Awesome truck! What an impressive spec list on the camper and you guys have done a ton of work to this thing. But begs the question, who did the original build?

Here are some upgrades over the past few weeks:

1. New Firestone W01-358-5323 airbags at all four corners (the air bags over the leaf spring perches require disassembly of the entire rear suspension, so we skipped those, which means there are two new spares and three used spares) - https://www.stengelbros.net/352-5323-W01-358-5323-Firestone-Air-Spring-Assembly_p_15947.html

2. Three new Hyundai 410W Solar Panel 132 Half-Cell Bifacial HiS-S410YH(BK) - should provide >35% more solar.

3. New Victron 250/100 MPPT to handle the new solar panels.

4. Noctua cooling fans for electrical area that are controlled by a thermal switch.

5. Coverking Frost shield protector - this really helps reduce the heat transfer thru the windshield.

To be installed:
A. Panhard bushings from Kelderman.

B. Fox shocks for rear suspension (once I get one of the piggyback reservoirs rotated).

C. Auto Agent 3 w/ unlimited DDC/CCS tunes (transfer with the vehicle).

Kelderman panhard bar bushings installed (also purchased the trailing arm bushings).
Hope to install the IVD shocks today (had to return the fox shocks because they didn’t fit).
The new solar panels are outputting >1300 watts on a warm day, which means that they should max the 100A mppt on a cool sunny day.
