I know the filming takes a long time but us out here appreciate it. We like the way your thinking so keep em comin.
You're very welcome! As long as you guys keep watching, I'll keep making them.
We're considering a bus and this was one of the projects we was worried about. Thank you for putting thi how to video out!
Hey there. We're starting our build..... still in demo but getting there..... Great job on the storage boxes.
Subbed
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
Really nice work, on the bus build, and on the filming/editing! So adorable when your son was falling asleep in his little car, LOL!
Thanks guys! I really appreciate that. And haha yeah, he falls asleep on that thing pretty often actually. Lol the wind in his hair is just what he needs to pass out.
looks beautiful and peaceful with the birds chirping and whatnot. Then you go and mess that up with your grinding/cutting lol j/k
Wow... what a cute moment, that poor son of yours was like, "What am I doing here, can't you see I'm sleepy!?!?!?!" lol
Haha I know! I always feel like I'm annoying the neighbors when I'm out there grinding away lol.
I was just watching your sectional couch video and realized we got the same welder. I started building my racks for my solar panels just like your tool boxes, using nuts and bolts as a backup to the welds. Great minds think alike. Mediocre minds as well.
Haha yes they do! The welder is pretty legit for only $100. It's done everything I've needed for our bus. I'm pretty happy with it. And I think the welds have a enough strength even without the bolts.
Dude, so grateful that you made this so easy to understand. Thank you and just subscribed because you are awesome! We will probably film our version of this in the future if because it’s bound to be slightly different but I will still use tips from your videos so thank you so much again brother!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! I try to keep everything as simple and straight forward as I possibly can! Thanks a lot! I cant wait to see your version.
Looks like your welding had enough umph after all. That looked like flux cure. Flux core doesn't make the prettiest welds, but gets it done. Nice job! Kiddo looked like he was ready for a nap.
Yeah I think it will hold up just fine actually. I welded on every open joint just to make sure. I'm sure it was overkill but there might be a lot of weight under there at times. And yes! Haha he has passed out on that thing quite a lot.
Great work, keep it up, I will keep watching as we are working on ours also.
Very cool! Thank you so much for watching!
wow Milo is growing up fast where are you located ? I will also be installing work boxes on my skoolie. love the Videos. alwasy giving me new ideas
Great weld job & a wonderful idea to reinforce the overlap with bolts 👍 Be sure to pay attention to the factory set departure angle that is on the rear. Going lower than the original skirt can potentially cause a bottom out situation or dragging the tail on the rear and high centering the middle. But I’m sure you already thought of all that considering your FJ experiences!
Keep rocking it!

Yeah it was definitely on my mind. I did have to make the box in the back a little bigger but we still have about 16" to the ground and out bus is flat nose 35' so we would have to be at a gnarly angle or big hump for it to scrap. Thanks for watching guys!!
Backroad Purpose good good! I haven’t done the math for the departure angle on the tail. Ours is a flat nose rear engine & we already dragged our tail out of a grocery store drive way once (and it didn’t seem that steep). We’d hate for y’all to tear off the generator box!
Are y’all going to set it up so the generator can run while stowed? And be turned on & off from the interior?
Oh bummer! I bet that was a little scary to hear at first. Lol I think we should be good on most places. Backing up on some inclines in my only real concern.
We can running while it is mounted under the bus but we don't have it set up with an interior on off switch. Our generator is just a basic generator for back up and to run the AC.
FYI I would keep most of the added weight in front of your rere axle and try to balance it somewhat on both sides of the bus.Great Job welding.
Definitely! That's why I wanted to put the grey water tank on the opposite side of the Diesel tank. And our fresh water tank is directly over the rear axle.
@@BackroadPurpose You are doing a great job I'll be watching for more videos and yes he is a very cute little boy.
@@russelltrupia4479 thank you very much! I'm glad you think so. A lot more to come for sure!
Nice work! I'll definitely be coming back to this video when we're ready for this next step in our build.
Very cool! The part 2 should have more info that will be a bit more valuable! Thanks for watching!
Hi.... What did you set to your stick welder to?....I just purchased one and I need to know the set up.... Thanks....
Let's get to cuttin'!
Definitely!
hey did you put doors on that storage?
I did! I ended up getting 16ga sheet metal, Was a lot cheaper than I expected.
Dumb question, what is that cord for plugged into the bus?
it's the 30amp shore power so bypass our solar when we are plugged into a house or campsite.
Backroad Purpose right on thanks! I am about to buy my first bus as was curious as it had this plug on the back like that. Kinda looked like a 220 plug so I was confused
has it been converted yet? it might be the block heater. it's designed to keep the engine warm in cold weather
Backroad Purpose I would assume it’s the block heater, this bus is coming straight from a school depot. Do you have any videos on converting? New sub since last night so I haven’t looked all through your videos.
come on dude 7 minutes of the video is cutting.
Imagine how long it took in the real world.
@Atr42Greasemonkey
Come on 'dude' your videos contain, er, oh that's right, you don't have any videos posted... makes critiquing others pretty shamless and waterass.
