- If you have the drive and the tools, many projects can be accomplished on your own. In this video I figured and try my hand at a weld-it-yourself bumper from MOVE Bumpers. I was surprised with the total package provided. Military discount, shipping included and all the hard work already done... how could I go wrong? For the money..... MOVE bumpers is hard to beat!
Thank you for serving our country.
Great job! We love the ladder integration!
Cool deal. I gotta do one for mine. Also gotta raptor line my van body lower part and roof (wrapping the rest for now), and will do hvlp/raptor. That looked nice. I was researching it earlier.
I’m impressed.
I just started my build on my 2006 E350 diesel. Mine came from Chicago with only 57K but a goodly amount of rust. My first project is new body and engine mounts. I’ll take my new mounts and lather them up with windshield urethane for more rigidity and longevity as in making them semi solid. I did this same on new Mercedes engine mounts and liked the results.
Maybe I should make a video. Just the first of many van things to do
You should make a video! Could be valuable information to others!
I LOVE the intro!
Gotta build you a rack and ladder!
Awesome video! Did you get a chance to install our door hook? We'd love to hear what you think!
I did! I filmed a video for it but have been insanely busy with work.... Just need to edit the video! Ive been a slacker.... I suck. Im sorry
Thanks for sharing your work! Subscribed.
So nice my hope sir
Thanks man! Doooo it!
the ladder integration like MOVE mentioned is sick! how did you do that? i’m very interested in doing the same thing
gas shielded is so much cleaner than flux core. your bumper looks nice though
Thanks!
Yeah, need to get a bottle for sure!
I was looking at moves website on the bumpers and I'm going that route.
Very satisfied with mine. Get complements everywhere I go.
@@TrackDayChamps928 good deal
That’s great!
What did you fabricate the roof rack from?
1.25 steel tubing. Same thing as the ladder. I know it sounds heavy but its really not. Its .063 wall plenty of strength for a roof rack and ladder while still being light-ish. Whole thing weights maybe 50lbs? I need to weigh the next one I build
Nice looking van!
Also what’s your roof rack?
Hey man, what wheels are those? I saw you mention in another video but can't find it.

@@TrackDayChamps928 thanks 🙏🏻
My hope sir
great video bro
Whats up my fellow Arizonan and fellow veteran! What year of van is that?
this baby is a 2014. I think it was the last year they made them?
@@TrackDayChamps928 did you have to do the 4x4 conversion?
Hey thanks for the videos. The van looks great, but just a couple of questions: I see you put on Cooper tires, and are you happy with them? Are they AT? Do you think you need 10 ply E rated tires? Thanks!
I really like the cooper tires. Yes, they are AT's.... These are ATP-I but the current line is ATP-II. Ive put a TON of miles on these... probably 20-30k... and they still look good and have a good amount of tread depth. Theyve handled great on and off road. Snow is the only issue I have with them.
Hard question about the 10ply. My van is pretty light considering, only 6k. So I dont think it NEEDS 10ply. But with all the offroading we do, i like to tell myself the 10ply helps lol.
I hope that answers your question!
@@TrackDayChamps928 hey man that helps me. Thanks!
What brand rims? And size please.
Love your set up
Wheels are Soft 8 made by Vision and the tire size is 285/70/17…. Pretty much a 33.
Appreciate it!
Doesn’t “dirt nap” mean death?
In the motorsports world dirtnap means you crashed
@@TrackDayChamps928 oh! Okay, man I was not sure. It’s funny to see the differences between these phrases when used by different groups of people. The van looks sick BTW.
