Yes mine had only fiftyish thu miles on the clock, one owner, a chap not far from me bought it and fooket it up inside<black & decor man>, had to strip and start from scratch, miles were low and only 10 years old but sat in a warehouse for 5 of those, ex-library bus. Was well worth spending 4...

Mine is a old 59-12 bus 2.8 turbo and built like a tank, but if it has a cam belt then change it, make sure its got a high ratio diff if r wheel drive, if front im sure it will be ok, do look over the electrics as this is the weak point on i ty trucks.

Back to workies builder van, na constructor seems more professional.

I think all conversions should be subject to an engineers report on the build, many like my van when i bought it was dangerous as the idiot who built it first time round should have been shot, yet it came with motorcaravan on the l book, a total strip out was required by me and a new start from...

Get the drills out lads, free heat.

I remember getting a lecy blankie when a lad back in our old house with no heating, slipped off to bed early to try and return my ar-e from blue back to pink, total life saver.:)

Idiot built mine.:unsure:

Never mind the voice, you should have heard some of the words I used when building mine.:eek:

Builder sounds like a workies van, and Camper Constructor sounds professional to me if available.:)

Tell alexa nout, bin the spyware.:eek:

Camper constructor would be best as it neither van bus truck, but happy as is, just think it requires more plugging on the net, sometimes sites are not easy found.

Bears are a bit thick, but normly around the middle, would help if you told us the wattage of the blanket.:unsure:

Same in my van, remember you must fit regulation under plates with high tensile bolts if a tin floor, wood they dont test, but do fit outriggers for safety, mine go around the heavy chassis, as for the swivel, I used ford ones and cut the excess mounts of and rebuilt them with a locking grove...

A switch and 200ah relay so if I forgot to switch h lights off or something daft I can link hab batts to starter bat to fire the donky up, I also use this to connect all up to the alternator when driving bypassing the old factory split diode sys which was cr-p.

No grounding if through a rcd unit.

Correct way to wire battery if possable.

No requirement for a fuse after the regulator or the switch before it, no charging for starter battery< i would use votronic with a 1 amp bleed, no mains charger or outside plug which should have a reverse flow switch.

No i had 3 old caravans which i stripped one out, they work well, dont waste money on expensive stuff.

Mine is motorcaravan on the log book so no bother weith AIB, agreed value.

In truth all tanks over a certain size should be baffled.
