I am in the process of building a toterhome on a Kenworth W900B chassis. The box will be 12 feet in length. I want to install a slide that will accomodate a 78 inch sleeper sofa.I have discovered there are many different type slides....above the floor,under the floor,level floor etc etc. Some are electric screwdriven,others are Hydraulic.I have completed the hitches and the truck bed. I am ready to start building the box.The floor will be 2"X4" 11ga steel tubing. Any suggestions on the best type slide for this aplication would be greatly appreciated. MMM

Surely someone out there has installed a slide and could give me some lessons learned! Any input would be greatly appreciated. I really hate re-do's ! Thanks in advance for your input.
