    Excellent as usual!!! As a long time RV electrician (Marathon Coach Inc. 15 years) your work is great. A slight technical improvement would be to flip your crimper so the round side (as opposed to the pin side)is on the “top” of the ring terminal. The “bottom” of the terminal is solid so the pin cannot separate the folded part of the terminal. This is hard to see as the manufacturers add a thin solid tube over the crimp section. Clearly not a big deal but for future projects a slightly better way to do it. Great looking van!

    “Doesn’t take me long to look at something” i wonder how many subs remember that story. Still kills me every time

    Just in case you didn't know in the 7 pin trailer hitch the pin in the center (pin 7) is usually backup power.

    I learned something new today. Never really seen anybody take a pair of pliers and take the extra part off a zip tie. That's a pretty good technique.

    Your uncle is a smart man. Over 40 years ago I was replacing an antenna on the roof of an old 2 story farmhouse with a metal roof. My feet slipped out from under me and I started sliding down. About halfway down my pants pocket caught on a nail that was sticking up, and that slowed me down just enough to grab the extinction cord that we were using. That saved me from a bad fall.

    I'm sorry Cody but you had me chuckling through the rest of that video after grabbing that bulb, it just reminded me of doing exactly the same when I fitted spotlights to come on with high beams on my Jimny. Pain can often be the quickest form of self teaching I find...

    I don't remember if you've mentioned this in the past, but you did a neat trick that my dad taught me with zip ties. Once you secure it, rather than cutting off the excess, use some pliers and twist the "tail" until it comes off. That way, the part that's left over isn't super sharp, which is especially useful in situations like this, where you may end up reaching into that space some time in the future and forgetting those ties are there.

    You ought to switch the halogen reverse bulbs on the transit to LED bulbs x3

    3M electrical tape is the best. Solder with 3M super 33 is industry standard. It's rate up to 600 V. It should work great for a 12V system. Guys love to act holier than though at home behind their computer.

    That's funny about the extension cord, that's my most famous saying whether it be with an extension cord or anything I'm dragging on the ground that's gets caught on something. " if i was falling off a cliff that would not of got caught on there", If i didn't have bad luck, i wouldn't have any luck at all"

    Hey Cody, another thing you could do that you may find useful is add a diode inline with that blue wire with a switch downstream of it, do this for both the upper and lower lights, and you can use them as utility lights without your brake lights coming on and without having to put it in reverse.

    Talk about a dull moment. I said what are you doing out loud when you grabbed the bulb. 💡🔥

    Need to get to the Milwaukee M18 heat gun. Comes in handy with those shrink connectors.
