I don't know what model Grey Wolf you have but on mine I put as large of piece of 3/4" plywood as woud fit behind the wall I wanted the tv on and bolted the swivel mount to it. Mine was easy to get to as the backside of the wall was the inside of a cabinet. Also ran coax for sattelite to it while I was at it.

same problem...easy solution

i had the similar mount in my 2014 29vt and was told there was wood backer installed behind this mount to make it stable for the tv. I used an electric stud finder and sure enough I was able to determine the size of the wood behind it to make sure that the swivel arm mount was going to be securely mounted onto the wood backer. I ended up using screws of similar length but slightly bigger gauge. I also drilled pilot holes in the wood to prevent splitting and put several more mounting holes than the two provided on the mount to spread the stress out as much as possible. In addition i used a screw with a washer and put up a strap that i can click around the tv keeping it from moving during travel. So far no problems with a 34" tv, hope this helps.

I have the same setup, it works perfectly, we are able to move the tv all over and when it is strapped back when traveling it doesn't move. The behind the wall mount is in the center of the wall, use a stud sensor and it will show you the out line of the mount area. It is the same on both sides of the wall, bed side/living room.
