Re: The Zombie Van Build (feat. REDOVAL)

And now we have a sweet, black step bumper for only $150. Ready to get some proximity sensors added.

And the Zombie Van got re-shod.



Check out Scott jumping in to help the tire shop guys pull the ZV out!

Re: The Zombie Van Build (feat. REDOVAL)

We got the Bushwacker flares installed on the rear fenders.



Still have to figure out how to modify the burly brushguard to accommodate the front flares. They really do set the Zombie Van off, though.

Re: The Zombie Van Build (feat. REDOVAL)

Here is the sequence we took to shorten the bumper loops for the front bumper to provide clearance for the flares.

Re: The Zombie Van Build (feat. REDOVAL)

Nobbie posted this a while ago, but here is a collection of snaps when we had the wheels installed. They make a huge difference in the overall look of the ZV.

Re: The Zombie Van Build (feat. REDOVAL)

Here is another one mostly covered by Nobbie, but we ditched the useless rear tank and swapped out the damaged bumper for a replacement step version. The tank is available for purchase for those who can pick it up from Lomita, CA. It is in good condition, but will need a new pickup unit and all new hoses. PM for details.

Re: The Zombie Van Build (feat. REDOVAL)

We got the Fiamma F45S awning installed using 1der's mounts. The mounts allowed for a clean and stable installation with clearance to the CCV top once it was modified. I am quite impressed with these awnings in terms of functionality and ease of use.

It's hard to see, but we also added back-up sensors with an audible proximity warning system (fancy name for a beepy thing) to augment the back-up camera.
