Well every now and then we do a little work...........The Samvan came via a facebook request for HELP
These folks had a Bed front-to-back.....they needed it built-in side-to-side.....The original bed had about 20-2x3 wobbly-legs.............it's a conversion van......they had already removed the plastic trim.....now they were left with the cold bare steel walls or the exposed rear HVAC unit
It took over an hour for them to remove EVERYTHING..............THEN we secured the loose wiring and hoses with tie wraps.........we used heat-shrink to terminate the wires to the mid-cabin electric couch....(cut the wires short and melt a section of heat shrink....OVERHANGING the cut end a fraction.....then tuck under the carpet ) ..........Added a fixed USB port to replace the existing one
Owner sweat-equity Vacuum !!!!!!
Added two "pony" walls.....one alongside the HVAC.........One fit over the wheelwell.........constructed of 2x3 frames faced in plywood..............the area behind the walls got stuffed with insulation and taped.............Long 2x2 and 2x3's are screwed to the support walls
We added the original plywood on top and stapled it all together............Stapled a little Blanket/upholstery between the bed and the windows.................This is their start !
I tried but could NOT remove those floor plates
The strong bed....... No legs storage is exactly what they were after............Arrrrrgh !
