well damn, I wasn't aware of that I thought you could remove the seat. Not sure how ill incorporate a fridge then as I want to be able to take 3 skids vs having a set sleeper. Maybe I can find one that's skinny enough to be kept against the wall or one i can put in the floor in front of the...

Yeah youre probably right

I plan on bolting it to the floor too. So its parallel with the ones on the roof. I know its kind of overkill. Im just wondering if the roof will be able to support something like that

Been expediting in promasters for over a year now and ive only gotten one load that was within 2 inches from the top. But the question is it going to make enough difference to be worth losing that rare really high load

Is there any reason i couldnt do this? My idea is so i can use two of the e track load locks run them vertically to seriously block the cargo from sliding forward.

What i would like to do is cut thick insulation board and use adhesive spray to put inbetween the floors cross members and have them be slightly taller than the crossmembers. Then use spray foam insulation to cover the cross members and everywhere else. When it cures trim in down to be level...

Not sure if itll work or not but id like to remove the passenger seat and screw 90 degree braces into the floor and to a refrigerator to hold it in place there Will i be able to do this? If not whats other options to sucure a mini fridge to the front flooring? Id also like to attach a...

Starting to make plans to buy van next month and im a little confused on the details of installing all the electrics....aux batteries, roof ac unit, genererator, inverter etc. I want to have about a 900-1100 ah battery bank most likely of 2-4 batteries. I want a smart isolator that will...

Thats a pretty weird rule but i think it would be pretth effortless to avoid that.

I would be all over a Nissan if they made them longer. And I'm definitely going to be finding a promaster with a bumper to bumper warranty of at least 100k miles hopefully more so I'm not breaking the bank paying for things that go wrong quickly like this.

They have the extended 2500 now, this wouldn't even be a thread if they didn't, definitely need that 12 feet.

yes I understand that everything you had to the van effects the payload. Ive driven promasters for like a year, both were in a 3500, I had about 3300 payload after everything, I don't remember the exact number, sticker payload was 4400. So if everything was the same but in a 2500, the payload...

Yeah I just found the chart I was looking for idk why I couldn't find it earlier.... payload is only about 300lbs more for the 3500 = I'm buying a 2500.

I did look on there, but I didn't see anything about payload, I guess I need to subtract the curb weight (which also isn't on there) from the GVWR. The max payload when I drove for on owner was clear on the door sticker, I don't see why this is so far to find for me.

I'm aware of that, my question is coming from how much total more weight can a 3500 haul over a 2500. Both would have the same extra weight as far as myself, personal supplies, gas, etc.

I cannot find a straight answer online or maybe I can and I'm retarded. What weight can an empty 2500 promaster high roof ext haul? not sure if it varies by year, but a general number is good. I know the 3500 is about 4400 and some change, but seems like I'm seeing plenty more 2500s for sale and...

message me, id like to get some details and advice on it if you wouldnt mind.

So you do need the DOT sleeper if you are running teams? I eventually want to get a true expediting straight truck but i dont have the capital/credit to do that right now. Probably will just keep running sprinter, keep my CDL active, and move up when i can. Or maybe just find an owner for a...

I mostly seen these trucks too, but i did see one like im talking about with a small window in the front of the trailer, and a mom and pop expediting company logo on the doors, thats what gave me the idea but it seems like im better off getting the ones with the built in sleeper already.

Thank you turtle. Thats the piece i was missing as to why this isnt more popular to do. It still may make financial sense to do over the normal straight trucks, depending on how much the cost will be to convert into a DOT approved sleeper and all the inspection fees and what not for the DOT...
