White Butte - Tallest Peak in North Dakota #vanlife #tallestpeaks #whitebutte
Просмотров 4192 года назад
This is an adventure up North Dakota's tallest peak "White Butte". It is a super cool hike. The level of amazement we got out of this hike was totally unexpected. Topping off at 3,501 ft with a trail of only 3.5 miles and elevation gain of 468 we weren't really expecting much. But, the views and landscape changes and the unexpected beauty had us floored. It was really one of the coolest mountai...

Mount Katahdin - Maine's Tallest Peak #vanlife #visitmaine #katahdin
Просмотров 2322 года назад
Mount Katahdin - Maine's tallest peak was a really cool adventure. It is located in northern Maine in Baxter State park. My adventure was a little more unconventional as far as my start and finish went... I think. It started and ended at Abol Pines Campground. The route I mapped out adds on about an extra 10 miles than would be planned from the traditional trailhead at (for me) Abol Trail Head....

This is a super easy ladder installation for Promaster van's.

This ladder is designed to hook on the upper and lower part of the door and clamp together to avoid drilling! It is amazing! It's...

Great videos guys! I'm going to be installing mine soon. My question is about pump noise, we see you guys bobbing your head to the sound of the pump in your video but I'm guessing the 2 floor covers were not installed? when everything is installed is it noisy? I've heard people complain about it. Thanks!
Been there in August 2024 - its not very hot
Are those Bilstein shocks? What difference did those make?
Why did you edited out the transitional part where she gets off the ladder onto the roof? That's the most dangerous part.
What’s the last 10 seconds of the video for? To make me unsubscribe? Totally weird.
If that’s what you’re feeling. 👋🏻
Hola Amigo
Hey guys great vids, just wondering what your longer term thoughts on the sumos and supersprings? I have a 159 2500 non extended and pretty close to capacity loaded 8700lbs, wondering if the helper springs are needed along with sumos and idk if I need yellow or black if I do the helper springs. Just wanted to hear your thoughts.
There is no ‘lift’ gain as the axle is still at the same level unfortunately.
This vidio had potential to be informative . However you chose to clown around instead of showing the entire process. Important pieces were not shown, like the actual placement of the brackets on the bumper.
Ya missed the big pool just around the corner with a large waterfall :) great video!
Perfecto, solo el wc de sacar y meter no me convence en un camión tan grande. Saludos
A year later 👀 how’re they holding up?!
Hows your Webasto working after 3 years? Any problems at elevations above 6K feet? Curous about long trerm performance.
Hey there, sorry we’re just getting back to ya. Our Webasto is still running strong. No issues running above 6k. We’ve always run our heater on the highest setting. I think that’s the way to go to avoid carbon buildup. We did just recently over the summer, remove & clean the Webasto just to maintain & for curiosity sake. We hardly had any buildup. Hope this was helpful. Let us know if ya have any other questions. 😊
@@NomadderWhereVan thanks for the reply! I just installed an Espar AS3 B2L in my Ford Transit. It was an arduous task for me but all went well and Its working great so far. Looking forward to some winter camping.....after I return from Baja.in a few weeks.
Do you mind me asking what kind of bumper you have?
For god’s sake, always use jack stands or blocks under the vehicle. Never get under a vehicle supported by only a jack. It’s a great way to die!
great video but could not subscribe because of the nose rings !!
Hey there, Thanks! That’s cool! We wouldn’t want someone joining us if their going to be judgmental based on our appearances. Thanks for watching! Have a great day!
HE HAS A POINT, JEWELRY SHOULDN'T BE WORN ON INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS, HOWEVER THE VIDEO DID PRESENT A LOT OF INDUSTRIOUS ENERGY, SO WHAT THE HELL, ON THE PROJECT THE TIRES ARE MOST CRITICAL THEN COMES THE SUSPENSION UPGRADES, WHICH CAN BE VERY TRICKY IN TERMS OF FUNCTIONALITY, LONGEVITY AND POTENTIAL STRESS THEY MAY PUT ON THE REST OF THE SUSPENSION..........GOOD LUCK WITH IT ANYWAY.. @@NomadderWhereVan
What brand lights did you purchase?
