The design is proven in the real world and this specific iteration has undergone finite element analysis in extreme loading and chassis articulation scenarios (it's highly customized because of the stairs). The holes in their position make absolutely no difference in the frame's rigidity.

I think you might be trying to integrate too many specific requirements into a single system, you want a dashcam with automatic traffic notifications and warnings/detection, you will need a proper dashcam like a Garmin. Remote viewing and widwangle nightvison? The best suited is a commercial IP...

Yea, things are going fast now. With such a long planning phase we had to get everything from start to finish fabricated, painted, assembled in under 6 months due to Brexit import restrictions. We ironed out probably 1000's of issues we noticed in rounds CAD meetings and back and fourth, I dont...

I am a bit curious about this whole engine/exhaust brake brake thing. I read on LN2 forum the exhaust brake is engaged with the foot button but also it engages automatically when the throttle is disengaged.. I dont have many kms behind the wheel yet to understand the concepts..

Some slight issues it seems with the fitment of the subframe will need it to be send back to the fabricators, we are also facing a delay with the water tank (it wont fit) so having to head down to the custom tank route after all. The box is really starting to take shape and we will probably get...

Hi! I was wondering if there would be any takers to crowdfund some skid plates for our diffs? I would think a galvanised circular steel design as below would be in order to help offset some of the axle weight, I think there would have to be some sort of axle support "arms" on the wheel prop...

Gertrude is out of paint this week and getting her subframe test fitted! We are very happy with the colour, it is less "green" in real life sort of like the above pic and goes very light pastal in direct sunlight.. Wheels painted too (they will prob get scratched up pretty quick) in homage to...

Close! but no :D It is actually slightly metallic... ?

It seems like the entirety of a century has passed since the last update, the world being a very different place now. I wont be petty and go into the doubling of energy prices but for the geopolitical landscape at least looking more and more hostile in Europe for sure needs a mention, especially...

I would avoid reverse osmosis, it removes all minarels from the water plus the filters and pumps are expensive. You can accomplish the same results with filters. Regarding filters, there's a great video from unicat on water and they strongly recommend not in building filter sets inline. Go...

Looking really great, the paint job looks superb! mine is in paint at the moment, I hope it comes back looks half as good!

Batteries have finally arrived as of last week and yesterday I picked up our 4*400w SunPower maxeon-3 panels! Customs clearance and the import paperwork was surprisingly easy for the batteries, this week I plan to do the VE.CAN communication testing and setup a demo charging and discharge test...

Thanks for the link llamalander! I reckon I am going to use their track and hanging rails and make my own door :D

Looking for some bathroom door ideas at the moment. We were looking at some Tambour door options but are not a fan of the plastic doors.. we would like something sliding opposed to opening so we can keep it 30% for drying and circulation (our maxxfan will be in the bathroom)

hi! I have created a little FB for those in Norway or neighbouring countries! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1065244747575161

Nice truck! Glad to have someone else on the forum attempting this in Norway as well! Welcome!

Another (while we are doing it job) is insulating the whole cab with dynamat style sound insulation. To. be installed after the cab is painted (inside and out), for now we are waiting for paint and we cant go to paint till the subframe arrives from the fabricators for a test fitting. So one job...

Thanks Jon! It seems the passenger side rust spots by the door are fairly common, was the only one found. Right, regarding the wheel bearings, it is only the front ones that need maintenance lubrication if i remember?

Congrats philcia! Welcome to the mad house!
