Drawers are awesome, ONLY IF you have the luxury of leaving them in permanently and don't need the cargo space to haul larger items. Try working in a kitchen or organizing a closet without using drawers to see how horribly inefficient it is to...

Well, i guess I have to eat my words and partially retract my complaint. Recently my Dometic fridge kinda died. I say kinda because I got an error message on the screen that couldn't be cleared no matter what I tried. The fridge itself would...

I think it's a breather port. If it was a fuel pickup, if you unscrew it there would be a long tube extending almost to the bottom of the tank under that port. Normally it would be more centered in the tank, having it in a corner like that...

I personally would not put drawers on top of the third row because you lose too much space keeping them in. It's such a hassle taking out the drawers I doubt anyone is going to want to convert back and forth very often so in the rare chance that...

I think you would need a breather otherwise you'll have problems with venting. Are you sure the other port is a fuel pickup? It could be the breather port and the tank is meant to use an in-tank fuel pump. It would be strange to have the...

You can use an electric fuel pump as a transfer pump and eliminate the second filler pipe. I posted some details here. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/auxiliary-fuel-tank-filler-neck-alternative.1025443/ It’s gone through some changes since I...

There's very little pressure in these things, <1psi if the EVAP system is working. Any more than that and it'll feel like your gas tank is gonna explode. Material cost is probably pretty minimal, print time/labor cost is what's gonna drive the...

1/8"NPT would be my recommendation. The smaller diameter leaves room for more material in the plastic body which is going to be weaker than either the brass or stainless. Plus if the threads ever get stripped in the nylon they can be tapped to...

My own experience I have used brass fitting for fuel systems with no issues, the amount of zinc or other material contained in a fitting is negligible compared to the amount of fuel in a tank. These parts will normally never see direct contact...

Yes that's what I describing. Just adding material might not work because the weak point will always be right where the port exits from the hose, that's where most of the stress is going and where the material is thinnest. Changing to a brass...

Just a suggestion if you go with option B and not worried about being a faithful reproduction. Since the weak point of these vapor separators are the ports, design it with a thicker boss around the ports can take a standard threaded brass...

I think the cutout was to clear the rear crossmember on the floorpan, but I might be confusing it with another aux tank. I have an aerotank for a jeep, they are pretty heavy duty, I don't know the exact sheet metal thickness but compared to a...

The limit of the GX is dependent on how much damage are you willing to incur. I took my GX in stock form to Death valley and came home with a cracked front bumper, dented exhaust, banged up skids, and dented side steps. In a life or death...

Depends. Lithium batteries are cheap now. It's probably close to the same cost as a deep cycle and the there are so many more benefits to lithium it's not worth wasting the money on anything else. 1/2 the weight, 2x the usable capacity, at...

25W isn't going to be enough. I have a 30W panel on some of my cars and that's barely enough to prevent self discharge. I went through the same process that you're going through right now. If you want to save money and skip the the end I can...

I ran a RTT and roof rack which was probably a combined 150 lbs or more. Wasn’t worried about the weight but it was very noticeable on the road and on off camber trails. Wouldn’t recommend doing it regularly but for a trip or two it was fine...
