Part Numbers

I'm trying to get the part number for the overhead drop down bunk bed brackets that were optional equipment starting in 2012. My local camping world said they cant order anything without a part number from Forest River so I am trying to do the leg work. Is there a contact at Forest River that might be able to help me with this?

Let me know if you are successful. I was told by FR that a bunk cannot be installed post production. Dealer could not find such h a kit either.

I was told that it's a $2500 kit and could be done aftermarket with my 364ts. That's an expensive bed and that was just parts. Plus you have to pull out the front cabinet then

overhead bunk

So I have gotten info from Forest river that the bunk can be added post production. I looked at a new one on the lot and you don't have to remove the cabinets just the map lights that are mounted on them to give clearance. The price I got a few weeks ago was $1800 from my local dealer which was the parts for the complete set up. At this point I am looking to just get the actual pull down mechanism and I can fabricate all the trim and such and then pick my own mattress. I will keep you guys updated with my progress.

Overhead bunk

So here is an update on my progress. I was able to get a part number from my dealer and got confirmation from Jason at Forest River Parts that it is the correct number for the Drop down Bunk Assembly. So I ordered it up today at a cost of $450. I am awaiting a tracking number and hopefully will get something within the next week or so. I am not 100% sure what is included but when it arrives I will fill you in on what I got and what I still need to possibly fabricate to complete the install!!!

We have the TV in the front and I really wanted the bunk for our 364ts. Let me know how this goes. If I can add it that'd be great news and not overly expensive. They originally told me it was $2500 just for parts
