Such a beautiful generator installation and such a getto installation of AC

I put together a system using a 3000 watt Yamaha and a Mitsubishi mini-split a/c. Had to get creative, but once it was all set up, man did it work well. The a/c would freeze you out in any temp, including 110+ Arizona summer days sitting directly in the sun. It was also blessedly quiet, both the generator and the a/c unit... If I set another one up, I will look in to getting a quiet diesel generator, because fueling the gas one was inconvenient. I would also spend more time doing everything with a little more planning and fabricating. Kind of threw it together in a hurry...

You need a portable a/c with 2 hoses to make that setup effective. The single hose units suck air from inside and blow it out side, creating a vacuum in the cab, thus every crack and crevice in the truck is now sucking hot air from outside. The single hose a/c units are only useful in rooms where the rest of the building is cooled.

Nice set up ...you did a pretty decent job installing it. I've been happy and lucky with my tripac.

This is absolutely amazing and awesome. Well done.

You sir are a genius! Id like the bracket idea much better for the same reason. Idk how to run the fuel line like you did.

👌 Awesome build !🙂👏👏👌👌 I will do the same setup for my truck

Very informative bro, digging the content

Great video , well explained, awesome voice👍👍👍👏👏👏👏🤴

Excellent job Sir

I use this exact same AC in my truck and I agree, not quite good enouigh during the day time.. I also use the window screen technique

thank you for the good information

This is really good idea 👍 I love it

Great job

Thank you so much.

Thanks you for the video

I have a similar setup, they make an portable air conditioner with two vent hoses, this gives better results!!

Thank u for this info

Awesome set up, I gotta start on mines lol! 👍

That’s a great alternative to tri-pak. I wish I would have done that myself.

Great setup,hope I can find one of those pulsar generators

I personally would have probably used the copper alloy brake line as it's more flexible and won't rust. But it's a pretty decent idea. I agree on the Diesel fuel although Gas is cheaper these days and usually only a walk from where your truck is. Not like that's a bad thing for most drivers haha. I like those brackets though. There's cheap little 2 wheel dolleys that fold up to haul a gas can across a parking lot.

Awesome set up Sr and the fuel line it's genius, any updates after one year? Does it still works good? Thanks for sharing

Well done. I went cheap. $300 gas 4k Watt inverter bolted on cat walk, must clear trailer turns and $200 Hisense 5k BTU. Heavy duty 25 ft cord. $650 total. Generator last 15 hours on 2 gallons

Seen an older Freightliner Classic that has a window mounted A/C put right thru the back of the bunk wall, higher up where the top bunk would’ve been. Made my head tilt a little bit seeing it in all honesty, got me thinking about how the operator did it, sealing it up, etc. Have seen a few trucks with mini-splits installed, the tell-tell box mounted outside the truck. Also curious how that’s accomplished. An excellent solution for a reasonable price!!!

excellent setup.... how is the generator holding up? does it cause any problem with sleep and its noise?

Nice! I'm doing something similar just much less power lol.

Awesome 👍🏼😎

Did you drilled a new hole in the fuel tank for that setup?

Hello one man band. Very nice video and nice talking. The generator setup is good for diesel use. Must be pretty heavy and noisy. Of course I am going to get myself a different set up for the unit inside. The question is can this generator can jump/charge the main battery ?

I have a similar setup 10k watt AI power gas generator, 10 gallon fuel cell mounted on the back of sleeper that gravity feeds to main tank 17 gallons total lasts one week, I cut a hole on side of truck for the black and decker heater/ac unit, vent, I should have cut a hole on the floor easy to patch and sell truck, I also use a radiator heater in winter, basically the black and decker blows air through the radiator heater for good warmth circulation.

I like how you mounted the generator. I do not like those ac units personally. Don't want to have to put the exhaust hose in the window or deal with draining the water out of that ac. I am putting a rv ac on the roof. I also bought a split unit ac. Not sure which one il use lol. Thanks for the idea!

The gen pictured here has been discontinued or is out of stock. Is it still working ok? Did this diesel gen have the remote start option w the key fob? Why did u modify the brackets? Man, wish u could've filmed the fuel line connection. Why did u use the driver side fuel tank as opposed to the passenger? Great video n yes. Diesel is the way to go n using the trucks fuel as the fuel source.

Did you add fuel pump for generator to to keep getting fuel from truck fuel tanks??

Nice!

I have a Set up like yours but only I have a gas generator Have a portable AC that is 7000btu I found having event out the window like that the vent heats up and the air conditioner can't keep up with the extra heat So I cut a hole my floor and I put it to their and it works a lot better Make an event shorter

A mini split ac hp inverter unit would be a better ac option. An AC designed for traders would also work as well.

You did everything good but putting the exhaust vent in that screen. reason why is because all the hot exhaust at the air conditioners blowing out the window coming right back through the screen. Nice job on that generator mount.

