rib bed

I have started the long road to converting my T6 van to a camper. I want to buy a a crash tested 150cm rib bed, any suggestions where to get 1. I have looked on line and they are about £2100 but thought this was a bit expensive?

I decided that I wanted the bed positioned as far back as possible, and with the bed frame bolted to the chassis cross members. There are many different ways to do this installation, this is my way, it may not be the "approved" way.

im after buying a 112cm 2 seater rib bed but I've looked on a website and it looks like you actually lie on the back of the bed? Does the back have a soft matteress on it or will i need to buy a matteress for it ? Seems lot of money if i have to buy something to lie on aswell?

Hi all. I'll soon be taking delivery of a brand new T6 SWB panel van. Lovely (except it's taken 25 years to save up). So. I'm doing most of the conversion myself but want to buy a flat pack kitchen / cupboard unit that will accommodate a RIB 130 slider (3 seats) but at the same time allow the...

Any ideas for a mattress topper for a full width Banwy Rib 150 bed?

Hi Guys, Looking for recommendations for a mattress topper for my full width SCOT RIB. Cant get on with Memory foam as its simply too hot as I do sweat a lot. Seen some postings about the ZoneSleep product but would really appreciate any advice/suggestions before forking out a load of cash...

Just in the process of ordering my rib, however does anyone know if the measurements ( I.E. 112 , 120 ) refer to the size of the bed or the framework? on floor level i have 112cms between my units and the wheel arch, however i have 120cms between the units and the side of the van ( above the...

Hi, I hope I’m putting this thread in the right place. If not please let me know. Ok, I decided a few months back I wanted to build a day van. I was toying with a Transit MSRT but drive a transit every day for my job and to be honest they aren’t the best. I knew the transporter was the go to...

Hi All. ! Now the holidays are almost upon us, I thought it would be a good time to get stuck in to a few of the jobs requiring a bit of a boost to get the van ready for some weekend 'jollies' around the country. Having opted for a comfy 'Day Van' option rather than a out & out camper, I thought...

hi everyone, first post on the forum so go easy...! We're having a T6 panel van converted and need to make a decision on our rear seating. The converter offers two seating options, one fixed rib seat bed and the other the California seat bed on rails. We like the flexibility of the rail system...

I've had a t5 swb and a t5.1 lwb, both converted. The lwb was a poptop and units where the swb was more of a part conversion. I picked up 'hutch' two weeks ago from a vw centre in Newcastle. He is a 140 highline dsg in mojave. He's got factory fitted tailgate window and nothing else! Conversion...

Has anyone got or had an issue with when loading anything in the rear of the van/boot area behind a RIB bed the seat belt catching and not retracting, looking at mine this is because the seat belt runs around the rear of the seat frame and catches? Mine hasn't got a cover or facia on yet as not...
