I recently bought a used 1999 Coachmen Travel Trailer. It has a closet for a washer/dryer but for some reason they did not pre-equip said closet with washer/dryer hookups. I found a good deal on a washer/dryer combo that will fit nicely in this space, but need to add the hookups (hot and cold water, drain and 120volt outlet). Does anyone know of any good resources for installing these? Any tutorials, guides or suggestions?
Thanks,

Not hard to do,  but it will be hard to run everything.  You need to run 120VAC to the closet from a dedicated breaker,  then you need to tap into the water lines and install a couple of shut offs.  Then you need to find a suitable drain line like from the shower ot sink and cut into that to add a tee.  More effort than it will be worth.
 
Plus you need to install a dryer vent as well.

A "washer/dryer prep" package is not inexpensive, so lower-priced models seldom have them unless specifically ordered. Mid to upper end models may have the prep package as standard because they are often ordered with washer/dryer or the dealer upgrades it.
