I'm pretty sure that in Texas it's illegal as f*** (ie: strapping a boat gas tank under your car). But our DPS Troopers are always looking for stuff strapped under vehicles. Something like this croossing a checkpoint like Sarita?.....yeah, "Sir, I need you to pull over to the inspection...

Here' the little FB group I read. https://www.facebook.com/groups/419122475590648/

I'm going with a little Chinese diesel heater. I've followed them for years and with a few minor tweeks they can be made both safe and dependable. For a couple or three grand more you can get a Webasto. You can, I can't... :p

Seriously though, some of their mods are really cool. Some are sketch-af.... If this guy ever has an exhaust leak below deck, he'll get the long sleep...

Out of sight, out of mind I guess. This was from one of the FB CHinese Diesel heater groups. 1) Van life hippies 2) SEE #1

I suspect it not a diesel vic.

Yep, that's how I did it with my A0. *note that the transducer can be oriented in different angles depending on the orientation of the unit it screw into (ie: it can sometimes be at the bottom or sides)

85 psi for HWY as well..

Here's one with an M725 https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/rhino-5-4-rv.203379/ There's a guy in here with an M997 who was looking to make his rear doors. If I recall he was doing a ambo conversion. I'll see if I can find it. There's a few over in the FB groups as well...

Plastic tanks are used in more vehicles than people suspect. I remember the first time I pulled a tank Jeep to install a new fuel pump. Just a plastic tank with a plastic shield. But this application just seems far too vulnerable to puncture for my tastes. ymmv

One side unlatches and tilts down.

Yep

What could possible go wrong? Seriously, I was amazed how many people thought this was just a brilliant idea. The guy was poo-poo'ing any suggestions to add any puncture protection.

Several here have done ex-military ambos conversions. From old school to new...

Came out slick ! Great job.

Shouldn't be needed. But both worthy power sources for other equipment.

Pretty slick ! Wish I had your shop. :) I didn't like constantly replacing the NOS retainers (especially at $50/ea surplus value). I tried the metal rod keepers that the A1R came with. They are sort of like carb rod keepers from the 50's-60's. They worked but were a total...

Throw some hockey pucks in there temporarily. Cheap and easy overnight fix. I've been running them as a lower for months now awaiting the bushing order to arrive. Inspection shows that they are holding up fine. Granted, I'd not use them as a permanent replacement (we had an old mechanic...

The look pretty clean. And I was able to reuse the cab bushing washers and sleeve on the rear bushing point (A1R) which is most exposed to the elements.

Another reason to reuse the ones in my truck. :)
