New to the AS world.
Our new (to us) 2001 30' Classic w/so came with no front seating.
We are open to any suggestions.
The battery box appears to offer a challenge.
Thanks

Has anyone changed out the sofa for two recliners on a 28ft. FC rear bed? I'm looking at Camping World Heritage series "wall huggers" but it looks like I'd have to remove the back storage area as well as the sofa to gain the extra room needed. Then I have the issue with the electrical connections against the wall behind the sofa. Then there is the door. Fully extended, the recliner is about 66" deep. Does anyone have experience with this specific conversion?

We have to fabricate new covers for the side arm storage but that’s easy.

I built the countertop to the left which was a great extension to the Galley.

Has anyone replaced their sofa on a Land Yacht motorhome slide out with recliners? Notice there is a s/o mechanism underneath. Looking for ideas.

our switch

pulled the sofa out of ours after the first year of traveling, and had AS built the center console to cover the wiring block and offer a folding table, day and night

Sofa replacement

When we purchased our 2001 Classic Slideout the previous owner had removed the sofa as part of an unfinished remodel.
That was fine with us as we had planned from the get go to put in recliners.
We did search for a long time (like Goldilocks) to find the ones that were just right - comfortable and would actually fit through the door without dismantling.
We did find two, finally, at a local furniture store.
Each came with a footstool.
We have subsequently removed one of the footstools as we found, that at least for us, that we only ever really used one and the other was occupying prime real estate.
I would advise; do not go cheap or be in a hurry.
Get the best you can find that fit your bodies.
We have not secured them to the floor and it has not been a problem.
I believe the name brand was Stressless.