Hey there, we purchased the Alpena TerraLED lights. Pretty sure we picked them up in Walmart. They work awesome!
You may be lifting the body higher with the new springs, but the rear axle will always remain low unless you increase the wheel total diameter. Ultimately your going to get worse handling as your rising the CofG. Now if you had an air suspension replacement for the ride assistors you could pump up for off road & lower for on the road. Thanks for the video, always great to watch your experiences.
What is your Van Weight?
Hey Carl, our Van currently sits around 8,000lbs
Fun video, it's gorgeus place, we are going to North Dakota this summer, thank you so much for sharing your adventure. Cheers from Rome, Italy.
Ohhhh Thanks so much! We had so much fun traveling through North Dakota. This hike was super easy & so rewarding, & Make sure you check out Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Safe & Happy Travels 😊
look amazon they don't come as your. where can i buy this set
Hey there, sorry we are just seeing this. We purchased ours directly from Supersprings International Awesome company and the customer service is top notch
Watching for the accents!! 🙌🏼🤣👍🏼
Hahaha!!! Hellz yea! I love it!!!
Do you only apply to front tires or all 4 ?
These ones only go on the fronts. They have rear sumo springs too. They are a game changer! We haven’t put that video out yet but will be soon. The super springs are amazing, too!
Love the Mass accents and you may have sold me on the prime design. I need easy and the hammock idea I never thought about! 👍🏼 I know these are pricier but seem sturdy and easier to climb down than the Surco’s - easier install too
Hahaha!!! Thanks! I’m psyched you enjoyed the video and our accents 😉! The prime design is awesome! Honestly just for the fact that you don’t have to drill new holes in the van it’s worth the extra price! This thing hasn’t budged since we put it on either. It is super sturdy, easy to install, and awesome! I think you’ll LOVE it!
I used an old socket the would fit over the C-clamp to compress the spring. I cut a slot in the socket to fit over the end of the clamp and used mu drill to to tighten the c-clamp. Doing it by hand is almost impossible.
That is awesome! Sounds like you came up with an awesome system for getting that thing on there! There we’re definitely a few steps I would loved to have streamlined too. If you got a picture and want to share it shoot it up here! Psyched you put the springs on! They are a game changer!!!
Wonder. Can you install on the right door?? Great video!
Thank you! We really appreciate the kind words. You definitely can install it on the right hand side without a problem. The biggest reason for putting it on the left is that we would rather have the pulling when we climb up there on the inner door rather than the outer. We didn’t want to risk any gapping happening on that door.
Another awesome video! We enjoyed the trip with you guys, thanks for inviting us along. Love you, keep enjoying life!❤
Thank you so much! We really appreciate the kind words and you are welcome anytime!
What if I ordered the premium suspension option when I ordered my van through the dealership? Do these still fit on them?
Hey there, we’re not 100% sure about that. Not sure what the premium suspension entails. I’d give @superspringsinternational a jingle. They have top notch customer service. Hope that helps! Let us know how you make out
That’s my dog too but she can’t swim well so she just starts cry
I can't find this digging through comments, but what year is the promaster?
Hey Nicholas, our Promaster is a 17
Good video... I enjoyed this video more than you guys did !!!
Hahahah! Thanks so much! Happy you enjoyed the video😊
Will it interfere with ADAS system?
It hasn’t messed with our van at all. It’s been working out perfect. 👍🏼
My question was answered, and Dave is a good sport. The wave II and the mini wave require lottery win also. Living vicariously through you for those gems!
Yea, they were! But there are some awesome spots right around there to explore too! You could stop if you got the time to go for the in office lottery permits, too.
Does the Wave II and the mini wave require winning the lottery too? Or are they open to anyone at anytime?
They do! I’m going to try and DM you now. Give you some amazing spots for you to check out on the way.
I can’t DM you directly through RUclips. Hit me up on Instagram real quick @nomadderwherevan . I’d love to find out your route and give you some cool spots to rip through.
