Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

As promised (with my fingers crossed behind my back).I have mostly finished my sink,fresh and grey tank,pump system.In addition to the bungee(which will be replaced with a strap of some sort) you can see ,There is also a very tight bungee that goes through the jug handles and around the back post.There is also a rubber mat below the jugs that should curtail slipping.I placed the hand pump up front to remove the temptation to use it as a grab handle.Always open to suggestions please.I think my total cash outlay on this is about $90.

Finished a full fluid change. Seems like I spent $1000 on oil, gear oil, Mercon, filters etc...

It may not pretty, but clearly it is safer.

I hope you are getting some good before and after interior shots of your van. How was the drive home? Is there anything you would have had John at Quadvan do different if you could re-do things?

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

Finally put on the mud flaps. Hope they comply with all the state laws.




The last picture makes the rear flap look like its vertical but it actually angles back slightly.
