Flexsteel Driver and Passenger Seats
#1

Elaine and I are going to be replacing our original Flexsteel seats in the coach, and it occurred to me that some of our Newell Guru friends may have switched theirs out in the past few years. We're not necessarily looking for brand new......just newer than 32 years old, and maybe leather. Ours are still is decent condition, but they are cloth, and are hard to keep clean. If you have changed yours out and still have the ones you took out, and they are in good condition we may be interested in buying them from you. Pictures would be appreciated.

You could also check with Visone for ones out of a wreck, they had some really nice ones when I was looking to replace those in my 77 coach. I ended up buying a high end air suspended class 8 truck seat from a truck wrecking yard that was incredibly comfortable despite being hard as a rock until it warmed up a bit - probably a memory foam thing.

Hi Clarke
There are several RV salvage places in our area. They buy blems and over-runs from the manufacturers. I bought 4 matching leather seats for our '78 Classic several years ago for 1/3 the price of new. They were new discontinued items. Also there are places that replace furniture and remodel RV's I bought two used recliners that need to be reupholstered for $15.00. My plans are to re-do them in the color I want for 1/2 new price.
