    Fuso FE and FG Brake Shoes NIB $0 + shipping

    Going thru my workshop I found two new in box Wagner ANA682R brake shoe sets. That is what is needed to do both front and rear. I have not owned a Fuso in over six years, and would hate to see these not get used. One box appeared to be previously opened, so I took a pic of the shoe PM if...

    FASS / Air Dog Fuel System with Fuel Bowl Delete - 7.3L Super Duty (1999-2003)

    Changing the fuel filter on an E-Series 7.3L diesel is moderately difficult because there is not much room to work with and you have all kinds of stuff in your way. The fuel bowl is buried in the valley right on top of the HPOP. I have seen some YT videos of people deleting the fuel bowl, adding...

    Swapping 2003 E450 front clip with a 2008 - Tech Discussion and Howto

    I have gathered all of the necessary parts and watched a number of YT videos on the front clip swap. I have noticed that a new hood latch and longer cable are necessary. I have also noted that most people build an adapter plate to mount the new hood latch. Has anyone done this? Will you share...

    Unicorn 4 Sale: U-Joint, Advanture, Sportsmobile on a Ford E350 w/7.3 ** SALE Pending***

    Oh I am so going to regret this. Three years ago I found this Unicorn hiding in Jaskson Hole, WY. The history of this is relatively short. In 2017, someone decided to take this base 2003 E350 cargo van and build an incredible expedition-worthy, yet very comfortable rig. First it went to U-Joint...

    Interior Wall and Ceiling Materials Advice

    I am converting a 2003 Ford F450 ambulance to an expo rig. In my previous builds (Fuso chassis), I used luan panels and 1/4" plywood for the interior wall skins and ceiling. In my first build, I painted the wood for my walls/ceiling and in the second build, I stained luan panels with 4 coats of...

    YAAC - Yet Another Ambulance Conversion

    I recently acquired a 2003 E450 Ambulance with a 7.3L with 54k miles! The cloth OEM seats look new and the cab interior is like new as well. The undercarriage is rust-free and clean. I probably overpaid due to the Covid premium, but I got a great base rig. Oh yeah, it is 2wd...ugh. My...

    2007 Fuso FG 4x4 w Custom 14' Expedition Camper (*Sold*)

    If you know anything about the 2007 Fuso FG 4X4, then you know this is that last year Fuso made a real truck. You also know that this truck can be driven anywhere in the world, as it is a pre-emmision commercial rig. This particular truck has not lived in salt air nor been subject to salt...

    Bleeding an Espar hydronic system

    Backdrop: I have been replacing and re-engineering all of the systems in my custom build box that sits on my 2007 FG. One of the changes I made was to relocate the Isotherm hot water tank. This tank is heated by an Espar D4 Hydronic system. When I relocated the hot water tank I must have...

    Anyone have a source for a rock guard for the windshield? (FUSO FG 2007)

    On my last trip, we took two rocks to the windshield. The second rock created a small star on the base of the windshield. Then the crack started. I tried to stop it with super glue and clear nail polish...every day I drive, the crack gets bigger. So I am replacing the windshield. I would like to...

    Lost tail lights and dash lights on my current trip. Any ideas? 2007 FG

    I am a week into a 2-3 week trip and just lost my tail and dash lights in my 2007 Fuso FG. I have disconnected the tail lights from the system and the minute I turn on the headlights, the 15 AMP tail light fuse in the High Current Fuse Box blows. So I thought maybe it is the rheostat, so I...

Now both trucks are running, all electrical and plumbing connections are re-established, and both trucks have the ABS light lit! No fuses are blown (checked dash and high current box fuses)...

    2007 Fuso Fg Relay Getting hot and temp gauge not working - any idea?

    Ok Fuso experts, I have two riddles to solve. I just got my new to me 2007 Fuso home with a whopping 14,000 miles on it. The temp gauge is not working, it pegs after 3 minutes of driving and the truck is certainly not running hot. Also, the relay for the oil level check gets hot and is...

    Moving a camper from a 2004 Fuso FG 649 to a 2007 FG

    Does anyone know if the mounting holes and frames of a 2004 Fuso FG 649 are the same as a 2007 FG? I just bought a 2007 truck with 13K original miles and no rust. I want to move my camper from my 2004 to my "new" 2007. I am contracting a local firm to do the switch over and they are very worried...

    What if MFTA offered an FG with the 6 sp manual transmission and 2 sp transfer case?

    If the Mitsubishi Fuso FG was reintroduced the LS 4:88, 5 speed manual, and two speed (hi low) transfer case...would you buy one? Or would you want to buy one? You still have to deal with DEF, but you also get that amazing factory warranty. Rumor has it that they are considering such an animal...

    I bought FusoFG’s 2004 FG with a custom built 13.5’ x7’ camper. The Fuso had 66k miles and he was the original owner/builder; it never saw duty as anything other than an expo rig.

    Installed the ATW blues on my 2004 FG yesterday. I weigh in at ~10k lbs evenly distributed (49/51) over the front and rear. The springs resulted in 3" of lift which was much higher than I expected. The kit was complete and the instructions were thorough. I have a whopping 25 miles on the new...

    Fuso Land Speed Record (not!) and blue sky pic of the Teton Range

    Took the 2004 Fuso FG Expo Rig down to the Tetons on Friday. Teton Pass linking Wilson WY to Victor ID has many sections that are 10% grade. We were able to maintain 25 mph on the uphill in 3rd gear & 3000 RPM and 25 mph on the downhill in 3rd gear with the engine brake. Going to 4th on the...
