I did one on a 2002 Century....pretty straight forward. Pop the center horn button out with a little screwdriver. There is a nut you back out that holds the steering wheel down, just like a car. A standard damper or steering wheel puller will pop off the wheel. Just be cautious of the horn...

Anyone know where I could go to get one built like that? I would like to have something like that put on mine, I just don't have the right equipment to do so myself. Below is a picture of what I made but I would like to upgrade to what Don is showing in the previous post.

Thanks for the measurement. I figured if you are going to be over the length limit mind as well blow it out of the water! I only hope that if I do cross that bridge someday with the police that they don't park me and only ticket me. I see lots of people at our racetracks that are that long or...

Hey Hot Rod, sorry I missed your question, I am right at 83' long total. The truck is 43' the hitch sticks out an additional 1' and the trailer box is 34' plus 5' for the tongue. Steve

I appreciate it guys! Thanks

Kitchen granite I am not sure what to do with the backsplash yet. I plan to put the matching granite one in along the back of the kitchen counter, however I want to put something up the wall behind the stove at a minimum as I have to cover up a mistake made earlier that caused me to piece in a...

Granite work Started working on the granite counters over the weekend. I was able to acquire some used granite from my neighbor that he pulled out of a job. I purchased a 7" diamond blade to put in my circular saw, a 4" one for my angle grinder, a set of polishing pads, (8 different grits)...

Thanks for the pictures and measurements! I am going to shoot for a ride height around 12 inches. I have heard you can install a button to adjust your ride height up. I have a dump valve already but am going to investigate more on hitting a switch to add air to the suspension to raise it up...

Hey Don, Thanks for the clarification. The last picture shows it best I think, you are flat along the bottom the whole way. I am going to estimate you are around 14" when aired up but looking forward to what you measure. That other rig is beautiful to say the least. Having the matching...

I appreciate the pictures and any measurements you can offer. Yours looks pretty low, that is encouraging that you haven't had any issues. It might be an illusion, but are your rear cabinets slightly higher than your mid cabinets? Thanks, Steve

Hey guys, I am working on my T2000 truck conversion with 27 foot box and trying to come up with an appropriate ground clearance for the lower cabinets. My fuel tanks and bottom of the brake chambers appear to be the lowest part of the truck and are down around 10" but those are near the...

Thanks for the reply, and link to the step. I am not sure if I will have levelers. I would sure like to but not in the budget right now. I am allocating a spot for them but not going to be in there right now. My father in-law uses a set of boards that he drives the front wheels up onto...

Completed the frame work for the bathroom vanity and stained it along with the kitchen cabinets. Had some trouble with staining the kitchen cabinets. I usually work with Oak but wanted to use a different material for this project for cost and looks. I went with Poplar 1x material and birch...

Hey guys, thanks for the post. The box/van body I bought was made to mount to a truck frame already so I was able to mount the box the same way they mount them on medium duty trucks with u-bolts. I put down 3/4" thick oak between the frame of the truck and the frame of the box and then...

Thanks for the picture, that is really neat how the counter cover goes over the stove like that. It sure makes it nice having a solid smooth surface. The sink covers are better than nothing but I agree would be a lot nicer if they were flush as well. Thanks for sharing the picture. Steve

Thanks for the idea on flush mounting the oven/stove! I am going to attempt to under mount the sink as I bought a used counter out of a motorhome that has covers for it. I am still trying to find the correct sink for it. But before I mount the oven/stove I will have to look into lowering it...

Thanks guys. If I can work on it during the week, I only get an hour or two to work so it would be too hard to get the thing warmed up to work on every time I wanted to work on it. I keep the shop at 50 and doesn't take but a 10 minutes to be as warm as I need out there. So far so good. My...

Slow and steady, started getting some of the cabinet face frames built, fridge cabinet and furnace installed. Hoping to finish the shower this week and then get the toilet in. I need to start doing some wiring so I can start installing the appliances. I bought a wrecked camping trailer that I...

Thanks for the response and info! Very cool idea with putting the stacker trailer on! How did you make the frame rails work? Are they on top of our truck ones or?

Any updates on this? I have the same truck and want to go down to one tank. Not sure how that will work. Can you block off one set of lines?

Howdy, I was curious where you purchased your interior paneling from? I am ready to do mine and haven't found anything that I really like at any of the box stores. Also curious what kind of caulking you used to install your windows with? I also bought my windows from Bontragers. I ended up...

Truck paper is good one. Also craigslist works too. Use words like "dry van, cargo box, morgan, marion, truck box" I found mine on truck paper. Lots of places in the Midwest. Not sure down by you?

That is awesome! I would have never thought to do that! The top and bottom line up perfect!! What height is the bottom of the trailer, now box at below the entry door? I am building my t2000 conversion now and am curious how low I should build the skirts down to. Yours looks just right. Steve

Thanks for the tip. I sent you a message with my contact info, I have misplaced yours, sorry. I imagine the drive shafts were done separately. My original driveshaft was used, a used one was purchased and installed and they shortened another used one. I am not sold that it is a drive shaft...

I also did verify the phasing is correct of the u-joints and yes it is.
