With the window covers installed (the covers contain Low-e aluminum foil), cell signal is REALLY weak inside the van. We wanted a weBoost on the new van to mitigate this, so here's the solution we came up with to remotely tilt an antenna (cell booster, ham radio, etc) up/down by the press of a button! The tilt motion is provided by the Diamond's K9000 motorized antenna mount: 1- Mount the K9000 to your roof. 2- Pass the cables (K9000 and antenna) through your roof. 3- Connect the K9000 to 12V and press UP/DOWN on the remote to operate... Pretty straightforward! Except it's not, when at each step you're asking yourself: "But there must be a better way?! 🤔"...

Ticked a small project off the list this weekend 😀

The upfitter switches on the Transit are wayyyyyy too easy to bump into! We didn't want to go through the hassle of relocating them, so we made a cover/guard to prevent flipping them accidentally. It installs in seconds with pre-installed VHB tape:

It's been in the back of our head for years, glad on how it turned out!

Cheers,

I found your site back in 2018 when I built my first van, and now I am upgrading to a transit and so impressed with how far your site has come. It was helpful then and crazy helpful now. I couldn’t bring myself to even take pictures of the first process let alone all this attention to detail. Thanks so much for all your hard work. Happy travels 🙂

I love this website! I’m about to start a conversion project (enclosed cargo trailer to camper). The trailer came from the factory with a small 12v system for interior/exterior loading lights and a vent van. Would you consider consulting on the rest of the project to help me choose the proper equipment for shore power, supplemental solar, and tying into existing 12v system? I’d love to support your adventure and it would be a big timesaver for me!

Hi, we are looking at a van build but the insurance in new Brunswick is around $4,000. Have you dealt with van builders in New Brunswick that same issue. If so, which companies insure the van build.

Just wanted to thank you both for the great site… just purchased a transit and converting into a motovan and your site is by far the best resource I’ve found. Great job and stay safe
