29m captain chair floor mod...

[vegasruv24.1]

For me.... it's just wrong...again I will say, industry standards require a seat height of about 18'' the goldie locs fairy tell is just that.... if the seats too high, you get complaints, if it's too low the same... so the standard was set..same with rise and tread on stairs...people just expect it to be right,... and when it's not....complaints...


I've done this mod before, and I seem to keep adding to it..this time a light bulb switched on....hey, I could make some very usable storage there

[vegasruv24.1]

the way it is now, when you turn the seats it's 25''...

[vegasruv24.1]

the other thing is the pass. side cup holder...way too low

[vegasruv24.1]

I pulled the cup holder out and looked to make sure the wires would be long enough after the floor is raised, with the floor raised it will be right at seat height..

[vegasruv24.1]

So the plan is to extend the raised floor out 12'' , it's 14'' to the slide out...I will then re mount the cup holder cabinet on top of the raised floor

it will get dyna mat, rebound pad and carpet, cuts the road noise way down..cooler in the summer, and warmer in the winter...this is the first time Ive done it with a box, usually just exted the floor and carpet it... this would be a good mod for full timers ..cool place to stock up on can goods

[vegasruv24.1]

as you can see I now have a place to rest my feet...

[vegasruv24.1]

the cup holder is now 6'' higher, and you don't have to get on your hands and knees to read the solar or inverter

Very nice and useful mod.

[vegasruv24.1]

I always end up with junk in the coach with no where to put it...building plans, extra screws and such,,

[vegasruv24.1]

makes it nice to be able to lift the lid and get what you want

[vegasruv24.1]

anyway, this is my mod, likes and dis likes welcome,so post away, like to hear what you think,... gotta put the carpet on hold till I find some to match the stairwell

That is what I call using usable space. Awesome. Every little cubby helps.

[vegasruv24.1]

here's some pics of my 2019 winniebago that I did a similar mod to

[vegasruv24.1]

heres the look finished,never thought about making it storage till today....better late than never I guess...IMO... this is something that they should do when they bulid them... wouldn't cost any more

[halfprice]

thanks,..I really don't like the linoleum , it amplifies the road noise...and the carpet makes the cab area cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter..I seen some thick rubber mat some where, can't remember.. but that would be nice also to deaden the sound also... still open to ideas there....on our pace they gave you extra floor tiles

[vegasruv24.1]

found some carpet at home depot that's a match.....real rear close.....when you put it next to whats there... can't tell the difference anyway... so next week that'll be the project to get this finished...going camping today....
