Looks great. Will start my heater install next weekend so very helpful. Any issues opening the bottom drawer with the vents in that location or are they flusher than they look?
No got about 5mm clearance from memory. I did check that though. @Tone put some better vents with his planar which he ordered from the UK.

A couple of pics I forgot to put in with the fuel pump and muffler.

Melb, Vic.
I would also suggest you wrap the fuel pump in rubber tubing. For protection and noise reduction. Even with the rubber mount they are noisy little buggers.

Just an update with the heater after a weekend in the high country. It was nice and toasty in the van and one morning I think it was down to 3 degrees so happy with the purchase. We did find that with the thermostat set on 16 it shut down and restarted constantly which was annoying as that is when it is at it's noisiest but put the setting up to 18 and it just ticked away nicely.

Just saw this set up in my Facebook feed courtesy of Jayco Australia. Hope the fame doesn't change you:behindsofa:
Who are you???:D
Yeh you would think people sending pics to Jayco wouldn't be covered in mud. Geez wash the van. :boink:
Sorry mate , what was I thinking?
Your killing me @17triton .....mud over the new van and the Triton!;)
Great photo's mate.
Looks like a magic and quiet spot.
The van has had a bath but the Triton is still waiting. Maybe tomorrow's job. It is a fantastic spot on a crystal clear creek.
