Compatible Tec Vanlife L-Track The back framing can be incorporated into installations using compatible Tec Vanlife L-track profiles: Surface-Mount Rounded L-Track Square Surface-Mount L-Track Matte Black Flanged L-Track Flanged/Recessed BEEFY L-Track 100-Inch Flanged/Recessed BEEFY L-Track Confirm the L-track mounting-hole locations and installation requirements before drilling or permanently installing the back framing. Installation Position the back framing against the van’s internal structure before installing insulation and finished wall panels. The finished panel is installed over the framing, allowing the L-track to be secured through the panel and into the reinforced mounting points. Plan the location of furniture, beds, cabinets, cargo restraints and other L-track-mounted equipment before permanently attaching the framing. The vehicle structure, back framing, fasteners, L-track and installation method must all be suitable for the intended application. Decorative wall panels, flooring and thin sheet material should not be treated as structural mounting surfaces without appropriate reinforcement. Professional installation is recommended for load-bearing or safety-critical applications. Frequently Asked Questions What is L-track back framing used for? L-track back framing creates structural mounting points behind a camper van’s finished interior panels. It allows compatible L-track to be secured into reinforced steel rather than relying only on decorative plywood, fabric-covered panels or thin vehicle sheet metal. How long is each back-framing section? Each section measures 84 inches long and 2⅛ inches wide. What is included in the two-pack? The two-pack includes two 84-inch L-track back-framing sections. L-track and mounting hardware are sold separately. What is included in the three-pack? The three-pack includes three 84-inch L-track back-framing sections. L-track and mounting hardware are sold separately. Are mounting screws included? No. Mounting screws and rivets are sold separately. Shop our 12-pack of tapered flat-head L-track mounting screws. How many mounting holes are provided? Each 84-inch back-framing section has 12 mounting holes. The outer mounting positions are spaced 8 inches centre to centre, while the two central positions are spaced 3½ inches centre to centre. Where is the back framing installed? The back framing is normally installed against suitable internal vehicle structure before the insulation and finished wall panels are added. The L-track is then attached through the finished panel and into the reinforced framing. Can it be installed behind a finished wall panel? The framing is designed to sit behind the finished panel. For the cleanest and safest installation, its position should be planned before completing the wall assembly. Installing it after the walls are finished may require removing or modifying the existing panels. Which L-track profiles are compatible? The framing is intended for compatible Tec Vanlife L-track installations, including selected surface-mounted, square, flanged and recessed profiles. Confirm mounting-hole alignment and installation requirements before permanently attaching either component. Is the back framing vehicle-specific? The framing is not limited to one van model. It may be incorporated into compatible Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Ford Transit, Ram ProMaster, RV, trailer and cargo-vehicle installations. Compatibility depends on the available mounting location, vehicle structure, interior layout and installation method. Can the back framing be cut to length? Cutting or modifying the framing may affect the available mounting holes, welded mounting points, corrosion protection and structural performance. Plan the layout around the 84-inch length whenever possible. Any modification should be evaluated and completed by a qualified installer. What is the load capacity? A safe working-load rating cannot be determined from the back framing alone. The completed system’s capacity depends on the vehicle structure, fasteners, attachment spacing, L-track profile, installation quality and direction of loading. The entire installation must be designed for its intended use. Can Tec Vanlife install the back framing and L-track? Yes. Professional L-track and back-framing installation is available through Tec Vanlife in Delta, British Columbia.
