You keep saying "I don't really have this organized yet" while having the most organized van I've ever seen. :P
Thanks bud, I live my life always saying that whatever I work on is not done yet. All of my work should be redone in my eyes because it just never seems finished to me...........
@@HVACRVIDEOS I totally get that...
HVACR VIDEOS O.C.D. lol, it’s made me a lot of money! It makes it look like I take pride in my work, what people just don’t know is I can’t help it, even if I will be the only person to ever see it, I still have to make it look good. lol, I have spent too much time making sure conduit is plum and level just to bury it.
You think that is organization? come see the standard of organized at my house it’s very low to the point where there is a frigin pc on the ground and on a box.
5:18 WOW The drawer opens up forever! Great storage
Yes me: whattt
Drawer: yes iam rly long
Me: get it xD
Nice looking van. If you pulled up to a jobsite and I saw that I would know right away that you were the right guy for the job

Congratulations on the new van! There is nothing better than an organized work vehicle and tool cases. It not only increases efficiency, but tells other people that you are prepared and don't mess around. Very professional!
I start out with those intentions, but at 66 yrs old, I tend to "fall of the wagon." That's impressive
this is the most organized van I've ever seen !
A good organization mean a good work !
I'm french and it's hard to understand everithing in your vids but they are soooo interesting !
That’s the neatest service van I’ve ever seen . I wish I Could be that organized .
Wow the cleanest set up I’ve seen. I’m a auto mechanic and we have a few accounts with different a/c repair companies. And their vans are nasty. Tools stacked on the floor parts everywhere. And they stink lol. Very nice set up.
Thanks bud its clean because its new
kyle griffis all comes at a price
Yep

Just an idea, but I had 3 each, pieces of 6 or 8" black ABS pipe mounted to the top roof in-between my ladder racks that were on each side. The black ABS pipe had female threaded caps with air holes drilled in them, on each end, this is where I kept my 10 -12' ridged copper, Schedule 40 PVC, and all-thread, uni-strut Etc. Also, I used All-thread with a piece of pipe over it on the top racks to put my wire on, that way I could just pull out what I needed and cut it off. This may help you out in your pipe and wire organization. :) Sorry, a bit of an OCD about the organization in my truck too. 30+ year Master HVACR tech. and my van was only done when I had to retire from too many Heat strokes here in Phonenix Arizona in this dang 120+ temps. But looking good brother.
I don't work near this area, but I love the organization and all the information off your videos! This one in particular is a medicine for ocd people!
Instead of a GoPro, get one of the two-channel BlackVue dashcams, with one camera out the front, and one out the back. You can both get B roll and useful dashcam/rearcam footage should you need it.
Also helps against break-ins.
Late to the party. Thanks YT recommendations.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'm actually setting up a new van and was getting ready to look for a dashcam
I got the blackvue dr750s-2ch, because it was cheaper than the dr900s. Depending on the back door, might want the dr750s-2ch with the outdoor camera.
I like how you set your van up. I like the racks for all the recovery/refrigerant tanks as well as the custom shelves for all the repair parts.
I really like being organized and professional. It was very very nice
This van is spotless. Have to work OT to keep it that clean.
Great to get a fresh start like that; the compartment pack storage setup you built is awesome. I’ve had the swing down ladder rack and still prefer the basic weather guard series; easier to shoulder the ladder onto the side rail, is what it is. Drove an 02’ Chevy express with the 4.3L v6 for 10 years, upgraded to a 2012 with the 5.3L v8 W/ AWD; looks identical to what you’ve got; love the van, hauls ass and hasn’t let me down yet! 185000 miles so far, Hope she treats you just as well!
Bro that van is super duper clean ass heck what are you talking about . Thanks for sharing you gave me some good ideas…….
I just setup a new van and changed a few things up, stay tuned
Looks great! I stack my wire spools on 1/2” emt with a connector on each end and stand it up at the end of my shelves. Put the spools on with the wind facing the same way. You can take it out and put it inside an open stepladder and combine the ones you want. Or, just take one out to carry inside. 👍
I love your latter rack it’s awesome and you have a very organized set up for you tools looks very clean and neat professional
I’m a sprinklerfitter and piping is my everyday job so in our service vans we have a wood floor with 2 open compartments for piping up to 4” and unistrut and two other skinny drawers for rod and whatever else. I don’t know how much piping or conduit you do but you should make a 18”-24” drawer that goes the length of the van floor for it.
Omg..! Very good organized and functional. Iam soo jealous now..
Please keep doing like that's videos.
Damn son, I am impressed. Clean, pristine HVACR machine!
I have been cut the bottom 2 or e inches of plastic tubs that fit my shelfs and putting my chemicals in there. You can just take it out when you go to the wash and rinse it out. Works well. Nice set up man.

