Ok I am going to pimp one of my trucks here. Checkout my signature line for the 1999 FL60 for sale.

Bump for road trip viewing opportunity details. LA - Phoenix - San Francisco through the national parks and back to Phoenix. Keen to get this one out of the yard and start on the 4WD conversion of the big red truck so send offers along.

Thanks for the input guys. Just another noobie question. I noticed some of the heavy duty ones had extra loops for hooking to. Is there any advantage to adding straps to the sides to stabilize it or what are they used for.

Search for a thread " New shoes for a fat pig " it has a lot of the details from when I changed mine years ago.

Check with Quigley with your vin. My understanding was that they used a variety of axles as the base for their builds. I ended up buying Dynatrac hubs from Chris at UJoint.

LA back to Phoenix on Wednesday the 21st if someone along the way wants it.

My you do have a fat ******** [emoji1]. Hope you have plenty of wheel well room for 20".

The problem with going much bigger on the diameter is the Fords suffer from marginal brakes at best. So now you are into hydrostatic boosters etc unless yours already has that. Also remember if you stick with duals you may need spacers between the rear wheels to stop the sidewalks rubbing...

Sounds good Lance. Are you going to be round Wednesday week?

Before you go overboard on tires I would consider just jumping up a size or 2 on the 19.5s. My experience with them on the Freightliner was 225 (1st Freightliner) was very harsh and a totally miserable experience. The 245 on the latest one were bearable but still rough. The 265s on the bigger...

Make sure you get a better one than mine. It always has a flat battery from the trigger pressing on something. If you search Amazon for a compact version with a recessed button you will be better off. Also in case anyone is wondering the advice I gave Tony was to get a fluorescent dyecheck test...

Thanks for the input. No luck in finding that Sportsmobile on their site. On the current rig (Yella one) we have a bunk builtin over the sleeper/sofa but even though it takes all the room above the window it is now a bit cramped vertically for her to comfortable sleep. In the Big Red rig we...

First of all a confession. Apart from a couple of disastrous drunken escapades I have absolutely no experience with hammocks. Inside our converted ambulances we always install a nice comfortable sleeper sofa. This work great for the 2 of us. But now I am in the middle of converting another one...

Fixed it for you.

Now that is interesting. Definitely not something for me but interesting.

They are probably the power supply fuses for the engine and transmission. It is a good idea to make sure you know the fuse rating and have spares because if one of those blows you go no where.

1999 Freightliner FL60 Camper Ambulance Conversion Oops fixed it.

Fairly tidy and a lot more open space. Big bonus for them was the ability to turn one cupboard into a bathroom. Plus the M2 cab is a whole lot nicer than the FL cab.

OK guys its back on the market. I'm too busy (actually too lazy) to start another thread so I will just kick this one off again. Will consider realistic offers.

Yeah keeping it in the family. Now we will have Big Red and the Barber Pole.
