Good morning all
Removed back fold down seat over water tank to clean it and set new
water hoses and clean up area. Before I put seat back is there a good
way to set a regular bed in back area. I really do not need the two
small couches but would like a more practical back area. Any suggestions
would be appreciated
Thanks

Build a platform in the back with lifts so you can easily access the area underneath. A full size mattress will fit back there. We use a "Travasack" for sleeping. That way we don't have to struggle to make up the bed. It works out well for us.

I put a 54" x 72" futon mattress in mine.
This is a little larger than the 53" x 72" ,but it will fit.

FWIW, here's what I did to our 78 Royale. Fits a queen bed.
