RE: Vehicle Camping In Style: Designing and Building An On Board Shower System For My 84 Toyota 4Runner
Howdy there csusbgeochem1! This is a remarkable engineering job! So innovative, did you think of this yourself and had to design the system? You must be a mechanic or an engineer in the real world I assume? Because I think this is amazing. This is a great post with super well done photos and descriptions!
Thank you very much for your kind words! I have a degree in Biochemistry but have been out of a lab for a few years. Mechanical and electrical engineering were more of a hobby of mine as Im an avid offroader and overlander. The concept of the system came from online, but my vehicle could not fit a large home built heat exchanger nor could I afford plated heat exchangers sold on the market. While figuring out the spacing for the pump I realized those lines on the radiator were unused, and researched what they went to. Everything after that was my own design. So anyone with a manual transmission can purchase one of these aftermarket radiators with these ports simply plugged and do the same thing I did without purchasing an expensive heat exchanger.
howdy again sir cusubgeochem1! I see, well it's a remarkable ability to be able to design and adapt that system, or to someone who isn't mechanically inclined it would appear impossible! lol. Keep up the good work and thanks so much for getting back to me!
Your very welcome sir!