That and use some pig mat or oil mat to soak up and spills that might happen
I like the partition. I bet the cab is quieter. You don’t have to listen to your stuff falling off the shelf making you nuts
Yeah so far so good. Thanks so much for watching I am going live this evening 2/18/19 at 5PM (Pacific time) to discuss recent uploads and answer questions from the week. Come on over and check it out th-cam.com/video/78KjceoUwlc/w-d-xo.html
I don’t follow no one but I do respect you and look up to you thank for all you do brother
Thanks bud!
So organized so professional, that truck kicks ass.. I enjoy watching ur videos and picking up some interesting tips..I just organized my truck but yours is next level stuff!!
Thanks bud
Sick man! On the chemical cabinet maybe have a liner with the sealant spray (as seen on tv), it really seals good actually. Then have your bottles laying on top. Could be a thin metal that you make a box for inside the cabinet and then spray it with sealant, let dry and WALAH!
I was wondering where the hand truck is... then I saw that nice cart. That works even better!
Plastic Tubs - Work great for Keeping chemicals , grease & oil contained and is easily cleaned. Use for Wd-40, Vacuum pump oil , 1 - gallons Condenser coil cleaners etc. , spray cans , pipe dope.

Love the van setup! That organizer rack you made was clean.... I want one!
Those ladder drops are awesome get the other one it’s well worth it I love mine maybe move the extension to the side that doesn’t have it
Man lm so jealous, I wish I had a van the company I work for bought trucks, absolutely no room. Looks great 👍🏻
Thanks bud

Drop down Ladder rack!!! NICE!
Very nice . Very clean . Sure does make me miss my GMC.....
Be safe my friend.
Keep up the good work.
For the hook on your pack I had to think about some clips we used in some comparable strips on aircraft, only those had the round detents so nothing could slide.
We had clips with just a ring on top we used for strapping down cargo.
Really nice set-up 👍 Shows that you take pride in your job.

Plenty of room sunday night. Monday night there's not enough room... It seems like there's eventually never enough room!!! lol. That's an awesome setup though!!!
Hope you park that baby in a secure area lots of money in there.
Hopefully in a Sideyard or back yard or garage. if not , Need Cameras and motion lights on house. trained on van at All times. with Wifi alerts & Dvr recording.
Yeah it's locked behind a gate at my house everynight, Thanks so much for watching I am going live this evening 2/18/19 at 5PM (Pacific time) to discuss recent uploads and answer questions from the week. Come on over and check it out th-cam.com/video/78KjceoUwlc/w-d-xo.html
Sick Van bro..it looks pretty organized
Thanks bud it doesn't look that way Friday afternoon though.....
Thanks for watching bud ,I will be going live this evening 2/25/29 @ 5:PM (west coast time) on TH-cam to discuss my most recent uploads, answer questions from emails received and the chat. Come on over and check it out if you can

@@HVACRVIDEOS yeah aren't all our vans on Fridays..lol
Love your video , your set up is top notch. Greta job
Hope it wasn't said already but use scrap carpet for shelf liners 11x44 I believe. fit in there a treat. Helps keep the noise down as well
RE Pipe Storage, in the UK you can get what is a lockable drain pipe that sits on the roof racks for carrying about long tube and pipe. Keeps it out of the van it's self avoiding damage.
I will be going live on TH-cam this evening 4/15/19 at 5:PM (pacific time) if you can come over and watch the stream th-cam.com/video/Ft4L_-G7zzI/w-d-xo.html
If you use the 8' more than the extension just put the 8' on the drop down, and the extension on the rack. Also if you've never had an extension ladder on the roof before you're going to want to shoot some expanding foam in the rungs. They howl like a bianchi at highway speeds! Lol
Yeah for sure the wind howl drives me nuts, I did that on my last van!

