Title: Washer dryer replacement
Post by: pikewrench on April 14, 2018, 09:24:08 pm
Did a conversion on my 88 GV 40'.  Removed the door as it stuck out 2" into the hall.  Removed the shelf above the old washer.  Lowered the floor by more than 5", just clearing the washer drain.  Made a cradle out of 3/4 angle iron to hold the suspended dryer and added a strip of walnut to hide the angle iron.  The three section that finish the front of the dryer (2.6 cf magic chef) can be easily removed to service dryer.  Washer is a 2.3 cf magic chef top loader that has a lid that folds and clears the dryer.  Personally I thought the door was a bit of over kill and wanted it more functional as I will be living out of this for months at a time for work.
