Stripping the van out


Recommended Posts

I finally got the van home today and started stripping it out in preparation for a new wood floor and shelves.

The fibreglass partition was the first thing to go and once I got the black mat up I saw the added piece of floor.

This black screwed down floor extension, is it integral to the structure of the truck or can I modify it with hatch to

access some of that unused  storage space underneath?

Thanks

Congrats on your new van.

Getting a van delivered to the US has the advantage of having this deck bolted in rather than welded in if it was delivered to Canada or EU.

You have many options for capturing this foot well area for much needed storage in the TC.

 

Use the SEARCH function in the upper right corner of the page and you'll find lots of different solutions discussed over the years.

Below are a few links to get you started, which I found by searching "FOOT WELL".

The added floor extension could be providing additional structural support, and removing or modifying it could compromise the integrity of the vehicle. It's recommended to consult with a professional mechanic or body shop before making any modifications to the floor of the van. To produce additional electicity you can purchase a generator e.g. https://generatorpick.com/best-rv-generator/ especially if you are going to travel on it.
