Tundy, house and beetle build thread...and exploring.

I guess google doesnt like me linking, they work for me...

And photobucket isnt cooperating, so just use your imagination.

 

The first time I viewed it one pic wasn't displaying. After a page refresh they both showed up. Photo has just kept becoming a slow fat pig over the years so I hardly use it anymore.

 

It was working fine... then with the new phone I DL'ed the app again and it let me log in but wouldnt show any of my pictures. Now it logs me in but goes back to the login page if I hit upload. Same when trying from the computer.

 

Here ye! here ye!

 

i have 4 and 8 out the yin yang. and i have a 6 spot sitting around i think

 

OOOh. I was about to buy some 4 gauge, and a 6 circuit box... The wire I just want enough to go from front battery to the front of the bed.

 

@3378jakesr5 would you have terminals for the 4 gauge as well or should I buy those? And any idea if you have that 6 circuit box for sure?

I want to get it ordered if not since I wont have OBA until I get this done.... damn simple tasks that end up being expensive!

 

i have copper terminals and as long as i get my wire back from @CO MTN Steve here soon, i have plenty of wire. and unless that 6 block grew legs and walked away when that chevy guy was over here that one day i still have it

 

Cool, @CO MTN Steve get on that!

And lemme know what you want for that stuff.

 

do i have your cell number?

 

yeah, you should. it hasn't changed.

 

let me get this hw problem done and ill send you a text

 

My air compressor tank relocation has set off quite a lot of other projects.

Had to re-plumb it, so compressor switched to the drivers side of the bed.

While doing that, might as well add another fuse panel in the bed.

And relocate water tank from back seat to where air tank was.

Water tank cover had a 120v outlet box and 12v outlet in it...must be relocated.

Water tank necessitates relocation of hi lift...probably to the roof rack.

 

Today has been a LONG but productive day. Pictures will have to come later.

• Finished securing the water tank
• Modified the bed divider to fit around the tank
• mounted water pump
• built panel for fuse panel to mount to
• built hi-lift mounts to go on the roof rack
• made a 2' leader hose from the compressor out of copper piping with cooling fins
• relocated the 120v outlet from the water tank enclosure to the back of the center console
• removed the passenger side fridge setup
• reinstalled rear passenger seat
• removed rear drivers side seat

To finish:

• air compressor plumbing (not sure yet how I want to get to the tank from the compressor... go through the bottom of the bed or just pop through the access panel door)
• build rear drivers side platform for fridge and wiring
• Solar controller mount
• Run new wires to new panel
• re-wire water pump/topper lights

 

Fin!

Secondary fuse panel and air compressor relay on the new mount in the corner.



Air compressor tank mounted behind door number one. And new air coupler location.


Fridge was mounted on passenger side with water tank behind it. Was planning on pushing the fridge to the back and making some sort of cargo area in front of it. But this way if I want to have the cargo, I can just put the seat forward and throw bins on it. And I gained the larger storage area below/behind the seat.

 

Solar controller, and water pump.

 

Now that the project is all done. I can get back to brainstorming on how to better utilize the water setup (faucet wise). And looking into a heat exchanger to provide on demand hot water.

 

Is that water pump this one ? Seaflo 12V DC 1.2 GPM 35 PSI 21-Series Diaphragm Water Pressure Pump for Caravan/RV/Boat/Marine

It sure is. Its pretty powerful. It doesn't push a huge volume, but works well for my needs.
