Ribbed side's in the interior

Where can I find these vertical pieces? They seem pretty helpful when making side panels

I'm not sure about those. But I did run across a ready-made wall panel kit:

Re: Ribbed side's in the interior

I've also looked for those exact stays or ribs or whatever we call them!

I was told by a U-Haul dealer they're a proprietary item supposedly made exclusively for or by U-Haul---which I find highly improbable.

I've contacted U-Haul about this and have not yet heard back---need to remind them I'm seeking some info!

A friend wants to insulate and cover his side walls of a straight cargo van and I've considered using standard metal house frame studs. Used only to support fiberglass reinforced paneling these would make stellar starting points. Easy to trim and form to the inside body contours and cheap too!

U-haul has a parts catalog online. Actually not a bad source for OEM Ford van parts.

I don't think they are proprietary to U-Hual, there are a few vans for sale in the Denver area that have them installed. Maybe hit up your local Ford dealer?

Re: Ribbed side's in the interior

I was surfing Craigslist looking for a donor van and see a 2012 with 8300 miles that has those side ribs. The photo in their ad looks almost identical to yours. Maybe you could source them by contacting the dealer? This was in Battle Creek MI
