- In this video we show you how we turned our Dodge grand caravan 2005 into a camper.
We built it from scratch, with ZERO pre-knowledge on carpentry.
Dodge grand caravan 2005 Van conversion.
I think your method is mold and condensation resistant. plus you get the transition from sleeping to dining to lounging with storage. Awesome!!
this is the best bed setup I've ever seen!!!!
That is really cool bed design...it's your bed as well as seating with a table that's in between the seating sections & a drawer that pulls out with your camp stove on it...very cool,basically its your bed & kitchen in 1 package,makes excellent use of the amount of space that the van has...
They should have a competion for mini-van conversions, yours would place high for simplicity and function!
hi there 👋🏽 I just Subscribed to your channel, this is truly the best and neatest Van build I’ve seen in a while, two thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻♥️.
Based on the Amdro Boot Jump made in Wales in the UK, Suspect that's where the Idea came from. They have been going well over 10 years.
I have this same model van I'm getting ready to start mods on. 👍
This looks pretty good - for someone who's only 5' 6"...
I'm 6' 6" tho, so I'll have to have a different configuration.
Haha! I am having the same issue. My car blew up and im getting my Dad's 05 for cheap. I keep finding these awesome conversions but am reminding myself I am 6f6
Too many vitamins..... you guys must have a hard time shopping for clothing....
@@chrisbarclay6127 very true
This is the best I've seen yet and I'm ALWAYS looking at van conversion videos because I want to go stealth and get around a bit. Would you be willing to sell your specs and "how to" on this build? It's truly amazing. Paul
Paul Paquette Hello Paul! We don't want to make money ou of it, we want to share them. Unfortunately I don't have the notebook where we draw the firsts drafts, and design with us right now, but we have the construction in our Iivingroom at the moment, so we just have to measure it and create a step-by-step guide. we intend to share them soon here :)
Paul Paquette It is #1on list of what I have seen! Thinking of doing an Honda Odyssey like that. Would also be interested in what it took took make it so functional. Truly a great camper van.
@@sofistan hello, if you are still responding to comments- did you ever do make those plans?
@@sofistan Hey, I would also be very interested if you did make the plans! It would be really helpful and much appreciated if you could share them!
Please let me know when plans are ready too. Great design! Steve (65yrs), need this for my bucket list adventures.
Dude, you got my van! Haha.... my '05 Grand Caravan is the same color. Nice layout. Definitely some ideas I can use.
Wooow super genial me encantó la idea espero poder hacer algo parecido
I love it I wish I had one of those for my van
He knows how to build most of us don't and will just mess up good wood trying. Find something else for a bed or have someone like him build you one.
We didn’t really have any experience with wood prior to this build. We were just very lucky to have a friend with all the tools we needed to do the job. We used playwood, and got the pieces cut at Rona.
Congratulations good job .... from Algeria
It's versatile for sure
Best caravan I’ve seen
Oh my goodness, I would definitely go camping with this woman. I mean we would spend much of the time putting the couch and bed to use
Beautiful! The camper too!
Omg!.. this is awesome!!. the best ive seen anywhere!!. id be willing to buy the specs a instruct. when you have them.. Thank you so much for this idea👍👍👍
Gracias, es el mejor mueble de todos losmque he visto. Donde los colchones?
That's a pretty awesome build. Pretty close to what I got in mind for mine. If you are interested in adding a battery system I have been doing a tonnnnnnne of research. All I can say, is mini fridge on an inverter is the way to go. Lithium Iron phosphate. Isn't it nice how the standard size of a tri-fold mattress is 24 inch segments, and the van is 4 feet tall inside?
Nice music. And the van is nice to!
Happy New Year, I hope you are well. I just purchased a 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan. I am hoping to get my hands on some design files (ideally I can open in TinkerCAD format .stl, .obj or .svg, or any drawings/diagrams/measurements of bed/cabinet/kitchen alternate setups etc) that I can take inspiration from modify to my personal liking to incorporate a combination of the best as possible. I thought I might ask if you would be so kind as to forward any design files that you have that may help me, also if you are aware currently of any useful/necessary items for vanlife selling at a really good price/value currently I would very much appreciate any help/advice you can provide.
Thanks and safe travels!
Very cool...
Inspiring
What a great build!!!
Hi. Amazing!! I too would very much like the plans. Willing to pay and also would have you make it if you wanted..or just the plans please😀😀😀
Muito meus parabéns ficou muito. legal boas férias. aproveita.
Fantástico...muito prático! Parabéns 👏👏👏
Liked it very much
Nice orthopedic mattress
Hi, really impressive build. Are the specs/plans available? I'm planning to build something similar soon.
finally a smart set up..with multi use !! very nice*
that is amazing work
Wow, this is such a great conversion, thank you so very much!
nice camping box
What's with everyone asking for the "spec's" ? If you cant figure it out from this video, you probably can't build it. Have to design it for every flavor of van anyway.
Right on, if you can figgure it out from watching you are either inexperianced at woood working or an idiot!
Excellent!
The word AMDRO springs to mind!
caravan, best tent ever😁
I know it's an old video, but any insight on this design (or similar) would be really helpful. Looking to make something for my 2005 van too.
É as malas ? As coisas de compras vão por onde durante a noite? Onde vão por?
Really nice job!
do you have a set of plans for this conversion it looks pretty cool 😁
Awesome. Well done. God bless
Danny Heath Schwab Thank you! We are very proud of the result as we were totally dummies when we started the project and did it all from scratch :)
Great job...do you still have the van ?
