Today the Flame King propane mounting plate came in (from Amzn) to mount a 20/30# LP tank and my incoming battery box. The plate is VERY beefy.


Next was to map out the front of the V nose and lay out the 15" 'bar' sink, 3.x cu. ft. fridge, 10 gallon fresh water tank (under counter), and a mini-stove top.. This template will also let me trace it for the 3/4" plywood counter top I will be doing when I can. To the left is the 32" shower stall laid out and the toilet (angle cardboard).


Close up of the front counter area. (L-R) fresh water tank, sink, stove top with the fridge under the counter top..





Next was the 12V wiring to go from the 'battery box' on the tounge to the inside.. I opted for 10ga wire which should be sufficent. Colors are BLACK for HOT and WHITE for NEGATIVE per trailer code.. The wire will be going to a new 7 pin junction box.. so the battery on the trailer will trickle charge as well.. I am going to NOT cut the factory 4 wire and use a 4 wire adapter to go into the junction box.


Inside I dropped a line down to where the RV water pump switch just above the counter top to control it will be.. the other line goes up and back over to the factory 12v interior light near the side door.


I measured under the trailer for holding tanks and decided on a 16" wide x 6" high 8 gallon for the toilet. I checked clearance and all is good. The frame is 3" high and I have 13" of ground clearance.

I also ordered some holding tank grommets to aid in install of the piping and vents to them..

Stay tuned..
