I did a surprisingly poor job of documenting my build as I went, but wanted to at least show off the finished project. After previously owning an extra long Class B Sprinter, I wanted something that was more nimble for driving around the city and flexible enough to haul things, since I sold my truck to cover the costs. We ended up throwing a baby in to the mix, so we had to add another seat. Here are a few of the highlights:
Anyway, it's pretty small and basic, but I hope it's some inspiration for folks or spurs some new ideas. give a shout with any questions!
- Custom welded aluminum 2 piece bed frame that's easy to remove. It sits on 2 aluminum rails that are mounted to a custom steel c-channel cross member.
- Installed l-track along each side of the van to mount the 3rd seat and kitchen galley to. I used the Base Fab mounts to use an old Sienna seat that is removed with a simple 4 bolts. The galley l-track runs the length of the cabinet and bolts to the l track in multiple places.
- Webasto Heater installed under the passenger seat
- 100AH Battle Born lithium battery powered system (lights, fan, sink pump, fridge, USB outlets, heater)
- Insulated with 3M thinsulate throughout
