    Charging/Maintenance and Alternators

    And that's roughly what I have set up. When parked, one input option is solar. It can swath between the Solargizer or >> the 100w solar panel or >> shut off both The second input is the NOCO for shorepower (it's only used when the solar is "off") I was just wondering if...

    Charging/Maintenance and Alternators

    So I have several components I'm getting around to installing. These are strictly for the truck batteries and independent of the house bank. Truck is an A1R w/260a alt Dual battery mod I have the following that I use/will use: 1) NOCO Genius2 (for shore power charging) 2)...

    Show me your auxiliary fuse panel

    LOL OK, that explains it.

    Show me your auxiliary fuse panel

    I just don't recall ever seeing that. And I don't recognize the surrounding area shown (can't tell if it's inboard, outboard, underneath the PDP, etc).

    Show me your auxiliary fuse panel

    OK, I'm stumped. Where is this located?

    Show me your auxiliary fuse panel

    I was going to but no, I wanted to keep it hot w/o the ignition. I've always preferred my accessories be available w/o the ignition "on". I also rely religiously on my battery disconnect switching the cab. If I want power to anything, it's on. The fuse block on the driver side is...

    Diagnostic Readers

    I suggest taking a close look at the available space behind each kick panel. There's room, but mounting locations are a consideration (especially on the passenger side). I have a 6-gang behind each kick panel (Still haven't mounted the passenger side permanently, it's pretty tight...

    M1088 camper conversion

    I've seen the new alternative on FB. It appears to be much improved over that first guy's design (that <insert_points_of_compass_flippers> later copied and sells). By far the best solution I've seen yet (beyond the A1R designed that completely removed the problem...hey, I've never had an...

    SHC35 and SHC60 Battery

    Not sure if it's in the TM section on SS https://www.hdtglobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/TM_10-4520-264-12P_SHC60_MARCORSYSCOM.pdf

    Diagnostic Readers

    Yep. I tapped 12v at the PDC, ran a wire (in a plastic loom) thru the forward most body panel Then I added a 6-gang fuse block screwed onto the firewall on the driver side behind the kick panel. Handy for future additions, but the main goal was to fuse protect the Bluefire...

    SHC35 and SHC60 Battery

    Do you have the TM? iirc it has some trouble shooting tips per code. But I'm not at home at the moment to look it up. 18 is the ambient temp sensor I think

    SHC35 and SHC60 Battery

    Keep in mind, these things were designed to be external to the tent. There's not much quiet about them. LOL

    A1R Bumper Options

    I've had this discussion before, LOL. I knew I scribbled on an image in the past. Surprised I still had it.

    A1R Bumper Options

    There's also an aluminum version of the plate. I came really close to buying one once. But I figured it would still take damage and wasn't nearly as easy to repair. I'd love to make a steel one someday. I think bolting up the steel version would somewhat strengthen the bumper as...

    A1R Bumper Options

    My 2 cents..... Mine is an A1R with the new bumper. The original had been snagged on something while backing up (as is so often the case) but a NOS A1R bumper was in the back of the truck. And I've owned A0 trucks as well, and pulled a bumper on one of those as well...

    Handy Little Item

    That's cool. I just thrilled to have found these again. Hadn't seen them since the 80"s. They are super handy to have around in the winter.
