    Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards

    I'm in Oregon and had no issue registering my Fuso 'Motorhome'. At the time, it had a standard 14' Marathon aluminum truck body/box, with a futon bed screwed to the floor (so it was 'permanent') and sink / colman stove mounted to a countertop to meet the "permanent sleeping and cooking...

    Subframe according to the 2015 Body Builder directive.

    I guess if you want to stay within their guidelines (warranty) you could attach a subframe as per their guide and then add a sub-subframe on to that subframe with spring mounts. You might end up with a pretty high mount but with some creative thinking I bet you could keep it reasomable. The...

    Building a new bumper.................Considerations?

    You might want to take a look at John's (JRhetts) bumper on his FM260 (a super-size Fuso). It is a very clean set-up and the front guard tilts by removing two bolts. Here: http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/89454-My-Fuso-FM260-is-converging?p=1230917#post1230917 And Here...

    Stock Fuel Tank Capacity?

    In searching for rectangle tanks that use the space more efficiently then the stock round tank, don't limit yourself to just truck tanks. I found a pair of aluminum 'boat' fuel tanks locally that were size perfectly for my Fuso, hold 45 gallons each, with crossover fillers so you can fill both...

    My New Fuso FGB71 All Terrain Warriors "Universal Warrior" Slide on Mega Camper

    Of course since it is measuring straight up and not looking ahead, if you get a warning you better have very good brakes at that speed :Wow1: I like Pug's idea of backup sensors on all 4 corners of the cabin for backing into parking areas. Maybe he can add that feature to his cruise control for us

    EarthRoamer XV-JP "Northwest Edition"

    Just watch out, we have already had two builds on the Portal that they added a car or an airplane on top. Paul might just try and out do them:yikes: Great reasoning for keeping the same thread going. I for one am excited to see another of Paul's builds. I am truly amazed at his workmanship and...

    EarthRoamer XV-JP "Northwest Edition"

    I think we need to do the Expo version of a 'barn raising' and 10+ of us need to show up at Mike's house (now that his address is public knowledge :mad: ) and have a hand in making it Northwest Gen 3. I'll bring my sawall, resin, and Migwelder. Say June so the weather is nice and we have time...

    Move Bumpers

    Thanks for the link. Seems like a reasonable price, especially if he will do a non-standard (aka:Fuso) at the same price. It is kind of strange that it is $50 more to NOT cut out light holes? Can he work off measures we provided or does he need to do his own measuring? I emailed him also about a...