Hey Billy and Jessie, thanks for sharing! I will not be hiking Humphrey’s peak BUT Kevin and I will be driving Allie’s car from Cape Cod to Santa Rosa CA, where she has accepted a travel RN assignment. I’m rewatching your videos to see what else I want to experience along the way. We are leaving the Cape in November for about 12-13 days and will fly back from SF or OAK. Hoping to hit some of your Arizona highlights❤
Oh HELLZ yea!!! I’m going to DM you! If you guys tell me your route I’ll hook you up with some RAD spots on your route! I’d love to give you some of our favorite spots along your route!
Nice. I’ll be adding these to my built 3500 thanks to your vid. I started with the Sumo springs all around and noticed a huge difference in ride performance quality; much less sway and much less bounce. Do you guys have an update on ride performance with these supersprings leaf helpers since this install? Thanks for the well made vid.
Yo! You’re going to LOVE them! We just installed the sumo springs on top of the helper springs and it is AWESOME! Super happy with them all around. We gained another 3/4 to 1 inch worth of lift on top of the 1 5/8” we got with just the Super Springs and the ride is super smooth. If you’re installing them get ready for a boss suspension system! We’re psyched we went with the full upgrade! We should have a video out soon with the full system and performance. So psyched you enjoyed the video! Let us know how everything works out for you.
Thanks for posting this video. Watching the steps you took I was able to replace my factory grill. Take care.
Awesome!!! Glad we could help!
I think it reduces the life of the front springs, it supports only some spring loops, so the others are taking more load. Anyway, still a win, I love mine. That extra inch prevents me from hitting curbs all the time! I'm at 90k miles, and my struts are now dead. I don' t think these hurt anything there.
Cool cool! Thanks for the info! I’ll have to look into this.
Is it over kill to add a summospring with it which the yellow color? Do you know what torque is the shocks when you tighten it back?
No, I don’t think it’s over kill at all! We have the blue Sumo Springs waiting for us in our mailbox! I’m not sure which color would be best for you, but, the blue’s are the ones Super Springs threw our way. As for the torque. I just cranked them on. We didn’t have a specific torque number for them.
I got the yellow stiffer one I believe thank you for the quick response appreciate it alot
@@NomadderWhereVan 30ftlbs.
Nice work!
Just curious, is there a time limit?
Hey there, awesome question! I believe there may be a 30-45 minute limit, but honestly I don’t think that’s enforced. Hope that was helpful 😊
Did you see that my last name was the lookout (Harney lookout) under the Black Elk sign! How cool is that, I guess I was there in spirit. 😊
So good to see you! Felt like I was there, so beautiful! Thank you for sharing....🥰
So psyched you enjoyed it! We miss you! So looking forward to the next time our paths cross!
Great video bud! The Mountains are calling!
Thanks, brother! Hellz yea they are!!! Always!!!
Billy, you crack me up dude but at the same time you worry me not knowing what peak that is. Miss you all, stay safe.
Hahaha!!! What? I wasn’t too far off! Maine / Arizona. Who wouldn’t confuse the two. 🤣🤣🤣 Miss you, too, bro! We gotta hook up sometime soon!!!
Nice install 👍
Watching this made me miss you guys even more! Cool place, awesome video. Well done guys!
Thanks guys!!! We’re missing you too! Can’t wait to see you guys again! Love you!
Awesome video
Thanks, brotha! Still making our way through Colorado! Hahaha! It’s amazing here!
Which Sumo part number did you use ? The link to installation guide on you web site doesn't seem to work. Thanks
Just fixed the link! Thanks for pointing that out!
Love this! Hope you guys are enjoying a better journey. Sent you a dm to your IG; check it out when you get the chance - Josh
I’m psyched you dig it! We got two more in the series coming out. One today for the Coil Sumo Install and the max’d out 3500 with the helper spring install on Sunday. Seriously, man, these changed the game big time! It’s like riding in our van pre-build. It’s Sick!!! I’ll check out the IG right now! Talk soon!
