Roof hammock / bunk

[Vix26June]

Please help. We have a 1973 Autosleeper Deluxe and we are struggling to work out how to fit the hammock / bunk in the roof / pop top and what poles we need. It looks like we can only fit one, however i am probably wrong! Does any one have any suggestions or photos you could share with me?

Welcome to the Madhouse - we all need help on here
There's a couple of Autosleeper bunk types, one that is housed in a long locker (these are normally used when there's two fitted) and a roll out type that are stored on a shallow shelf on the right hand side of the van. I've got the latter type - I'll see if I can dig out any pics

Any help?

Thanks everyone. The bunk shown in 'admin's' photo it the one we are trying to set up but I wasn't expecting the pole/stand to look like this! What does it look like at the bottom??? Also how do you stop the bunk falling off the shelf at the top?!!! Sorry if my questions sound stupid but without the hammock and poles it hard to see how it goes. Luckily my husband has managed to made a new frame for a hammock to go in the cab.

More photos please if you can!

The bunk is attached to the shelf and rolls up onto it for storage, the leg at the end fits into a block with a hole in it that is screwed to the floor between the wardrobe and sink cabinet. Hope this helps
You can see it in this picture
