rideadeuce Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Best mod that I didn’t even know existed till I met a fellow future Ollie owner during my last factory tour. Works great!

John E Davies Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Why mount that huge regulator onto the plastic cover of the gennie, rather than leaving it loose? It seems like it would be really easy to damage the mounting area, and transporting the gennie in a different way would be risky and awkward. I really like the concept but I have some big reservations about the method. Is there a smaller low pressure regulator that might work? Does the Eco throttle still function? Are there any jets that can be altered for high altitude operation? I have that same unit and it is a great generator. Thanks.

rideadeuce Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 I installed a 1x1/8 in. aluminum rail that connects to the frame (inside) on both sides and mounted the regulator to it. Very stable. - Mike Brentwood, TN - 2018 Elite II - Spirit of Adventure Hull #308 - 2016 Toyota Tundra Limited 5.7L Class IV hitch with 12k lb coupler, Starlink, Cradlepoint cellular modem, Victron Multiplus II 12V 3000W, Ekrano display, Orion XS 50amp, Atmos 4.4 15k AC/12K Heat pump, Nova Kool 5810 fridge, Epoch 460aH x2, 520 watts solar, Custom rear bicycle rack, Alcan Springs, Bulldog shocks, Falken H/T02 tires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rideadeuce Posted May 20, 2019 Author Share Posted May 20, 2019 The mod is super easy and no more hauling or managing gasoline. The (2) 30 lb propane tanks up front provide days of continuous cooling easily. Runs quieter. The only time I move it out of the basket is to fill/change oil. The highest I have had it is 9,000 feet... runs fine. You can still use gasoline and run normally if you really want/need to without having to remove anything. Not sure about a smaller regulator. - Mike Brentwood, TN - 2018 Elite II - Spirit of Adventure Hull #308 - 2016 Toyota Tundra Limited 5.7L Class IV hitch with 12k lb coupler, Starlink, Cradlepoint cellular modem, Victron Multiplus II 12V 3000W, Ekrano display, Orion XS 50amp, Atmos 4.4 15k AC/12K Heat pump, Nova Kool 5810 fridge, Epoch 460aH x2, 520 watts solar, Custom rear bicycle rack, Alcan Springs, Bulldog shocks, Falken H/T02 tires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
