Fitting the generator was a bit of a pain, i was first going to put it inside the truck (in the rear Garage section) then i decided it would take up too much space in there.
The next plan was on the left-hand side behind the last axel, it was just slightly too big for that space as well.
So plan "C" was to mount it on the righthand side behind the front wheel, The only problem was there is a Hydraulic tank there.
So the only option was the Hydraulic tank has to move.
I had to make a bracket to hang the generator of (its 160Kg) but i also wanted it to slide out for servicing.
The generator is mounted on rubber feet, it connects to the Aux fuel tank and has its own starter battery. It is wired into the vehicle's electrical system and connected to the alarm as well.
I will be making a cover for the front of it, so it won't look like a generator.
The generator is a Cummins Onan QD5000 5.5Kw diesel unit, very quiet.
