Lift needed for king size bed!
In my 31 foot Excella I replaced the aft bedroom twin beds with a king size bed hinged on a metal frame. The two 120 lbs lift pistons, 20" extended, (Camping World, Suspa pistons) I installed do not come near the lift needed to allow the bed to be manually lifted open and remain open to gain access to the under-bed storage. (I have them mounted midway on the frames horizontally when the bed is down, with manually assist required to get them up to about 45 degrees.)
Anyone have any ideas on how to automate the lifting process? I've had to install a temporary block and tackle rope system to do the lifting (after my back gave out!)
