Love it! Would you be willing to share the specs on your Boyd expansion tank for the hydronic system?

It's the one gallon one. I welded one more inlet with a 1/2" NPT on top for return. Or ask them to do it.

It's been a while since I updated here... so rig has 600 miles on it and drives like a dream. I finished welding the galley and it's going for powder coating. Electrical infrastructure in place including the control panel. Next is the bench on the driver side that opens to a bed. oh, and custom snorkel.

Electrical done. Compressor in place. Water system and hydronic heater done. Galley in place. Finished the bench/bed and it’s headed to powder coat this week. Next upholstery with 18oz gray cotton canvas including seat covers and cushions with hard 2” foam.
Rig has 5k miles and it is SO much fun to drive. Visited @Michael and @Corrie a few weeks ago and driving 350 miles got 22mpg. Oh, and it was great seeing them.

It’s been a while. Had issues with the Espar heater connection with the controller. It will be resolved soon. It’s sitting back of the fuel tank under the car so not a two man job.

Rig is 99% done and this weekend I’ll spend on it in the Mojave with the trail guardian group mapping camp sites. First test after driving around 6000 miles.

Air tank and regulator for the low pressure into the 32 gal water tank.
