Followed your lead on the Transit seats for my Chevy van. The foam, plywood, carpet install is so clean!
There is a seller on e-bay with tons of these seats with brackets. ( I got a 3 seater )

Great choice! We have a similar build as what you're describing and have used it to sleep in ski area parking lots for hundreds of nights.

Those are definitely sharp. I do not have a pic on hand but the under carriage of the Express vans have a large heat shield that prevents access to the underside of the floor. Do Ford vans have have something similar? Any advice for dealing with the shield? Thanks for the insight - - much...

I hear you 100% I have an awd Express and am very limited by clearance (and an exposed 30 gallon plastic gas tank). I can honestly say that in all of my travels with the van the only time I have really needed the awd is in the snow, jongs.
They are both regular 6 Volts. I would prefer to keep them as they are relatively new. I am pretty sure that frame mounted batteries came standard on some Ford Vans? I just want the room in the interior.....
I am looking for ideas for the mounting of two 6 volt auxiliary batteries in an Express Van. Currently I have both batteries mounted inside of a wooden box that is vented by two holes cut into the floor.
