    Yep. Hyperthermia and dehydration.

    Mitsu Fuso Camper examples

    Nice looking rig. Looks like it's got some lift going on with the suspension. I'm kinda curious how that upper side window is set up - it's got what looks like a latch, so I wonder if you can open the entire thing for good weather? I don't suppose you got any other details, did you?

    Day One...not that this is going to go fast, or anything

    Seat order numbers... Here you go, John: Actually, here are all the parts #'s (however, these are internal parts numbers for Industrial Seats dot Com, they don't cross over, but if you look at the national seats site you'll see that you can tell which is which) NS-00452.51 Seat, Upper 2 tone...

    Build Status update Fuso FG140 4X4 2013.

    Regarding the hushmat - how much did you wind up using? I'm in the same boat, planning to do that within the next couple of months.

    Seat bases I got were 283.45 each, so if you're getting them for $150 each, nice buy!

    Diving in Head First!

    You're right about the design parameters, basically the same thing for tactical vehicles. They're designed to do the mission, and personnel comfort (at least in the older vehicles), were a distant contender in the features list..... I'll be going on a bit of an off road run this weekend...

    Diving in Head First!

    With only about an inch before I hit the stop, I hit them quite a bit during any drive. Still pretty jarring, but tolerable for now. I think with weight though, these might well settle down even closer....giving an even more jarring ride. Air seats will help, but I'm still thinking there's...

    Hay, Allan - quick question: How much clearance do you have between the front bump stops and their contact point? IOW, free upwards travel?

    Day One...not that this is going to go fast, or anything

    I say potato, you say potatoh :sombrero: Receivers, or accumulators....either way, an air tank. What I'd really like to have are some Recaro air ride seats that are low profile, fully adjustable, heated and cooled...oh, and have a massage option. For under $500. Yeah. I'd like that. I've...

    Yep, sad that he went. I wouldn't be surprised if it was heat related though.

    EC - will you be offering that custom carrier as an option in the future? I'm definitely interested, going to be running a TW200 normally attached to the rig....

    Protecting the Front Axle Rubber Boots

    I'd be interested in retrofitting them to a more modern FG also, 2011 and newer etc. I can foresee creosote bush branches just punching through those boots lol.

    Day One...not that this is going to go fast, or anything

    This week...time to order some seats. Looks like National is the best choice, so that's what's going to go in. I opted for an ARB compressor, I've got a few old tanks laying around from past truck projects, so those'll be the accumulators. I just need to call a few of the potential camper...
