Got my M109.. And the fun begins

I may just be paranoid but that looks almost exactly like the one that was up in Roseau last winter the guy was selling it for $6000. Do you know any of the history on this truck about that? But that looks almost like the perfect man cave mobile-station. Hats off to you my good man!

That is absolutely flat out awesome. I've never said this before but I want a 109 now.

Nice cabinets. I'm not in my M109 right now, and it might be obvious, but how did you find the studs to mount the tv mount to the wall?

The tv does not weigh much so I did not think much about mounting directly to the studs. I may reconsider that as there is some play due to metal flex (not much but enough to notice)

I did not know there is a doppelganger of my truck. Cool

Well, if you bought private I'd like to say I'm not crazy and that's the same one.

looks very nice! My friend had plans to get a 109 and convert to a camper. Unfortunatley around here on the island most RV parks have banned MVs

Where this thing can go you can flip off the fancy pants RV's as you drive by

Sounds discriminatory.....if you got rid of the OD/camo, how would they designate it an MV?

Got a little bit of work done today

Moved the radio tray and hard mounted one of the 2m/440cm radios. Plenty of room left for another radio and scanner.

Got a shelf installed over where the tool chest sits. No I will not leave the coleman fuel up there. It is just for reference so you can see how much space there is.

Moved the cabinets over some to leave space for the small fridge. Also moved the first aid kit so that I used the space more efficiently.

Got the 24v LED aux lamps hard mounted to the bumper.

Next on the list is to finish out the wiring for the lights. Then on to the other many projects.

Yes.. but if you are lucky you can find them at a more reasonable price from time to time.

 

[quickfarms]

how is the camper conversion coming?

 

[CMXterra]

how is the camper conversion coming?

It is going well.. Getting more done than I thought I would seeing as it is winter up here. But thanks to Al Gore (aka global warming) it has been nicer up here than usual so I have been able to get more done.

 

[CMXterra]

Got the aux lights wired in. Wow.

You can see in the images how much difference there is between just the regular headlamps and with the LED's

 

[CMXterra]

Scored a set of the Truck-Lite LED headlamps on Ebay for 280.00

So those will go on soon. Will post pics.

 

[CMXterra]

Woot!

 

[CMXterra]

Update:

Got the LED lights installed. OMG that was easy.

Now the hunt for the other LED lights begins.

 

[CMXterra]

I got the fridge installed along with a bottle opener Put a small carpet runner in front of the cabinets and did some re arranging of the wall storage so make it so you were less likely to bang your head.
