Well, plugging away at various systems....and by God do they take all sorts of side trips. I hate electricals. So...whatever is done....is done, I'm driving out Thursday morning at 0600 from Southern California. I look forward to meeting all of you out there, and having some great times. I'll...

That's the stuff to use when you're homeless, right? :ylsmoke:

I think you're going to win the turning radius contest. :sombrero:

dammit dude.....2008? :sombrero:

Nice, clean install. Do you notice any buzziness from the sheet metal, or did you also use a dampener of some sort?

Front bumper lighting...BD and Rigid Finally got the last Rigid flood lights into the bumper. Had to fab a couple of delrin spacers, but it should work out fine. The light bar is a Baja Designs unit, one of their combo setups. Inset round lights are Rigid Floods, and angled off the sides of...

Very cool! Since mine is a flatbed it'll be interesting to see what the ride differences are like.

B., darlink, I've been trying to locate you after our mutual friends went on their long vacation. The chair has been against the wall for quite a while now, and luckily the plutonium is still there in that hidden spot we know about. You can ask John (with the long mustache) if you need to have...

Thanks Dan...I wonder if that's the same as the downloadable one from the fuso tech site?

:clapping:

So the subframe support members aren't flexy either? Or is that just a temp clamping arrangement? Looks like it's coming together fast, definitely exciting!

Quick question: What kind of synthetic line are you going to be running? I've also got a 16.5ti, and I seem to remember that it stated somewhere in the paperwork not to use synthetic due to drum heat issues.....

LOL, yep, quite the list. I think there are lots of us scrambling to get things done. Really looking forward to seeing your build in person.

Nice! Where would that be?

Regarding the date info on the fusotech site...it carries info up to 2013. I see that Fuso is right on top of things, kinda like M-B is (/sarcasm). I say that because I emailed back and forth to Fuso U.S.A. and one of their tech folks said they would change that to reflect the correct info...

Yah, I like the RC too..plenty of room for expansion. I think they're basically a garage outfit right now, but they said that the 2nd version will be coming out later this year, with more functionality. The app is pretty basic too, right now, but that's OK also. The spod is definitely higher end...

Gonna be a great truck for someone....

So...seats are in. Mostly. I'm still chasing some air leaks, but I'm replacing the blue line with an Eaton product that's DOT rated for brake lines. Hopefully that'll solve the air leaks. I don't think the other line has thick enough walls, but I'll know by Sunday either way. I did a quick and...

For some reason this kinda reminds me of a certain U1300L mog that's out there....? Somehow...that truck took a bath at one time, and fuso isn't fessing up. It might be beyond comprehension...but then again I've seen dealers do plenty of things that are beyond comprehension. Might well have...

Go to http://fusotechinfo.com/. There's a one day term that you can sign up for, $25. It's worth it...especially since the service manuals are on it, TSB's, and other things. Log on and head over to the library...which reminds me I probably should do an update also. The other thing is...how is...
