Hey all-
It has been a couple of years since I converted my van from a Weekender to a Camper and I held off on doing hook up boxes. I wanted to see if I would be happy without them, and I also wanted to wait until I had saved up for paint before cutting into the van. I have decided that I do indeed want them (120v, solar and water fill) and paint is just around the corner. I would like to install them in the stock location, but haven't found any measurements (I swear, I used the search!). If anyone has those measurements, or wouldn't mind taking some, I would greatly appreciate the info! _________________ 1986 Westy Weekender

what do you need? measurements from the top/bottom and from the edge of the door?
I can get them tomorrow if no one else has them. _________________ Currently -> Frida: 87 Tizian Red (mostly) Vanagon GL Westfalia w/ 2.0L ABA conversion

The easiest might just be from the bottom of the belt line to the top of the boxes, and from the seam to the right of the boxes to the vertical edge of the rightmost box. I know how they are spaced from there thanks to the GoWesty 4th hookup box install video. I appreciate the help! _________________ 1986 Westy Weekender

Don't know if the '90 boxes are in the same exact location as your rig but I can always come up to SF and let you measure away. _________________ '90 Westy / automatic.
If I'm not working on the camper or my '50 Chebbie truck, I'm either fishing with the wife or smoking Salmon.
