Is it ok to put a Maxxair fan here?
Yup, I am back with another question for my new van build! I got the biggest and fanciest Maxx fan, for a great price. But then someone questioned whether it would cause my roof to vibrate and thus...

Thanks, BFL and Mex, it sounds like I do need to take steps to make it more rigid. The roof does not curve MUCH, so making a piece of wood to transition from curve to flat probably means a sander rather than a saw.
I guess I would use a plywood square the size of fan flange, cutout for fan and sanded to fit curve of roof. Stiffer than 1x2s. I have scraps of ext plywood in all thicknesses. I am guessing 3/8 or 1/2", as 3/4 would be heavy, unless I need it for the curve.
Is there a preference of inside vs outside for the wood?
