Default slide out mod

was wondering if making the dinette slide out would be worth the trouble or just sell mine and buy one already done!?

Depending on how much time and money you can "invest" into your hi-lo, it would be unique,and different than others, but the time it would take to do correctly, meaning alignment,new aditional guide rails proper hinge locations, seals for all gapswater and weather seals and insolation, then will it be a slideout or a tipout?what about aditional roof supports to handle the weight of 4 people sitting at the dinette ,and aditional lower wall supports or would you use external screw jack supports . It's a lot to think about, I personally would convert a tip-out and move the sleeper sofa to the dinette area and visa-versa. let us know what you decide! best of luck
