🚨 HONEST VAN BUILD CONTENT - NO SPONSORSHIP FLUFF 🚨
We're exposing the REAL problems with Adventure Kings 500mm 4WD Drawers that other channels won't show you! This isn't another perfect install video - this is what actually happens when you try to build a camper van yourself.

💥 WHAT WE UNCOVERED:
✅ Missing parts straight from the factory
✅ Confusing instructions that waste your time
✅ Fitting issues they don't warn you about
✅ Floor trim nightmares in tight spaces
✅ Why timing your solar install matters

🔥 REAL TALK:
We're sharing the struggles, mistakes, and solutions that actually work. No sugar-coating, no perfect first attempts - just honest DIY van building from regular people doing this ourselves.

🚐 OUR BUILD: 2016 Toyota Hiace Super Long Wheelbase High Top 4x4

Converting it for Australian outback adventures without breaking the bank.
This episode covers drawer installation, fridge slider mounting, storage planning for composting toilets, and why we're doing solar AFTER the interior build (controversial but smart).
