Bulkhead Storage?

Postby Agger79 » Fri May 12, 2017 9:46 pm

Hey lads, has anyone removed (cut off) the top part of rear bulkhead so you can use area above cab headlining for storage??

I don't know about all models but all mk 8 L4 H3 jumbos I have looked at the bulkhead only went up to the top of the cab and had a small storage space above the drivers all bar 1 had the Ford steel bulkhead fitted one had a wooden one and it was the same.do not forget that the cab roof on the mk8 high roof is higher then the mk7 so give more headroom and has as a small shelf and a space for a tacograft and two way radio.

I removed the entire bulkhead in mine for a motorhome conversion. This is what it looks like...

When you removed the whole bulkhead, did it look possible to cut off just the top bit??

The single passenger seat was a factory option. Yes I fitted swivels, purchased from Kiravans.
