rock n roll bed

Post by mortski »

hi, does anyone know if a T4 full rock and roll bed fits into a T25, we have been offered one free from a t4 to fit into our van, we are beginers to the surf bus scene so would love to hear any tips or a straight yes no would also be welcomed. thanks.

standard t4 beds are designed to fit the t4 floor which is completely flat so the beds are free standing.

t25 beds use the rear shelf/van floor for support

so if the t4 bedd is a standrd t4 r&r bed it will not fit.


but without a pic many things can be made and called things. t4 r&r or a diy frame ?

My mate got one into a bay but he had to grind off the rear section and it sort of sits on the bulkhead. You could get it and make something similar to what Covkid did in the Wiki, bit of cutting and maybe small bit of welding.

You can make anything fit with an angle grinder and a mig welder :rofl Just make sure its bolted in place with spreader plates. Can't see the point in rear seat belts if the seat can come away. Get it fixed right and you'll be fine.
