Hi Buffalobwana,
That's the best idea I saw yet and I was not aware of the Total Composite box. I will take a closer look at it. Thanks !!
For the garage, the plan is on scale and the size of the car is a Smart, so it's small. I don't want to have a trailer in the back. So the frame will be...
Here’s a short update
New plans. My girlfriend just got to do them. Explanation after...
The bed is still over the cab (software bug in the design)
We went to another suspension shop and he proposed about the same for the suspension, but he asked why you don’t want to extend the frame and...

Probably from the 1st and 2nd your hard shifting ???
Mine is doing the same, but when you are at about 1600RPM, get the throttle pedal to the floor and then it shifts smooth.
But I need to go to a shop to see also

For the front suspension, the drawing I put is from a catalog parts (commercial truck design). The guy told me he has to built the arm from scratch to make sur it’s strong enough. So probably with some high grade steel like QT100. The axle will be above it to have enough displacement.
Tell me...
Hi,
Finally, Big Green is out of hibernation!
I went to see a suspension shop and he proposed me to put a simple air ride custom suspension on the front
(Similar to this)
And for the back, just 2 air spring balloons and remove all the leaf springs
(Red is the frame [emoji12])
That’s the...
Thanks for the suspension advice. I will get the truck out of hibernation this weekend and go to a suspension shop to give me some ideas.
For the box,?I prefer build it myself. I will be able to optimize every inch in space. Important because it’s a retirement project and you always need more...
I just did a few more drawings with another free software.
Now, I'm not sure for the container. Probably I'm gonna build it by myself.
Real drawings to come, missing some times at the moment.

I’ll get you back with drawing. I think it’s 70” pass the rear bumper. The frame is at 48” (if I don’t have Alzheimer)
This drawing was when I had another good plan of putting a Hook Lift to have an easy loading/offloading for the container. If I remove the Hook and the spare, I think it won’t...
For the bike, I planned to have a small H-beam with an electric winch. Not sur yet.
The suspension is too tough on the truck and will get rid of everything inside the camper. I will get big green out of hibernation and go to a suspension shop. I’m looking to have Air Ride or less leaf springs...
Very good point. And maybe I will have an electric motorcycle to save the planet [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]

Hi there,
Here's my retirement project. Add a mini-home built in a 20' container and put that on the 923A2-ROPS.
Have you ever seen a container on a 5-ton ?
Off course, there's a few mods to do (suspension, cab, heater, etc...) :-D
Here's a few plans I made. The only bug I have with the free...
Here in Quebec, we have 2 taxes. One is Federal and one Provincial.
The Federal is paid at Customs on sale price. I had to give them a proof of payment (wire transfer) so they see it's the right price.
The Provincial is paid at Vehicle Office, which is usually the market value of the vehicle...
