We Are Converting This Ford Transit into CAMPER VAN

check out the full build playlist here • We Are Converting This...
We Are Converting This Ford Transit into CAMPER VAN, The ford transit has been an iconic van throughout the years and a van build we have never done. Converting a ford transit custom into a campervan is going to be a great little project and something that should be a quick turn around as well, with it being a lot smaller than the crafter thing will move a lot quicker,

And may miss people abs comments like yours which would be awfull . The fact you take time out of your day to let us in abs leave a comment makes it all worth woke abs we both appreciate you and all the great people we have here .

Great channel guys! I am on the hunt for a lwb custom to convert asap. I'm gonna keep a close eye on this build! Would you do me a solid and tell me the floor dimensions of/and around the wheel arches? Trying to plan my layout but lockdown is making it a tad tricky for me to get out at the moment.

[@UrbanVanlife]

Your probably better getting the sizes off line mate to be honest for the year and model your getting . As they all seem to be a little diffrent with each year not by much but when your trying to figure out sizes they really count . I wouldn’t want to give you bad sizes and mess you up if you get me

[@cellery1268]

@@UrbanVanlife Makes sense, didn't think of that! I'm stalking through your videos now to get some more ideas for my custom. Wasn't gonna have a shower, but after seeing the one in the back door on another vid, i am sold. Where did you get that?

It’s just a shower I fitted in to the liner mate there is a old video there talking about it . Tell ya what tho BLOODY COLD lol . It really depends on what size van tho mate it really dose . And to be honest we only used it at Glastonbury festival once when it was mega hot

@@UrbanVanlife Found the vid, pretty easy option to fit tbh, plus might add an engine heat exhanger like the bushraner 4x4, definitely worth having. You did better than me at glasto in the heat, I just got the mrs to hold the drinking water above me head 😎

Whoa whoa! When did you change your channel logo and banner? Are doing this for someone or are you just addicted to building out vans? Why do people want the rails? Is there a shortage of rails? I can't wait to see what you guys do with this one.

[@UrbanVanlife]

Lol I changed it all a few days ago . It was a cold and wet day so I thought it’s a great time for a litttle re branding and to make a new logo . As for the rails they will be sold with the seats floor and bulk head some people have damaged ones abs like a fresh set plus ford charge a bloody fortune for them so we might be able to get a good price for them instead of just chucking them in the skip . Abs yer this ones going to be a lovely little van when it’s done ideal for a couple to have many years of camping and weekends away in . Thanks guys abs happy new year
