Your channel is a huge blessing for my case of conversion! An Indian commercial vehicle maker had licensed Mercedes T1 model rights to produce it for Indian market, and seeing that most conversions are of sprinter van which is non-existent in Indian market, so seeing your van match my van model and to see the same ideas being executed on it, it is really resourceful to know that! Cheers and all the best with your conversion and van life!
Thanks a lot! I have seen photos of the Force Traveller, but never seen the van in reality. I was always wondering when they changed the original Mercedes front to the modern front, because I couldn't find this info online. Are there many camper conversions in India or are camper vans very rare? Cheers, Mike
@@CubeofCars Yes Force did there own modifications\uplifts later to stay with current time's demands after selling the old front for a long time. The Indian camper van scene has just begun, it's now slowly picking up, but still quite a handful of people. We have a long way to go, it's a bit challenging here due to the density of population and no awareness around it. Let's see, the handful of people and the pandemic has changed perception.
@@CubeofCars look up on the net. When aluminium comes in contact with steel it will error through electrolys over time. A few years. So always isolate with an insulator or bolts that are coated for use in aluminium. It’s a well known issue.
Very professionally done sir. And the video was fun to watch. I am a person who loves tools but I'm not familiar with your beautiful ratchet and socket set. I would really appreciate knowing what brand they are. Thank you.
Super Video, danke dafür. Ich bin auch am überlegen, den Urinbehälter der TTT direkt in den Abwassertank laufen zu lassen. Habe aber von verschiedenen Seiten gehört, dass es dann zur unangenehmen Geruchsbelästigung kommen könnte, wenn sich der Urin mit dem Wasser vermischt. Zumindest bei der Entleerung, die Siphons sollten ja als Geruchsbarriere nach innen ausreichen.
Hi Ralf, ich muss natürlich auch erst sehen, wie sich das im Alltag bewährt, aber innen kann es mit den Siphons bei Waschbecken und Klo eigentlich nicht stinken. Beim der Entleerung wäre es mir völlig egal. Bleibt als Risiko die Tankentlüftung unter dem Van... da muss man mal sehen. Notfalls würde ich mir da noch einen Aktivkohlefilter an den Lüftungsschlauch basteln... LG, Mike
The guidelines on the disposal of urine must vary by region. I know that in the US and at least some other countries, urine is considered blackwater and must be disposed of as such. OTH, I'll readily step off a hiking trail and avail myself of a bush or tree, so there is that.
Du hast recht, es wird Zeit.... Eigentlich habe ich auch schon Rohmaterial für zwei weitere Videos, jetzt müßte ich nur mal die Zeit finden, um daraus präsentable Videos zu basteln.... ;)
Thank you for all the videos, they are very informative! I must say, your 310 is in excellent shape. Greetings from your neighbor in The Netherlands
Wish i had money for you to build my van you pay so much attention to detail..
I am working much too slowly, so I could never do this as a business ;)
add a riser tube to your breather/overflow so that braking doesn't foul your ball valve handle...

enjoying your campervan conversion videos. great attention to detail. well done 👍
refering to grey water as dummy piss made me chuckle.
Good tidy job just ensure isolation between the aluminium and dissimilar metals to prevent corrosion
Thanks :) There is no contact between the aluminium box and the chassis of the van. But there are steel bolts in the box. Is that a problem?

First time I've heard the phrase "dummy piss" lmao

Hey wann kommt das nächste Video? Ich bin sehr gespannt wie es weiter geht!✌️

At what temp will the water freeze in this tank? Cheers
At normal freezing temperatures. If you wanna use it at these temperatures you will need some kind of heater like this one:
