G'day all
we have just joined & read with interest the post re: 4wd canter dual cabs.(bloffy)
we are in the planning stages of building a 4 berth camper onto a twin cab Canter 4wd chassis.
we have a disabled daughter (6) who is confined to a wheelchair.
we would like to hear from anyone who travells with a disabled child with the idea of swapping information.
we have travelled some very remote areas & plan to continue too once we get our new truck built.
also anyone with pros & cons of wheelchair lifts for high chassis vehicles, I would like to hear from you as most companies only cater for 2wd vehicles.
Thanks

Rod maybe their is a retired engineer in the forum members that could help.

My idea would be based on 2 hydr.rams mounted either side of a modified width door to siut a chair and a base that folds flat for traveling and stows in the door frame then have access from the camperto the cab.

Any way I'm sure their are better brains out there to help you out.

we are looking to get a Tieman lift fitted but with extenable rams in the final section to lower it closer to the ground, this would enable us to get the lift lower depending on the terrain, so yes if there are any people involved with this type of construction then please contact me with your idea's

TIA
