What an interesting build–

What towbar and baseplate do you use to flat tow your Ford?

Old thread I know @olly hondro; wondering what use case you designed your rig to accomplish? You moved the rock grabbing tanks where?

That answers my question—

So, that door opens a few inches? Ingress/egress for folks or just the cat?

We added soundproofing over insulation under the doghouse in the engine compartment. Cut down on the engine noise significantly. Then we mocked up and installed brackets for our new seats. Once we are sure we like their location and height we will clean them up and make them pretty...

The Arduino controllers are very simple to program without diagnostic gear; the Dana Spicer units are more robust and easy to program with diagnostic gear. Both use the original wiring and air connections. We have both boxes and so far prefer the Dana Spicer units simplicity while driving...

Is he asking to remove the pressure valve off the wet tank's side? Or the PCU solenoid valves behind the passenger side foot kick?

I like the danforth anchor style. Flat stowage, self setting, easy removal—

On our M1078A1 with power and 'H' and 'M' highway pressure is 55#–

In our case replacing R12 and R13 (under the PDP on P250) resolved our ABS and J1939 faults. When we purchased our unit no circuit breaker was in the ABS fault light slot. Adding one brought the light on. Attempting to use the the diagnostic plug to read the ABS faults led use to the...

I agree with @GeneralDisorder, if you are concerned, block heater. We owned CAT equipment years ago and ran all through moderate winters with a spray can of ether. Black smoke and 'marbles' each morning up and down the line. Just leave at idle until 'marbles' pass. You'll be waiting for air...

Of course, our PDP lid labeling, the PDP, and schematic don't all match— According to the lid label: 24v Ignition CB 81 may also be a spare—

We found the J62 plug (schematic 9/232) at the cab's back wall does have power when the rotating (CB 38, K13) light is switched on. So, at least that circuit could become an aux lighting circuit very easily—

Looking through the schematics (20040129 version) at what each CB is connected to has me rethinking some things for new dash power: door locks, power windows, power mirrors, dash camera, and back up and side cameras. It appears in our M1078A1 we have a number of totally unused circuits in both...

Received a Blue Sea split bus fuse block we plan to mount on the rear wall connected by 1/0 wire from the PDP 24v BAT (X1) terminal, (using the route the radio wire took between the doghouse and seat). Will have a 1/0 branch to a Victron Orion DC to DC 24v to 12v 70A converter then 4AWG to...

It doesn't look like there is much clearance between the habitat and the rear tires. Is there enough up travel articulation for traveling uneven surfaces?

Kayaking—

I am thinking about running two split bar boxes: (12v battery and ignition; and 24v battery and ignition) to the back wall. Other than diagnostics like a Bluefire and a couple of charging ports (which I plan to relocate off the existing 12v battery plug in the passenger footwell) I don't have...
