Building Under Bus Storage Bay from Scratch! Part 2 - Center Support
To transfer the weight of everything we store in the underbay to the frame of the bus as directly as possible, we needed a center support that bolts directly to the frame. This center support carries roughly half the weight of the underbay and loads it directly to the driver's side frame rail. The reason I only used one asymmetric support is that the layout of the bus favors the passenger side and I needed to balance out the weight as best I could using the underbay. It also allows me to store larger items and work in the underbay more easily because i have roughly 5' by 10' of open floorspace in the passenger side underbay. This video was filmed in January of 2021. If you have any questions, comments or concerns, let us know in the comment section below.
We are a husband and wife team that loves to take on hard projects. We finished our bus project after 2 years of hard work and are now enjoying life on the road. We plan to travel for a year or two more while we prepare to homestead in northern Idaho or western Montana. Come join us as we document our journey. Our goal is to inspire you and your fellow viewers to go out and life life the Hard Way.
