Blue bird installation: no instructions

Hey everyone,

I picked up a second hand 3/4 blue bird r&r bed. It's in white, not the new silver one.

Just a few quick questions, the bed was already assembled, and looks, works fine but....

Should the kick board frame be completely vertical?

Should the seating part be raised, if I was to screw it into the floor, the bed doesn't seem to look horizontal with the rear (that's without a rear box being built).

Here's a make shift picture.

The bluebird bed is designed to fit in a bay window. A bay window has a higher engine platform so when you fit the bed to your T25 it will be higher than the rear engine bay when in the bed position. You will then need to make a wood support and platform over the engine bay.

The front kick panel sits vertical. Just remember to use some spreader plates behind the nuts for extra strength.

I got distructions with my bluebird bed so I'm sure if you ring bluebird and ask they would post you some.
