Started a new thread here with each list split into separate posts since a single post with all the lists would exceed the 50,000 per post character limit.
I have installed tweeters in top of the door panels tonight. Pictures show locations of screws and removal is pretty straight forward. ±+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ A small flatblade screwdriver is what I use to pry panels loose. I carry it in my pocket everyday for 20 years and have...
It’s been a bit of a wait while I pestered folks on this forum with questions, but I finally have a van to work on. I picked up a 2020 AWD in Kansas City from Matt Ford on August 12. It was ordered in February and would have been built in April if not for the Covid-19 shutdown. The name of this...
Well its not quite done(are they ever really done!?) but I thought I would post my progress so far. I bought a new 2020 AWD ecoboost with adaptive cruise control, leather power seats. The goal was a camper good all season and maybe manageable on service roads but not 'off road' that would...
So good news: I've got a large update with about 50 Transit camper van builds I've found on Outdoorsy. Not only are there some interesting builds, but I thought it might be useful for members would like to rent a Transit camper before they buy or begin designing their own.
Bad news: The list now bumps up against the 50k character post limit so I can't actually post it.
@asdrew, @GapRunr, is there a way around this? I could split the sections of the table into separate posts, but it would be kinda weird to have one table at the beginning of the thread and others at the end (and eventually in the middle of the thread). Can I insert a post at the beginning?
You could upload the file to a file share host and link it here. An easier solution is to save the document in PDF format, and attach the PDF file to a post. Some browsers will automatically display the contents of the PDF file in the browser window. Those that don't can always double click on it.
Okay. Since the table had bumped up against the 50k per post character limit, the list is now in PDF form attached in the original post.
I made a couple of significant changes. Besides adding a few build threads and pro builds I found, there is not a list of Transit Camper van rentals all on Outdoorsy (for now). Not only does Outdoorsy have some interesting builds with pics, if you're considering buying or building a Transit camper van you may want to rent one of these to get an idea of what it's like (and maybe figure out what you do and don't like in a build).
Hey @DANNER, awesome list! I think we are in very similar stages of our van planning. No van yet, just dreams and planning. I’m also exploring the sit/sleep four with a garage of some sorts. I’ve got two boys (4 and 6) I want to take to see all the national parks for two years.
Curious what your thoughts are on your two-bed layout? I’ve thought about doing something with linear actuators and dropping a bed that’s lifted to the ceiling over the kitchen/seating area with a platform bed in the back. I thought with the HR Transit, I could got a 5” mattress on a 1” 80/20 frame with about an additional 1-2” of insulation/finishing and still come in around that 6’ mark underneath.
Closest I’ve seen to this concept is a Sprinter with the Happijac in the back, but that was too low to stand comfortably under.
Ordered may 5,,,,,T250 High Roof 3.7V6. 148" cargo van ,,magnetic,,remote start , received VIN may 29 ,,,,,build date Aug 15 ,,,,,,, delivered to my driveway Sept 15
That was more or less a mock up , i'll build you guys a new build thread with updated pictures and info , i'll then post a link to it here and Danner can put it where he wants.
i've finally started a small web page to document our conversion. http://projects.foxharp.net/the_van there's some background and history there, for friends/family, but folks here are interested in technical details, so i'll try and post links to that site here whenever i make significant...
