size. The Fuso Canter is a small truck and hence the pass though too to keep things in proportion. While I didn't specify the habitat box, I appreciate how well thought out it...
The hinge bracket for one of the gas strut on the roof winter was unglued when I took possession of the rig, also all the roller blinds and screens were messed up. I fixed all that.
the first time I use it as the hatch to gain access of the roof
Since I plan not to change the seats...
I know. Some prefer to keep it one fuel. I would in an ideal world, but the ideal products for one fuel don't exist in my book. I want diesel hydronic heat. I can have hot water which I would. But often I want instant hot water without firing up the diesel heater. That is from the compact...
This is the compact Japanese on-demand water heater I plan to install above the kitchen sink. It wastes next to no water before you get hot water out of the cleverly designed articulating spray arm. It is not direct vent so not for idiots and some litigation happy Americans. It only needs...
Yes! The Azimoo box is one of the very few that set out to address the common aerodynamic shortcoming of these habitat boxes. The other less complex approach is to have a slant on the front top corner but that erodes the usable interior wall area. With my box wider than cab I pay additional...
I looked at a lot of sinks, sinks with drainboard (all NLA), combi sink with hobs, domestic sinks and eventually settle on this one from Dometic/Smev/srl that I found for a bargain. I plan to mount a Japanese compact on-demand propane water heater above it. The common error for picking a camper...
Due to the added diesel emission equipment this truck lost much of the useful saddle space along both sides. I tried to find a 10 gallon propane tank that will fit between the rear wheel and the DEF tank to no avail including Manchester online catalog. They are all too long. I didn't give up and...
I am quite familiar the typical Sanden compressors used in auto industry. Just didn't think of hacking one for the express purpose. They have a swash plate like mechanism which drives the radially arranged pistons in cyclical sequence. If you know the specific engine well you can find a OEM...
