Darn all my cars are r134 and I have 1 26 lb and 1 10 lb bottle of R12. Lately R12 prices are going down with fewer cars needing it.

Well learn something new every day, but it sure looks like a Sanden.
Remans for the DKS are in the $100-125 range on E bay

Check Amazon for a Dometic 310 toilet. It has a porcelain liner that doesn't stain like the plastic toilets do.

I go from 1600 ft to over 9000 on a regular basis, I very
fimilar with what altitude changes do to a sealed container (soda bottle, tube of hand lotion) so I can make a very good guess as what would happen to a sealed tank with 10 gallons of fluid.Even a 1/2" vent would solve all your possible problems. Normally that small of a vent would not work with a normal p trap, because it would restrict the air into the tank when your dumping, but this new design would let air in as fast as the tank empties.
Never thought about draining into a sealed tank, but Maineah is right there too.
-
If its any help looks like a Sanden 508, its very common in the aftermarket.

Not worried about negative pressure, its positive pressure that is the problem. Like going from sea level to your fav camp ground in the mountains. If there is + pressure you sink wont drain, or the + pressure will push the water out of a regular p trap some where else. Or think of the fun draining a waste tank with pressure in it
-
You still need a vent in the tank.

The engine has barely enough power to use od at sealevel, in Denver you have even less. I live in Wy and never use od. If you just gotta use od then plan on changing the rear axle raito to something like 4:88.

Oh you mean the spice cabinet

Yep fer sure its been remodeled.
Looks nice. -
John Mc, aka waiter. has a nice long post about this very thing. http://toyotamotorhome.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=4077

The A/C is held on by 4 screws, give them a turn or two. There may be enough squish to stop the leaks, if not you were going to buy a new gasket anyway.

225/70/15,,,,,225mm wide (not tread width) side wall to side wall.......75 aspect ratio width vs the side wall height...... 15 is the required rim dia in inches

Dolphin's are wood framed, I THINK Winne's are also wood.
MY 86 Escaper has aluminum framing, Escaper's pre 86 are debated, seems to come both ways
-
Electric brakes for sure, Powder River Pass is 9660 ft.
Pics of the hitch and frame mods. The bumper is 3/16 wall, 4" tubing. Ever thing goes through the bumper to eleminate draging. Yes I can still fit a 12ft drain hose in each side of the bumper.

As Derek says drain and fill is 2.5 qts and a dry fill (new transmission) is 7 qts. So 3qts is a bit off.
Drive it a bit and recheck. To much fluid can be bad, so check carefully.

Derek my toy was an 86, it had Filon with square aluminum tubing for the frame
Sierra before you carpet the cab put down a layer or two of Reflextix insulation, it will greatly reduce the heat from the cat converter and transmission

The little voice in my brain says look at the dip stick location.

Mine was a rear bed model, put many miles on it. This series of Escapers were aluminum framed, so they will still leak but never rot.
Thats its replacement in the background, a 26ft Class A
-
Why 1/4" ply and not 1/8" Luan? There isn't much R value in an 1/8" of wood. But there is a difference in weight and the weight is up high.

Liquid nail products LN 950 or LN 609.
Both should be at a Home Depot/Lowes

If you boon-dock a lot and need to make sure your house battery (s) are fully charged. Use a mechanical relay isolator and hook the house battery to the alternator side and the truck battery to the isolated side. This will ensure that the house battery gets every last erg of energy it can.
If you do a lot of short drives and stop and go, this might not be the way to go as the voltage drop across the isolator will effect the truck battery.

Remember that with the fake duallys and with single wheels on the 1/2 ton axle the axle takes the full weight (via the single bearing) and the power. The 1 ton axle has TWO bearings at each hub that carry the weight. The axle just handles the power.

New kind of P trap for under the sink

If your tanks (black, gray) are close togather you can T the gray tank vent into the black vent to reduce the number of things sticking through your roof.
