Ford Transit Camper Van Build with EVERY Feature: Vanlife Tour, Full Bath! Sprinter Camper Beware! 

After seeing this guy build a Toyota camper minivan and this Ford Transit camper van I consider him a Genius MacGyver in van builds. This guy is one of the best van builders I ever seen. He really should start a camper van build business with hired employees as he guides them. I think he will be very successful in this business with many customers lined up and booked if he hasn't started his own business building camper vans. My favorite features of this van build is the hidden under the counter shower and toilet setup, the hydraulic up and down table/bed board and the drop down bed. Liked and subscribed!

I really like the hidden bathroom.

Right at the start... let me congratulate you on your absolutely genius concept and execution of the compact shower and loo compartment! This tops anything I've seen! I always felt that the shower area is lost space for 90% of the time. Now it can be used as worktop 90% of the time. Wishing you every success in your business. This is the first video of yours that I have come across. G Ire

Bathroom is exactly what I had always envisioned for my build. Perfect!

Totally amazed by your ingenuity. The bathroom is pure genius. I love how the toilet slides out of the way for showering but still offers privacy when used with the use of the shower curtain. Not to mention it tucking away to give open feel and counter space. Then there’s the bench seating with happy jack bed set up- way more functionality for the small space. All that with the huge kitchen sink, full stove/oven with large propane, 12v AC…the list goes on. I agree with others in this space- you could have your own business just doing these builds. Great work! Also subbed to see what else you design and create

Oh wow, that bathroom! What a great idea that is. I’m so impressed. I want that van! Your aunt will probably love it! If she doesn’t want it…. 🙋‍♀️

Pure Genius! I’ve see a ton of van builds and this is one of the best. Very talented craftsman. 💯

Great shower idea without taking up so much room for the remaining 23.5 hours of the day. You could manufacturer units like that for DIY installers.

That is pretty cool. You made that transit into an RV! That shower was clever.Very nice job.

I like the radius on that cabinet with the grain being consistent all the way through. Nice!

Amazing, so complete and has more than you need. Great job

I've watched hundreds of RU-vid van builds, and have never seen a proper hood vent installed over the stove until now! Nice. Great overall build!

I'm back with more praise! Your sink has so many functions in its set up. Soooo well chosen. Small spaces are very demanding! You need maximum flexibility for storage/stacking/ washing/ soaking/draining/ temporary cover up. Delighted to get your links. G Ire

Love it, especially a bathroom, exelent solution 👍☮️✌️👌and a bed also the best solution

The hidden bathroom is amazing. This guy is awesome. If she had a pro master or sprinter his imagine would have gone wild

That is one of the best shower set ups.. Love the open design. Great Job

You've done an excellent job your aunt live in full time. I like the idea that it's not overwhelming you've taken the Simplicity of Van life and put it into the design of the van. I have liked and subscribed looking forward to Future RU-vid videos

Amazing build. Your family should be proud of your talent. So many great features. Thanks for showing us around 💐

Such an awesome job! I love all the features…has everything you need to be comfortable living on the road. Way to go with the build.

Genius designs! So well done.

The bathroom/shower was perfect! I had a similar general idea of a pop up bathroom, but couldn't think of how to fully execute. Your solution is is very practical and simple. Thank you!

Looks like the labor of love it was! Good job!

Another fantastic project!

I just love watching all these creative van builders like yourself with some incredible ideas. The major manufacturers are in for trouble, as they are expensive and have so many problems and issues.

Amazing job! Truly and love the sink. You take much pride in your work 💜

Wow very nicely done love that bed and bathroom. 💕🎉🦋 Happy new year. 🎈🎆

Dude, that was an amazing build. I love the bathroom idea. I love all the windows. Doesn't make you feel boxed in. You have very nice storage space. The happy jack bed is the best I've seen in a van. I love the idea of tucking it away in the ceiling. The auto table is cool AF...GREAT FREAKING JOB, you killed it. #KapKen

Wow, nice setup 👌 ❤❤

Wow amazing ideas!! Great work! I say you’ve earned bragging rights!! Love this! ❤ 😊

Great build. Create a company. You are genius. Excellent build. Design is perfect. Functional. All the comforts for a person to full time living in it.

