Longsleeper© for the Ducato/Jumper/Boxer

Article 1280

The Longsleeper© for Ducato/Boxer/Jumper

The challenge!

Many tall van drivers know the problem:
the advantages of a compact van come at the expense of the length of the lying area in the rear of the vehicle.
At the suggestion of many "cross sleepers" and the motorhome service centers, functional-design has developed the GRP Longsleeper©, for mounting on the rear side panels, the driver and/or passenger side.

These products are also called rear widening / flares / ears / cross beds for panel vans.

 

The solution!

The Longsleeper© made of GRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic) provides a great feeling of space in the rear! With transverse bed layouts, the "XL customers" finally get enough length for a relaxed sleep. The possible cut-out dimension of 547 mm x 1295 mm and the max. depth of 100 mm allow a large scope for insulation, panelling and help enormously in the optimal use of space.
Visually, the "chubby cheek" also does not need to hide. The installation is possible on the right as well as on the left. In the direction of travel on the right only with a corresponding door stop (available as an accessory at www.eurocarry.de).

Important: The Longsleeper© is attached via an inwardly cranked adhesive and mounting shoulder on the side panel. Thus the mounting is invisible! The GRP attachment is fixed with 1K-PU glue and 12 pieces of M6 screws. This allows maximum flexibility in the choice of the actual sheet metal cutout. Just stay within the range of the maximum cutout (1295 x 547), taking into account your floor plan or furniture construction.

The Longsleeper© is delivered with a "Splinter appraisal". The Splinter appraisal of the TÜV Rheinland is assigned to the GRP body of the Longsleeper© and is not vehicle-bound. The bed widening is delivered with detailed papers and a sample certificate for obtaining the operating permit. Thus, the registration at the TÜV without problems!

The quality

Other names for the longsleeper are rear widening, ears, flares or body widening.

The color variants
The Longsleeper© is available ready for installation in pure white (RAL 9010) visible gelcoat. The glossy gelcoat is UV-stable and can be repolished at any time.

The surface quality of our Longsleeper© is so high that many of our customers with a white base vehicle refrain from painting and the associated additional costs. All our products are "Hand Made in East Westphalia" and are therefore subject to high quality standards.

Painting on the visible gelcoat is of course also possible. Please ask the painter of your confidence.

The costs
See our  price list.

The assembly

The GRP attachment can be mounted even by private customers with manual skills.
The assembly is supported with the CNC drilled mounting template (item 1281). The mounting template is part of the elaborate packaging and must be ordered with the shipment.
In most cases, a vertical strut must be removed in the cutout area. The strut is only slightly dotted and glued to the outer sheet. Dismantling is done without hesitation and without problems! A side window is located here in the standard conversions of many manufacturers.

Transfer the cutout and the holes for fixing from the template to the vehicle, then drill fixing holes and insert the cutout you have defined. On the X250/290 Ducato, the mounting holes are all in the area of chassis reinforcements. On the Sprinter and co., aluminum strips (20 mm x 2 mm) should be placed on the inside for reinforcement, depending on the mounting position. Place the GRP Longsleeper© over the internal and thus invisible adhesive or mounting shoulder, tighten the twelve M6 fixing screws, remove excess adhesive and the assembly is done. On request, functional-design can also supply the appropriate 1K adhesive and mounting screws.

The insulation should be done with 10 mm extreme insulator. The cladding is done individually in the interior design of the vehicle. Velour has proven itself here.
