Yeah... shiny and purpose driven. We could not be happier with the fit and finish. And for the record, I have two "tags" on Abel this year. I am up 2-0... :-D Thank you for the parts and showing me that awesome PVC build for canopies! LOVE, love, love it!
I have seen those intakes before but most people use 2 IIRC. The reason being is that they do not flow enough or close to the OEM specs at WOT. Thought I would mention it for anyone considering those style of intakes....
It is barely enough at max RPM for the 3116/3126 or the C7 and when the filter element is perfectly clean. A second Donaldson is required because the filter element is only perfectly clean and full flowing the first day. It is not a subjective opinion, rather the objective specification of flow rates.
@@dflood316 barely enough at maximum RPM? So, it is good to go, even at maximum RPM is what you're saying? Who runs their trucks at maximum RPM anyway? And the worst that would happen is what, a loss of maximum RPM power as the filter gets dirty? Well, I guess he better run right out and go get another filter unit then.
I came to the game early in Washington... since then they have been tough on FMTV owners. I had to license mine as a commercial truck, because I haul food for the Mission. As an RV, I think it is easier.
Это была забавная сборка, которая прошла довольно быстро. Больше всего времени было потрачено на установку оборудования для камеры, организацию инструментов и разметку всех частей. После того, как мы просверлили отверстия, все прошло быстро! Спасибо за просмотр, мой друг. It was a fun build that went pretty quick. The most time spend was setting up the camera equipment, organizing the tools, and laying out all the parts. After we got the holes drilled, it went together fast! Thanks for watching my friend.
When I saw what these guys were working on, all I could think about was how awesome this would be for the FMTV expedition community. So, I asked how I could help spread the word. It's a game changer and will help so many folks with their builds.
The thickness is less important than the strength. The biggest difference from an engineered subframe and a non-engineered subframe is that the non-engineered has to be so overbuilt, because no one knows what kind of forces it can take because they can't crunch the numbers. You wind up with a grossly over-weight vehicle. With engineering, you can determine the strengths ahead of time and plan for the strongest subframe at the lightest weight. These subframes can take over 12K lbs... more than you would ever want to run an overland with. The larger subframes can handle even more!
I now see why you like that subframe. Thanks for stopping by on your way over there...

Dang that turned out awesome!!! I found the website and see that you have them for sale. KUDOS!
Thank you Trent. I really like curious people that pay attention to the description like you do! Blessings!
Definitely interested
They are currently available on the Globe Trekker website store. Link is in the description.
Great video!
Thank, my friend. It was a fun build for sure. Good to get out and help other FMTV owners, too!

459 CFM's is not enough? Well, it's an option over the double filter stack. I provided a link to the list of specs in the description.

@@trentblaine1768 Engine damage occurs on these when they cannot pull the air they want....
Great info, thank you!
You are so welcome. Come back any time.
Love this video. Can you provide the link to that air intake, please?
I'm looking for it. I will post it to the description when I find it. Sorry for the delay.
@@HelicoolsHelipad thank you!!
@@tradewind67 link is up! Thanks for waiting.
One person should always do the measurements or layout unless you work with each other for 30 years! Just for sake of it! Nice build guys! Love those
It was a fun build... nice when it comes together in the end and works like it was supposed to. Hard work, but clean fun.
I like the adjustable four point height. What thickness of steel did he use?
The thickness varies depending upon the stress levels in that area.
What did Oregon and Washington put you guys through to get titled and registered?

Ещё раз посмотрел! Получил удовольствие!

this is awesome Dave! is it going to be part of your new business plan?

Cool frame idea same pivot system as nitrogen bulk carriers
Ah! So you are saying this is "proven technology." Right on, my friend. Yeah, the build went pretty good... pretty happy with the results.
Also the air intake is lower than factory so water can get in the intake at a lower level
Who built the zero torsion sub frame. Looks great.

Красота!
Да сэр! Получилось здорово!
Yes, Sir! It turned out great!
