I'll be having one made by Aluminess, if anyone wants to get a ballpark price. I was going to do the same design that's commonly seen in Australian trucks.

Yep, much easier to tilt the cab first. I wonder if it's the same mechanism through all the years?

Good for you guys, I had a chance to look through it at OvEx West and chat with the builders. Looks like it'll be a good rig for you.

Exactly what I'm going to do with the final EC build...going to register it in Oregon instead of California. The tax difference between the states will go towards getting land in Oregon...win/win situation.

Interesting....I'm in the San Diego area, started the process at AAA. Had to, of course, do the CHP and DMV inspection, but I finished the paperwork at AAA. Was a couple of years ago though.

Don't forget to plan for sales tax too........ As to required forms, your best bet is to be an AAA member, and use their services instead of going in through DMV. You will probably have to go through the CHP inspection, still....and be prepared for all sorts of disbelieving looks when you...

Just checked tracking, it's sitting there in your terminal waiting for pick up/delivery

Maryland Metrics might have what you need, but I also use a local hardware store that has a very good selection. How many of them do you need? Also - 30 degree countersink?

Wherever that is, I don't think I'd try it in the Duonic FUSO, unless I had no other choice.

When we went through the Fresno ATW facility a few months back, there was one other being staged for a build - so that'll make three.

I wonder if those could be fitted to a later model?

Just going through the "expo rigs spotted" thread, and Gahi took a pic of this one:

Back to an old question I've had - is the design of the Aus windshield stone guards due to function, or legalities? Why not have the stone guard extend all the way to the top of the screen? Or are hits just not that common higher up? Why are they curved, or even some that I've seen are...

Look great! Hay Allan, would you be interested in splitting shipping charges so I can get that MUTSIII unit out to you, and see if it works on your truck? Maybe then send on to Jon? Check out the OBD thread, I posted the offer there.

Ski - good chance that the software will work, but the problem is the interface unit. According to my ever so helpful Chinese seller (NOT MY FAULT! NOT MY FAULT! I SOLD YOU GOOD PRODUCT! PLEASE RETRACT NEGATIVE RATING!), the software was updated through the 2013 model year. OK, so lets do...

Probably the same one that failed to read my 2012....I had a few posts detailing what went wrong with the seller's advert claims, and various other things. nick"- Yep, FUSO and Mitsu have proprietary coding, which is the real issue. I'm sure there's nothing particularly special about what the...

Nope, 2010 (2011?) + has not much to do with OBD...MUTSIII is pretty proprietary. I'll be buying the mitsu MUTSIII and carrying the unit along for the far North trips we have planned. Hopefully we'll be able to get some folks to try out the earlier MUTSIII unit and software I bought a while ago...

ARG....it'd make a perfect Haflinger transport for meets. Tell you what...I'll trade you a M35A2 Deuce, an XR416 thumper, a VW squareback project, two 6x6 AATV's (none of which currently run), the Subbins, and four boxes of Unimog toys. Deal? :D I'm actually serious in that if it's still...

Great looking rig. If it was a few months from now, I'd probably be giving you a call.....but who knows? Maybe it'll still be around by then! I'm surprised it's lasted this long, honestly.

Nope, not yet. I blew it at OvEx, had a chance to try it on a few trucks, but couldn't coordinate with folks. I'll be dragging it along to OvEx this year, even if I don't bring the FG, maybe we'll have a better idea after that.
