No blinky blinkys, but still a cool project and a cool truck.
This is a project we just completed. It was a fun one! We had to swap the holding tanks from aluminum to poly (aluminum corrodes quickly in waste water and cannot be used for fresh unless it is coated) added Tank level gauges, Added remote valves, added a fresh water flush system with electric valves, so you can flush the waste hoses with fresh water before you disconnect them, added tank heaters, a generator autostart, a seperate fridge outlet, and cut in side steps on the drivers side rear.
It was a long project that took a while to get all the logistics worked out, the tanks built, the plumbing and electric done. Not to mention dissassembly took a while.
We did a scale drawing of the tanks, brackets and space available in the truck. below is a few screen shots showing a drawing of how it would go together. This was extremly valuable when we ordered the tanks to ensure everything would fit in the existing compartment. It was an extremly tight fit, but I think it came out fantastic.
enjoy!
The Video shows it all done, with a picture slide show of in-process work near the end of the video.