Nice job.I just think how this generator will last in salty winter spray, road salt?

Thanks very good video thanks for the depth of information have a tripack system 120amp not much muscle really but must need a inverter but i also have very sensitive electronics on the truck that dont like the square wave. Pure sine wave inverters cost a hell alot more then a generator.

I have a mini split but the gas generator has to be refueled too often. I think it's better to install a diesel generator

I wander how well the generator held up against the roads we drive on. That's my only concern... Nice job

If that's the route...I'd just do a tool box with a little 2000w Honda/Predator Inverter generator in there with some vent holes cut. Yes it's gas but cheaper easier and more versatile as well as mobile. Pretty easy to rig up a larger tank too.

How does the generator get fuel is electric pumped in or is it gravity fed???

I been looking for this generator for a year now

Did you plumb the diesel generator into the fuel tanks? Im thinking of going this route since all I need is a T and a electric transfer pump but seems like a better option being plumbed into 300 gallons of fuel then having the 5 or 10 the generator holds.

Wish you would have finished the install

How many hours it can run straight thank you bro

Thick rubber between the mounting frame and generator

Wher did you get the window adapter please for the a/c hose

How did it do in inclement weather.

Which you able to install my truck if I pay your service thanks for your help

How has the generator held up so far?? I put a harbor freight predator 3500 in a stainless tool box and mounted that to my frame of my truck and it works ok but it’s gas, so it’s kind of a pain. Didn’t know you could buy those at Home Depot , had I known I might have gone that direction.

How many hrs does your generator have on it now?

Why can't a thermoking apu and an inverter power an a/c or more importantly a ceramic or infrared heater without power interruption from the inverter or the batteries in the truck being drained too low?

Why not use the vents on the sides of the sleeper instead of using the windows

A used APU with all parts and hoses is the same price as your generator. Takes up less space on the frame and in the interior wouldn’t have a big ass ac unit in the way of everything. Looks nice mounted on there though 🤷🏻‍♂️

Where did you buy it?

Bink sent me 👍🏽

How is the setup doing today ?

How has that generator been working for you I've been looking at that 1 to go off gri go off grid. I'm sitting here laying in my new 2022 LT with a thermoking running. I have a Westinghouse with remote start but when I get set up out where I want to get some land I want to get a diesel generator and I've been looking at that model model. How is it holding up to the abuse on the road

I have been entertaining this idea. Im concerned with the road grime, snow, ice, and salt destroying the unit in a short time. I seen a guy the other day with a nice tool compartment on his trailer and thats where he mounted his generator.

There a smaller diesel generator? Anything recommende?

I went with 3 300AMP hour life p04 batteries charged by my alternator. When I shut down they will run my ac for 13 hours or so.

Hows the generator running?

Where did you get this generator for $1500?

Don't laugh I seen a car with a generator in an open trunk and a house ac in the back window lol

Where can I buy the iron frame for fixing the generator, because I also want to make one

Is this system fuel injected

I’m pretty sure that fan was to blow the fumes away from the truck

Anyone have any recommendations on a comparable quiet diesel generator? This one has been discontinued and I am not finding ANYTHING under 4k

Besides the weight I'm just willing to bet it's far to loud!

You could buy a bigger inverter ,and just plug in your ac unit

How heavy is that generator?

where can I buy the support and generator

Where did you buy generator ?? And how much

How much cost gene where u bought is it diesel please

I hope you didn't drill holes in a heat treated frame

Is the generator Loud?

i like the made in china sticker

Put a mini split wtf.. Generator don't look like it has a cross plate unless you put one in

Generator gets wet with water..

Just imagine starting it up in a truck stop at night lol

Whats the purpose of having a generator?

cheapest diesel generator you'll find now is over 4 grand. a used apu is cheaper then that. wish that generator company wouldn't of went out of business.

Those dont last you very long, u will have to replace it within a year i bet.

🤦‍♂ Don't use single hose portable air conditioner, use two hose version, intake and exhaust vent.

Thermo king APUs are absolutely garbage. A quick search on YT shows many bids on the issues with tri Pac. I recently removed mine, the 3rd I've owned, repeated issues with fault codes, arctic package not functioning, numerous electrical issues such as discharged batteries, not charging batteries, alternator issues. A 400lb boat anchor. Absolutely trash, TK should be ashamed for $10,250.

Tripac is overpriced junk. This is the way to go. Roof mount a/c and heat. No screaming condenser fan mounted by your head. Rooftop goes bad any RV dealer has the replacement takes about an hour to change.

Freaking loud 🤣🤣🤣

Good idea just. .....talk ..........just a lil.............................. faster.......... I almost ............fell .........................asleep

It's illigal to drill holes in the frame

I need to find that diesel generator
