motor
Can anyone tell me if this is an 8v71 with any certainty? Untill I removed the floor I had never even see one. I sure in the months to come Ill see more and more of it. But for now Im just curious, what is it, Its got a blower on the intake and no turbo on the exhaust. So its what???? Ill be educating my self in the near future on these heavy duty engines, as all my mechanicing has been done on gas powered units.
More used parts for the taking.
Ill set em at the end of the driveway on sunday night. Any body that wants em can have em......Free.....really.....lol...
My first cut
I was terrified that I was going to cut through the only member that was holding the whole bus up.
Yes it is straight as an arrow.
Im holding a tolerance of +- 1/16 of an inch, hope its close enough. Looked like the factory was holding a 1/4 inch tolerance so im thinking ill be ok here.
slideout hole
This slideout will house a vented propane fireplace in the middle and his and hers computer centers, one each side.
1st of 4 slideouts
Main framing for slideout (passenger side front) all primered metal is brand new with arasol sprayed primer as temporary rust protection until rust bullet goes on. This primmer will come back off right before the bullet is sprayed.
