That looks really cool. Watched a couple videos and read the FAQ's. Thinking about using the ceramic (thermal) coat on the exterior of our planned 'white' roof as an undercoat. Thank you!

Got the ceiling covered in Dynamat Xtreme, except one "test" spot. Though hot I can hold my hand on the Dynamat, the test spot is hotter. Difficult to keep my hand there long. At 5:30pm CDT Ambient outside 97° Air in the closed up parked cab — 106° Surface of the Dynamat Xtreme ceiling —...

I appreciate the help—

Looking at Post 19 the actual layout is more like this: It is getting messy. It definitely needs to be redone, and I like your way best. You are welcome to do it, though I can import the schematics and edit them, too. I'd likely use GIMP or Inkscape. What software do you use?

In the construction industry, especially Public Works projects, engineers have become much more lawyerly over the years. No one really looks at the shop drawings until the pipe fitter points out why it won't work—

We are hoping with all the insulation and carpeted panels the rooftop unit will keep us comfortable We like the Bright White and old Land Cruiser paint scheme from the 80's—

Started the sketch in post 19. Time to update and I like your version editing the schematic version to be truck specific. Painting the main interior what Rusto-Oleum calls Dark Taupe with . My interior designer is still looking for carpet. The exterior upper will be Bright White (old...

"Zeroish" makes me nervous—

We added the second in series battery bank controlled by the Victron Cyrix-ct 230a combiner a couple of weeks ago. Getting ready for the AC installation. Opened up the AC from Nomadic, their 24v X3 rooftop unit. Right in the beginning the installation manual says to bench test before...

As a 'new' member (July 2023) "the community/network" is the best part by far—

No idea, haven't added as yet. We just stripped the cab. Ready to clean up and start insulating doors and walls—

I need to look into the ceramic tint; we haven't addressed the glazing as yet. We are painting the interior a light tan, and the three color exterior a lighter, yet to be agreed upon color. The roof will either have a light colored rack or fairing to add shade and thermal separation from the...

We just stripped the cab out. Adding non truck accessory electrical off the second battery bank, second Victron 24/12v 70a, adding DynaMat and DynaCore sound and thermal insulation, painting the interior, building back wall and ceiling panels, 24v Nomadic x3 AC—

The issues are properly insulating the cab, using materials to raise the albedo, creating shade above the cab, properly powering the HVAC system whether mechanically or electrically. Looking at the products marketed to the RV market the small footprint typical DC/AC converters we see, even from...

Are you looking for a habitat or cab installation? Characteristics you may wish to consider: Decibels at max; Air volume delivered; Lowest temperature of output air flow; BTU's. Cost is likely a statement about quality of components and necessary labor to install a working system—

That appears to be within the specification for a CAT 3126b. Minimum spec for 700rpm appears to be about 11psi. 16psi is 50% over minimum, 20psi is 90%. I am more interested in what pressure we have at 1,600rpm, 30psi would make me very nervous at 1,600. Yours appears to be about 45psi near...

I think the last time I saw a M1078A1R for sale was last October, @fuzzytoaster had one. How plentiful are M1083A1R's on the civilian market?

A bargain still. Even IF you bought from a broker once gone through your LMTV will cost less and be the most capable vehicle you can repair yourself (9 times out of 10) on or off the road, maybe after waiting a day or two for a part—

We confirm that with both R12 and R13 blown (J1939 down), an M1078A1 with WTECIII the Allison operates normally. We haven't seen the J1708/J1587 side down.

I listed a set, though no interest. No surprise. Likely they will be going to the scrap yard for walking around money—
