    FRONT motorcycle rack??

    I have set my rear rack up so the door open with some of my bikes on there (the R1200RT gets in the way of 1 door opening fully). But I am considering actually splitting the back door horizontally and having the bottom 1/2 barn doors like they are now and a single hatch type door on the top so...

    Ambulance switch labeling ideas or solutions

    I bought this on Amazon for about $30. I am sure there would be 4 gang ones if you looked. For me it wasn’t worth the time to try and do them myself.

    Ambulance Camper/ Expedition Rig Conversion FAQ

    All of mine were 72”. One the 1st one I reworked it so I could fit a 78” sleeper sofa. That was a bunch of work for not a lot of gain. For all the others I have stuck with 72” bed and just hung my feet over the end if needed.

    1994 International 4700 Conversion Begins

    Cool transmission. Well hopefully it cooler [emoji301]️[emoji301]️[emoji300]️. Having the torque converter lockup should reduce the working temps.

    My Perfect Ambulance Platform?

    I would suggest changing that receptacle out to a standard 30 amp RV plug. Much easier than custom leads. Something like this. I personally use the marine versions but because they have the “marine” in the description they are twice the price [emoji848]...

    Ski Bum Truck V2.0, F450 Rough Road RV

    I am reading this on the phone so I cannot clearly see the photos. So if your problem is scrubbing of the tread in a single direction then disregard the following (actually it’s still relevant but not for the symptom you are showing). If it is uneven wear across or between the tread blocks check...

    My Perfect Ambulance Platform?

    You will have to get the dirt off the diamond plate to paint it so I would suggest getting it steam cleaned if possible then if you want it “cleaner” checkout the acid wash they use for cleaning up the aluminum on big rigs. Truck detainers will do it for a price. As for painting the whole...

    One of the best things we picked up at expo. For the outside door to the toilet. “Thunderbox Noun thunderbox (plural thunderboxes) (Britain, Australia, slang) An outhouse or latrine: a rudimentary outdoor toilet.”

    Pro-Rig V2.0 - Home Built Compact Composite Pop-up

    Thanks Matt. But just to set the record straight. All the planning and logistics kudos go to the crew from Overland Expo (Roseann, Alison and Cyan in particular). They took our suggestion (and probably the suggestions of a lot of others) and ran with it.

    Pro-Rig V2.0 - Home Built Compact Composite Pop-up

    Great meeting you guys and what an amazing and inspiring build. Also thanks for your input in the DIY sessions. Maybe we should pair up next year. I can tell them what not to do and you can tell them how to do it right. [emoji848] Just a bit of background on the Expo DIY area (hopefully without...

    Ski Bum Truck V2.0, F450 Rough Road RV

    Mine was not that thrilled either. So very cautiously I explained if I’m the one doing the cleaning/dumping I get to pick the toilet. If she wanted to pick the toilet them she gets to do the cleaning/dumping. Funny thing was listening to her showing it to people at expo over the weekend and...

    I agree on holding off on the air seats. They sit a lot higher and from memory those trucks don’t have the room.

    Mate the answer to your leaking black tank is a composting toilet. Gets rid of the freezing issue as well.

    Ski Bum Truck V2.0, F450 Rough Road RV

    "I used my super cheap ass "AC Gauge" And it read "green" pressure, but it builds to ~70 psi on the low side, then drops the compressor off, like every ~6-8 seconds." Sounds like too much gas and its dropping out on high pressure. At around 80 degrees you should be between 35 - 50 psi on the...

    Keep up. Hell you left me behind a long time ago. Looking forward to seeing this truck someday (hopefully soon). Some great ideas going on here (that I will plagiarize in the future ?)
