Awesome video, thanks! Giving us other Skoolie newbies great ideas!
I think you’re on to something, keep it going.
Thank you, I’ll keep it going as long as I can afford it.
Friend did this to haul his pulling tractor in the 80's.
Bro, you're living my dream. Tell me how you got yourself into this position, I would love to do a project like this one day.
I graduate college in December and decided that now is the time to travel since I’m young. Planning to venture out west and explore the country.
@@thegreendumpster1414 Keep doing you my dude. I'm in my 30's these days. You got the whole world in front of you.
As long as I can continue to fund it I’m going to keep on keeping on.
Love it.👍👍
Appreciate it, lots of time and work have gone into it and I’m sure countless more hours will go into continuing the progress.
Sick
Love it
Like it, subscribe, and share it with your buddies. Get the word out and help ya boy out.
Do all full size school buses have that much overhang behind the rear axle? It looks like a lot. Also, this made me realize that busses don't have a Mansfield bumper, which kind of blew my mind that it's not required like it is on tractor trailers.
Lastly, have you decided how much weight you think you can safely carry? Wonder if this would work to carry my 8k cclb dually 1 ton
Amazing build! Can't wait to watch more.
Essentially, I think there may be an additional foot past where the back used to stop, but not enough to notice. I know with my Cherokee on the back which is close to 5000 lbs and it’s balanced between the limits of both axle ratings at about 2k lbs under each limit.
The reason they don’t have a Mansfield bumper is because when hit it would push the bus forward and they would rather sacrifice the car hitting the bus then the child in front of the bus.
@@TheHearseAroundJimThorpe wow. Thank you for letting me know, I searched high and low on google
Did I see muffler taken out under there 🤨
It’s straight piped with a side exit exhaust now
@@thegreendumpster1414 lol cool🤣
Could a bus like that pull a gooseneck trailer with a load less than 8500lbs?
I’m sure it could. My Cherokee weighs 5000 lbs and I have no issues with weight
What size bus you recommend?
@@thegreendumpster1414
What would you charge for similar conversion?
I personally am not looking to get into converting buses for profit, I don’t have the time or space to do it at the moment
Hi
What motor does it have?
DT466
@@thegreendumpster1414 what year is the bus? Does that motor provide enough power to haul with?
2006 and I drove it all across the country with the stock tune which it was obviously a bit slow on some hills, but manageable. Since then I’ve added an Orion tuner, and changed the rear end ratio from 6.17 to 4.88 and it drives great.
Can that support a car?
Check out some of the other videos/Instagram posts. It’s taken my Cherokee to Kentucky, North Carolina twice, and around South Carolina
@The Green Dumpster id love to build one!
Go for it! It’s a fun project and you’ll learn a lot along the way!
What is it registered as?
It's still titled and registered as a bus, but since it isn't used as a bus the DMV gave me a property carrying tag for it.
How I registered to pull a gooseneck oTr?
I’m sorry, I can’t help you there. Mine is registered as a bus and strictly for personal use.
That’s a set up
It’s even better if a setup since that video! It’s been awesome living in it and traveling the country for the past month!
