The wife wants a drop down Bunk for our GT 378XL

My wife insists that we get a pull down bunk for over the drivers area for the grand-kids. I've searched the forums and the internet but cannot find any information. Has anyone installed one of these? Where do I find them and does anyone have one for sale?


Any help will be greatly appreciated.

That would be really tough to retrofit in. You would have to rip out the drivers area walls to build the supporting structure, if yours even is capable of that. You also would have to assure that your modifications did not weaken the steel cage used for rollover protection. I doubt any vendor of such a bed would sell it to an end user due to the liability if it was improperly installed and it fell down on the driver while moving.

This is the electric one we had factory-installed: https://www.lci1.com/euro-loft-bed-lift-by-project-2000

Time to get her to approve buying a new motorhome, I guess.

Good luck,

Ray

Thanks for the information Ray. A lot to think about.


A new or different MH at this time is out of the question.
