Hi, it can be done, but if your front bedroom is anything like our rear bedroom you will also have to consider relocating you converter/charger; And I know on the rear bedroom set ups twins versus queen, the storage compartments and door locations are different. Something to think about.

We had an Argosy twin but looked a long time and didn't like how crammed the sideways queens were in 25-footers. Personal taste... So we certainly ordered the twins when we got our '06 Safari.

There currently is a small outside storage compartment under the curbside head of your bed. Our twin bed 25' FB has a storage compartment twice that length under the roadside bed. And about a 5' wide storage compartment right over the battery box. There are also more upper hanging cabinets over the bed. A pro or very experienced restorer would do best at giving you something like an OEM 25' FB twin bed unit.

A different unit but the same question - http://www.airforums.com/forums/f46/...ins-47227.html

I need to start a thread with photo documentation of these twin bed benefits. Big as it is, I have mixed feelings about the front compartment. It leaks a bit and the trailer frame flexes a fair amount in this area. We can't open it when our WD bars are engaged.

Roadtoaster switched his queen for twins himself...he did an awesome job and it looks GREAT! You might want to PM him on the details.
