Well the last few weeks have been busy. But a lot of it was under the deck in places I wasn't going to photograph. But I did manage to get both the fridge and freezer onto good quality slides and have been running them fulltime for the last week keeping drinks cold (need lots of hydration with...

I replaced the rubber accordion boot between the cab and the box last week. Fitting it was fairly easy but I haven't yet actually glued the overlap together yet. Looking to the forum for some collective wisdom on what product would be most suitable. And just for information the best place I...

I have a spare switch out of an older Ambo which will do what you want. It is a on-off-on polarity reversing switch. Positive and negative to the ends and output for solenoid out the middle. But if you only need a momentary action and not constant supply you could consider power window...

You have to check the stud size and the lug hole diameter to make sure they fit your wheels. They didn’t fit on Bob’s 8 lug Freightliner. https://www.amazon.com/SPC-Performance-32111-Wheel-Centering/dp/B005BHRKYQ

Not sure of the number and Old Yella had 8 lug axles not like that fancy baby pray of yours [emoji1]

I used the centramatic disks on the front of the Yella truck and they seems to work well. Not sure about helping long term wear but they did help with front end vibration.

Try searching for stainless ball transfer rollers. For a custom tank consider teaching yourself how to plastic weld (then come and teach me [emoji1])

Bummer about the 12v run. That’s where the Ambo guys are lucky. If you can work out where the frame box is then you get double thickness and no cables.

Older International truck specification as an example of what the manufacturer service manual will say : TRUCK SERVICE MANUALTM 5-4210-230-14&P-1FRAMESb.Preheat the frame rail along the crack area to500-600 degrees to burn off excess oil or paintthen permit heated area to cool to 200degrees or...

I forgot about that ? I wish it was still sitting in my driveway.

Gotta love the internet. Easier for other people to find photos of my truck than I can in my photo storage. [emoji1]

Too late now but for the future you should check the vehicle builders guide for your truck. Welding onto the frame/chassis is usually not a good idea.

Remember to drill little drain holes in them. I didn’t on the first lot and the gummed up fairly quickly.

Are you looking at drilling and tapping the 10/32 screws or just drilling and using 10/24 screws and nuts. I don’t like rivnuts due to the way they protrude above the surface they are going in. They can provide a leverage point that increases the load on the screws. Also stainless rivnuts and...

No pics of how I actually mounted them but here is the rollers.

Make sure you put rollers on the corner of the door. Especially on the ambulances. I used stainless roller spherical bearings used on table conveyor systems for the Yella truck. It was much easier on the fabric. Now you guys have me over thinking a fixed awning again. I was thinking of...

If the pump is the same as mine the inlet comes straight into the end of the pump and the outlet comes off the side on a tangent. I will be pulling mine out later today and will try to get you a photo of what I am talking about.

Usually dealer only type stuff. I have never worked on the GM line of products so I cannot really offer granular advise on them. But on most of this stuff you would be amazed at the configuration offerings. Trouble is the more things you can change the more things you can stuff up. Like when my...

Having had an F45 on the yellow truck for a while I am looking at other options. They are a tree magnet and being so high up you don’t get much shade in the right place. We took ours off and carry an ezyup thing instead. At least it always in the right spot to give coverage and is a lot quicker...

I think you may have a terminology problem. It is not really a positive ground system. It is just the the ground of the controller is not tied to the negative but instead floats at a voltage above 0. Hence the reading you got of 7v. If you really need something to put you to sleep sometime...
