Van Furniture Kit | Chevy Express 135 GMC Savana | Campervan DIY
Description
The TNTvans Chevy Express 135 / GMC Savana Campervan Conversion DIY Kit is an all-in-one bed, kitchen, and storage solution engineered specifically for van life adventurers who want to hit the road without the complexity of a full custom build. Built from proprietary 6063 aluminum framework and USA-made SEFA 8.0 certified Baltic Birch plywood with a UV-resistant epoxy acrylate finish, every component is designed to be light, strong, and space-efficient. The fully modular system bolts together and mounts directly to your van's floor - no wooden joints, no plumbing, no wiring required.
Whether you're a weekend camper or a full-time van dweller, this kit gives you everything you need to sleep, cook, and store gear from day one - with room to grow. A wide center aisle means you can still haul kayaks, mountain bikes, or dog crates when you're not sleeping in it. Designed and manufactured in St. George, UT, and shipped free to the lower 48, this is the smartest starting point for your DIY campervan build.
Key Features
- Proprietary 6063 Aluminum Framework: Lightweight and strong - engineered without wooden joints so there's nothing to loosen or rot over time, even on rough off-road terrain.
- 4 Bed Height Options (19", 30", 40", 51"): Choose the clearance and under-bed storage that fits your needs, with each level adding another row of shelving.
- Removable Bed Frame: The bed platform is fully removable, preserving a large aisle for hauling gear like kayaks, bikes, or dog crates when camping isn't on the agenda.
- Van Ice Chest Slide & Countertop: Elevated sliding tray designed around the ICECO 45L keeps your cooler off the floor and creates 6.5" of usable storage underneath for shoes and camp gear.
- Wireless Self-Contained Van Sink System: Includes a sink, manual water pump, hoses, fittings, and two water tanks - no plumbing hookups required. Fold-down faucet doubles as extra counter space.
- USA-Made Baltic Birch Plywood Shelving: SEFA 8.0 certified with a four-coat UV finish and thick semi-gloss epoxy acrylate coating for lasting durability in all conditions.
- Fully Modular Design: Shelving units, benches, and kitchen components all bolt together and can be rearranged or expanded later with Stack-On Shelving add-ons.
- T-Slot Attachment Points: Forged into the aluminum framework throughout, giving you flexible tie-down and gear-strapping locations anywhere on the unit.
- Ships by UPS in Flat-Pack Boxes: No freight pallets or special delivery required - ships free to the lower 48 and arrives in easy-to-lift boxes ready for home assembly.
- Assembly Time: ~8 Hours / Install Time: ~4 Hours: Comes with step-by-step illustrated instructions, a demonstration video, and personal cell phone support from the builder.
Bed Height Options & Which to Choose
- 19" Bed Height: The base configuration at no extra cost. Offers 17" of clearance underneath for storage. Best for minimalist builds or those who prioritize a lower profile and simpler setup.
- 30" Bed Height (+$558): A popular mid-range option with 28" of under-bed clearance and an extra row of shelving. Great for campers who want accessible gear storage without going full-height.
- 40" Bed Height (+$1,116): Provides 38" of clearance - enough to stash bulky gear, large bins, or battery systems beneath the bed. Ideal for longer trips or gear-heavy adventurers.
- 51" Bed Height (+$1,673): Maximum storage with 49" of under-bed clearance and the most shelving rows. Best for full-time van dwellers or anyone who needs to maximize organization and storage capacity.
What's Included
- Van Bed 48" Platform & Shelving Kit (with HDEVA foam spacers for a level sleeping surface)
- Van Ice Chest Slide with locking sliding tray and countertop
- Van Sink System (sink, manual water pump, hoses, fittings, and two water tanks)
- Floor mounting hardware (wood inserts for wood/composite floors, or riv nuts for metal floors - your choice)
- Step-by-step illustrated assembly instructions
Why You'll Love It
TNTvans has built a reputation among DIY van builders for delivering a system that's genuinely easy to assemble, built to last, and smart enough to grow with you. Every unit is manufactured in St. George, UT using materials chosen for their strength-to-weight ratio - the average complete kit weighs under 200 lbs, meaning your van's stock suspension can handle it without modification. The all-metal bolted framework is engineered to handle the flex and twist of off-road driving without ever loosening or failing the way wooden-joint builds do. Customers ranging from weekend campers to former aerospace engineers have praised the fit, finish, and thoughtful design. With personal builder support - including phone, text, email, and FaceTime - you're never left guessing during your build. This is the van conversion kit that gets you out camping this weekend, not next year.

FAQ
Will this kit fit my Chevy Express 135 or GMC Savana without modification?
This kit is designed specifically for the Chevy Express 135 and GMC Savana. Note that some vans are not perfectly square at all corners and may need minor fitment adjustments. The system is adjustable and designed to conform to your van's interior width. Full builder support is available by phone, text, email, or FaceTime if you run into any fitment questions during installation.
Do I need any special tools to assemble and install this kit?
Very few tools are required. For installation, you'll need either a riv nut installation tool (if your van has a metal floor) or standard drill bits (for wood/composite floors). The kit ships with all the bolts and mounting hardware you need. The assembly itself is designed to be DIY-friendly with illustrated step-by-step instructions and a demonstration video included.
Can I remove the bed and still use my van for hauling cargo?
Yes - the bed platform is specifically designed to be removable. The layout preserves a large center aisle even with the shelving and kitchen units in place, so you can haul kayaks, mountain bikes, dog crates, and other large items when you're not using the van as a camper.
What does the sink system include, and does it require plumbing?
The Van Sink System is fully self-contained and wireless - no plumbing connections required. It includes a sink, manual water pump, hoses, fittings, and two water tanks. The faucet folds down flat, and the lid creates extra countertop space when the sink is not in use. A pre-assembled sink system option is available as an add-on if you'd prefer it shipped ready to install.
Can I add more shelving later if my needs change?
Absolutely. The entire TNTvans system is modular - all shelving units bolt together and can be rearranged, swapped, or expanded at any time. If you want to raise your bed height and add more storage rows later, you can purchase Stack-On Shelving as an add-on. Doors, drawers, and side panels are also available separately through the accessories menu.
Is local installation available if I don't want to install it myself?
Yes. If you'd prefer not to do the installation yourself, TNTvans offers local installation at their facility in St. George, UT. They also offer a VIP "In Your Driveway" installation service - contact TNTvans directly for scheduling and availability.
