We did the same. American Furniture Warehouse had a matching gray leather recliner couch and recliner loveseat—twice as comfortable as factory, very inexpensive, fit well with a few inches to spare.
Another hint, the original and the new couch bounced forward on the road, and I rarely remembered to climb through and push it back before opening the slideout. The living room side slideout trim on the rear of the slide was just brad-nailed in, and frequently popped off during opening. After several times of repairing it, I had a great idea: I put the couch in place, pushed it back far enough to clear the slide out, marked a pencil line on the linoleum at the front of the couch support bar, then painted and screwed in two sections of 1” x 2” pine to hold it in place on the road snd during setup. Once the slideouts are open, I tip the couch over the wood guards and it is ready to recline. No worries since.
