I'm trying to prep an in wall articulating TV mount while job is under construction. I don't have the actual TV yet but have a model.
Well, the first thing you should do is avail yourself of all the detailed model information and watchouts that everybody in this forum will freely share with you by this simple method: tell us what the hell the brand and model number are.
Since we can't adjust the TV's height much after I need to find out the mounting holes locations on the TV so we can mount the recessed back box.
The only foolproof way to get this right is to have the actual TV and work from there. I've run into TVs and brackets where all the information in the world would not have made things perfect because the mounting arm sagged more than a half inch. There's no planning for that -- only seeing it and correcting. This is best done in advance of the real installation.
For some reason I think Ernie had this answer a while ago OR he was asking the question.
You probably saw a post similar to these two.
By the way, I'd still want to have the actual TV model itself, even if you could get all the wonderful LG drawings in the universe. They say measure twice, cut once. You can't measure AT ALL unless you have the actual TV.
