Those steps use a special hinge for the threshold attachment. You can see the cabinet sized version in these pics. The second pic shows how they attach. In order to use their method I would have to buy at least one of their steps (to get the hinge) and modify it. I figure the cost to be...
The picture in post #10 shows two fuel tanks standing up - they will be mounted flat. Believe me, water tanks don't cost anywhere near what these did.
Post #1 has one of my sub-floor drawings. The fuel tanks are shaded orange in the drawing. The two tanks at the top of the drawing are for...
Found a good video on a sliding bed frame that a guy made for his Sprinter van. My bed frame area is that dash/dot line at the bottom of the pic in post #2. The blue line is the halfway point and where I will collapse the bed to. This bed is almost the size of a queen, and collapsed will free...

So...I started my process...
