Right here we go

Please note these are the prototype hinges so look a little rough not painted or powder coated the final sets will be all powder coated black and have proper fixings etc.

Right all went smoothly with the exeption of when the upright part of the bench seat folds down we will need to make a angle to hold it in the perfect postion so we fashioned this in a rush we'll make some more suitable for the proper sets

hinges back out and taking them for the first sets next week

Cheers

Dave

Should mention pulled out it forms a 6ft platform.

 

[Araon]

looking at the pics the seat looks higher than the shelf over the engine bay....is that so and by how much?

 

[leeffrost]

its not higher but the seats are curved in section so the edges are in line but the middles are slightly higher but the seats are spongy so depress when your on them if that makes sense?

 

[leeffrost]

you can see this better from the back view

 

[Araon]

Ahh that looks better....the money shot.... :lol:

 

[leeffrost]

yer looks alot different from the front!

i was surprised how much spring is in the bench seats you deffo will need a futon or air bed over the seats and cargo area as the cargo area is rock hard and the seats are really soft.

I was hoping to test these out this weekend but weather is shocking and i'm skint having paid for the first set.

Like I said before the final sets will be powder coated (in for the price).

Damn, I love that interior of your bus. Hinges looks good too. Damn, I love that interior of your bus. By the way, did I mention that I love that interior of your bus?

 

[leeffrost]

haha cheers dude

i like the interior to thats why i've spent the last 6 months working on these hinges so i dont have to rip it out to go camping!

[craigtayla]

Interior looks sweet, I'm jealous, damn my 3/4 R&R bed!
Reckon I could make this set up work with a 3/4 middle bench instead of a full width rear bench?????
Great to see it work Dave! Good stick-with-it-ability mate!!!!

 

[leeffrost]

yer i recon it would work mate just a case of moving one hinge inwards to the base of the seat.

just got a couple mods we learnt from the set we've just put in my van and they should be ready to roll very soon.

Just a quick question does everyone have this bar in their vans?

 

[Araon]

yep they rear cushion slots onto it....

 

[leeffrost]

cool I only ask as the hinges need some extra support for the upright part of the seat when in the bed position so this bar is in the ideal place to provide some support so were going to make a fork to fit into this to provide a bit of extra support.

 

[Shaggy]

That looks amazing, as I am 6'5" I might have to bend my knees a little or open the door at the back
