Flarespace Ford Transit Campervan Body Flares (148"EL)
Typically ships in 3-4 weeks.
Looking to sleep sideways in your Ford Transit 148"EL extended-body camper van? These Flarespace Ford Transit Campervan Body Flares (148"EL) replace the stock rear upper body panels in your extended Transit van, providing extra lateral space to enable you to sleep sideways in your campervan. Install these flares, and you'll be able to have a 80" wide sleeping platform and a very comfortable night's sleep, without interfering with any of the doors on the van.
The extra space saved from orienting the bed sideways (almost 24") can be used to store bikes, add extra cabinetry or whatever else you need.
Choose your preferred combination for each side (driver’s/passenger’s) of your flare set from the following three window options:
- No Window Cutouts - The flares are solid, providing extra sleeping space and maximum privacy and insulation possibilities.
-
Flares with cutout for Flarespace's FS1033R Half-slider and FS1033L Half-slider windows
- These popular half-slider windows have a horizontal, screened sliding pane, allowing extra ventilation and light in the sleeping area, and can also be left open while driving. - Flares with cutout for Flarespace's FS1033 Awning window - These awning windows are hinged at the top, have a full screen, and crank out with a knob to a 10 degree angle at the bottom. Can be open even in rainy conditions.
Note: Windows are sold separately. Click the links above to learn about each window and add to cart. All 148 EL flares are regular depth, allowing for extra space on the interior of your van.

FAQ: Flarespace Ford Transit Campervan Body Flares (148"EL)
- Who can install flares? Campervan HQ can provide you with a list of trained installers in your area, or any professional auto body shop can paint and install flares.
- How are they installed? Your installer will paint your flares to match the color of your Transit van. The rear quarter panel is cut out along the factory lines, with the same size cut out as a window. The flares are glued in using the supplied 3M adhesive and sealant. Installers are supplied with detailed step-by-step instructions, including a video and written instructions. Install takes about 4 hours, plus a day to cure.
- Does the sliding door need to be modified? The stock Transit sliding door will open fully without modifications. This also applies for slider doors with CR Laurence windows and T-vent window knobs.
- Will the rear doors still open 270 degrees? If you install an extended door stopper on the rear door, the Transit's rear doors can still be opened fully without touching the flares.
