For a variety of factors, including convenient access, I am planning to use the jack "cubby" for my house batteries. My camper van is headed in the "overlanding" direction, so a lift is coming soon and my stock scissor jack isn't going to do me much good going forward anyway. A pair of group 22NF batteries should fit nicely in that space with room to spare for fuse block, etc. Since I'm building my van without any permanent camper cabinetry (bed platform will be removable, etc.), I like that the batteries will hide behind the stock jack access panel even when the van is in "daily driver" mode.wkastro wrote:Great drawings, J Henry, inspirational, even! Has anyone had a better idea for propane and house battery location? I have been leaning towards a barn-door vehicle, with the spare mounted outside on the door. This frees up some room where the spare used to be, for a house battery or two, and a propane tank well in the floor. I have crawled all over my '03 AWD and can't think of anything better.

Some of the Vanagon campers have swivel seats, which are useful for obvious reasons. Raising the seat 1 5/8" might be a bother - I will check. I wonder if they rattle...
