Laying the Foundation: Subfloor & Soundproofing My Brightdrop Electric Campervan | Ep. 3

In this video I’m installing the subfloor and soundproofing in my Chevy BrightDrop Zevo 600 EV campervan conversion! Before I can build out the walls, bed, or cabinetry, I have to tackle two major challenges: stopping the highway noise inside this massive electric cargo van and installing a subfloor to build on. In this episode, we remove the factory tie-down anchors, lay down rigid foam, install the plywood subfloor, and apply butyl sound dampening to stop panel resonance. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE TO FOLLOW THE BUILD: [   / @kelsonlau  ] 📌 Watch the full BrightDrop EV Campervan Conversion playlist:    • Converting an Electric BrightDrop Van into...   Gear Used: • DJI Osmo Action 6 Camera • DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Camera • DJI Mic Mini ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Introduction 1:16 - Shopping Montage 2:27 - Removing Factory Tie Downs 3:02 - Cutting Rigid Foam for Floor 5:05 - Rigid Foam Cutting Test Fit 5:13 - Outlining Plywood for Cutting 5:37 - Cutting Plywood 6:32 - Showing Cut Plywood Pieces 6:39 - Plywood Test Fit 7:17 - Gluing Down the Rigid Foam 8:25 - Acknowledging I need to daylight the battery bolts 8:47 - Putting down weights for overnight curing 9:42 - Installing HVAC tape on floor seams 9:54 - Explaining my mistake with the foam and plywood seams 10:52 - Metal Plate Install 12:01 - Gluing Down the Plywood 13:42 - Sound Deadening Installation 15:42 - Closing -------------------------------------------------- #VanBuild #DIYCamper #ElectricVehicle #Campervan #VanLife #BrightDrop #ElectricVan #Maker #OffGridPower #DIY
