The Ford Transit Custom LWB Front Elevating Roof Conversion (2012–2024+) has long been one of the most popular choices for campervan conversions. Its extended wheelbase offers generous interior space, making it ideal for creative layouts and comfortable long-term use. However, without additional headroom, even the most practical layouts can feel restrictive.

That’s why Pop Top Nation’s Front Elevating Roof Conversion is a game-changer. Professionally designed to integrate seamlessly with the Transit Custom LWB — including both the legacy (2012–2023) and the new-generation (2024+) models — this pop-top roof delivers valuable standing height, improved ventilation, better natural light, and the option for an additional sleeping berth. It’s the ultimate upgrade for unlocking your van’s full potential.

🧱 Purpose-Built for the Ford Transit Custom LWB

Rather than adapting a generic system, this roof is engineered specifically for the long-wheelbase Transit Custom. The front-lifting design focuses on the main living and kitchen area, giving you the standing height you need where you use it most.

Compatible with:

• Legacy Ford Transit Custom LWB (2012–2023)

• New-generation Ford Transit Custom LWB (2024+)

This ensures a precise fit, consistent seal integrity, and a professional finish — all while maintaining the van’s original silhouette.

🔧 What’s Included

Every Pop Top Nation elevating roof conversion comes complete with:

• A precision-moulded front-lifting fibreglass roof shell

• Marine-grade, breathable canvas in a choice of colours

• Flush-mounted LED ceiling lighting with hidden wiring

• A reinforced internal steel frame for maximum strength and safety

• Corrosion-resistant stainless steel hinges and premium fixings

• A full sealing and bonding system for all-weather durability

• Professional installation by our experienced team

• A 5-Year warranty covering both parts and labour

This is more than just a roof — it’s a functional, long-term upgrade built to enhance your campervan experience.

🌟 Key Features & Benefits

• Standing Room Where It Counts
  The front-lifting design provides full standing height in your cooking and living areas, transforming daily life inside the van.

• Tailored for the LWB Model
  This is not a stretched version of a SWB roof. It’s engineered for the LWB Transit Custom’s unique dimensions, ensuring strength, correct proportions, and weatherproof sealing.

• Factory-Look Finish
  When closed, the roof sits low and streamlined, maintaining the van’s sleek appearance and aerodynamic efficiency.

• UK-Made for All Seasons
  Built to handle the unpredictable British climate, the roof stands up to rain, wind, and summer heat alike.

• Integrated LED Lighting
  Flush-fitted LEDs illuminate your camper’s interior while keeping a clean, professional look.

🧱 Built for Durability and Real-World Travel

At Pop Top Nation, we prioritise quality and reliability. Our roof conversions are designed for the demands of travel, whether you’re commuting during the week or touring Europe.

Key construction highlights include:

• Heavy-duty, hand-laid fibreglass shells

• Corrosion-resistant stainless steel hardware

• Marine-grade canvas with reinforced seams

• High-quality rubber seals for waterproofing

• A rigid steel strengthening frame for structural integrity

The result is a roof that performs as well as it looks — mile after mile, year after year.
