I'm back from working on his van (one day the painful week long story will be told), and I kinda forget the measurements :) I think it was 78" at the raised portion, and 71" at the low portion. Add 3/4" for models with no insulation. alistair On 2013-03-03, at 3:52 PM, neil n wrote: > Very helpful Alistair.
