Paneling
First up is the roof paneling. I’m using 6mm Russian birch plywood to cover the walls and ceiling. I used a combination of measuring, cardboard templates, and iteration to fit the panels. As others have pointed out, there are no straight areas on this van, just lots of curves and sweeps to be fitted around.
Insulation
Time to insulate! I’m using various thickness of PolyIso foam board to insulate the van. The sheets are backed with reflective foil on both sides. It’s glued in place using urethane spray foam. It’s important to use “doors and windows” formula as it does not expand quite as much and protects from bending the outer
Hoop Steps
With a 20 inch step up into the front cab it was not going to work out too well over time. I decided to add some Carr hoop steps to the front of the van. As installed these steps are at about 10 inches to the top of the step effectively splitting the distance in
Steering Wheel Cover
I added a “Wheelskins” leather wrap to the Promaster steering wheel. Was fairly easy to do. Gives it a much nicer touch surface than just the plastic wheel. Will see over time how it fairs. I did take a bit of grief from the wife that she has not seen steering wheel covers since the
Power side step
I installed a power extension side step from https://powerdoorandstep.com/ It came quickly and was a reasonable install. The step comes with custom brackets to fit the Promaster so all that you have to do is decide where to locate it and do the install. You need to hold it up into position which I found a
Floor Plan
Here’s one floor plan that we are considering. It’s still evolving as we make decisions on locations and equipment.
Vent fan & Shore Power
Time to cut the big hole in the roof! I used the adapter spacer from Hein on the promaster forums. It sure makes it easy to do. It fills in the roof ribs nicely. I used the recommended 3M window weld urethane to secure it down. Painted the rim after cutting it out with some
Materials
After doing a bunch of research on the forums the plan is as follows…
2018 Ram Promaster
Well, to kick off this project here’s where it all starts. I picked up a 2018 Ram Promaster. It’s a 136″ wheelbase van (the shorty) which will make a nice cozy platform to build out our traveling van.
