Title: Electric reels
Post by: C.C.S. on April 27, 2018, 10:13:50 am: Hi. I'm trying to fit 2 electric reels in my van , fiat doblo maxi, 1 each near the wheel arches. Also I'm fitting rollers under the van and trough the floor , similar to the ones from waterworks . The problem I have on the right hand side under the van the exhaust It's in the way so not sure how to go round . One solution is to fit one next to each other but not totally convinces about it . I guess would be the same for vauxhall combos. I have the power hd reels.
I would appreciate your feedback .
Thank you

I guess it is but I'm quite all organized and.i like smaller vans . Plus there is quite a lot of space on the sides

That's probably the best viable solution without getting it over complicated. Although I did try to remove the spare wheel but I never used it and It's stuck so I'll have to take it to 're garage as don't want to push too hard and break something . Thanks for your reply

Forgot to say the carpet cleaning machine is not used very often . It's only in the van at the moment so I can fit the trolley and leave enough space for it .
