Mounting towel bars, toilet paper and paper towel dispensers onto walls

[davidbrady]

Hi Catfuu,

Here's a link that shows what an XLII conversion shell looks like before conversion. The wall studs are around 5.5' apart, but they're somewhat unevenly spaced. Center to center spacing is more uniform in the middle of the but but more squished at the ends. I'm not sure of the post cross section but it's around 2"x4". The first thing the converters do is cover the walls with 5/8" plywood. You can pretty much mount bathroom towel rings, bars, and such anywhere on a wall. If you get unlucky and your screw hits a steel wall stud, then use a shorter screw. If you choose any random outside wall location you're more than likely screwing into plywood.

Glad you found a bus you like. Good luck!
