In this video I get the van ready for its first day of work, I’m sure things wIth get moved around once I’ve started working out of it but for now it needs to earn me some money!

My brother bought a VW crafter MWB CR35, He had a Ford Transit lwb before that, i have to say, NIGHT AND DAY! why are ford cars and vans absolutely crap these days, i mean i don't remember what they were like years ago because i didn't really DIY my car's until later on, but the difference between manufacturers now is crazy. Great videos btw mate, I've watched a few of yours now and im subbed, so definitely worth a watch. Great stuff as usual. 👍

@kerbsidemobilemechanic 8 ай бұрын

I’m obviously biased towards the sprinter, they are more expensive for same spec/mileage etc as the movanos, I’ve got a few mates with them/masters and they all say they are good vans

For additional big red toolbox support you could add a third angle bracket in the middle of the top toolbox desktop area attaching it to the back of the wooden fascia.

Take the wheels off the tool box...it wont stay there long.....mine rolled and spewed all the draws out...quote traumatizing when i think currently 3500 grand of Strap on tool box.....ive got a Bott draw section/bench thats lasted nearly 20 years in various vans ...worth the money...😊

Keep my sockets and spanners in the middle drawers when reaching in from the side door they are the most comfortable, trapsing in and out the van all day gets tiresome 😂

Yeah makes sense, I can just about reach my sockets standing outside the van 😅

Hi bud love the channel , question with your doggy knees I'd the sprinter slot lower to get in and out of the back than the transit?

Yeah miles better as it has a step to the side before the floor level unlike the transit 👍🏼

hold on your a mobile mechanic but you cant drill holes in your van? do you weld even?, too be honest those strip lighting seems like it is pointless i bet it barely lights up the van, you should get some quality lights for the inside and need a more professional look to the van, it says alot when people walk by and see your setup

Ok 👍🏼
