Hoonah Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I recently got a 91 Sunrader, with the bathroom in the back. I am hoping someone can help me figure out the front couch. The hardware holding the back of the couch in place is gone. I can't figure out: #1 did the couch convert to a bed? #2 what hardware do I need to reattached the couch backrest - does anyone have a picture so I know what I am looking for? Thank you so much (in advance) for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoonah Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Thanks Totem - I attached pics. I attached one of the couch, and one of the backrest. Can you see the screw holes on the back rest? Hope you can help solve the mystery! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 You had a flip sofa like this. back of the sofa pulls forward and flips around to become part of the bed http://southbend.craigslist.org/rvs/5189169356.html I have searched in the past for others and I have never been able to find anywhere to buy just the hardware.

Hoonah Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Thanks Linda - I am happy to know what it is called, but sad to know it will be difficult to find a replacement hinge. Dang-o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoonah Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 Hi Linda - After a little searching I found this hinge, on craigslist, for $35! It was welded to a *nasty rotten* couch from some doge econo van thing. I took the whole couch, cut and knocked the welds off (super duper hassle), removed the hinges, and installed in my Sunrader. Now my couch back doesn't fall down!!! Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
