Removing the factory ProMaster flooring is a frequent question we receive. While not easy, it can be done! Here is a quick step-by-step how we removed the flooring in our van.
We decided on Tern Overland windows for our ProMaster’s two sliding doors. We talk about the pros, cons, and a few ‘uh ohs’ getting these windows installed.
We decided to insulate over the cab. To keep it simple we decided to use Havelock Wool. There is not a lot of room for rigid foam, and we wanted to make sure whatever we used would not impair disassembly for future service.
With the extra space in this extended van, we thought it would be nice to be able to bring along a couple of extra people safely, and also be able to use these seats for lounging and eating.
We wanted armrests on the front seats of our new Promaster. I have a glitchy back, and I really like being able to support my back a bit on the armrests when driving. The driver seat has a right-side armrest, but the left side “armrest’ is built into the door and about a mile and a half away from my elbow. The passenger seat does not have any armrests at all.
We like the technical specs of the Sunpower panels and their advanced cell design. We figure the brand-name panel should hold up a little better under adverse conditions, plus there is a hint that the SunPower panels have some better partial shade performance.
Since the propane tank is pretty well tucked under the van, we definitely wanted a remote fill kit. For this part of our build, we used the Nashfuel Propane Remote Fill Kit with Mounting Bracket.
