Coachmen concord swivel passenger seat

I have a Coachman Concord 2013 on a chevrolet express 4500 frame and would like to put an after market swivel base under passenger seat. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

I did some digging, but cannot find a swivel seat base specific to that model, just generic ones, that may or may not fit. I know that the current 2016 Concord does not list a swivel seat option for the Chevy chassis, but they do for the Ford.... go figure. Do you have a van/truck customizing shop in your area where you could go and ask?

I was told by our salesman that if a swivel seat is offered, the manufacturer has to validate that seat in crash tests. Ford did, Chevy has not as of yet.

I can buy that. I do know a few years back that there were no aftermarket bases available for the Fords due to the various sensors and such that are included in the seats.

I may be wrong but I read on some forum that cheverolet does not have flat floor going from cab to the living area so swivel seats don't work. Never looked at chev frame concord so not sure
