So after destroying the cab end of my new motor I thought I'd start on the back & bagan by choping a chuffin great hole in me floor! This was to house the leisure battery (curtosey of Troy), & after much descussion with various people about where to put it , I decided to keep it out the accomodation space & sink it in the floor.
This has worked well & it dose not quite hang as low as the fuel tank. Then after some well spent ebay cash the back was fully soundproofed & the timber floor was replaced complete with new carpet & a "now u see it, now u dont" type trap door.
The fuses were set between the seats (one ready for a sound system He He) & my split charge system was wired in
.
My stereo/dvd was then wired back in the opposite way to the lesuire batt & works a treat.
I then pre set the mount positions for 4 bikes using front fork style mounts, this may not b the most space saving method, but I think is the simplest way of transporting our beloveds! I did have trouble with room though behind the back seat!
Finally tonight I made a space like lump of metal which will hold my tool chest
so I have everything on hand!
Still to go is covering the back half of the floor with rubber,( if it ever arrives), Remaking all the side panels & soundproofing behind them, fitting some lights/ auxillery power in there & of course building a nice sound system in there somewhere (those who know me are aware of how I can shoe horn these into incredibly unusual vehicles).
& then I can start on the house!
