Even though I bought a torque multiplier to handle my lug nuts on the road (the crank-operated version that Amazon sells), I decided to pick up a 1" impact for use in my garage. I wound up with a CP797. I found one on eBay at a decent price, and I was not disappointed. It weighs 30#, but...

Very nice looking electrical!

My thanks to MNtal! He "helped" me replace both my front brake calipers (he did virtually all the work, and I carried tools and handed him what he needed). My old calipers had been sticking, and I finally admitted to myself that they weren't going to get any better, so I bit the bullet and...

In many cases, the originsl Hoseline evaporator installation footprint is large enough to fit in a 5000-6000 BTU window AC, with the condenser heat being dumped through a new hole in the front of the module. It's also very common to see an RV rooftop AC on top of a medium ambulance. I saw one...

Found them! Do an Amazon search for "marine switch panel"

Unfortunately, you don't have a dual system, you just have the straight engine driven system. You don't have a 12/120 board, you don't have stand-by AC, but you may have a digital thermostat for the AC system since this was a common upgrade in place of the manual heat/cool thermostat. It's...

I measured my existing labels, then created new ones on Publisher. White lettering on a black background, then I saved it as a JPEG. Once it's printed by Walmart or equivalent, I just snip out the labels.

As far as adhesive suggestions, probably 3M has a cement (https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/company-us/all-3m-products/~/All-3M-Products/Adhesives-Tapes/Industrial-Adhesives-and-Tapes/Adhesives-Sealants/?N=5002385+8710676+8710815+8711017+8744590+3294857497&rt=r3) that would do the job just fine...

I agree on the stainless - it would do the job just fine, but it would be sbout as cold snd clinical as it could be. Oddly enough, I've seen ambulances with Corian counter tops instead of stainless, probably for that reason. If I can financially justify it, I'm using Corian; otherwise Formica...

Not a problem - I'm using the same trick we used on the railroad for slide-out equipment service racks. The rear of the equipment has a tapered pin on each side that slides into a tapered socket that is part of the support structure, and the front is bolted to the support on each side. The front...

Since my generator will be installed on slides so it can be easily accessed for service, a rubber mat won't work. I have a case of 3M noise damping material that will be applied to the compartment walls and ceiling - it's designed for this kind of an application (self adhesive, and aluminum faced).

I have a Medic Master, so the switches would be different. You could check with Select Tech Ambulance's on-line parts listing to see if they have what you need

I ran into the same thing on my panels. I used Publisher to create a word box with white letters on a black background, then saved it as a JPEG. Walmart printed my "photo", and I snipped out the inserts.

I think you are looking for a DPDT switch. It has 6 terminals, but it's commonly used with polarity reversal applications. If you buy one with the center "off:, then you should be good to go. A DPDT switch is easy to find - Blue Sea (www.bluesea.com) is a good source - check on line for the part...

When a truck chassis is purchased for conversion to an ambulance, the truck manufacturers supply an "ambulance prep" vehicle. This is done for both the ambulance manufacturers and for remounts (where an existing ambulance module (chassis) is mounted on a new vehicle. Doing a remount lets a user...

I have a LOT more Hoseline data - as you get farther into it, let me know if you need more information. I had a chance to pull some photos together, and these may help: Standard Heat/Cool thermostat Digital thermostat with relay box - this will provide automatic switching between...

The usual operating scenario for the Hoseline heating/AC system is that the whole thing is governed by the HEAT/AC switch. This is usually either on the driver's panel, or on the action station panel. Once that switch is ON, then the system is controlled by the thermostat. Some systems use the...

Like the Johnny Cash song said: One Piece At A Time....

Been a great week! I bought CowPig's take-off Hoseline evaporator for my buggy. Instead of trying to stuff another evaporator into the same already-crowded space my existing evaporator was in, I had decided to build a totally separate 120 volt AC system for my module. I had already bought a...

Totally beautiful!
