Slide-out Seal Replacement
2013 210UDS. Exterior Slide-out seals (all four side) are falling apart, badly. The material has become gummy, then shreds and falls to ground (removal from shoes requires blade, acetone/WD40 and elbow grease - don't ask). After three weeks of emails and phone calls back and forth with slide-out manufacturer then CruiserRV, I was told to take the trailer to Camping World.
There are videos about the removal and installation; it looks tedious but not difficult.
There are hundreds of "d" seals, with and without flaps, etc (if that is in fact what these are called). Does anyone have resources for identifying then buying these seals or gaskets, or whatever?
I cannot afford to pay someone to do this labor intensive job. And I suspect I could find the seals much cheaper online vs at Camping World if I knew what to look for and where to look. Because of their current condition I'm not even sure what they are made of - I don't think rubber becomes gummy.?.
First time CruiserRV has disappointed me so they get a pass.
But the seals on my ten-year-old Arctic Fox looked brand new when I sold it – go figure.
Thanks
