We are gradually getting it the way we want it.


Well after a successful first short trip we are progressing on some of the other mods to the van, the dealer is getting a device to winch the spare up under the floor of the van, thus moving a good amount of weight forward.

I have built a box to fit over the genset slider, thus sealing it off from the rest of the boot, and keeping the inevitable fuel fumes away from the electrics, just in case.

 

I have also included a photo of our solar panels, and batteries (box on drawbar) so those who are interested.

I will post more photos as things progress.

Shut the front gate!!

Those Solar Panels look much better on the top of the van than against your back fence when I last saw them David and the batteries look much better on the the front of the van too, than in your shed.

Carol must have real itchy feet by now.

Looking good David. You sure have the odd one or two solar panels.
