Looking for suggestions on the routing of the diagram moreso than the individual components.
Thinking my way through a water system for the van. This will all be installed on the passenger side, rear, with the tank just ahead of the wheel well for better weight distribution and the shower, fill...
If you have a heater in your van, whether it's forced air, catalytic, etc what do you think of it?
.
An example of what I'm looking for in an ideal answer:
"I have a 8,000 BTU XYZ propane heater inside my Ford EB with an ABC top with X" of XYZ insulation. I camp in temperatures as cold as XX*F...
I've been around boats all my life. I've worked at a boat factory a couple of summers as a college kid (the first time around). I've seen lots and lots of marine stuff on expedition portal because it's generally far superior to RV stuff. I've seen seat swivels designed for vans, sprinters, etc...
So Sam's Club has these kitsI was looking at. $649.00 locally. They're "Grape Solar" kits but just component kits assembled of Xantrex stuff and somebody's panels, I don't think Grape Solar makes anything. No, they're not the best of everything. No, they're not smokin' hot deals $690 @ Amazon...
I have a Fullsize Ford Extended Body Penthouse camper van build underway (think big westfalia) and when finished I plan to hit the PanAm Hwy for a year or so. I'm beginning to ponder solar solutions and come here seeking advice. If anything I say or my math is questionable please let me know. I...
I really need to draw this up (EDIT: scroll down) but I'm at work (3:44a local time) and wanted to document this idea before I lost it...okay so imagine a regular SMB door galley box mounted to the left-hand barn door of a Ford (not a sliding door, obviously). I want a two-burner stove (assume...
What potty do you carry in your van? Do you like it? Hate it? Why? I'm currently shopping what seem to be the top 2 or 3 current models on amazon, campingworld, etc but looking for some more educated/trusted opinions than the reviews I'm seeing there. Especially interested in models your women...

I have a pretty new to me van, with an entirely new to me engine. The motor's not new (guessing about 150k...
The title says it all. How'd you attach cabinets inside your van? Have any good pictures or links? Are you happy with it? What would you do differently? I'm looking for something secure, silent, and hopefully simple. Bolts, brackets, etc etc etc. I wanna know everything. Lay it on me!

Anybody know anything specific? UJoint is Post-1992 only and I've only found some very general anecdotal stuff on these older bodies, as in no build threads or DIY type stuff. I know Quadravan and Quigley and all the other major converters did it back in the day but that was 20+ years ago. I'm...
Greetings!
Been reading this and other forums for a year now while planning a camper van build and learned a great deal but like they say, the more you learn, the more you realize you don't know. I'd basically made a wish-list of the van I wanted and cruised several online classifieds daily...
