Yours is my favorite Ford build so far! My fiancé and I are building out a former passenger Ford Econoline, and trying to figure a way around the rear AC without removing it. This was super helpful to watch- our main concern is the size of the bed, is it comfortable for 2 people? Considered having a fixed bed but we would have to build such a high platform to go over the ac Unit and we want more head space!
@RMTravels Жыл бұрын
Thank you! Yes, it is a good size for two people. A nother option is to close out the ac and have the stationary bed set at length with the front and back of the van. Similar to how we have the couch but without the cut in the middle. If you have an extended van this would work well but if not then you just have to keep in mind that the side door will most likely hit the bed when closing but this is something that can be adjusted. You can check out more of our van conversions @woodpeckercraftsandbuilds this one is my woodworking channel. Good luck on your build and dont be afraid to reach out if you need tips 🕺🏻

@RMTravels3 жыл бұрын
Hi kelly! We were also brainstorming on ways to remove, by pass and all sorts of things before we decided to just leave everything as is and build around it. As long as you don't turn on the rear ac nob everything is ok. We also thought about building a bed Horizontally right above it but that will not allow you to sit up on the bed since your head will be hitting the roof. You would have some killer storage space though! These are just some of the options we considered. Good Luck!
@SPDDFL3 жыл бұрын
I have a similar e350 I deleted everything for the back heating and looped the supply and return back together. Thinking about using it is as an on board hot water heater. Tie in some metal lines to heat water inside of an insulated vessel. Like big pvc pipe, for the body / water supply of an outdoor shower. DIY solar shower type of build but using heat from the engine to warm the water while hiding it underneath the back platform. If I don’t go that route I will just river sheet metal over the holes where the lines come up into the back. Anyways, like your build

I own a 2006 e350 as well. I enjoyed your video while I brainstorm designs and layouts. I'm currently doing some exterior modifications before I start working on the interior. How did you go about fasteni g the wood panels to the walls and doors? What did you do for the ceiling? I am debating on leaving to stock ceiling in because I would like to utilize the vents for the rear heat and ac. I thought it was clever that you boxed off your rear unit.
@RMTravels3 жыл бұрын
Hi Ross! We are glad you enjoyed the video! On the walls we attach 2x4 to the inside of the van and that is what everything else like the cabinets and panels get attached to. As far as the doors we drill the wood directly in to the door, pre drilling every hole with a drill bit. The ceiling has about 5 beams that holds it in place we attach wood to that and that acts like the 2x4s on the walls of the van. If you have some time, check out this van build here kzbin.info/www/bejne/l52mlYR4er2ar6M you can see more of what happens in the back ground of the finished van.

Hi Sam, on our first van we did and I - Roger would always end up in the gap in the middle of the night ...lol!! We had cut that one with a knife so it was a bit uneven but now we have an electric foam cutting saw that cuts really precise. you still feel the gap a little bit if you are laying directly on it but not enough to become a bother. Hope that helps with your decision. Have fun on your build!

Hi Carol, on most vans there are sections that are screwed in and held by clamp connectors. You have to find those and start taking them appart piece by piece. Good luck and happy building!

Hi Jon, mostly under the bed but when we were on the road with our other van we had a roof rack and one of those storage boxes and honestly we rarely touched the stuff in there. Seems like less is more when you are on the road.