Nice and the vans not bad either
a nice one camping box
awesome
I love the dinete option!
any possible way to get build specs on this?
Dean Knight Sorry for the late reply, we didn't know the video became so popular! we filmed it for our family and friends and the 20.000 views has been a surprise :)
We are aiming to share the specs soon. We'll announce it here whenever that happens
Still waiting, pleease?:-)
@@sofistan over 100,000 views now. Any word on those specs?
Hola !! esta genial !!
Según la experiencia de ustedes se podra hacer algo parecido en una Renault Koleos 2011 ??
Intéressant
Wish I knew someone that could build me something like this
They are selling theirs kits! Call them
great ideas
I want a stealth van so I can feel like a homeless James Bond
Great setup!
The best, motorhome
This is perfect I've check to see if the spec were available PLEASE SHARE IF AVAILABLE
Hola desde España,
Gracias por vuestro video. ¿Puedo ver las medidas en algún sitio? Tengo un Grand Voyager y me gustaría hacer el mismo sistema. Gracias.
Gostei muito bom
super
Hola, como estan? Su idea fue grandiosa. sera que es posible pedirles los planos? O son privados?. Quiero hacer algo similar gracias por las ideas!!!
Your music made this video sound like a Sims game.
haha you're right! we edited the video while we were traveling, with an Ipad app and very limited music tracks to use.
I love this mini van kit. Where can I purchase a kit?
I'm confused as to why so many people comment negatively on these van build outs. Not everyone with a van build out are homeless. I live in an apartment and my van buildout is used for weekend overnight visits to all the beautiful mountains and beaches we have here in North Carolina without having to pay crazy high hotel prices. No the facts before criticizing. Also, there are many people who live in vans for various reasons, but it isn't any concern of yours if they aren't bothering anyone. I wish I could live in one full-time for no other reason than I enjoy it.
Ciao, avresti le misure di tutto quello che hai costruito.. grazie mille 🙏
Great job!!!
Cool G
Класс, молодцы!!!
Are you going to post on how to make it
Домик для гномиков,забавные торчки)
Do you have designs for this? Would you be willing to share them?
holy shit this looks nice lol
Hi guys! Your idea is great, I'm doing the same project whit my van!! Is possible to know what kind of mattress did you get, and where could I buy it???? Thank you so much for the video!!
Uhh get a cheap mattress from Costco XD (that was just a joke XD I'm only 12)
haha yeeah, beautiful british columbia !!!!!
Чем бы дитя не тешилось , лишь бы не поакало
Notice he couldn’t sit upright in the seat and had to be hunched over the table as not enough headroom.
What is your source for the bedding/mattresses? Are they custom fitted, or can they be purchased? What is the material?
Is there anyway I can get detail dimensions or diagram?
😍
Look how happy they are, as if it was a million$ RV
Millionaires campers are a big stressed who needs it just need 2happy campers
lol - I never wanted a million RV. So yes, I was super happy and content with our set up (L)
Что ж поделать, когда за аренду платить нечем... будешь и в багажнике спать)
Hi, do you have plans for the woodworking?
Where can I buy one of those
ok thats kinda cool!
वाह गुरू...चालाकी? दो विडियो को जोड़ कर अपना काम निकाल लिया?
Please share some photos! I am in the planning to convert our van. We live next to the rockies
U really don't want to drive a soccer mom car bro
@@DZ_Football check my insta: djdnl what I drive 😬 Ram 2020 sport. But with 3 kids a van with a rooftop tent is perfect for the weekends
My dad drives a 2005 ford Freestar, but in a few months he says he's gonna get a new car, also ur kids r lucky, all I have is a little brother and I wish my little brother was old enough to be mature so he can play Roblox and Minecraft with me
@@DZ_Football Just have patience, your brother will be older soon and play with you 🙌
A ram is cool 😎
Donde puedo conseguir las medidas? Gracias.
How high are the drawers?
still needs privacy curtains, bug net ventilation, fridge, extra battery, outdoor shower, more storage, bed is too much of a pain to setup. keep workin on it :)
You moron, it is a weekender not a live in!
Where did u get that kit at
NICE!!!!!!
Plaining on going to Florida from Toronto roundtrip about a 24 hour just thought I’d ask this question if anyone can help me, I got a 01 dodge caravan (3.3 litr v6) with 135km changed a lot of things on it like breaks some suspension mechanic says it should be ok but still worried it won’t make it? Maybe I’m overthinking ? What you guys think?
We used our van for a trip from Vancouver to Dawson City (Yukon), roundtrip, and we had no issues with it! Enjoy your trip @xavie905
Ms Sophia where can I get this set up.
do you have specs for this for a Honda Odyssey? Can you help us build? Thank you!!
Does anyone know how long the cargo area is in a dodge caravan and how wide. I want to figure out how long the bed frame would be and still close the back hatch.
Jim Bronaugh The bed lenght is 1,80 meters, and once the bed is open, there is still like around 60 cm left. The width of the bed is 1,20 meters
nice
Where did you get those cutout wood panels?
Sorry for the late response... we actually made them, to make the built lighter....
Is it possible to get it anywhere??pls let me know
I want this build how do I get it do the di builds
Is there enough room in the front to have 2 passengers seats in the back up? I have 2 kids.
yes! you could oull the two seats out and still have room for this set up
@@sofistan thank you so much for the reply :)
