We did what?! If you've been following along on our social media, you know we've been "under construction" for a bit! After living in our Grand Design Imagine 2600RB full-time for over two years, we decided to make some changes. We are by no means construction experts, but in this video we walk you through how we removed our Thomas Payne recliners and our dinette. Stay tuned for our upcoming video, where we show you what we put in their place!

I can’t thank you enough for your video on how to remove that theater seating ! my mom is getting a recliner lift chair so we need to remove that and now we know exactly how to do it! Thank you thank you thank you!

[@lifererouted]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad it was helpful to you - that's our goal! Good luck with the removal, let us know how it goes 😊

[@chipper1112]

@5:55 Hahaha love the Step Brothers reference 'so much room for activities now'

[@lifererouted]

😅😅

[@KyleeMoran]

After 6 videos finally found the one I need!

[@lifererouted]

Good to hear!

[@dangerzone6481]

I like how honest you are cause I'm gonna be an amateur too when my wife and I get our RV lol we will learn together

[@lifererouted]

😂😂😂 We're ALWAYS learning, Brandon. What rig are ya'll looking at?

[@faze_buendia9514]

Great job!! You guys are hilarious, can't wait to watch more of your videos!

[@lifererouted]

Thank you so much! Welcome aboard!

[@HappilyEverHanks]

Can’t wait to see part 2! We were thinking of renovating the back of our 5th wheel someday. Seems like a good amount of work. “So much room for activities” 🤣 love your content and energy! Much love Renee & Kyle

[@lifererouted]

Thank you guys so much, we appreciate you! It took us awhile to decide to do it - we're already glad we did! Lol we just kept saying that 🤣

[@HappilyEverHanks]

😄 absolutely!! You guys are so awesome! Thank you guys for stopping by yesterday on our premiere as well! It was super fun to have you guys there 😊

[@ConsidertheWonders]

Nicely done y’all 👍. Always fun to make improvements! Exciting to see what y’all will do with all that space 🙌🏼🤔

[@lifererouted]

Thank you! It was definitely more fun to take out than it has been to put stuff in 😅

[@HomeARoam]

Looking good! We've been wondering how difficult it is to remove a dinette. You made it look pretty simple, thanks!

[@lifererouted]

Thank you guys so much - that means a lot! We've found so much help and inspiration from this community over the years, we hope we can pass it on 😊

[@JCharlesoutdoors]

Nice work with the removal , can't wait to see what goes back it , thanks for sharing

[@lifererouted]

Thanks so much for watching! So far the removal has been easier than what's going back in 😅

[@TheTravelingLarsons]

Great video Mike and Steph! We have thought about renovating our table and couch area too, next trailer. We are jealous that you have an outlet at your table, that would be great for plugging in the laptops, for schooling and video editing. Looking forward to the reveal and to hear where you’re going next! Have a great week!

[@lifererouted]

It has taken us 2 years to decide to do it! Having the outlet in the dinette has been so nice! We plan to keep it and just move it over for the new area. Thanks so much Kurt and Jen!!

[@dustinleonard6847]

Ohh, I can’t wait to hear where you’re going next!? 🤗

[@lifererouted]

It's a surprise! 😱🤫

[@kathyhelms2207]

Yes

[@Outdoorish]

Nice! We have those Thomas Payne couches too. Can’t wait to see what you replace it with!

[@lifererouted]

We loved them but were definitely ready for a change 😁 thank you guys so much, hopefully we'll have the new stuff in soon 🤞

[@Outdoorish]

lifererouted I like how comfortable the couch is and the fact that it reclines and the fact that it has cup holders for days, but yeah it’s kinda big and brown and not very cute 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️

[@lifererouted]

Yes! I'm no decorator by any means but I think changing them out is going to make it feel a lot more like a home 🥰 but we will miss those cup holders!

[@brianreilly6545]

Just the video I needed to see. Thx!

[@lifererouted]

Glad I could help!

[@tmspete7354]

Lucky for you the big guns showed up. Nice job guys.

[@lifererouted]

Thank you!

[@barbarajohnson3693]

About to take out my dinette with a plug in it too, but what to do with the wires now

[@scotthale4857]

We did our too. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@lifererouted]

Awesome Scott! How did it go? Any issues with the electric? Glad we could help a little!

[@scotthale4857]

lifererouted It went well. Electrical went well. Our son did it. I don’t like electrical. Took pictures but can’t figure out how to put into post?

[@lifererouted]

Good! You've got us there....no idea how to put pictures on here. Feel free to email them though if you want! [e-mail]

[@scotthale4857]

lifererouted PM me your email and I’ll show you. Looks similar to yours.

[@erikandkate]

So much room 😃 it's huge

[@lifererouted]

It really opened up so much room! Thanks for watching you guys 😊

[@LivingtheSilverLife]

We took our dinette too. We put in an L- shaped desk/ bar.

[@lifererouted]

That's awesome! We're still building what we're putting in, but a bar sounds AMAZING 😍

[@robin100012001]

Great video, thanks for sharing

[@lifererouted]

Thank you so much Mike!

[@BackroadsArtStudio]

Awesome video! Sherry

[@lifererouted]

Thank you! ❤

[@laura-leemurphyuta78]

Do you find that removing the original articles created any compromise to the integrity of the slide out? Do you think the articles you removed stabilized the slide out in any way.

[@lifererouted]

Good question! We haven't noticed a difference in the slide out integrity/stability at all since removing the original stuff.

[@LP-um4id]

What did you do w the dinnette? I need one

[@lifererouted]

We kept it together the best we could, but some of the wood was pulled apart. I think we're keeping it for now in case we decide to put it back in. You could try to see if anyone has theirs in the Grand Design Facebook group! There's also a group on their dedicated to parts etc. for our models.

[@chadbrooks9029]

I can’t find part 2

[@michaelallen4305]

GOOOOO BEARS

[@lifererouted]

Bear down! (Actually excited about this season after that draft 😳🤞)

[@Dickj203]

Any issues with the walls of the slide or structure issues with the slide with it removed?

[@lifererouted]

Not so far!
