I added a Whirlpool to our coach- never had a problem.

Go to the bus nuts website- they have all converted buses there

I live in Weatherford and do inspections. I have been involved with coaches since buying my first in 1975.

Jack- your signature doesn't say what year your coach is. Your friend got taken. You don't have to replace rollers, take out slides to do flooring. That notion is a cash cow for the dealers. There are a few kinds of slides and how they articulate. One type- has arms under the floor and nothing from the slide touches the floor. There are rollers that are embedded in the floor and the slide glides over them. Then there are slides that have rollers on the slide and roll over the floor. Then there are Teflon slide pieces that impact the floor. Then- there is a combination of all the above. WHEW

YUP- what Mike said

Vinyl planks- glue them with manufacturers recommendation adhesive- not peel and stick. I use Mannington Adura.

I have seen the edges come loose. If you can keep coach climate controlled- should be no problem. Heat and cold extremes do strange things.

If you can get the Dremel under the cabinets, that will work. Bear in mind- this will produce a tremendous cloud of dust. If you have a high volume shop vac, that will help. As long as the rollers can travel back and forth without a void- or space- you should be fine. On this Dutch Star I'm working on, we were able to get the laminate from under the rollers and the wood will slide under them without an issue. We will not move the slide till installation is completed. Ernie

Cork is a great product. In fact, Bluebird used a layer sandwiched in between their layers of plywood on the coach floor. I have installed cork and it absorbs noise and just looks great. My FMCA number is 279052. I can't remember when I joined.

If anyone has flooring questions, slide operation questions, feel free to ask me. After 40+ years in the business, I know a little~

I will be traveling to Wisconsin in Aug to do a job, then down to Tenn. I could stop by Iowa on the way north

Add engineered wood and glue it to the floor. Will not move if you have slides

After being a member of FMCA for years, I didn't know we had a forum. I'm alive and well and can assist whenever I can. For photos go to http://ernieekbergflooring.net
