    Military 6x6 Expansible Van project

    Thanks, Not familiar with the lithium titanate. Will look into it. This truck certainly has no weight carrying issues. When the slideouts are retracted, the solar panels would lie completely flat along the side of the box 17'LX8'W. There are windows on the side which would be covered, but...

    Military 6x6 Expansible Van project

    Thanks, the input here has been great. The drawer slide option has come up twice. Do I suppose correctly that most if not all solar panels are fragile?

I am installing 2 x 160 gallon diesel...
