    Cool build. And I love the fact that your son is always around to see his daddy working. Here's a lucky kid.

      @@JustMe-pl1tz my front bumper is actually from weldtec designs.. I personally had the worst possible 47k experience from Jeremy Johnson on my brand new 2017 at the time 3500 and he is the total opposite of a stand up honest business man I would never suggest anyone do business with Jeremy Johnson with weldtec designs.. if anyone does choose to give him your hard earned money. I would never pay him before you get to inspect and drive your van first. They are complete amateurs while portraying his business as the best in the van building industry. Not too take up too much more of your time but I’ll just name one, he drilled straight down through my wiring harness when installing my 4wd shifter on the floor and never even test drove my van before I payed 5 K to have it shipped back to me in NY in a enclosed car carrier after pocketing my 47K . Everything tied to wiring harness in my BN van at the time didn’t work, neither did 4wd work linkage was all wrong and kept clanking back into 2wd . There are other great van bumper builders out there just as good with fab or better

    Wow your van is so nice I love it . I just bought a 2018 Chevy express 2500 passenger van . 135” wheelbase with the one bench seat too. It has Goodyear wrangler durotrack tires on it. Of course it’s white. How much did it cost to ring line the hole van if u don’t mind me asking . The green looks really good and the woodwork on the inside looks awesome is it cedar? I like the rear lovers too very cool . I’m getting lots of ideas from your awesome van 👍👏🤟

    • @Thebigjaunt
      @Thebigjaunt  2 роки тому +1

      Awesome, I got a quote from a big shop for 4.5-5k for the liner but I found a someone to do it for 3500 but the quality in the details is definitely not as good as it would have been if I spent the extra money, yeah the wood is just sanded cedar

    • @Thebigjaunt
      @Thebigjaunt  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks! I paid to have it done and it was 3200 but I got a couple other quotes for 4500 from the bigger shops. For the shore power I’m just putting in a plug on the exterior that will run to two power cords inside. To install if you just use a 2 inch hole saw and drill a hole then it bolts together.

    I had to get rid of my big tires. They just rubbed too much under flex. I have a 2019 Chevy express 3500 just like yours, but I am having problems mounting the roof Rack I fabricated out of Extruded Aluminum. I dont feel like drilling into my van, but all the solutions I see on the internet are ugly and raise the roof rack a lot!. Any advice? I am almost giving up with that.

    • @Thebigjaunt
      @Thebigjaunt  Рік тому +1

      You probably wouldn’t be happy with the way I did it haha. I just drilled holes in the roof and mounted it with skateboard wheels under the rack for spacers, it worked well but I’m not super picky.

    • @69sound81
      @69sound81 Рік тому

      @@Thebigjaunt yeah, not very keen on that idea, but last night I figured out something to do it. I used a combination of aluminium plate and extruded aluminium for the roof rack itself and today when I got to work on it I figured I could atatch some extra extruded aluminium on the outside of the rack to clamp on to it. I am still fabricating the thing. It will end up being 12 foot long, 5 feel wide (or as wide as the van allows it to be cuz it tapers towards the back) and it will look a lot like a prinsu rack, but the cost right now is around 700 usd (i pay premium prices just because I live in Mexico, probably it could be like 500 in the US). I will update when I finish so that anyone can use the info if they need to