figure out a dowel mount system for wire rolls. You would have to determine max gauge you'll need which will determine the max roll size or a vertical rather than horizontal to tuck into a corner. Don't forget a brake for the rolls (spring clip or similar, you don't want them unrolling), consider a roof mount (inside) it would keep wiring handy but out of the way. Otherwise neat and tidy... but for how long when you get busy. This is over a year old still catching up.
Nice job on truck. My two cents, you can use a piece of conduit with connectors on each side to lock wire spools in and just stand it vertically. It is quite the space saver and cheap. Dig your aluminum rack for Stanley cases!!!
Thanks bud
Any update, "almost" two years later? Would love to see how the van looks today, what you changed and figured out was better or worse and so on =)
Good s
Very impressive van set up & well stocked 😉
The one item that worried me was the uniweld torch kit.
it is built with a hose reel that snaps into tank holder shell body.
I've seen these two pieces separate ,and at an most dangerous time while being roped up to the roof by the handle .
You'll be on the roof and the hose reel snaps loose from the weight of the tanks against it .
I'd purchase a one piece solid tank caddy .
Just my thoughts and experiences .
Great point and I have seen the same thing

When this video first started, I asked myself is he a Milwaukee or Dewalt fan, and the answer is Dewalt. For a moment there I thought there was lot of “Black and Yellow” tools besides Dewalt, you had Fieldpiece and Stanley it’s like you were keeping the color scheme “Black and Yellow”. So I wouldn’t be surprised if you do a “Black & Yellow” van wrap on the exterior of the van. Lol

Surprise you did not get an extended van. Those are the best. The new cargo Ford vans are pretty amazing. When you get a little richer you’ll have to step up to one of those
WOW love the van nice
Looking at your Stanley storage cases. I know you probably won’t need to remove more than one or two in a normal setting. But the bungee cords I would find annoying. If you had an extra couple inches you could have a stop at each end so you had to lift the Stanley box UP to get it out and never deal with the bungees. Or one vertical bar tall enough to stand in front of the whole rack that pivots out of the way. Just a thought. Everything looks great
Bro that is the sweetest set up i have seen..... amazing....👍👍

Hey Chris. It’s Blaze from Escondido. Man. What a beautiful SoCal day. My wife and I played hooky from church ⛪️ and are at the swap meet in Huntington Beach at Golden West College. I like what you’re doing with your van. The round spools 🧵 of wire if they’re close to the same diameter you might want to consider using a stick of conduit and attaching it to the lip of your shelves with hardware. I did this when I used to purchase my roles of 12&14ga at Johnstone. Again great video. Have a great Sunday. God bless.
Thanks bud , yeah my wife was just saying how nic either was and how she wanted to get outside too.
Lets see this same walk thru Friday night!! Lol great set up good job!
You are correct its clean because it's new Friday it will be a mess!! :-)

I'm jealous....VERY Nice! Keep it clean!
I would get a dash cam too. If you get one that faces forward, one that points back to face the driver, and one that looks out the back window it could save you!
Yeah that is on the list of things to do for sure, Thanks so much for watching I am going live this evening 2/18/19 at 5PM (Pacific time) to discuss recent uploads and answer questions from the week. Come on over and check it out th-cam.com/video/78KjceoUwlc/w-d-xo.html

Definitely trial and error system for organization. Keeping minimal but all necessary and reveleant tools and equipment. I'm curious about your second smaller Veto bag(on the shelf) is that the MCT? Im sure you love it. Maybe a short review?
Good vid ! I have those same Stanley boxes & a cart just like yours. i Really like the stanley boxes & my cart. they are sturdier than they look. ive been trying to figure out a soft copper storage idea too. what i think im going to do is buy a Huge pelican like case and put the rolls inside it. you could do the same and then slide it under your inside racks. i like keeping the air & sunlight away from my soft copper. it stays nicer inside my Drivers area i noticed rather than in the back of the truck. i Label My Stankey boxes on the Handle with a Sharpie. it works good. i have a video of it. stanley boxes. i Drive a service truck , so my setup is a little different. i recommend - Getting a Full length 3 stack drawer unit. u can never have enough storage. then put 10" pvc pipe secured by unistrut to your back wall area and put your nitrogen in the plastic pipe horizontally above your drawer unit.
Very near and tidy !!
When's the finished product video coming out love the set up you have so far looks great
Depending on how often you need a spool of wire and want to take it with you and not just a piece I store mine on a peice of rebar through the holes making into a holder/dispenser tho I work on the ground so a trip to the truck isn't so bad Im probably a little late for this van but maybe the next one
Great video... tons of ideas here... guys are really going to like this one !!
I know this video is a year old so not sure if you figured out what to do with the copper, but I would highly recommend copper caddy!!
Please, do another van tour after 2 years. To let us see what have you changed, reorganized,... . Greetings from Slovakia 🇸🇰
That metal box in the cab that was empty, you could make into battery charging station. Mount your inverter and all your chargers in there.
That's a sick setup! Glad I found this channel mate. I'm yet to find anyone with a setup like this in Australia. We seem to be lacking in the organisation side of things....

