Hello everyone, winter is here time to build a footrest for the 4905. The seat mount is 5" below main level and over the entrance way, like a bird in a tree. Need lots of thots. What has everyone done for this problem? Thanks all

Larry,
I welded a couple angle iron brackets to a set of drawer slides and bolted these to seat pedestal base. A footrest was built and attached to the over part of the drawer slides. A 12 volt linear actuator was added, controlled by a switch in the wall next to the co-pilots seat. An article about this was in Coach Builders Bulletin. Let me know if you want/need photos. Jack |

Larry, I welded in two square tubes under the seat and used them as receivers.I then used square tubes that fit inside. I made a barber chair stile footrest. When we travel I side it into place. When we stop I reove it and it works real well. Just thought this was a low cost way to go. We have used it for six years. Just the waY i DID IT TO MY 4905. Mike4905 |

We have a panel that hinges on the bottom against the dash directly in front of the passenger seat. The back of the panel is finished to match the dash with a handrail for entering the coach. When the panel is folded down it acts as a floor in front of the passenger seat. Folded up it looks like part of the dash.
I don't have any pictures of it. If my description isn't sufficiently clear I could take some. |
