144 Van Panel Bed Kit

This kit is for the DIY'er handyperson that wants a platform bed in their NVC3 van, but doesn't want to pay thousands of dollars for one of the very nice compete kits already out there and/or doesn't own a 100 ton metal brake or a TIG welder.

We are building these now in four formats each tailored the width and curvature of the van walls for a given height:

Our Panel Platform Bed Kit

The High Kit designed to be installed at 44" off the floor
The Medium Kit designed to be installed at 40"
The Low Kit designed to be installed at 36
The Floor Kit designed to be place anywhere between the wheel wells up to 28 or 30"

We have rails to fit the 170 vans in all the the floor kit. All of these heights have some wiggle room up and down so we can pretty much make something work for you anywhere from the floor to 45"up.

Note: This item should only be installed by skilled installers, no mounting instructions are included.

We're working on kits for the T1N vans now as well. Please email if you're interested.

PANEL CONSTRUCTION

The three platform panels are constructed from 0.125" wall 1" square 6061 aluminum tube. The rear section is shaped so the platform can project into the area by the rear windows. Sections are 24" wide - you can put 25" wide material on there and have overhang to get a full 75" bed - or you can do as we have with the wood flush with the frame and space between each panel.

We have tested these for several months and had 240 pounds of adults on the top and often another 180 pounds of kids!

PLEASE NOTE: The rails are super stout 11 gauge steel plate formed allowing the platform to sit flat. Length allows for a 75" sleeping area and doesn't project too far out into the window or door area. The steel rails are formed specifically to account for the arc of the Sprinters walls at each of the four bed heights. On our low and floor kits the rails are laser cut to adjust to the bulge in the slider door wall.
