Havent posted here in a while. Finally something non-build related happened!

Got my cool little Harbor Freight Trailer/Pod all wired up and installed the harness in the Syncro.

Now the add-a-room & other accessories we bring when the WHOLE family comes along, don't need to go IN the van   thumpup)-

 C@@L  clap2-* Now for act #2 you need to be creative and make it more versatile / transformable and into a Double Decker raising it about 18"or so. So you can carry the Pod on the upper level and other things like firewood etc below it.

 Wait !!!!!!! Why is your gas cap at the rear of your Van?  :confused04:;

 Shawn,

 Way cool trailer!  but I think I see.... yup,

  I think your next little project is right there,    - slightly obscured in the picture...

With some modification to the axles and wheels... you can haul that rolling ice cooler behind  your trailer!  - more room saved! -

 Went to Action Auto Imports to get new oil cooler seals.

And what did I see just sitting there behind the glass shelf...........SCORE  bugey-- A set of T-3 low Profile air cleaners.




I know I know Oil bath air filters are the best, but Dam these look good on there.




I have to do a little bit of modifying to clear the Chokes


Cheers

Hey Glen, Those air cleaners work great! You just have to keep them clean. You can also get cotton type filter elements for them like K&N.  %$oldcit
