Great build posting!

I certainly learnt a lot regarding Unwin/Koller rails. Cheers!

Water tank looks neat also.

Not seen an internal water tank before, so definitely interested in this...where was it from?

 

[Neilson]

It's a Reimo internal tank

Informative build posting! Love it

How do you get on with the MOT with these rails? Looking to do the same

 

[Neilson]

Never had any issues.

 

[p5ckr]

Excellent, that's what I was hoping you were going to say!

Only Issue I can see I'm going to have is connecting the locks to my RnRoll bed steelwork, any ideas? I've looked at the quick locks too but not sure what will be best

Hi @Neilson great job on your rails.
What are the rail fittings on the front cross-rail on your bed please?
I recognise the rears as an unwin screw-clamp lockable.

And how do you find the sliding of the bed on the rails? How stiff is it, can one person slide the bed? Thanks! (Actually I just saw you'd answered this in a later post - sounds like it's pretty hard to slide)

Rails then went in. It took 2 of us 3 hours to tighten all the bolts!

The front fittings are the same unwin parts but only used the front section.

I never slide it to be honest. Its doable but not ideal.

Ok ta.

I'm tackling fitting unwin rails in mine.
Any chance you could get two measurements for me please... The offset of each rail from the side (eg their left-right position in the van.

Trying to work out the optimum position for not hitting chassis or other important things underneath! Thanks
