There was a guy on here who grafted a westfalia pop top on an old square body...

Nothing borderline about it, and I’m a millennial that’s supposedly driving this automotive technology craze.

I had dual golf cart batteries on my 30’ trailer. Furnace was the biggest draw. It would go 2-3 days at ~50f. I didn’t have a battery monitor so maybe I could have gone longer.

I assume so. Also, what about heat? When it’s -28f and I have a 45 minute commute how much of my range is getting eaten up just keeping the windows defrosted? That’s if it even has adequate heaters in it. Of course that brings up the idea of pre heating the car before I get in on a cold day. You...

It's impossible to tell from the video I made if the shaft was loose on the original steering gear. I should have pulled the skid plates off and observed it from underneath as someone turned the wheel. Its very awkward to get to it from up top. You have to stand on a stepstool to get up there...

So after a few days driving with the new box it was sloppy again. I admitted defeat and scheduled a time to bring it into the pros. Long story short he tightened the bolt up on the steering shaft to steering gear and the steering is tight again, for now. He mentioned that the shaft might be worn...

Most of those transfer tanks are rated for diesel only.

I bought them from British Atlantic? I think. They’re the green ones. They’re deformed enough they don’t stand up straight anymore.

My steel wavian cans are permanently deformed after one trip from St.Paul MN(600’and 30f) to Sante Fe NM (6000’? And 75). The stream of gasoline when I stupidly opened the can up sprayed all over me and six foot over my shoulder. It was actually pretty impressive.

Don’t forget elevation change affects gas cans as well.

If you used a multi stage solar controller I don’t think you’d cook the batteries. Or you could do a master disconnect for when the trailer isn’t in use.

I wish my 6spd forester had a granny gear rather than the double overdrive.

I don’t understand why the suvs have to cost so much more than a base full-size. Also they jam three rows of seats in them too which would be pointless for me.

When you install your in bed house bank have it isolated from the starting bank when the engine is off. If you have a house bank then there should be no need to draw off your starting bank and no need to monitor it. Save the 712 for your house bank.

Any engine plans?

I always liked that style ford.

Lol, that sounds bad until I remember it’s the same MPG my stock 2500 gasser gets.

Looks good, you're on 35's? Do you know what your gear ratio is? What MPG are you getting with that setup?

I like what you’ve done but I’d think the cargo rack on the front would affect how much you can turn the tow vehicle?

I just want a CCLB super duty for the ~50 gallon gas tank.
