How to break out rear A/C power from 30 amp service?

As the title implies, my 30 amp service is not enough to run both of my A/C units. We recently stayed at a campground in Nevada and had to run the generator for about 6 hours during the hottest part ...

My 98 Georgetown was 30A and had the rear airconditioner wired with a separate plug. Very handy when staying at someplace with only 30A service. I could use adapters to use the 50A and 30A or the 30A and 20A receptacles. It was wired so the generator would still run both airconditioners.
There was a switch by the breaker box the had to be switched from normal operation or run off the separate plug.
I know this doesn't help you with how to do it but it is very worthwhile to have it wired that way.
