    *SOLD* 4WD 2002 Ford E350 7.3L Super Duty Ambulance Conversion to Camper (4 Season!)

    Hey @Ambolorian, have you ever gotten any error codes with your Lavaner? I have the same model, same controller and I'm getting a code sometimes. I have yet to reach out to Craig, the Lavaner guy. Just curious, love the build. GLWS.

    JK/JL Jeep Camper Concept

    Oh I knew that much. Maybe you said it in the video? Me and a couple of friends have been wondering how you would lay it out though. I usually fool with vans and all the pop top loft beds are sections from one side to the other that you can stack in the back in camp mode and some are done...

    The Lump: Long Distance Comfort in LHD

    You are correct. Not a problem for LHD's. A close friend of mine has been anxiously awaiting his LHD Grenadier for a few months. We've discussed this at length. I watched ASPW's video above and I think it is absolutely valid concerning RHD models. It seems like Ineos is going to have to...

    It's awesome. What's your plan for bed layout?

    Gladiator Pop-Up Pass Through Camper Build

    I've seen them on Amazon for awhile, as in a couple of years. My impression was that they were just another cheap CDH manufacturer but the cases on these (at the link you posted) look pretty impressive.

    Gladiator Pop-Up Pass Through Camper Build

    I'm surprised it hasn't been discussed before. Many people are religious about running kerosene, etc. in these to keep them clean. I have been sleeping 6 mos. a year in my work truck for 6 years with run running all night (an Espar) and have had 3 or 4 other ones in overland rigs as well as a...

    Gladiator Pop-Up Pass Through Camper Build

    So if I'm understanding you correctly you'll build a little tower for it to sit on so you can route the exhaust straight out the side in to the fenderwell? If so consider one of these...

    Anyone go from LC to Wrangler?

    On a new Wrangler? Very doubtful. That's highly overhyped. Keep in mind how popular these things are in general. Wranglers are EVERYWHERE. I don't know the numbers but easily one of the most popular vehicles in America for years now. If death wobble was that big of a deal it would be much...

    Anyone go from LC to Wrangler?

    Bummer, we have a 21 Willys 4cyl automatic and I wish it had the 4:10 gearset and better axle. But, I had a 2016 3.6l 6mt before it and hated it. The manual Wranglers feel SO much slower than the autos in everyday driving and I'm historically a manual fan. That is the only manual vehicle I...

    Lithium Ion jump pack failed today during a jump, looking for ideas on what happened?

    It's a lithium battery after all. IMO, even though I have lithium in my rigs and would love to buy a Tesla if it fit my life, I still hold lithium at arm's length.

    E-350 Cutaway with Total Composites Box

    Probably the best use of space I've ever seen in a van (ish) conversion. I dream of having square walls and a lift bed someday. In case I missed it, do you plan on color matching the body to the cab? I love the cab color, it would be very cool, however maybe not so cool in August. Also, are...

    Anker EverFrost Refrigerator Battery Recall

    I really like Anker's products. I had no idea they made a fridge. I'll be checking it out. Thanks for sharing!

    Portable Propane water heater inside RV

    I have an honest answer which emcompasses thrift, value and common sense: - I'll use any propane or other fuel appliance wherever I need to knowing that it's a bad idea to do so in an enclosed space without open air space above and proper ventilation. - But I won't go to sleep with one...

    Welcome to the 10-year club

    Yep, me too. And the one I have now is hardly different than the one I started with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yes Another Ambulance Build

    It's a 7.3. You can tell by the back of the engine that it's a diesel and the year makes it a 7.3. Nice find, and nice color for an Ambo. Do you plan to keep it that way?

    Microwave for truck camper

    That's a great video, thanks for sharing Dave. The cheapest inverter microwave I see (on Amazon) is a 900 watt Emerson at about $110. I am willing to pay that for the technology but I've got to answer a question asked by the OP many years ago. It's hard to kill a $30 Walmart 700 watt...

    Off Road proof oil storage

    I keep kitchen oils and bottles of non-perishables like hot sauce in socks. Yep, socks. Works great, you can always find a good sock to fit any bottle. That way you keep the flavors as the maker intended, not something you can do with plastic bottles. I also line shelves and drawers with...

    2017 Fuso Canter FG4x4 Expedition Camper Project

    I recommend the truck pumps for any oversize/overheight RV or rig because it's easier to get big vehicles in/out of them and you can buy bulk DEF much cheaper than the 2.5g containers. However, if your tank is only 2.5 gallons and obviously this is never going to be a daily driver it's likely...
