Hi everyone,
We have a Grand Design Reflection 337RLS with a bed slide-out, and we’re looking to replace the current bed support with something lower that allows for better air circulation along the hitch side slide out wall and closet. Our plan is to remove the existing wooden bed support and replace it with this Amazon bed frame (10-inch high version).
Since there is an 8-inch step up from the bedroom floor to the RV floor, we are considering not attaching the legs on the headboard side of the new frame. Instead, we’d use boards from the hardware store to make up the 2-inch difference and have the head of the bed rest on the slide-out platform itself.
Our main concern:
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Edited to add clarification on what we need the circulation for.

Our main concern:
- Will placing the bed frame this way impact the functionality of the slide-out?
- Has anyone here done something similar or have experience with modifying the bed support in a slide-out?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
