Great job. Please put a seat belt or strap around that AC! Don't want the driver to get squashed in an accident or an emergency stop! Edit: Never mind, you did it at 13:10! :D
One small observation. I would put the broken valve stem in the spare rim to keep dirt out, other it might be an issue if and when you do it as a spare tire
Their are different meanings of the word "Plenum." One of them is about HVAC. Ducting in controlled space for human comfort, hot or cold. Riley was spot on! Lol. Also install an Inverter, not a converter near battery box. Interverters change voltage from 12V DC to 120V AC. Converters work in the other direction to use 12v truckstop items in the house! Make sure the truck is running during it's use and shut off when engine is not running! Otherwise the obvious will happen! Lol. Shim with blankets or something like, too!
Next upgrade you may want to consider, is to measure the seats you each have and take a few photos [with and without the cushions] then go see a good automotive upholsterer and get two custom made well padded seats for your 1078. I'm retired army and when the army first purchased the HUMMVE, I did this and had a custom made seat cover that I could move from one vehicle to another [as an instructor we switched vehicles constantly] and I rode in comfort and all the other instructors were blown away at how comfortable it was and what a HUGE difference it made in the ride of the vehicle. Good luck and keep the videos coming.
might want to put a sign or have a little card you can stick in the window to let people know that the truck has AC when its off so they dont smash your window to "save" your dogs?
She is a really happy person! Nice eyes, great smile! She has changed after having her baby, gained some weight, but that is common. It amazes me how smart he is mechanically! Keep up the great videos!
The cab is actually made by Steyer-Puch (the guys that make the G-Wagon too), and what you have is the sleeper cab, they make a bed for it with storage bins under the bed.
Your vehicle is equipped with CTIS, Central tire Inflationa System, most military vehicles do, the black rectangular module u read “run flat” is thst control box for the system, you changed the tire pressure to run flat which releases air out of the tires until the reach the minimum tire pressure needs to safely drive a short distance. That’s used in the worst traction environments etc driving in snow you drop your air pressure , you can inflat e and deflate the trucks tires while. Driving eith jsut this. I’d advise watching TH-cam video about the truck. CTIS is SO cool and SO useful . Quick tip, the US Army and Marine Corps have been training maintainers aepcificslly THIS vehicle since the early 80s, if you have equations , jsut post a question or place a Facebook add saying you count int ahdbneed a elajtjiut if whetting
Hey guys, i own and drive a 3.5 ton gross tipper truck, and use it as a daily vehicle, its my only road legal vehicle at the moment, so i go shopping in it, i have picked the kids up from school in it, i have worked using it, its brilliant, its a twin cab, so its got two rows of seats, its really versatile, and it only uses the same amount of diesel, as my bmw uses in gas, but can carry a heck of a lot more, it might not be as fast, but the versatility makes up for it
Courtney learns about an OLD word that's been around a long, long time. Plenum - basically an air distribution box, similar to a manifold. In our Network Control Centers, we used an elevated floor as both a cableway and air-conditioning plenum to cool equipment racks. 24" square floor panels provided access to cable runs and opened a cool air duct under our equipment racks. Mods to our floor layout was always a work in progress as new equipment came and old equipment retired. It was nice that we never had to deal with air ducting.
You're right, our air conditioner has a plenum (actually bought the material and made it., at work our big parts heat treat had a plenum. Still useful part of a lot of industries.
I would like an LMTV but I would also like my 101 running. I have had a call made to the police on my dog in my 110 in Paso Robles during the Summer. Somebody really was not paying attention several windows were open and her water boy was sitting in plane sight. I spent two summers in Chico in the mid 80’s. I preferred driving my Series III 88. It sits in its own shade as it has a tropical roof. The day it was 121 I did think it was a bit warm. Three weeks at 105 - 110 changes one perspective.
Impressive and brilliant….I don’t have air conditioning in my car….hope I can afford this…I’m saving your video to help me…I’ll have to use the window though!
Hey, I'm from Santa Barbara and My wife and I bought a house on Lake Pend Oreille in 2013. 3 acres came up for sale last year just up the road from our house, so I bought it and plan on building a pole barn there. I will be retiring in 2 years and plan to move up to Sagle Id. full time. I stumbled on your videos and have been binge watching. You are an inspiration and a great source of info for our future build. Thanks, I look forward to future videos!
Good placement of the cup holders, that way any future poop shot out of the vents will go straight into y'alls drinks and not litter up everything else.
Thanks for showing everyone how to use an air conditioner properly! Use of two hoses is a MUST to allow it to work efficiently. The same goes for those portable/wheelable room units with hoses that run to the window. It MUST be a two hose unit in order to run efficiently👌. Exhaust the hot air, intake air is important as well to keep the internal space air pressure stable so that the internal space air circulates and gets cooler and cooler.
So I'm wondering why not insulate the Army truck and the Vehicles you plan on driving a lot. I've done it with my truck and other vehicles for people. It's made driving them so much better. it helps with noise, keeping the heat better in the winter, and also keeps the cold in during the Summer. so you don't have to contently use the Air conditioning
+1 Agree. A million years ago when I drove Army trucks we use to insulate the floorboards and roofs to keep them warm or cool. It kinda worked back then on the old soft tops. But hey you have a gunner hatch, get a pintle mount and put a water cannon up there or something. :)
I'm actually redoing the insulation in my 5 ton right now because of how much heat comes through the firewall during the summer and of course escapes during the cold
