I've modified the previous bench/sofa/bed supports. The improved system has wall hinges and extra clearance to allow the ramps to pivot. The passenger side is staggered forward here to allow better rear door use.

Dan > The ramp will flatten to the wall. The bench supports are independent of the wall hinges. This allows them to unbolt with a few wrench turns if the floor space is needed.

Dan > I considered making drop-in slots for the metal supports for really quick removal and installation. Or letting it pivot to the side on a hinge. But they're strong and quiet this way. Still pretty quick to unbolt if necessary.

Dan > The rearmost passenger side support is not needed for a staggered bench. It does capture the drop-in cross support for the bed. The simple column is to allow better rear door access. The L-track allows me to install the bench anywhere on this side on 1" multiples.

Dan > Two ramp sections along the driver's side.

Dan > The driver's side bench is installed on a quick release carrier 3.5" off the wall. This brings the edge of the bed just clear of the rear door hinge. I have an alternative bed arrangement that slides the bed out the back door about 27". The upside to the extra clearance is that the bed is effectively wider and easier to make when you're not jammed against a wall.
