The last cutout denied us hearing Brianna’s thoughts on the diesel heating. Can you (or ask her) just give that information in a Reply to this Comment….and /or on the next Thursday night? Thanks
Hi Chuck, I know you get this question hundreds of times but can you recommend an insurance company that Will cover a roof raise Skoolie ? Soon as I call Kelly people tell me no once I mention Roof race. I did have the title changed over to motorhome. And I’m almost done with the build, i’m doing the trim and pretty stuff now. Thanks
Hey chuck. I got a 120 Octavo induction burner off of Amazon that works great. VERY high heat.
@deleted: 4.44 is a good ratio for a 3060 which is double overdrive, 4 is direct, 5 is overdrive, 6 is double overdrive. You could certainly go lower with a larger engine or a lighter vehicle or a single overdrive or direct trans. The tire diameter, top transmission ratio, weight-height and desired speed all play into the axle ratio choice. Online calculators will pop out the engine speed with different setups.
Raising a roof alone is the only way I'd attempt it. More than one person would get in the way. Lifted plenty of houses, barns and other structures, a bus roof is more flexible so much easier. I'd leave front or back attached but flexible (cut through the structure, leave sheet metal, or plywood gusset), lift the whole length maintaining the roof straight but pivoting, not level. Temporarily secure the high end, a sheet of plywood would work fine, then lift the low end. A carpenter would use lengthwise bottom plate and top plate and kicker studs to lift like this, an X frame secured on one side to the floor and roof, and lifted with ratchet straps would work well also. This is a conceptual explanation of one way to lift a roof, not a complete explanation. Don't do this if you don't understand how and why it would fail.
I am buying a bus that will be my “RV” instead of a regular RV. Not scared of an engine rebuild. They are wayyyy more simple than a gas engine.
I have a 2005 blue bird school bus flat nose my turn signals don't work I did find the 20 app fuse and it was bad bit they still don't work I can't find where the relay is can you help thanks Lonnie
Work for a small trucking company. We don't use retreads, even on trailers. We have substantially less tire problems than when we did
I love it that you guys are both in debate. I think it makes for a so much better View. Sorry Chuck
I'm looking forward to seeing Gutted!
Thank you Chuck we are going to the bus fair and excited to go.
I hate that I missed it but hey, I can watch the reruns...lol
I did a solo roof raise, key points;
-I used both all thread method and farm jacks (2x 2”x10” across the windows with the jacks on the exterior)
-tile suction cups (2x cup per handle) to manipulate the skins
-definitely had a set of scaffolding
-skins were placed into the top rub rail (only took top row of rivets out) before using the suction cups with ratchet straps to pull them upwards into position from the inside
-lots of ratchet straps to get the pitch/yaw/roll of the roof correct to weld in the hat channel supports (I used 32” long 1-1/4” 14ga square tube for each channel)
Huge PITA and definitely scraped the skin off my shins multiple times as the 16ga 4’x10’ skins became unmanageable and slid down my shins
Make sure to wear a respirator when sanding (40grit flapper wheel) the galv off the hat channels before welding
While in Oakridge talk with the log truck guys they know about Your tire question.
Hee chuck,
