Hey Y'all

I'm in process of designing my camper build, and found this place. I'll be stealing ideas, and bugging for more.

My advice:
Build to the usage. It's easy to go overboard and overspend.
Do as much work as possible yourself. Shops are crazy expensive.
Lift it!

I have driven through that town a couple times.

As for the van I have spent the last couple months fixing the mechanical issues, planning, plotting, and redesigning the van a couple times before I did the first mock up. Most, if not all will be DIY. It's what I'm good at.

I just did the Weldtec lift on my van last week. Very easy. I was thinking about doing a 4x4 conversion but I only have the 5.4. I think it would have been just too much for the motor here at altitude.
Have fun with the build, it gets addicting!
