    Schwintek Slide Issue - any ideas?

    So this trailer just past its 1-year warranty period (typical) and now we're starting to see issues with the slide. I've taken it to the dealer twice now and both times they can't replicate it - it works just fine for them! Here's a video showing the issue (at least in this one the slide went...

    Slide out Nightmare

    Our kitchen slide has been fine since the rig was purchased new in 2021. Now it won't extend. Rig level, no sighs of misalignment. I try to manually extend it using the hand crank. No help. Gears seem ok (not opened up to see). So I open up the belly to possible see a problem. The attached...

    MBS Tipping Slide

    We have a 2018 Sunseeker 2400 MBS with the slim rack slide. Slide suddenly started tipping inward when bringing the slide in. Slide will extend out and be within a 1/4 inch square with the motorhome top and bottom front to back. Might have to resync to get it that way. When retracting the slide...

    Screws coming out around frame to slideout- help

    Can anyone give me suggestions on how to maintain the slideout? When sliding in and out there is decent pressure and the screws to the frame are falling out. I’ll attach a picture. I don’t know how to maintain this properly and I fear it is detrimental.

    Slide seals bunching up

    Not sure what I’m doing wrong. I noticed some of the d bulb slide seals on my 2018 272 Rl were torn in the corners and coming out of the the seal track so I replaced them all this spring. The vertical seals worked out fine but the top horizontal ones on both slides seems to have expanded to the...

    How to fix leaky slide?

    How would you properly fix this leak? I'm getting a very little puddle inside our bedroom slide. 2 paper towels worth after a nights rain, so enough to be concerning, but not big. It looks to be coming in the corner molding. Poked at things on the outside & there doesn't appear to be any sealant...

    Identification of slide awning component

    The piece screwed to the side of the motorhome to the left of the awning mount appears to be part of the awning but I don't have a clue if it is or what it is supposed to do. Any thoughts?

    New to the class c and Lippert slides. Purchased a 2013 Lexington 283TS and am doing some cleanup and PM's as well.

    Replacement Slideout Interior Seal

    In the pictures, I need to replace the interior slideout seal. It is hard to see in the photo, but the lower 2 feet or so of the rubber seal is no longer attached to the metal channel. It is ripped where they meet. It appears to just slide into the metal channel (on the aft side) that is...

    2022 Sanibel 3802WB slide outs manual operation

    I’m having a lot of trouble trying to find a video or decent instructions on how to manually extend or retract the slideouts on a 2022 Sanibel 3802WB.

    Slide Gap Solution

    I saw a thread on this in the past, but no cause/ solution was ever revealed. The OP said he had the factory make an adjustment. On a 2020 I5, full-wall slide, there is a significant gap at the bottom when fully closed. The gap is more pronounced at the rear. The slide is fully closed at the...

    While re-attaching the paneling on the back of the dinette seat on my 2017 Shamrock 21ss I noticed, after pulling out the couch, there was light coming into the inside of the slide-out between the floor and the wall. Upon closer inspection there is a fairly large gap between the wall and floor...
