Title: Another conversion question!
Post by: steve5B on January 20, 2009, 03:39:54 PM


   Once again I have another question, other than things that physically need to be built in the shell, will everything Else

   fit through the door?  My windows have been installed so that wouldn't work.  I rather not remove the windshield. 


   My coach is a 1976 MCI-5B.


   Thanks!  Steve 5B..

I found it to be a regular thing to always measure before purchasing what ever it is your looking to purchase!

My MCI 7 has the same door, and everything fit.  However - non RV furniture may be a problem, also think about refrigerators.  Some for RV's are pretty big.  Definitely check a fridge if it is a household fridge.  My queen size bed seemed to be a max fit, so be careful if a king in in your plans.  Shower stalls can be difficult too if they are a fully molded surround and base. 

Keep up with questions!  The only question that is wrong is the one not asked!

Steve,
    I have one thing in my bus that wouldn't fit through the door.   It is the closet which is on rollers and normally sits over the bathtub but can be rolled back over a bed, to use the tub.  It had to be assembled inside the bus.  Even the standard sized jetted tub and my kitchen cabinets came in through the door.

If you use an RV reefer, no problem-if you use a household type, you'll probably have to pop out the windshield.  Good Luck, TomC

We had to take the co-pilot seat out so we could get the foldout sleeper sofa in, it barely made it but was better than having to take out the windshield.
