so much for being a team player hey john

So now im somewhat cashed up the decision is what to buy I have to spend dollars fast, if I don't the dragon will start buying stuff for the house ( a waste of money) now I know this is a truck forum but seeing as you guys are the only ones who's opinion I value (read the only ones who'll talk...

A sad day spent the weekend moving into a house the van now lies empty and deserted and today was sold the dream comes to an end for me anyway, the bloke that bought the van is heading to Darwin next week raise a glass (or a can of yellow) to a good old bus that served me well

I compensate uneven load with the wife :victory:

Shannon are they holes or hose connections a lot of truck tanks have remote breathers so youd have a pick up, a return and a breather

Shannon so the weight would be that of the tank and brackets + (260 x .84) good J brackets should do the job unless your planning on corrugating the thing to death

if your talking about "towing" as in on a trailer then its GCM (gross combination mass) which is about 10.5 tonne for a 6 tonne fuso (in OZ anyway) GVM (gross vehicle mass) is the tare weight of the truck plus load

go over the cab Shannon you could sleep a dozen kids over the dual cab

Nice Jeffery and here we are on Alans thread talking about legs for slide ons all you need is a winch and gravity problem solved

Great news, Ill wait till you start then learn from your mistakes (that's just the kind of guy I am) Was thinking of doing a small water tank (40L ish) under the sink within the body, already have 100L between the chassis rails have found out from my travels if your frugal with water it will...

The secret is get rid of the kids then you only have to accommodate yourself and the cook I put mine in the navy because its now illegal to send them down the coal mines So Alan are you building your slide on from scratch Ive been looking into suitable jacks and cant seem to find anything that...

Would that be a Freudian slip :) if that's the case - happy to be categorised

Ok Alan if you insist I was going to say I cant wait to see what it looks like once you've put some alloy singles on it I was also going to go down the beige road but owen beat me to it but I thought Id leave it to the rest of the rabble BTW have you noticed the rabble is getting bigger - this...

Nope I got nuthin !!!

Well after being in the navy for 30 years I can tell you a Navy Shower consists of standing stark naked along with 130 other blokes waiting for your turn to use 1 of 6 showers Cant see that happening in a GW Or are they really that big inside ?? and as far as the concern over loo's we never had...

height limitations maybe, but so long as it wasn't taller than 4.3m (the legal height of a truck trailer) you'd be ok in suburbia WRT C of G so long as there was minimum weight up top it would be ok But getting back to the naked men sitting on loo's with open doors (im surprised Alan didn't add...