Very amazing build, super impressive

Really sharp. Love the bathroom.

这个Rv的格局是我最喜欢的，空间大，不压抑👍

You my friend are a freaking genius

Very nice. I'm sure your aunt is very happy. Very impressive bathroom. Thanks for sharing

Very Fab Indeed 👍🏻 The Ford Transit is an excellent starting point and you did a fabulous job designing the living space 🏆🏁

I love this build!

An Artist of Industry

Had to subscribe! Such a clever and beautiful job! That is the BEST hidden shower and toilet I’ve ever seen!

Love the electric table - would be great for working long hours and want to change elevation. Fantastic build - agree with the other comments, this guy should start his own company; he'd have business booked a year out - seriously.

Very nicely done ❤️

Great van build. Never seem a electric table before. Really like the electric bed. Best of both world. But I really, really like the shower/toilet set up.

OMG you did an awesome job

Amazing job!! The bathroom though...😍

I have to say you are very talented and creative to do this is the very best I never seen any Rv with that type of bathroom you are good I just had to let you know that this is so awesome and amazing you did this now watch how many others come up with this great job now it maybe others out there but yours the very first I have seen this is so beautiful

New subscriber from SD. The BEST!!!

Brilliant bathroom idea!!!

wow... love it.. esp the shower... great job.. your aunt is a very special lady!!! maybe you can adopt me????

Very well done as always!!👏 you’ve also got a great voice too😉

Beautiful

Dam nice work. Nice ideas And your aunt is a lucky gal.

i love this transit build with bedlift 🤩 i hope you could build my future transit van as well with bedlift

I want my transit to be like yours!!!😊

Beautiful job!

If you were based in UK I would definitely hire you to convert my van. Absolutely great build. Thankyou for sharing.

I've been waiting for this to post from the early looks. What a fantastic van. The live aboard features look like they would make life pretty comfy for one or even two folks. Love the drop down bed so you don't have to make it up every day. Does the table remove or tilt up to open the space back there during non meal/working time? Great job!

Well done

Wonderful set up. Love the bathroom set up and that kitchen sink was outstanding! Very useful. The upper bed is great but not fancy on the lower bed. The cushions didn't look nice nor did they look comfortable. Not a fan of partial cushions as they tend to let people or other objects slip in between. I would have preferred cloth cushions but I guess vinyl/leather ones are easier to clean in case of food spills, etc. I saw on another van build where the door handles/pulls were leather straps which to me is a better option to avoid banging into them and getting bruised in such tight spaces. Lighter in weight too. But a great build! Congrats and hope your aunt enjoys it and has many fantastic trips/memories! Good luck with your future design builds Dillon!

Dang. Genius, just genius.

AWESOME!!!

0:42 - Very smart bathroom concept. Nice open plan with bathroom acting double duty as counter space, love it!! I can see this concept working in smaller van spaces. This was my favorite part. Very well done! The vent hood is too far up and might not pull much air. Why not Add a cabinet on top and lower vent? 4:10 - cabinet door is shorter than cabinet. Huh? That piece of detail on that lower bed with the cushion sticking out, should be fixed. Upper bed is a great feature! Aluminum framing on cabinets is a very good feature much lighter and stury. fyi to camera person - Focus on van not man. Hold camera steady. Use a wide angle lens. Pan slowly.

That bed is incredible, it would give me room to put the bikes inside, I suspect. Is that a 144 size? That shower is very clever, great kit idea. And that sink so useable, I agree about those tiny bar sinks, I would be preping and cookin some food in mine. Anyway thanks for that awesome tour.

Great build , this is tbe lay out I'd have too ....

Awesome

Very cool

Very nice build however need to figure something else out besides little white pillows under cushion on bottom bed so it suits the same level as other cushions.

Very impressive build. You're definitely talented. Love the concealed washroom;,really opens up the space. Curved sink cabinet 👍. Smart putting vent fan above stove. Is it possible to install pull out freezer drawer under fridge. I'm Subscibed. One of the best van build layouts on RU-vid.

Excellent bathroom idea. I really like it. The electric bed above the other bed no way could I sleep on the underside lol

Good shower design.

Very well done

New subscriber from Tampa, FL. Nice van 👍🏾😀

Гениально!!! Я сразу подписался.

