Camper fold out bed seat

Been thinking about building one of these. Found this link and thought maybe you guys might get some use out of it too. I dont really need any diagrams because I diy pretty much everything, but it IS a pretty cool setup! When I get around to building mine, I'll put up some pics too. Have a great day!

That is a pretty good layout and fairly adaptable to different sizes and shapes. Nice Link !

yes, good stuff. I've been thinking about getting the bed/couch out of an astro conversion anyway but I'd probably rather make something like this so it fits just right.

The big thing for me is to have it secure/safe and have seat belts so the kids can ride back there.

bolt the seat belts down thru the floor the same way the front seats are done, the seat selts are not alloud to be bolted to the seat.

^ Yeah I heard somewhere about an accident here a few years back the guy was in an old jeep where the seat belts bolt to the seat. Wrapped the jeep around a pole and the kid flew out...Still seat belted to the seat. The seat was still with him. Scary. They make super long aftermarket seat belts. Should be long enough to bolt to the floor. And yeah, I wouldnty let my girl ride in the back til I have seatbelts!!! (maybe some of my friends tho... ha!

Ive got seatbelts what I noticed in the vid is it looks like a standard "jack knife" couch like a camper has. It needs a manual latch of some sort so it doesnt jack-knife open in the event of an impact (seat belts or not). Wouldnt be hard to do, just put in a latch of some sort.

Sounds like a cool project. Can't wait to see the pics. I hope your friends don't see that comment! LOL
