Hey - I like your build. A couple questions:
1. How do you access the storage under the bed? I'm a mtn biker, and would like to keep my bikes inside.
2. Is there any provision for toilet/shower?

Now that some of the core ride quality work is complete, I'm turning my attention to a couple other issues, and would appreciate guidance.
I need to purchase my headlight assemblies. Any recommendations for a decent aftermarket upgrade? I have the big blocky looking lights rather than the...
Well...It's done! Before and after shots of the Boulder Off-road Pro-Runner Plus Kit (Bilstein 5100's all around, plus 1300lbs stronger leaf springs). The van had clearly not had any suspension work done in 20yrs, and my poor mechanic had to battle the thing for 2.5days to get everything...
