I don't see any photos anywhere. Even went to your profile page and couldn't open any.
Could you post some here? I've done an internet search for RV slideout mechanisms before and came up with a few. Lippert is one that comes to mind. Liftco is another.

My rig has a Liftco slide. I'm happy with it. I did have a failure but attribute that to the builder using the wrong bolts in a critical part. Talking to Liftco they were very helpful and I was able to fix it and make it better. I give their customer service a "A" rating for that. My slide uses long threaded rod and a electric motor to move. I think I like that better than a hydraulic fluid type.

This is what I am think ? Input please.



So its a COE with a 20' box and a car on a lift and a 20' boat.

The the car on the back would be a Polaris RZR . She will ride on a lift to be able to clear my boat trailer. The RZR is 50" x 102". Cool, just fits. +- Hope I can get my wife to let me build it ?

We're using Liftco components as well. They have several options, each with advantages and disadvantages. The guys on the phone are awesome, the installation documentation not so much.... after you do the first one the rest will be easy!

Looks nice! I'm on the road right now but if you'd like pics of the two styles of liftco slides we're using I can send them to you and perhaps answer installation questions.
