Love it, well thought out. Tell me about the stairs please, I'm struggling with methods of making the stairs automatic with the door opening, it's a requirement for engineering and ADR's or whatever. The stairs must be imediately available for an emergency exit, the floor is 1.2metres (4ft) off the ground so a jump out the door would definitely result in an injury.

"tanks" here --- WOW !!! --- My Sprinter looks nothing like this , and the Iveco that I am converting falls way short of your beautiful m/home.
You have every reason to be proud of this setup which no doubt, you have spent a lot of time and money to end up with what you have and enjoy while touring around this wonderful country meeting lots of like minded people.
Thanks for the pics and the "what I have done" list.

The steps hinge on the left hand side with a swivel type affair and a drop down hook supports the right hand side so they hinge up and down for uneven terrain. The hand rail pulls out of the two pipes welded to the steps.
To stow them the hand rail is removed and the hook is swivelled up out of the way and the steps are pulled out level and they swing in and stow on top of the grey water tank and the batteries and the locker door is then closed to lock them away. I have a pull out ‘smoko’ step which slides out.

Dot, internal ceiling height is 2m. The height of the floor from the ground is 1m

While it’s not a Landcruiser, it does go to many places other M/H’s can’t. Height and width do restrict a lot of access to tracks etc but we have a quad for those and now the Suzy is also an option depending where we go and what we are doing. All in all we are extremely happy with the setup
