 Topic: Slide out maintenancePosted: 29 Jul 2014 at 8:57am |

I was inspecting the slide out of my Rpod 178 yesterday and I noticed that the rack and pinion gears on the slide out were bone dry. I was wondering if any of you use any type of lubrication on the slide out gears? If so, what kind?
Thanks in advance, Cody91

The technicians at the plant that build recommend simple silicone spray on them a few times a season whenever you are doing your usual seal maintenance.

i use some "slide lube" I bought at walmart; it's probably just silicone marketed for slides to get you(me) to buy it!!!!

Thanks for the advice guys.
I have some of this stuff laying around the house that I use on my kayaks and bicycles. I was wondering if any of this stuff will work on the slide out gears? Cody91 |