I have no need for one of these trucks whatsoever, but I still want one. I live in an HOA community and knowing that this would aggravate them would give me joy.
Point of clarification, just because a vehicle is over 26,000lb gvw doesn’t mean you need a CDL or because it has air brakes. If that was the case most every RV owner would need a CDL. It has to do with how you use the vehicle. If you are using it for a business or a way to make money then it lands falls under the CMV regulations found in the FMCSRs. Great videos guys keep up the good work!
some window tint and an external semi truck sun visor would also help block that sun from coming into that giant magnifying solar collector called your front windshield. ;)
Hi, I would deep tint the windows as a ton of heat comes through the glass. Also you need to screen the two big holes you cut in the cab to keep critters out of the cab
I would have not put a pipe outside for the intake air, taking in the air from the inside would be recirculating the cool air allowing the unit to put out colder air.
On the aviation intercom proper mike placement is where you can kiss the mike. Not touching your lips but when mike is in place you can pucker up an you lips will just touch the mike. Replacement mike covers to reduce wind noise are cheap an can be bought at a place like Sportys in Ohio.
The best feature of all is having the army truck makes you beyond badasses LOL. I respect how you both troubleshoot any problem. The only thing I don't like about your army truck is that I don't have one. Also, thanks guys for teaching me a new word: Plenum.
Love you guys for your adventures , and try to get the dog seatbelts is call multi luck is a piece that you connect through your seatbelts for the dogs
This air conditioner is the coolest thing I've seen in the last year. When installing a trimmer, it would be necessary to separate the air flows, so the air conditioner will work more efficiently.
Everybody needs an Army truck :) :) Okay, the sound of the microphone system makes it mandatory that Cortney does a pre drive briefing (like stewardess's do) ... welcome to today drive your Captain is Reckless Riley and we'll be going to.... Please remember to keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times :) :)
I would suggest you think that “scoop” through, if the hot air is coming out of the top the scoop will cause the unit to draw in the hot exhaust air. Also, a screen would be a good idea. I would also look at installing an inverter to charge the battery on longer trips. I love those trucks.
screen or filter is an excellent idea (keep mice and bugs out). Something like a porous sponge similar to a vacuum cleaner filter or I use steel wool to fill in a hole when I bring a cable in the house (ham operator) mice can't chew thru steel wool
Yep. Put a 90 on the cool air intake and run a stack up to the top of the cab or vice versa. Just get them separated so you aren't pulling the hot exhaust air back into the cooling system.
perhaps consider getting rid of the center seat. if you want a comfy place for the mutts maybe slide a dog bed in temporarily. without the seat you have a great shelf for putting things.
I have been binge watching since finding your site a few days ago. One observation is that you guys for the most part have an aversion for reading instructions. Drives me nuts. On the flip side you both seem to be very safety conscience.
To keep rats and squirrels and other critters out of your heater ducts put a bar if Irish Spring soap in the glove box or in the cab. Leave it in the paper box and punch some holes in the box. Replace it every year. The animals don't like the smell and wont stick around. I learned this from an old mechanic when I was trying to keep chipmunks from nesting in my defroster ducts. It works perfectly and doesn't cost a lot.
That CTIS is a really great system to have- always make sure it's maintained! Excellent vid! You could also turn the Army truck into a new camper vehicle once you're done setting up the property! Maybe. Having a dump truck is always a good tool to have! That portable A/C unit is cool (no pun intended)! You could probably run a power line from the truck to the unit so you're not using the battery all the time while driving!
Nice ac unit like it very much for long therm solution you might try too insulute the cap against noise and heat with after market matts .... i now it's an tidius job !
I ran the site and logistics at Fort Bragg, NC for the 3 year test of the FMTV. Had some issues to start but we thought the truck was amazing compared to the old fleet that had barely changed in 3-4 decades.
Consider installing Dyna mat in as much of the cab as you can, then making a custom headliner, flooring, etc. to help with sound and temperature. Tint all the windows and do not skimp on the quality of the tint, it will make a HUGE difference to comfort level. If the rig doesn’t already have it, consider “air ride” seat bases to cushion your ride. And finally, I would fabricate a safety prop for the dump bed so that you can do work safely with the bed in the air. For a crazy upgrade, I would think about a small crane at the front of the bed(I seem some work pickup trucks with these).
Looks like the dogs approve. I think # 5 should be # 1. Now you need some sealer around the vent pipe holes and maybe some screen over the inlet and outlet pipes to keep bugs and critters out. The cool factor is off the chart. No pun intended.
my thoughts are getting one of them 6v6 and doing a rv with a trailer with it. but only if I had money and they ability to do it... :) but this is why I watch you two... you have ability, the gear, the knowledge, and etc.... keep em coming
I only have one question ... IS THERE ANYTHING YOU GUYS CAN'T DO? You are amazing and you look like your always having so much fun, even if it's a crappy job. Always good to see the pups ... ✌️🇺🇸
That shot after you put the yellow lab in the truck was a hilarious visual affirmation of how much hair flies off of those guys in late spring, lol. I am quite thankful having Maxy Boy my Cairn Terrier when it comes to the shedding thing. A few fuzz balls her and there instead of a layer of fur all around the house and cars literally 30 minutes after vacuuming up the previous layer, lol. Too cute. 👍🏻😎👍🏻
Who needs reasons. Its a truck and you live free to choose. Try evolution. Pick truck, off road pick up, off road tuck (with dump bed). Tada. The USA dream. 1 ton pick up, 3 ton truck, Got Bigggera.
Listening to that thing start you nred to replace the injectors and check for air leaks in the system the #1 killer of injectors in the 3116 is air leaks in the fuel system

