What to think about when converting a van

To get the most out of your campervan, there are some factors that warrant consideration before exploring a van conversion. The most immediate of these is the size of the van and what you plan to use it for. Fortunately, the MakRak doesn’t have the traditional limitations of other conversion systems, meaning it can accommodate many different practical functions. Other considerations should include ease of entering and exiting the back of the vehicle, the amount of storage space when the rack is set up, and how comfortable it is to sleep in.
