Basement TV pullout

What size TV will fit in basement sidewall on pullout moryde mount?
If you have pics that would be great.
Looking to buy TV today for cyber Monday deals.

Thanks

Looking at the TV40-002 and TV40-011 mounts. Not sure what clearance is needed for the slide to clear the sidewall. Or maximum height of TV to clear the basement door.

You don't say what rig you have, but my 2010 that had the TV mount in the basement was intended to use the TV in the bedroom and the mount from it. You just took the TV and mount off the wall in the bedroom and moved it down there.

The mount slides 20". That seems to indicate that you could put a TV with a width dimension of Less than 40". However you must also take into account the recess of the wall thickness. So probably something 38" wide. You should also go back to the dealer and measure the vertical space available. You will also probably have to shim the mount away from the wall for it to extend straight out.

I have a 32 inch TV on my slide mount. My basement door is small so by the time I slide it out I don't have much more room to turn it. If you have a bigger basement area you might be able to get a bigger TV on it. I used 2x3's to shim it out so the slide will clear. I painted them black.
If this isn't big enough I get out my 130 inch screen out and fire up the projector for night football or some WWE.

Thanks. Yeah looks like 32” might be it. Definitely worried about the height of the opening more than squeezing a 40” (would have to be pretty narrow)

My basement door is very small. It is only 17 inches wide by 29 inches tall. TV is only 20 inches tall by 31 wide. If I had a bigger door I could probably put a 40 in it. But by the time I pull the TV out I got just a little room to turn it before it hits the door. If you have a big door you can probably put in a bigger one. I already had my 32 and a heavy46 inch lcd TV. The big one was a no go do I put in my 32.

They fixed the issue of it leaking by getting rid of it.

That may be their story but I'm betting the REAL reason is lower cost to them. I haven't had a problem with leaking.

We had the leaking in the outside Tv compartment. Rusted out all screws and metal. Can't believe the Tv survived. I don't know what the issue was but it was repaired and no problems now. Had the camper (new) for about 5-6 months. We also have a 42" in the basement. It is not wall mounted.

WE made a wood mount that connects to both sidewalls. Wrapped it in a carpet that matches the sidewalls. Installed a drop down TV mount centered in the basement opening. Looks like It came from the factory.
Stupid things like it not being centered in the opening irritate me
We fold the TV up when travelling , still have tons of space for storage and easy access.
