Steering Wheel Upgrade
The Delica’s OG steering wheel is so completely reminiscent of a giant bus that we had to change it for our own driving sanity. We ordered a few different steering wheels to test for comfort and aesthetics.
Espar Diesel Heater
Who doesn’t want to take a hot shower after a long day on the trail or playing in the ocean? Hot water that used the same fuel as our van, diesel in this case, is why we chose to go with the Espar Hydronic D5E heater. We also loved that we could heat the interior […]

Manual Locking Hubs
We installed new Aisin manual locking hubs because we wanted manual control for our journey. In our research, we saw that there have been some issues with the automatic OG hubs on the Delica breaking or disengaging at inopportune times. The auto hub removal and manual hub installation is very simple. Just unscrew the […]
