and Front Passenger(s) Protection on
Van, Bus
The following figure show the standard bulkhead
fixing locations on B-pillar. These are standard
weld nuts. The standard range of Ford bulkheads
can be retro-fitted at these points.
Standard Ford bulkheads do have a clearance
between bulkhead and body structure to allow
natural body flexing and an air circulation from
the cab to the rear load space for ventilation
control.

Air circulation and body flexing must be also given
consideration when engineering an alternative
bulkhead. It is not recommended to restrict
driver's or passenger's seat adjustment travel.
It is the vehicle converter's responsibility to ensure
local current legislation, governing bulkheads and
protective window grilles, is met. It is also the
converter's responsibility to ensure legal load
constraint requirements if using a non Ford
standard bulkhead.
