I have my flooring (four boxes left over from a project that I picked up cheap), my underlayment, and I'm dropping section of electric floor heating element under the center section. I've seen some builds where they lay the floor down in the entire hab and build over it, and some where they...

..that takes 90 minutes to bar-b-que your poop. "Honey, are you cooking something?"

Yeah. Hell yeah ! I've been debating if I want to take the cab to that level but after seeing this... *from the FB "LMTV FMTV Owners Group"

Form and function. No frou-frou.

Since my bushings took a hike (literally disintegrated) I'm not sure of the order of assembly. A1R so no TM.... I'm thinking this is correct but still playing with the puzzle pieces? *the cracked/old bnushing in the upper position was originally inverted, though Anyone with an A1R know?

Since my rear cab bushings (A1R truck) literally fell out in chunks last week, I'm tossing in some hokey pucks until proper bushing solution arrives. I've had a slight hydraulic fluid leak at the latch and have the o-ring kit to do the rebuild. I thought I had bookmarked a video on the...

So I took the dog to the beach today for a swim (it's been hot as hell, damned climate change ie: summer). I was down a few miles from the crowds with nobody around for a quarter mile either direction. The dog is mostly oblivious to birds 90% of the time but oddly she will track aircraft (and...

Cool build on the outside. But that interior... What's the German word for vomit? Someone's taste is in their arse. https://www.thedrive.com/news/33457/the-action-mobil-desert-challenger-is-an-eight-wheeled-rv-based-on-a-missile-launcher

No offroad potential, but would make a very cool camper project.. https://www.commercialtrucktrader.com/listing/2007-Kenworth-T300-5017359014

(wait, since when were the 90's "retro"?)

Came out of Walmart today to find this. Great guy from Alaska.

Simple The US version has the crank mechanism off to the side. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08KY1DCQL/

I'll give these guys credit, they did a nice job with the info. The site is a little rough to surf (I'd have never seen these if not for catching a link in a random search for something). While it's a smaller vanlife application, much of what they present can be applied to larger builds...

2008 A1R Dash is going tits up. Speedo, 12v gauge, oil psi all blink out to zero (Low Oil dummy comes on). Fuel, 24v and air readings normal. Then I hit a little bump and Check Trans light comes on, then goes off, then all gauges come back to life. No funny noises, smoke, smells, etc...

Since I've decided to add propane to the build, I'm now pondering gas water heaters. The catch is the $300 budget... This one is 2.6g/m. Not sure about the "no vent technology". https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0977N2DB3 This one is 3.1 g/m with a standard 90 degree...

So it begins... Winter project: time to start putting the piles of stuff sitting in the living room into the hab. Next step will be to gut the hab, pull the lighting and re-land some of the electrical drops, paint the interior, lay the flooring and radiant heat, then get...

On the M1082 trailer there is a valve going into the air tank. It's not like the setup on the trucks, obviously. It has a single "Supply" inlet (the second is capped) which is fed by service air and a "Control" inlet that t's off to emergency and the brakes. There is...
