How to Convert a Ford Transit Van into a Camper

Model: Ford Transit MK 8 - Years 2014-2024
Part: Checks and maintenance

As shown in the video, you will need to be skilled carpenters and designers to convert your Ford Transit van into a camper. First, you must build a level wooden floor and clad the entire interior in wood. Before that, you will also need to open three side windows to let light in and a roof window as shown in the video. You will create a control unit for the lighting and where to run all the cables to power the various appliances. At the bottom of the van, beneath the double bed, create space for storage where you can keep water, a pull-out table with drawers, a bench seat towards the side door, and the kitchen with drawers.