just dropped in to say that I love how your dogs are treated as family. They look so happy going for a ride with you!

You never cease to amaze me.. Riley can fix/build anything.. And Courtney ain't too far behind..
might want to put a sign or have a little card you can stick in the window to let people know that the truck has AC when its off so they dont smash your window to "save" your dogs?
Yes we should!!
Perhaps solar panel on roof for the a\c ?
also if your going to take the dog's with you a lot, Remove the middle seat, in the Civ market that middle seat i useless.
I'd suggest making big signs, showing pictures of ac unit being installed on all windows, surely far better.

I'm not native English speaker but i know that word. Because work related stuff. Feels weird. 🤣
I have been on this earth for a very long time and I never heard of the word either. I still use the dictionary on words ...it's how we learn.
@@theresaluvspims6163 Exactly. Unless you are part of an industry that uses certain terminology, you would have no exposure.
Also, Courtney looked at Riley like he was some weirdo for knowing the word, he does have an engineering degree, which includes AC design.
I would like an LMTV but I would also like my 101 running.
I have had a call made to the police on my dog in my 110 in Paso Robles during the Summer. Somebody really was not paying attention several windows were open and her water boy was sitting in plane sight.

Our County bought three. At Fire Apparatus Mfg being fitted with fire body, pump and tank.
You guys are totally cool. Great vid. Seal up those holes for the mobile AC unit. Caulking and AC piping tape.
Some engines also have a plenum.
It's part of the intake system.
Add some sound deadening insulation and some carpet It will do wonders.
Maybe you can find the right adaptor and charge the unit from the trucks' electrical system. 👀 Whoo Hoo!
Put some screen over the intake and exhaust to keep the critters out
Impressive and brilliant….I don’t have air conditioning in my car….hope I can afford this…I’m saving your video to help me…I’ll have to use the window though!
Hello, make a horizontal bend with the snorkel towards the front of the truck, the wind will enter with force.
A big v-plow in front and a propane waterheater tapped into engine coolant system...and some chains!!!
my 14k 7x14 dump trailer was 8k out the door a few years ago, my neighbor just bought one for about 10-11k. i can haul 6 ton no problem.
Nice air conditioner I’m sure it will keep you cool so keep up the good work now I’ll keep watching god bless
These trucks are way more advanced than we had in the late 60s early 70s . You Two are great !
Still used in Austrian Army.
Beautiful lizenc build Steyr 12M18 Truck you have there.
Fun time now with A/C and conversation lol 👍
I am figured they were run flat tires with those huge solid rubber inserts.
I was like watching your videos for the new stuff that’s works