The curved cabinet is elegant

Boss ! AF !

i like idea for Hidden Full Bath

He is all that!

How very impressive.

Grate job👍👏👏👏, like it,

Could you get that bathroom set up in a minivan? All I need is a bed and a bathroom?

skills...omg

Wow. I have a bad case of insomnia & this vlog didn’t help put me to sleep-lol. You did a great job. Ingenious job w/the shower & toilet. Kitchen’s great too. I would have opted for a larger fridge instead of storage area beneath it but would actually prefer to watch vlog again to be sure about that. Love all the nooks & crannies. So many smart ideas I can’t list them all. I’ve seen loads of van tours & have never seen a Happy Jack used for bunk beds or maybe my memory is just failing at the moment. Why don’t more ppl use Happy Jacks? Are they super expensive? I didn’t check out the show notes yet but will; in any case I’d be grateful for your personal take on that. I think you forgot to show the storage above the bed on one or both sides for clothes etc. Or is there no storage in that area? I’d add just for my personal preference some peel & stick back splash for color or some tile on a feature wall. That said, the sink with all it has is brilliant; I love it. And of course the mini-maxx air fan that has exhaust only w/a light to prevent condensation buildup from the shower was another ingenious feature & one I’ve never seen. Overall, extremely well-done. Oh, love the walnut butcher block countertops btw. You rock. Keep building vans, assuming you enjoy it. Idk where you’re located but wld love you to build one out for me when the day comes. Pls lmk where you are & if you’d build others; will get word out about you/your company. If you don’t love the work, & it seems you do, then nvm. Must have someone who loves their work so it feels more like a pleasure than work even on the hard days. And what’s your name btw?? And who was the quiet young woman? No need to be shy (although w/internet trolls I can’t blame her). Be well & happy,~Marirose, a new sub✌🏼

Great design ideas!, lack of storage space in my opinion.

Hey. Great work. What is the ceiling made from and could you go through your insulation please

I’m amazed at all the van builders who say there is no smell when using these compost, cassette, dry flush, or even incinerating toilets. If there is a smell in your house going to the bathroom, you better believe there will be one going in your van.

PS I love the bifold cupboard doors. They are very under-used even in home kitchens. G Ire

Wow I love your build would you do again and if you would what would you charge for a build like this?

Great build! Can you share a link to your bathroom fan? Thanks!

I have watched ALOT of videos about making a van for van life. This is the best and most intelligent use of space and features. I have seen the elevator bed in the back before. But the restroom is a great idea! Everything else kooks really good as well. What material did you use for walls? Also what size wheelbase and cargo bed length is the van? What did you do for insulation? Thanks for the video! I subbed.

That is an ideal layout that provides all amenaties. I prefer the non extended Transit I presume a person could build that layout minus some of the counter space what would be your thoughts on that? Could you estimate a general cost to have someone build that layout. That layout would be ideal for my wife,myself and our ocassional daughter best I've seen.

Mastermind ! I sit in my van all the time concepttuing and drawing out my buidouts and you did an amazing job on this. can i ask where you bought the shower rod at ? Thanks Carey

Great job, with awesome features! I am converting a transit 350 and was looking for a way to make use of the wall cavities at the top on both sides. What did you use inside of yours?

Could you please sen me a couple more pics of the be lift mounting points? I too have a Transit, an a Happijac on the way to install. I would love to see exactly how you have yours mounted. Basically, I would copy all your van if I could, except for the shower. Not really needing the shower for my build.

Awesome job mate! can you give the link of the range vent hood. thanks

Love this, how can I get one of this built?

Can i be adopted so i can get my crappy van built out? This was awesome!! My van is much smaller but so many great ideas

Pssst, give the shy girl more airtime and your sub count will skyrocket. Kidding not kidding 😂

Beautiful work. ❤️ Are you going to do builds for other customers ? How much would this cost Apx ?

Hi are you in Florida? We would like to ask you some questions… do you do conversions or recommend any place close to Miami. Thank you Grace and Mike

What is your drain valve on your gray tank that does not need power to stay open? I agree with so many other post on here, you did an outstanding job.

Great job. Where does your grey water from your shower go?
