Prior to purchasing our 2021 DSDP we owned a 2013 Tiffin Phaeton. Tiffin owners had their own forum call TRVN (Tiffin RV Network). Their was gentleman that posted quit a few mods. He went under the user name “ Crusingator” . If you google Crusingator RV modifications his entire file will come up. Go through the file and you will find one he did on a 2010 Allegro Bus where in modified the passenger seat to move further forward. I actually did the mod on my Phaeton and work pretty well. You will gain 2 1/2 inches more forward movement but gain several more inches in recline. The only down side was it raised the seat about 2”. If you look up his mods make note to his revision to the mod in which all hardware was revised to grade 8 steel.
Hope this helps.

The only way to move that seat forward, will be to modify the frame underneath. That wouldn't be that difficult, but once you do that, you're going to crowd the stairwell if you like turning the seat sideways when parked.
