The bracket is about 6" high.  It looks like we are getting rain all day today.  If it stops for a while I'll take a run to the camper for a pic.

It is on mine at least.  There is a bracket that attaches to the floor.  The top of that bracket has the motor and drive track on it.  That is attached to the couch with a sheet of plywood.  So,  I could remove the couch, but I would still have this large sheet of plywood with all the junk on it still there.

I'll see if I can get a picture of it sometime today.

So the couch's structure is part of the slide-out structure?]]> Mon, 07 Oct 2013 20:13:30 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4071&PID=39241#39241 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4071&PID=39209#39209 Author: TerryM

I was going to do some major mods to my 175.  In the slide-out I have the couch and in the back a queen bed.  When I camp I am always alone.  My wife doesn't go.  So here was my idea:

take out the couch and put in a small table and chair.  Then put a bunk bed mattress in place of the queen.  That would enable me to add a storage compartment in the back end next to the bed.

WRONG!
The slide-out is part of the couch.  Can't do it.  Crap!!  I still might do the bed swap though.  That is something to think about.
