I have a factory 6 forward facing rv troopy but I would like to also fit in the rear some seats that run along the side of the rig. Just so when were wheeling we dont have to have one of the lil ones squeezed in the front with us.
I am sure I have seen this before, does anyone know if there was factory rear bench style seats for the 6seater rv troopies?

I am a bit confused with what you're asking. Are you after a bench seat so you have 6 forward facing seats OR the side-ways facing seats out of the 11 seaters?
If you have 6 forward facing seats, it's possible you won't have the mounting holes for the side-facing seats. You would have to check.
If you have the 11 seater, you probably won't have the mounting holes for the 3seater forward facing bench.
I would say that the forward facing seats would be safer for wheeling. I've got 11 seats and when you have both people and gear in the back, it could get ugly in an accident or roll over.

Ive already got the 6 forward facing seats, I was wondering if there were some seats that can also fit in the back (behind the forwards facing seats) that run along the side like the 11 seater style. Years ago I had a ride in a troopy that was set up this way but im starting to think that it was specifically modified that way by someone. So itll be 6 forwards facing and 2 side facing down one side.

go see if you have the bolt holes for the seat-belts and seats etc. Even if it was possible from the factory as an option your car may not have the mountings necessary.
If not then you may need to get them engineered if you wish to register it as a more than six seater.
