    Wanted -- Empty 26' box on class 8

    I'm looking for an unfinished conversion in which I could do all the interior construction myself -- something around a 26' empty box built on a class 8 truck chassis. . . if anybody has anything like that sitting around, please do let me know. Thanks, Walter walter@timeofyourlifemedia.com

    Exterior trim material

    Howdy fellas, What sort of material is generally used to trim out the corners of a conversion box? Mine was done with some aluminum diamond plate that is pretty ugly, and I was thinking about pulling it off and putting something a bit shinier on. The other problem is that whoever built my box...

    Roof sagging around AC

    Hey guys, Thanks for the advice, and sorry I've taken so long to respond. Unfortunately, there are no roof panels on the inside of my box to remove -- the roof seems to be constructed of a sandwich of aluminum, foam, and then some sort of plywood veneer on the inside. This all appears to be...

    Roof sagging around AC

    WIck, Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, contacting the manufacturer isn't really an option -- I am the third or fourh owner of this vehicle, and I have no idea who the manufacturer is. It doesn't look like anything I've ever seen, either. The roof appears to be pretty flimsy. I can...

    Roof sagging around AC

    Howdy, The roof of my conversion sags a good bit around the air conditioner, probably about 3 inches or so. This wouldn't be a big deal, except when it rains and the truck is parked on level ground, water pools around the AC and eventually rises to the point of entering the cabin through the...

    Higher gear swap?

    Hey Marc, Yeah, that was me with the rear air ride issues. I ended up taking the truck into a shop for some other issues, and they had their spring shop take a look at it. They ended up adjusting the height on the air ride and replacing the shocks, which were very worn. I haven't even been...

    Higher gear swap?

    Howdy guys, I've got a 1995 Ford F-800 with a 24' box I've converted into a motorhome. I'm not sure what this truck was in it's former life, but it's geared pretty low. It has a Cummins 5.9L and 6-speed transmission with a 2-speed rear end, for a total of 12 gears. The thing is, I've never...

    Ford F800 suspension

    Hey guys, Thanks for the help. I'm actually away from the truck right now (for once!), so I don't have access to a lot of the information you're requesting. I do know that there are no controls and no dump valve in the cab, and the air bags lose only a negligible amount of pressure after a...

    Ford F800 suspension

    Hi Mark, Thanks for the advice, and I'm glad to be here. I don't really know too much about the suspension system, actually; I bought the truck used and it came with no information whatsoever. I can tell you a few things, though. There are two air bags (one for each wheel in the rear), and...

    Ford F800 suspension

    Howdy guys, I have a 1995 Ford F800 class 7 truck conversion, and it rides very rough. It has rear air suspension, but I'm pretty sure the shocks are worn out. So, I'm looking to get new shocks; would there be a different grade of shocks I could use that might make it ride smoother? If so...
