Move Couch to the Rear of our Pinncle, getting it ready to move

On our Pinnacle our TV is in the rear ODS Slide so when sitting in the recliners in the rear you look at the TV from the side.
The couch was across from the TV in the Slide with the Dining Table, so we got rid of our Recliners that were in the rear and moved our couch from the slide to the back.
Then we bought a Lane Theater seating unit and put it in the slide facing the TV.

Had a few people ask how we get the slides in with the couch in the rear

Also in the some of the pictures of the bottom of the couch, you will see I added blocks to the bottom just in front of the front feet, this was to stop the couch from tipping forward when getting up from it.

This is how we setup the couch for travel, been doing it for about 10k miles with no problems.

Added Blocks to folding bed frame for support when couch is on its back.
(We found after a few moves the frame hinges were bending and breaking from the bouncing)
