You’ve done an amazing job on that, inside and out. Had Yokohama on my Mitsubishi and they’re decent tyres. I wouldn’t have a clue where to start with a project like that so you’ve done yourself proud.
Thanks its been a journey converting it but loved it and getting to use it nearly every weekend now. the Yokohama tyres are really good i have found a big difference from the other alloys with the low profile tyres that i have be sticking with the swamper wheel now. Atb Ally 👍
Thanks Donny its been a great project and great for the freedom to just get away when you want into the mountains or the campsites don't know what a would do without it now. Atb Ally 👍

Hi Carol thanks for following along on the videos i used the pvc rail as it was easier to fit to the curve on the roof a used sika flex to stick down as didn't want to screw down as more risk of leaks in to the van its place in the drain channel on the passengers side so when the pop-top is up you can easily slide the awning on i have a few other videos on the build i think on part 2 i was speaking about it and showing where its situated hopefully this can help . Thanks Ally 👍
Absolute belter Ally , just started watching your channel lately , thoroughly enjoying it , can I ask where did you get your You Tube windy decals mate ? Always wanted small decals like that on oors 😊
Hi mate thanks following along on the channel hopefully you are enjoying the videos. The van has been a great project from a standard van to the way it is now.

Hi thanks for viewing the video i got mine from an arnold clark garage i got lucky to find this one as the don't normal have vans in with the cars and also it wasn't registered as a commercial van so didn't have to pay vat on it as most vans you have to pay the vat. if you can by one private you would avoid this aswell . the caddy maxis are hard to find i have seen a lot of the blue ex British gas was have been converted should have a look on auto trader might see something on there that has been converted or partly. my van was a basic box van and then i decided to do the conversion.

Hi Ally, what size wheel and all terrain tyre have you got on this? I’m looking for a new set of wheels on my caddy but not sure what size I can go up to. Have you adjusted the suspension to accommodate? Thanks for any help Ryan
Hi Ryan thanks for following along my wheels are 16inch with the yokohama A/T tyre 215/60/16 , these tyres are perfect size i think you can go up to 215/65/16 , my other alloys were 19 inch with 225/35/19 tyres these were ok as well never had any problems with rubbing i heard if you go to 235 they will rub . but i decided to go with the swamper option now as kept damaging the low profile tyres . i have found the new set up to be better handling on the road aswell hope this might help .
