Yes, it will work if you have the space. We plan to make a smaller size as well.

We are not working with Expovans, but we both like to design our stuff in CAD and use materials that will stand the test of time. The rock sliders are some really long parts (112") that require a lot of material and skill to form on a press brake. Lots of welding labor to manufacture. Powder...

The stock subframe will be removed. New supframe with a standard steering box and trackbar will be put in place. Large radius arm brackets will be added. Coil-over shocks mounted to the strut mounts in the chassis. Still a dream... we have been fighting to get the correct CAD files to design...

They weigh about 160lbs. Price is 2K. https://vancompass.com/collections/transit-2015/products/van-compass-ford-transit-rocker-guards-148-wheelbase-2015

The cabinet should be about $1500. We don't expect to be making 100s of these at a time, so the price stays pretty high at our laser cutting shop. It is designed around items that the customer can source on amazon. You can add a wood top the the galley to change or delete the sink or cooktop...

We hope to have this galley installed in the next few weeks. 1/8" laser cut and cnc formed 5052 aluminum. Bolt together design that uses a Truckfridge.com TF130 fridge, suburban 2 burner cook top and a deep stainless sink found on amazon. We plan to add a butcher block top to finish it off...

Yes, we do plan to make them for the 130" Transit. We have been trying to get the correct CAD files from Ford for a few months now. Everything we have done so far designed with a tape measure on our test van. If you are local we could take a look at your 130 to design the parts.

You will probably get about the same mpg 3.7 vs. 3.5EB. The ecoboost is a fun motor to drive, lots of torque on tap to get you moving. Nothing "eco" about it IMO. Get 4:10s for the 3.7 if you plan to run larger tires (if you can find a used one with 4:10s). 3.73 will be more common. 3.7...

Transit Tow hook The Transit does not have any recovery points. You can get pretty far in 2wd with an LSD or locker, but sometimes you just need a tug. We made a recovery point that bolts to the frame where the factory bumper mounts. You have to cut off a section of the bumper to mount this...

LED light pod mounts We get requests to make light bar mounts for the bumper. Most light bars come with mounts and can easily be attached without an additional mount. We personally don't like putting a light bar in the front bumper step location. The front step is convenient for window washing...

Rock Sliders for the Ford Transit We decided to design a set of rock sliders similar to our Sprinter version. They offer great protection and are a great step for everyday use. The main rails are constructed from 1/8" steel and have 3/16" frame tie-ins. They have high lift jack pockets at...

Rear Shock Ground Clearance The rear shock mounts hang below the differential. We have had some requests for mounts that raise the shocks up. We made a set of brackets that still allow for the sway bar to attach to the shock mounts (if equipped) and the factory shocks or Fox shocks can be used...

Fox Rear shocks We came up with a solution to mount Fox rear shocks on the Transit. We buy a shock from Fox and custom tune them to your van weight and road conditions you plan to drive on. The mounting width at the top and bottom of the shock is really wide. We have to machine custom spacers...

The ecoboost still tows great with the 33" tires and 3.31 gears. I lock the transmission out of 6th gear and go. 3.73s are in the future, but living with the 3.31 has been fine. Pics of our custom built car trailers from M&S Fabrication in Bakersfield, CA. I wish I got to take the 4500 car...

We had some fun this past February running around Johnson Valley, CA in the Transit and 4x4 Sprinter pitting for our friend's 4500 car at KOH 2017. I got stuck in sand easily with the tall skinny 235/85/16 tires aired down to 20psi. They do great in hard pack dirt, but a nice wide tire is...

Fender modifications The wheel arches on the the Transit don't give us much room for larger tires. We have to do some trimming to clear the 235s or any larger tire after a VC 2.5" lift kit is installed. The rear wheel arch will need a small section of front pinch seam cut off. The front...

Van Compass is developing a line of products to make the Transit more capable off road, handle better and attractive to the eyes. We plan to use this thread to answer questions about our products and show off new stuff as we create it. VC owns a 2015 Ford Transit high roof, purchased new in...
