How to Fix RV Sofa Bed Frame: Quick Plywood Repair & Replacement Guide for Sagging Support

Apparently my 2006 motorhome's hide-a-bed frame started sagging completely to the floor yesterday and now it won't even support a pillow without collapsing. Our 2006 motorhome came with this lovely feature where the hide-a-bed frame has given up on life and decided gravity is its new best friend.

The support system is shot, and getting this whole sofa out for a complete overhaul sounds about as fun as changing a tire in the rain.

What should we look for in terms of mounting systems and comfort features? I want to make sure whatever we install won't become a projectile if we have to brake hard with the family aboard. …more
