You'll love that flooring. We have the Pirelli flooring in our Westy Sprinter, and it's been the most practical flooring I've ever owned. Sheds the snow and the sand and mud; we just sweep it out with a hand broom out the cargo door. Then I just spray some Simple Green on it, give a little scrubbing, wipe it out with a wet towel, and it looks new again.

I was originally going to buy a carpet kit for the camper, but the rubber flooring is just too useful!

And I roger you on cleaning up parts before putting them back. For some reason, I love rejuvenating old parts. I don't know why. Would almost rather clean up the old parts than buy new ones. It makes no sense sometimes...

The more I work around this flooring the more I love it. Its really too bad the Eurovans didn't come with it.

Ayup. Make that a x2 - Pocket Curtains for the Astro just moved up the list as well...

I have a pair of these on the rear most coathooks of my Astro with essentials (toothpaste, toothbrush, TP, headlamp, lighter, utensils, books, phones when sleeping etc.). When i choose to take a different car I can just move the whole deal over. I've really enjoyed them. I've also started stashing a small folding chair behind these organizers in the astro.

Replaced the old stock Weekender screens with Heavy duty dog resistant screens.

Looks much nicer, more modern, than stock and should be more durable.

Dang those are huge, Cole. What are they, 20mm, or even thicker like 1"? Can't wait to see the corresponding wheel setup...

20mm.


The Mercedes ML wheels are et62. The 18s I have on the van are et42, which I figured from the black van was the perfect offset for these vans.

So the 20mm spacer will take the et62 wheels down to et42.

where does one find dog resistant screens?

and have they been dog=tested or is it still theoretical?


Lowes :coffeedrink:


Stuff has smaller holes and a slicker surface than normal screens. I've already seen my Wolf Hybrid paw at the door and even with his super sharp claws they just slide right off of it instead of snagging, tearing and slicing through like they did the last one.

Thanks! I've had several people ask for tables now so I will make a few more to sell.

These just arrived and I'm pretty excited about this!

This is a complete set of Powerflex bushings for the VW T4 Eurovan.

I didn't want to just restore the original ride and handling, but improve upon in!

Making an old van as safe and reliable as possible!!

These should replace every single worn rubber busing in the van! Excited to get the work done and see the change!!!