ON covering the exchange air openings- look into RV supplies- I think they might have just the thing. FR
Yes, use the word "plenum" every day.

Gotta love that central intire flation system😏
NEED one.
@Ambition Strikes - 14:45 - Mayday, mayday, Reckless Riley to Tower..... we are so comming in...hahahaha
you might put some wire mesh or screen door screen on the outlet hoses to keep out the critters as well as the mosquitos
My brother, Dan and I, love your channel
13:55 Courtney says "what"? For some reason I found that very funny!
Love your…..(wait for it) Cool ideas for the Army Truck
I just had to think about it you guys should do a video on all the new stuff coming out that works for you and that might work for other people
Please remember to mount the A/c unit it tight (like a battery mount). In an accident, you don't want that box bouncing around on your head!
Hi, I would deep tint the windows as a ton of heat comes through the glass. Also you need to screen the two big holes you cut in the cab to keep critters out of the cab
You did it again, COOL 😎 video 👌
😉
I use ether to start my truck to avoid the white smoke.
Truck has an either assist, bottle probably needs changed. Located behind and above the engine on the spare tire mount.
I would have not put a pipe outside for the intake air, taking in the air from the inside would be recirculating the cool air allowing the unit to put out colder air.

Portable fridge. Nice
Good Monday afternoon & thank you for sharing your journey with us
I would put screen over the ac vents so you don't have more critters moving in.
I would suggest you think that “scoop” through, if the hot air is coming out of the top the scoop will cause the unit to draw in the hot exhaust air. Also, a screen would be a good idea. I would also look at installing an inverter to charge the battery on longer trips. I love those trucks.
Heat rises?
screen or filter is an excellent idea (keep mice and bugs out). Something like a porous sponge similar to a vacuum cleaner filter or I use steel wool to fill in a hole when I bring a cable in the house (ham operator) mice can't chew thru steel wool
Yep. Put a 90 on the cool air intake and run a stack up to the top of the cab or vice versa. Just get them separated so you aren't pulling the hot exhaust air back into the cooling system.
Be sure to put a filter on the intake or you will be blowing all dirt you kick up into your unit. Great job
also divert the exhaust away from your intake
@@Torthak My thoughts also having them close or in the same cover would just
recycle the hot air and not remove the heat from the condenser
perhaps consider getting rid of the center seat. if you want a comfy place for the mutts maybe slide a dog bed in temporarily. without the seat you have a great shelf for putting things.
Awesome video 👌❤️
I love how the dog gets in and shakes "POOF!" Dog hair tsunami 😂
So much hair!
I have been binge watching since finding your site a few days ago. One observation is that you guys for the most part have an aversion for reading instructions. Drives me nuts. On the flip side you both seem to be very safety conscience.
I stumbled on your video. Loved it! You two have so much fun...
I have the exact tool box of sockets and wrenches as you do.
That was a lot of fun to watch!
Tinting the windows might help, too.
To keep rats and squirrels and other critters out of your heater ducts put a bar if Irish Spring soap in the glove box or in the cab. Leave it in the paper box and punch some holes in the box. Replace it every year. The animals don't like the smell and wont stick around. I learned this from an old mechanic when I was trying to keep chipmunks from nesting in my defroster ducts. It works perfectly and doesn't cost a lot.
I continue to be amazed that the paparazzi isn't all over this channel. After all, Kristen Wiig being off-grid should be TMZ worthy news!
Vent your ac exhaust in two separate pvc pipes with downward facing 90 degree turns or you’ll be sucking in the hot exhaust
That CTIS is a really great system to have- always make sure it's maintained! Excellent vid! You could also turn the Army truck into a new camper vehicle once you're done setting up the property! Maybe. Having a dump truck is always a good tool to have!
