I don't know if someone already let ya know, but..... The slide lever is for the resistance of the "bounce" you get from the air ride. One direction allows the seat to freely move up and down without resistance. The other direction allows you to adjust the amount of "bounce" you get, and make the seats up and down motion stiffer.
finally, finally, I get to see a sink with hot running water and a murphy style bed in a Volvo! I have been searching for years how to do exactly what you guys have done. Thank you so much.
Glad you liked it! We have been searching for Ears as well. Where there is a will, there is a way. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Here to help others have a better way of life on the road. Be safe!
@@SimpleLivin how perfect is that ! I currently work at an RV dealership and it's amazing what they fit into these RV's. I'm always asking myself if they can do this why can't truckers have the same luxury?
Thank you for the ideas. I'm in a volvo identical as yours. I think that lever is for shock dampen. Can't wait to see how you made that bed because I'm so doing it to mine
Thanks for the info about the lever!!! The bed video will be in 2 weeks. Next week is the sink/shower with hot water. Be safe out there and many blessings!
The lever you asked about controls the a,Lunt of suspension the seat has, up an down. You can soften the ride so the seat absorbs more or make the seat more rigid. To control the “front and back” motion on seat, there is a knob on the right side of the seat under the gear shift.
Thank you! Never thought about velcro for the spices. That's how the coffee pot is held down though. Lol the spices are in a little basket and have felt dots on the sides to the do t jiggle and make noise
I have a 2017 Volvo. I agree with you on the the rock hard cushions🤣 I'm using the cushions from a 2003 Volvo that I lost the motor in after 1.7 million miles.
So glad to hear that! So proud of y'all!!! I would love to chat more sometime and hear more how you guys are doing and what you have attached! Do you still only have youtube?
We thought that would be a problem but it's not. It's been 2 months of using this. We have had no problem. Highly recommend if you like cooking in the cab
The mystery lever could be for the seat swivel feature. You pull that along with the front right lever while sitting and scoot slightly forward while turning towards the right. It puts you in position to watch tv from drivers seat. My 2019 has a similar lever and functions that way. I love it. Happy Truckin’
Cuz the boss man they cost to much! Also the goal.of are channel is to have a positive impact on the average trucker. Helping improve the quality and standard of living on the road for drivers.
@@SimpleLivin i think they are about 30K-40K more for the shower toilet and APU not too crazy expensive compare to the big bunks and its very nice to have those just in case u stuck at a pile up or storms for hrs or maybe even 1-2 days
The mystery seat button, my KW has that and it is a chugged snubber, it locks the seat or allows it to move slightly front and back to smooth out the front and back movements of rough roads. Glad you guys are back, love all the great hints and tips.
That lever on your seat locks or unlocks the motion in the seat if you want it to slide forward and backwards while your truck makes motion it kinda works to absorb the rocking when breaking and bumps and such type stuff like that or you can lock your seat with it engaged to make your seat not slide back and forth and stay stiff in one position. It’s a driver preference and you just have to play with it and see what works best for you and your body and the road conditions your driving on. When there are constant bumps and stop and go traffic I prefer it locked into place and the seat not move back and forth because I tend to make it into a worse ridding situation due to that motion of the seat going forward and backwards I’ll hit the accelerator pedal harder sometimes and then it gets to be a really ruff ride then lol. I didn’t read any of the other comments people left you but you might have already gotten the information from someone else but just in case no one has helped you out that’s my experience with that lever on the seat. And your truck looks really good and you make it look very homie Have a safe trip out there ma’am and I appreciate the videos of your upgrades and ideas Keep them coming those will really help out drivers that don’t understand the OTR life out here
Such a long response only to be wrong lol it's a slider to adjust the shock dampening. So the seat either bounces up and down slow or fast. 🤦♂️🤦♂️ not used to rock back n forth.

Awsome job! I love it. Yall need to team up with a manufacturer and get this stuff to be a standard in trucks !
That is my dream!!! I would love to work with Volvo. They have a plant in Hagerstown, MD near us.

You are absolutely right. The big bucks are similar to rvs. Check out the tour of our friends. But those trucks are $300,000

Wonderful Ideas. This stuff should be standard in trucks.
We think it should be standard as well
That is such a cool setup!
Thanks 😊

Great thinking outside the box . I’d recommend Velcro for your spices

I bet that 03 ran like a champ!!
Glad your back 🎉
Good to be back
This is a great video. You all did good creating these ideas❤❤
Thank you for the support, encouragement and love
Idea for the sink. Install a garden hose fitter on the bottom and attach a garden hose and run it either out the sleeper window or door
Awesome. Thanks for sharing. I'm still trying to figure out how to set up my Kenworth.
Glad to help. If you need some creative ideas send us a message on Facebook or Instagram. We would love to help. Be safe out there!
I think it's the air ride / seat suspension.
Look how clever you two are!! Love it! ❤️
Thank you!!
Hi guys!!! I am so glad you guys are back 😁
Hellooo! How are you guys??? Was thinking about y'all. What's been going on?
@@SimpleLivin We are good! Both driving and with a new company, its been great!
So glad to hear that! So proud of y'all!!! I would love to chat more sometime and hear more how you guys are doing and what you have attached! Do you still only have youtube?
@@SimpleLivin That would be awesome, but yes, I do still only have TH-cam.
You guys are awesome
Thank you
Hey new sub from Alabama!!
Hello!!! Welcome to the simple family!!! Are you a driver?
I guess as long as you can stand the sloshing around
We thought that would be a problem but it's not. It's been 2 months of using this. We have had no problem. Highly recommend if you like cooking in the cab
Nice setup. What's the grippy fabric called and where can I get it?
You can get it at most stores. It's made for things like under rugs and in cabinets on shelf and in drawers. It works wonders!
Decoration cabin nice truck video
Thank you
Slides the seat pad forward
It stiffens the bounce of the seat

too cute
You guys are lovely.
Thank you for your kindness ❤️
I want my driver seat to function as a toilet as well so that I can do a no2 while driving
