Roof Rack & Awning Install | Episode 1 Ford Transit Trail Camper Build Series

This time I get started on the building our Ford Transit Trail van conversion by installing Flatline Van Company Low Profile roof rack and a Fiamma 45s Awning. This is the first in a long line of modifications to come before this build is finished.

It will be interesting to see this build. Pretty cool the roof had those mounting holes. Thought you were going to be doing some drilling. I am with you on the sealant.

Being a work van at heart I figure they anticipated racks going on. Definitely makes it easier.

Excited to see this build. I just bought the same van in avalanche gray.

[@Trailtec4x4]

Nice! They had a gray one but it was a high top and I wanted a mid. That's a sweet color.

Looks good. We've been wanting a camper van but don't like the price on turn key so we willxbe watching this build out.

[@Trailtec4x4]

Yeah, the entry price on a pre-built is stiff. Hoping to keep this under $100k all in.

Looks good man. Crazy how just adding the roof rack and awning already gives the van a different look. Good luck !!

[@Trailtec4x4]

Thanks. My neighbor says it helps him to know it's me and not Amazon. LOL
