Is that a water bed?
-
Yea, its in the van, I fill it with RO water just in case I run out of water from my tank, which is underneath the bed.
-
that bed should be ina cage ff's and bolted doon through chassis
-
If I put it in a cage its gonna put the dampeners on my 'converted' custys aint it. Theyre reluctant enough as it is in a van, they'll think Im gonna get the handcuffs out next ;D

Why on earth people put the pumps as high as possible really baffles me. Pumps go at the lowest point. :-X
-

mine is boarded out already, i was planning to rip out the floor section and protectakote it.
hmm...interesting...
-
mine too is a plied floor and fibre glassed to make a tray. Got the pumps high so trolly and 25ltr containers dont hit them. had the pumps like this in the last three vans with no problems.
-
Here's my van, in a messy state lol
-
And this is the outside of the van.

Could work. I use thick microfibre soaked in anti bacterial spray.

place it under the connector in between jobs, so its nice wet and cool for the next job lol ;D ;D

steve cm, I was deciding between a transporter t32, transit 135bhp mwb m/r, and the master
as needed the space for the gutter vac that ruled out the t32 as well as price being 2-3k more, so it was down to the transit and master, i worked for a window cleaning firm for 5 years who run soley renault masters up to 100,000 miles and we didnt have the reliability problems that you here about and the vans were abused really, the only problems we had which were down to relibilty that i recall were clutch pedals sticking to the floor, and one of the vans had a weak turbo
I have friends that work for another local firm who run transits , the front wheel drive ones were blowing gearboxes, so they have now gone to rear wheel drive but they have a reputation of dodgey diffs , funny enough the firm i worked for had a 54 plate transit as a spare and that vibrated badly around 70 mph, So a renault master it was

hi STEVE-UK mine is the front w/d t330 100ps i have had the van up to 90mph and its a sweet has a nut the gearbox problem were down to a bolt on the top off the box whitch gets wet it turn sends it rusty and droped into the box coursing severe damage so i was told to put loads of grease on it and that stops the problem.
-
my tranny has been good as gold and i love them but the renault does look nice to. i need a MWB for a 1000 litre system plus Gutter vac, pressure washer etc.

CONCEPT,
if your going to take out the plywood floor you will probably need a hammer and chisel
to take of the gripfill which sticks the ply to the van.
heres a pic of my van after i removed the ply,i,m only half way there, I tried a sander first
but it was useless

I think its a 50/50 chance with a used van, it just depends on the previous driver and how well its been maintained, although my mate was advised if carrying 1000 litre tank round go for the rwd as there fwd werent lasting in the transits, if i remember right the mwb tranny is slighlty shorter than the master mwb and it maybe tight fitting all the gutter vac kit in, also the load level of the master is lower which i preferred for lifting out gutter kit
-
Anyone noticed the tiny ladder on the top of Steve-UK's tank? Eyes play tricks on you, it looks knee high!

thankfully, the previous owner didnt use gripfill, just a few self tappers!!
protectakoted the bed now, took so long to dry due to the wet conditions we've had, but looks good!
will post pics of mine once its all done.
