    Diesel heater fan only

    Yeah i came across that info aswell. You can accomplish the same thing by shorting out the two wires running to the sensor. On mine i found that it cycles the fan (fan on 90% of the time) and no way to control the speed i don’t think

    Diesel heater fan only

    Yeah all i can do is guess at this point. I feel like it doesn’t take much positive pressure or flow to stop dust from coming in. The restriction from the filter is the biggest variable in my mind. Regardless if i use CDH to keep dust out or not i will be setting up my diesel heater the same...

    Diesel heater fan only

    I actually just finished taking my Chinese heater apart to see it the motors wires were exposed so i could do just that. I was happy to see its quite easy to do.

    How good can a full-size solid axle suspension be?

    Any progress on this? I follow you on IG, im kinda surprised i havent seen any tech posts about this after stumbling on this 2 year old thread. Not that im knocking you Im a big fan of those GM bumpstops too. I used them on my old toyota build and loved them so went with them on my current...

    Thinking about dropping the hi-lift

    Lots of comments about having to unload the suspension and jack endlessly. Im surprised no one has mentioned the simple solution of just throwing a chain (or what have you) around axle and frame to limit suspension droop. Only takes a minute or two and its super stable, not jacking everything...

    On Board Water systems and Storage

    Why not just run a RV style poly tank mounted under the bed? Thats what im doing on my tacoma build. I should have 50 litres ish. There should be plenty of space under a fullsize for that

    Yes, it's a basket case. No, I was not on drugs when I built it... (2001 Toyota Tundra 2->4WD Build)

    Im not sure the temperature rating on that line you used coming off the compressor but it gets mighty hot. Hope you considered that
