Ralph I installed twin bed in my FC and for a mattress I use the type
they use in the military. Its just the right length and its I think
about 32 Inches across. As the FC'S have there water tank storage on
one side I just had to install a mattress on that side and for the
other side I got from our local Saint Vinnie second hand store the
bottom part of a upscaled water bed with draws. Works great as they
have draws in them already and the price I think I paid around 10 or
15 dollars. You could get two of these units and install them in the
rear bedroom with no big problem of manufacturing the bed frames. Oh
yes the length of the unit Installed was just right also. So check
out some of your local second hand store and you might just find what
you need. I attached a picture of one I got from Saint Vincent
Depaul so you can get a real idea of what I did. Jon
