    Whenever you disconect the seats, the battery must be disconected previusly. Else not, the electronics detect an ABS or an airbag failure.

  • @MikeHerbstUSA

    The reason to disconnect the battery is to prevent accidental detonation of the airbags. Orange/Yellow connector blocks are airbag wiring - it's possible that while making/breaking the connection there you can get a stray voltage that triggers the bag. Disconnecting battery is a basic safety step.

      How does the seat rotate when the hand break is engaged?

      You rotate the seat then engage it, fool.

    • @royvicente93
      @royvicente93 Год назад

      Not ideal when your on a slight incline. Although I suppose it's a fancy van so you can probably engage it then unlock it and leave it down with it still engaged. Angry Mike, you sir have been served by a fool!

    I like it, If you know someone working on a ford transit van they do swivel bases for the front 2 seat bench (and the benches open up for storage space). Having any swivel front seat on a van is also extra great if you have a pop top bed as youve just made yourself a step to get up. 😙🤌

    The feet dangle issue is also mitigated by insulating your floor and adding plywood above the insulation.

    Isn’t the reinstalled hand brake hitting the swivel seat (when it turns) when the brake is engaged?

  • @cobnelson
    @cobnelson Год назад +1

    You could figure out a way to lock the seat facing backward as another layer of theft protection.

  • @remivip7361
    @remivip7361 Год назад +1

    Seeing you take off your shoes before you put your feet on the seat made me think that the little riser behind the seats would be a good place for shoe storage. Then you might take them off to keep the van clean(er), but they wouldn't be very far away when you were going out the door or swivelling around to drive.

    you dont have to unplug your negative cable. Its just for safety and common practice used by technicians in case you short out the battery, or your fry your car computer

    Ben I have a question for you. Say you are parking on a slight hill and you decide to stay there for the night. How do you apply the handbrake on your van conversion then turn your drivers seat around to face into the back of the van ? The reason why I ask is that once you have pulled up the handbrake you don't have the clearance on your seat to be able to turn around and face the internal area's that are now your home !!!. I may be wrong but from your video I can't see that you have the room to do the turning of your drivers seat without it hitting your handbrake and you can't turn the seat around firstly then apply the handbrake like I said earlier if you're parking on a slight hill etc.
    As always buddy 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.

    That parking brake is ridiculously huge! I'm surprised there isn't a foot-style parking brake like a lot of American vans have.

    The added thickness doesn't matter when the are turned backwards, but it does matter when you are driving, specially if you are a tall person.

    so, you can't swivel when parked on a hill because the parking break is in the way when engaged.
