Sorry, your van lengths are wrong. I've recently been looking at stats, and doing my own measurements. With the extended Ford E-series, I was going to have to remove the front passenger seat to get a 14-foot kayak loaded (straight in, rather than diagonal). And, the E-series extended is 20 inches longer than the standard length van. If you have an E-350 with the space you've noted, then you have something other than an off-the-line van.tatest wrote:
For your own build, a van like the Express or E-Series has about six feet of usable width inside, and I know the E-series has just under 20 feet length behind the front row of seats, standard length, and another 40 inches on the extended length. Chevy Express numbers are similar, might be more generous in length, and the Express does not have an interior wall to get in the way of conversion work. Sprinter, Ram Promaster, Transit, I don't know usable dimensions. I'm working with a E-350 so I know what space that has inside.
When I read the numbers, realized they have to be wrong. I was picking up volume numbers when looking for length. Can't be 20 feet behind the seats if only 18 foot long outside. Need to find the upfitter's specs.
