No one has any pictures? If I remember correctly they used U channel. I don’t remember what supports they attached to.

My other van I have the supports mounted to the side walls with no problems. I guess I will try and do the same with this one.
Or just wrap em up and throw em on top of everything else in the van. I see a lot of craigslist vans that do this.

I believe Hydramaster makes one. They had it at Scottsdale in there van with the Titan.

I got the reel up, probably going to push it closer to the wall but seems sturdy so far.
I like that! Is that a medium roof transit? My concern would be that the metal will fatigue over time where the reel braces mount. I was considering the same thing with my set up and decided without additional supports to the floor it will fail.
Looks superior to a POS Transit. It must be a Promaster.

Yes it’s a medium roof. I might put a brace mount to the floor but not sure yet. Seems sturdy now but we will see once we actually get hose on and start using it.

In the above pictured install, perhaps during design and installation of wall shelving, a vertical support could be added that wouldn't interfere with anything else.
