Hi Folks

Im in the process of designing a roof bed for my factory high top, and I could do with some detail reference picture of a westy high top bed.

Please see picture, need to know what type of hinge to use, how the flap bolt catch works, where it locks in to up and down, and what the slid out part of the bed runs on, rollers etc.

Thanks

Ian

Hi Fritz

Thanks for the link, had a look at that sight, not enough detail for what I need TBH I could do with a van to take measurements off.

So does anyone in the Shropshire, Cheshire, West Staffordshire area have a westy hightop I could take some measurements off and detail photos.

Thanks all any help much appreciated.

Hi Ian,

I'm in Telford with a (leaky) Westy Hightop, your welcome to come and have a look of the workings of my roof. I'm away this weekend and around some nights this week.

Let me know.

Was this just the bed or is the roof included? If so can you let me know which forum?
