<p>The invention relates to an extendable module support mechanism usually stored within the body of a vehicle for outwardly extending the body of the vehicle. The mechanism comprises: a base securable within the body, to the floor or chassis of the vehicle including two spaced linear bearing members; a module floor member including two spaced and generally parallel linear bearing slideways each cooperable with a respective one of the two linear bearing members; and a powered actuator for moving the floor member in the direction of the slideways and relative to the base into and out of the a body. The invention extends to a method of adapting a vehicle for providing a vehicle module stored inside the body of a vehicle which module is extendable outwardly of the vehicle from a retracted position to an extended position, the method comprising the steps of : a) removing at least one door from the body of the vehicle; b) providing a body module for storing generally inside the body c) re-fitting the removed door(s) to the body module.</p> |
