Looks like fun.

Cool. What's your MOS? When did plastic foot lockers come in service? Looking forward to seeing more.

Congratulations and whew! temptation gone now.:)

Camp where there is some water and beach to play on and kids will be entertained for hours. Mine whine some at first about not having their tv/video games but then forget about them and play like I used too when I was a kid. Rocks, sticks, water, dirt all equal a good time.:elkgrin: Try...

Wow how did you get this? Hijack off.

Stick with IFS unless you are going with big big tires. If you beat IFS on rough roads it will probably take a few more trips to the alignment shop than a solid axle rig would. I have worked and wheeled IFS rigs hard (and broken a few parts) and I think for what you are doing you will be fine.

I think changing the carriers out every time for different cruising speed would be a pain, they are big, heavy, and full of lots of oil. The front one would be really fun with having to pull the front axles. Not something you would want to do in the field. Its not like you can lift that...

My bus axle ratio is either 6.17 or 7.17, very very slow. I am planning on swapping in a Cummins with 5 speed OD manual. I am also planning on going up a couple of tire sizes, poor mans overdrive, doesn't look like you have room to fit any bigger tires. My t-case is divorced too and I got a...

What, no dirt stains on that nice new riding gear.:elkgrin: I need to get cracking on my 525 and 640 repairs, riding season up here is getting closer.

The later 6.5 turbos had the crossover go to the rear and under the engine, where the bellhousing and engine bolted together. Of course they had manifolds designed for it. You probably won't be able to do much on crossover/intercooler plumbing until you get your engine back and sitting in your...

Nice, the never used as bathroom reading stock is the deal clincher.:elkgrin:

How hard is it to get to the mechanical fuel pump with all the turbo stuff? I have worked on the Banks kits on a 80's Sub and there was no way to change the fuel pump without pulling alot of other turbo stuff off for access.

Nice bathroom. You sure made the most of the space you have.

Do you know about skoolie.net website? They actually have a forum for shortbuses. Some of it is pretty good, some is a little hacked.

That queen murphy with a dinette is a pretty good idea. I am going to use it for my build. Is it a build it yourself deal or does a company make something like that? I need to get cracking on my bus build here soon. Probably this summer once I get settled.

Family friendly event or a bunch of young bucks whooping it up?:)

I am married so it doesn't matter any more. I started working on my wife this weekend about going. We will see.

I am in the planning stages still on mine but I just don't see how I can have a rear entry/mud room and a queen bed in a school bus. My main entrance will be on the side where the existing bus door is now. I am still undecided on if I will make the rear emergency door a main entrance and do...

Go to steelsoldiers, you will find lots of info and helpful members when it comes to buying a M35a2 thru govliquidation. I have never done it but from what I have read its buyer beware, you can score some really good deals and also some not so good deals. I have bought a few vehicles from GSA...

Nice. Will be watching this.
