It must be done in steps, and pictures won’t cut it, you need to put the vehicle itself in front of them so they can verify that the converted truck and the VIN match up. I borrowed a buddy’s service (dealer) plate for the inspection trip, etc. then certified it after it was an RV.
While it’s not strictly required, the other item that will make your life easier is the fifth wheel, get rid of it!! If you plan on towing a fiver you will want an air cushion hitch anyway. Both MTO & DOT (everywhere you travel) will give you the stink eye if the truck still has a ‘commercial’ fifth wheel hitch on it.
Feel free to ask if there’s something else you’re unsure of.
