We have a 18 Bar system in our truck, and I just got a MANN TB 1374/4 1703 cartridge. You might want to check the spec sheet for the cartridge, but I think it removes some oil as well as water. I think the 18 Bar dryers have a larger (M42x1.5) thread on the cartridge than the lower pressure...

That would be great. We will gladly take you up on that offer if the timing of our travels works out.

That's a beautiful lake camp spot. After camping a lot in a roof top tent, I look forward to having a nice cozy place to stay like you have. Michael

On the topic of cold starting: Our stock OM366A has an ether system to help with cold starting. I'm not sure if your truck has it, but you might want to take a look. On the engine, it looks like very small plastic tubes running to fittings on the intake manifold. There is a little round...

The kitchen looks great. Do you like your diesel stove? Michael

It's always so cool to see a habitat on for the first time.

I've just started researching water level sensor options for our mog. I was considering one of the external mounted surface gauges (like SeeLevel), but theses Votronic gauges look pretty nice. We don't have a probe mount hole on the top surface of our tank. The probe hole is at the top of one...

Awesome. I'm glad all your newest truck modifications worked. Do you still have your front axle oil tanks installed? That's about 13.44 miles/gallon. Thanks for sharing those numbers. Michael

I originally wanted to mount our gray water tank inside under our bed area, but for a lot of reasons, we decided to mount it outside just forward of the driver side rear tire. It will be nice to have it lower to keep the center of gravity low and have the shower drain into it nicely. I think...

We just put Dynabeads in our 365/80R20. We still haven't tested them out on the road, but they get good reviews, they are relatively inexpensive, and they were easy to install. Michael

We ran 395/85R20 Michelin XZL on our LMTV and we now run 365/80R20 Continental MPT81 on our U1300L. The weight (and rotational moment of inertia) difference between the 395 and 365 is very significant. I think the stopping performance difference would be noticeably worse. I don't think I...

Wow, you guys are making great progress. It's fun to see your TC panels ready to ship! Michael

We are open to other options (like using a RV compressor fridge), but we already have the CFX-40W, it's quite efficient, and it fits nicely in our floor-plan.

You guys are awesome! Thanks for the links! These seem like really good options. I'll take a careful look and report back. Thanks! Michael

We have a Dometic CFX-40W that we are putting in our Unimog expedition truck. We are looking for a slide base that allows us to slide the refrigerator sideways. We like the design of the normal Dometic CFX‑SLD3540 slide, but it slides the refrigerator the long direction and that will not work...

Cool, thanks for the info on the o-rings. I might get some and carry them as spares. Michael

I'm glad you found the problem. Thanks for posting photos of the process. It's always nice to have reference images. Michael

Awesome, I'm glad the hangar option worked out. It's nice to have plenty of space to work that is out of the elements. If you have any box assembly questions, feel free to e-mail us. Michael

Our previous truck (LMTV) was about the size of your truck. If I remember correctly, when we repainted the cab from tan to light blue, it used about 3/4 of a gallon. The back was one coat and the rest was two. A few small corner areas had three coats. We painted the inside of the doors and...

At first, I was a little concerned that the tank might stick down too far and potentially get damaged easily, but it looks reasonably low profile. That looks really nice. What seals did you use between the tank and the face of the gearbox where the banjo washers usually go? I really look...
