Do you come to West Fargo in the spring? I remember seeing a couple of T/C in the HS parking lot which is right next to my house. We seem to be too busy those weekends to see the dog show, but I like to check out the RV show in the lot! -blizz

hmmm I'd be very interested in one of those kits, I wonder how they handle driveshaft pinion angle changes when the truck is raised, I'm sure thats why its for low speed only. Let me know what the guys have to say. blizz

just thinking how a polished airstream trailer would look on a old 50's vintage HDT like a big tanker. that would be different! -blizz

If ya wanna build it cheap, heres is one of my old plans e,f or g... Go to the local rv dealership, figure out your cab to axle length and how much you'd weld on the rear of the frame to help relieve the front axle balance. Then find a used class C (or even an A if ya cut the cab section off)...

A Pete 379 would make a cool conversion. I can't tell you one way or the other about removing the sleeper, pro/cons pro- it adds a sleek aero transfer from the cab to the box, cons, you loose a few valuable sq ft particularly if you are thinking a lounge slide out. As for build it...

Welcome to the T/C forum, I'd love to see this forum grow and eventually have a rally of our own! Till then lets just keep on truck'n -blizz

What did you use to clean your roof? Mine is as new as yours, always inside yet still looks worse than yours. I'll get pictures of mine, and show you a real water pooling issue. stay tuned, -blizz

I'd like to tell you about how the RumRunner and the gas station pump curb had an intimate encounter but that post might wind up in front of the accident review board in which I would have to plea: "I was impatient because the yahoo with the pop up camper wouldn't get the hell out of the way!"...

you maybe ok, but pulling a trailer that has a big company logo which is what Wadesgames has, (I would assume that he'd want to letter the box of the E450 also) would only help re-enforce the fact that he is a duck. Our business Human Resources, Payroll and Benefits administration, our client...

my 2 cents (you get what you pay for it): I'd be very careful using something licensed as a motorhome / "not for hire" for something used for a commercial venture. You may get by all the scales and LEO's as a RV, but if you were to ever get in a serious accident, someones attorney is going to...

Thanks Gene, its been a lot of work, but its a nice diversion from work. I really like driving it, almost too much. I love slapping down 400-500 mile runs before stopping, set the cruise, the radio with a book on tape, and just let it roll. I love your matching truck and Smart. very very...

the whole shebang starts on page one on the escappees MDT forum, I try to keep everything in one place just because it turns into a mess trying to follow many different posts. RumRunner Build blizz

I think the flash made the green wires look blue, the bus-bar the whites are hooked to is insulated from the box. the wires from the splice boxes to the fuse box is the same wire, I'm not too afraid of over heating as they are connected to either 3 over head lights, or 2-3 wall outlets, on a 15...

I posted it there because it seemed to fit right into the thread on grounding of the inverters. link; Blizzards Electrical mess blizz

That old single unit one could be mounted in place of the GMC logo plate. I'm going to dig into this a bit more after I get the bathroom and electrical all back together. thanks! -blizz

check out this link to a street rodders parts house, I think its what you need for those LED's LED Flasher unit blizz

I have been attempting throughout my project, to keep a long, low and smooth look to the RumRunner, the one or should I say 2 things that really stick out or stand out is the big square signal lights atop the front fenders. I'd like to put something lower and more streamlined in their place but...

These where taken last night at the West Fargo ND dirt races, my brother and I estimated over 20 Million dollars in toters and stacker trailers. I took a few pictures, but there were dozens more that I didn't get. Long way from tossing a tool box, jack and a couple of spares in the back of a...

I have a very long list of items I bought in Elkhart that I either didn't use or I have already replaced. formentioned windows, 2 black tanks, complete shower unit, lots of plumbing fittings, a Wal*Mart sack full of rv outlets and light switches. and a few other items like some table leg tubes...

"Most vehicles with diesel engines are also exempted. However, diesel-powered vehicles that weigh more than 8,500 lbs. and are registered in the New York Metropolitan Area (NYMA) counties of Nassau, Suffolk, Rockland, Westchester, and the five counties within New York City, are subject to annual...

Move on out here to North Dakota, our legislature can't even spell inspector, unless you need your cattle, brand inspected. States seem to create an excuse to tax or hassle citizens at every turn. I've never heard of a local inspection only rule. What are they concerned with, the fellow 20...

The next time I come thru St. Louis I'll be ask'n 'bout a better place to stay. The Walmart on Floressint was not exactly comforting. :0 We had a great time at the brewery, the arch and the confluence area north of town. -blizz

sorry to hear that, prayers for brighter days ahead... -blizz

I was thinking after I typed that last post that maybe down the road if you felt you needed more room, a enclosed car trailer, insulated and carpeted with a A/C unit on the roof might make a nice companion stealth wagon. the way contractors all pull trailers now, nobody would notice. You...

The project looks like its in the "Home" stretch, man I wish you would have started off with a bigger truck, I see all this well thought out work you have put into this project, the planning, the expense, the labor. I truly hope that you will be happy in such a confided space. I know from our...
