one reason I could drop the floor.

I don't understand........

Does this mean to be able to modify for installation of the wheel chair lift?


Raise the roof..

Headroom?

Both. My son is 6ft tall and cannot duck getting in and out of the van.

Dropping the floor and raising the roof for clearance. Also I can walk around without bending over to work around the chair. First van was a Chevy Astro long time ago and walking around bent put strain on an already strained back.

He is getting a new chair with smaller wheels lowering his height so that will help.

The Ford I moved the gas tank and was able to drop the floor. The Chevy van did not have a conversion kit for its gas tank.

Hope that helps.
