Class A RV driver's seat

So I am a 5' 2" woman and I own and drive a 31 foot Class A. My problem is, as a "sqatty body", I almost can't reach the pedals, even with the seat all the way up. Here is my question: Is there any way of moving the whole seat forward (like unbolting it and rebolting it down closer to the pedals)? Are there maybe optional holes under the carpet so I can move it forward? I am very uncomfortable trying to reach to pedals. The chair is not too big for me, just too far away. Help!

  • As stated look and you probable will be able to move forward. My seat must have been set up for a 6 foot plus, Just had to drill and move the seat a several inches.
  • I know it's of no help to you but I have the opposite problem, I'm 6'5" and the slide comes right behind the drivers seat and I cannot move it back to a comfortable position. You would think in a 38' motor home I would have enough leg room. Not even close.
  • Most seats can be relocated, usually just 4 bolts to move. I would contact a local RV service center for an estimate.
  • Consider getting someone to make and add pedal extensions for you. Haven't seen them recently, but I know that it is none for some handicapped. For the original question, get someone to look under the chassis and floor, It might be possible to move the chair mount if there is nothing in the way under the floor.
