Summary

Join us under the van today as we upgrade our Ford Transit self-build campervan with a full DIY underslung waste tank installation. This video covers everything from inspecting the underside of the van, drilling the mounting points, bolting the tank into place, and wrapping it in insulation to help stop it freezing during winter camping.

If you're working on a DIY campervan water system, planning a Ford Transit van build, or researching how to install an underslung waste tank for your camper conversion, this step-by-step guide shows the full process in real-time. No shortcuts, no hiding the awkward bits — just practical van build work and the kind of install footage we all wish existed when we started.

Perfect for anyone doing a self build campervan, upgrading an older waste setup, winter-proofing their rig, or learning more about the plumbing side of van life.
