replacing floor and repairing slides

Question

Is there information on how to repair a floor in a RV with slides?
the floor is soft so I am going to replace all of it with plywood rather than the chip board originally used. Now, how do I get under the slides? I also have to replace some of the corners in the slides.
I realize it will be a big project, but it needs to be done. Any help would be appreciated.

Might consider talking with someone about removing the slides.  Then repair everything, and reinstall slides.

Check utube there are several videos on replacing floors while the slides are attached. I replaced the dinning room slide floor and the bedroom slide without removing them. I plan to replace the kitchen/enterainment slide within the next month or so.
It is labor intensive but doable, I have less than $600.00 in materials for both slides and used marine plywood and roll on truck bed epoxy for waterproofing.
