How to Convert a Ford Explorer into a Camper

Model: Ford Explorer U152, MK 3 - Years 2002-2005
Part: Checks and maintenance

The video shows how to convert your Ford Explorer into a small camper for your holidays. Remove the middle seats and lower the rear seats. Build as shown in the video or have your small kitchenette made, where the sink is nothing less than a salad bowl with a hole connected to a pipe. Attach the kitchen to two supports fixed to the bodywork of your Ford. Construct the chair/table. You will also need to design the sleeping area. It should be a foldable structure as shown in the video, where each piece of both the kitchen and the chair/table will contribute to increasing the sleeping space.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
