My rusty Lee ¾ width bed arrived this month, as I was keen to get the mounting holes drilled before I paint the engine bay.

It took me a little while to work out how it all went together, but it seems really nicely designed and pretty straightforward.

Once I’d assembled it I got it into the van on top of the Madmatz closed cell insulation, a piece of 9mm ply and the floor tiles I’ll be using to make sure it sat at the correct height:

And then drilled and fitted the mounting bolts:

While the bed was in I made up a large strengthening plate for the lap belt and 3 point belt I’ll be fitting



And a quick test to make sure it fits:

These are the floor tiles I’ll be fitting much later on:
