Nice, hope it works out well for you. Check engine light, eh? Yeah...I'm familiar with FUSO CEL. Nothing like the old instrument cluster Christmas tree going off.

Nice rig, I think I met Fred back when we both had our FX's in Bend and ECHQ. I used to own #20. GLWS.

You're not going to find a "beaded" rim in 19.5". The xx.5 sizing is specifically a heavy duty wheel with a different rim profile. If you want to get a beaded rim, you'll have to go to sizes like 20", 21", etc. A few different options, all with additional pain though. 1. Wheel adaptors -...

Nice catch. I wish....but still holding out.

Best of luck, enjoy the process!

Ya know, mog, that's actually a good point. They should tig on a small logo so it brands anyone that tags it. Marketing failure.

For the cOoLnEsS factor, of course!

834 miles, eh? :ROFLMAO:

Build a couple of A-frames, drive under and use chain falls to lift the camper from four points.

Should be a fun build, I'll watch from Southcentral also ?. You going with wood heat?

Have you tried doing a manual DPF burn out? By putting it in park (from what I recall), and rev it to 4k or so for a few minutes. I used to have to do that with my 2012 truck to clear the DPF. Not the exact model you have, but it was a U.S. spec Canter, basically.

Mog should buy that one.

I had parabolics on mine. Rode harsh as usual, but was a decently compliant suspension at low speeds off road. Suspension seats are a definite requirement. I also rode on conventional springs with suspension seats, and I honestly couldn't tell the difference between the conventionals and the...

I'd pass on the parabolics and just get a local spring company to build some. Get multiple leaves, get double military wrap ends. Engine upgrades depends upon the year, earlier ones can be massaged, later years will need new ECM maps with all that entails. I ran Alex wheels from Earthcruiser...

If it's really hardened, grind it and keep it cool. Mechanic should have a tool post grinder available for this, if not easy enough to do manually.

FUSO doesn't supply it any more? If they don't, I'd just get a commercial socket, and modify that.

Very clean rig, should sell fast.

There's been a thread on at least one other similar one that was converted into an RV. From what I remember, the ride wasn't exactly....compliant and it was sold fairly fast.

Might not even matter, just chop the perches off and reweld them.

Hmmm. Does the problem stay the same when stopping from all speeds? Same when loaded or unloaded? The reason I ask is I've seen more than a few of the FUSO trucks have heavy shudder under braking. Some of those were drum related, but others were suspension related.
