I am all about space saving. But how much space can you actually save in a Ford Transit Connect? This video shows you the parts that I bought to make my very own bed lift for $200. Not counting the bed frame. A bed lift will give me a full size bed and still manage to have a sink cabinet underneath. Best of both worlds. The bed frame was made out of 1"x3" extruded aluminum. Just a simple electric motor, a drive shaft, and some seatbelts and I have myself a very simple yet effective method for raising and lowering a bed in my camper van. Something that has been very desirable with recent builds.
Honestly, I didn't think it would fit in the smallest of smalls van build with the Transit connect. But all signs point to success. Now I can build out the rest of the van!
