AlphaVan is road worthy! Up at alignment right now, now I can start adding the miles.

Very very beautiful !!!

He's had several interiors from them, all minimalistic compared to what we normally see. Budget isn't an issue and there aren't many options out there.

Maybe you need to hire a Carpenter / Electrician / Plumber / Mechanic , etc , etc ,etc ?

I hear those guys are all crazy and drink too much.

What about the folks up in Asheville, http://www.moreheaddesignlab.com/id2.html?

I see them advertise but beyond that don't know anything about them.

If you are looking for a minimalist interior for a customer where budget is not a concern, find a cabinet maker who works in the Weaverville or Cashiers/Highlands area and a custom upholstery shop that does boat tops and interiors. If Lake Norman isn't too far away, there are re plenty of both around the area.

No way that I would put an SMB interior in Alpha after all of the other work that has gone into it.

Other options would be local furniture makers, Senior Design Project or custom metal fab shop in the area.

I've known them for a long time, good dudes.

Seriously?????????????? All of this money into the over-the-top mechanicals, and then he sends it to SMB for some low-grade wood, staples, and grandma's 1970 door handles??

Coming into this convo a little bit late but feel like a comment in defense of SMB is merited, at least in my case. I have a 97 full SMB build and while I am not altogether impressed with the materials and execution, my interior is holding up extremely well for its age. That said, for a build of this caliber SMB likely wouldn't even be a consideration for the interior build.

It works fine for me!

Try clearing your internet history and cache, reboot your computer, and try it again.

RV time! Rear springs, shocks and sway bar link extensions.

Chris, can you show the rear springs on this one, old and new maybe? I'm thinking about how I might lift a 25' motorhome I have. I dont' need 4x4 but I need a lot more clearance in the rear so I want to level it.

New video!

The old units are flat (inverted under load) and the new pieces have a 6" lift. Monsters for the E450.
