Sweet! 6' lift is almost enough to stack them!! I'm going to TRY to send you a PM with my direct contact info.

I guess I should have specified that the exhaust will be pumped outside and I was seriously considering an outside air intake port as well. That said, thanks for the advice about supporting the weight of the piping. Could someone possibly provide.me a pic of what the factory exhaust looks like...

"If it works" is usually one of my general policies. However, since I was unaware of the already in place cooler and mindful that the ambient temp in the box may likely be at least a bit more than true outside ambient temp I was looking for a way to possibly compensate, I mean the cooler (to a...

Actually I did NOT know there was already an oil cooler in place, good to know! (I just bought it a week ago and am still learning about it). CFM calculation is an excellent idea and the kind of thing I normally would have already thought of but had not gotten there...yet?! I'll absolutely do...

No deadline. Trying to arrange to get it done maybe September? Give or take a month? Your plan sounds workable! I looked up the m1022a1. It looks like it is a wheel set made spefifically to move these boxes. Is that correct? Is the winch on the front of the tractor or on the catwalk?

So I have a 003 and it is going to be placed in a storm proof reinforced shipping container as a "Generator house". It will have both an intake and exhaust fan to move the hot air from the inside of the container so hopefully the internal temp will be only slightly more than the ambient external...

I can get a regular road tractor and trailer to go get it but once loaded I'm sure it will get stuck. Maybe someone has a 6x6 tractor that once the trailer is loaded could then hook to the trailer and get it up to the road?

Anybody have any new ideas?

That link was VERY INFORMATIVE.! It should be required reading for anyone thinking about attempting to store diesel fuel for any pronged period. Thanks much for the link!

Unfortunately it looks like that link no longer works...

This may not be the correct forum, if not, please let me know where to best post this. I have a 40' sea shipping container (Conex) filled with personal household stuff. It is sitting in a field which is now mostly loose sand (NOT MUD) and any conventional truck is absolutely going to get stuck...

Hi All. I have located and will be going to get tomorrow a MEP-003A. Questions for you: A) Has anyone used this: Inova MEP "Auto Start Kit" does it work? Is it safe and will it in anyway harm the unit? B) If I set up and run the unit and adjust the voltage and MHZ then shut it down and set...

They are selling on that "E" site for $1,200 to about $3k. I may look into that government surplus site to see about getting one but I know those can be somewhat of a crap-shoot getting a decent one or a huge paperweight. A DIY remote set up I can fully fabricate in a professional looking way...

Main problem with RV units, especially Diesel ones is the cost. Even used, a fairly recent model in decent contrition is pretty expensive. I have seen some very old ones (parts availability?) for over $1,000. The more current models are running $3-5k I'm actually watching one (2011 Cummins...

That's pretty much what I was thinking. I'm pretty good at installing wiring and making it look factory with all the proper crimp terminals, routing, chafe protection and so forth. Does not look that hard to just tap into the needed controls at the back of the main panel there and run the...

If you can find the source for the remote start that would be awesome! Mounting will most likely be solid mount to the frame unless experienced users here strongly recommend some sort of shock isolation which is doable but will increase complexity of the mounting and of course cost so if it is...

OK, 701 is loud and parts are getting hard to find. 701 is out. 831 remains alone in the field and seems to be the choice unless someone has a better alternative suggestion.

Chainbreaker, Thanks for that. I did start reading the first few pages of that post and intend to get back to finish it when I have a little time to do so. This may be premature (pending on what that thread says about the remote start) but does anybody have info on this? Is/was it a kit? Are...

I need some advise from some of you that have far more experience with these generators than I have, (Which is almost none). I drive a 18 wheeler for a living. I need to mount a generator on my truck. I do not want a gasoline unit, I want diesel. Noise is an issue so it must be something with...

PM sent..... I think... LOL.... Still looking for info to on that firetrucks/bus system.....