Looking sweet Chris! 👍🏻👍🏻
С обновкой. Удачи в работе
Sick van brotha! Love it man
Thanks bud it's a work in progress
Love from India 🇮🇳
I'd cover over that window that goes between the back and the cab. Less likely to get broken into if they can't see what might be in there. Also you could always set your clothes rack up behind the passenger seat if you're running low on space in the back, those vans have a ton of leg room even with the passenger seat scooted up a bit.
Great point and I probably will , Thanks so much for watching I am going live this evening 2/18/19 at 5PM (Pacific time) to discuss recent uploads and answer questions from the week. Come on over and check it out th-cam.com/video/78KjceoUwlc/w-d-xo.html
That’s a cool van. I had one of those. It drove like a bus. I go over a big bump and all ur shit goes flying. I got. Transit 150. It drives much better. U may want a 250 or 350 in the future.
In my old van, behind the driver’s seat was the pantry. Beanie weenies, little Debbie you name it. Even had a microwave at one time.......damn, I miss install! I had room to spare. Not any more.....smh, now half the floor is full of crap, barely have room for an ODU, lol
I like the setup a lot. Nice!
for absorbent mat, have you looked at pig mat? or other names google black absorbent mat, usually for chemicals. might be what your looking for?
When I would run over a big bump or RR track and something would fly loose, I would try to guess what it was by the sound it made as it hit...
Like that set up
Thanks
Sweet setup

Nicely laid out van you might want to get rid of the rubber floor they're a pain in the ass I put down 3/4 plywood in my van material slide easier also there's always oil spills it just gets absorbed into the wood doesn't really have a chance for the oil to spread everywhere. Also the coffin drawers from American Van they're nice to have as I have had them in the past the issue with them is the locking mechanism sometimes the drawers fly open cuz the van and the drawers flex overtime easy fix just attached deadbolts

I regret not getting two refrigerant racks in my 2020 Express when it was being outfitted.
is more than a year old when you made this video, i hope you change the layout of the nitrogen, acetylene and other flammable gas tanks, behind your seat is not the best place in the van to put them. I have the same work van purchased on January 2019. tanks are far in the back for safety.
overall nice work van and set up! always looking for your videos.
Nice. I keep my 8 and 6 ft ladder on top. Stacked. Head room is better.
Agreed ! I Vote --- Put All Ladders on Top of the Van. keep inside open area , for headroom and putting a new condenser unit inside or a New ice machine etc.

What are those handheld bins with dividers you used to make custom "drawers" of stuff?
I think building something like that for my home parts organization would be amazing - organize small component parts resistors diodes etc, hardware screws/bolts/etc, nails, fasteners, etc. so you can pull out the appropriate type of fastener and take it out to where you're working or component parts set it on your bench.
Soft copper solution:
Buy yourself a 10 or 12 foot long piece of 4" or 5" PVC pipe with an end cap and thread cap fitting and mount it with clamps on the ladder rack
I would replace the window with a metal plane and bolt down the chargers on it :)
Dear God... Stop apologizing foreign SO ORGANIZED. ; ) Over thinking is a sign of brilliance. Much success to you.
Not foreign, for being. Damn auto correct.
good job
Nice really nice 👏👏👏👏
Do a video of that Inverter charger for your van that will be cool. Thinking getting one for my work van.
once I get it mounted and finish up the van I will release a full van tour. Thanks so much for watching I am going live this evening 2/18/19 at 5PM (Pacific time) to discuss recent uploads and answer questions from the week. Come on over and check it out th-cam.com/video/78KjceoUwlc/w-d-xo.html
Looks good
The ladder rack is bitchin! I'd pay the extra money for both ladder racks, my opinion? I know you were happy getting the new van.
I am jealous of how lucky you are not to have to manage a van full of parts. Also #FieldpiecePorn
