Need Help on Seals

[robertwoytek]

Thanks for the invite. My main concern right now is, I’m living full time in my 2008 Heartland Bighorn 3400RE and recently started having issues with rain coming in and around my slide outs. I’ve been searching for the seals that encapsulates the slide outs. My question is, are there specific venders you use to order those seals or list or part numbers? Any amount of info you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Robert

Try Seals : AP Products, RV/Mobile Home Hardware Amazon sells seals also, you just need to know the seal and size you need

I also have a 2008 Bighorn that I fulltime in. I measured the slide seals, and even bought longer flap ones. The best prices I found on the internet were for AP brand seals through a vendor on Walmart.com The other big surprise was that I ordered the seals on a weekday afternoon, was at a park in a fairly remote area East of San Diego in the mountains, and had the seals delivered the next day at noon (with no expedited delivery).

I bought these 2 items:

https://www.walmart.com/ip/AP-Produ...V-Slide-Out-System-with-2-7-8-Wiper/135387895

https://www.walmart.com/ip/AP-Products-1-x-15-16-x-35-Premium-D-Seal-RV-Slide-Out-System/108086694

Be sure that when you park that your side-to-side levelling is spot on. The slide rooms are designed to lean away from the main RV body a little (and old name for slideout rooms was "tip-outs") to help rainwater sheet away from the seals areas.

ON EDIT: While I was searching my Walmart.com website account I WAS ASTOUNDED to find EVERYTHING I HAVE BOUGHT IN WALMART STORES (MAINLY FOOD ITEMS) FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS DOCUMENTED ON THE WALMART.COM WEBSITE !!!!! I don't login with Walmart.com when I checkout in the stores, but I DO use my debit card routinely. The Walmart computer system must have linked my debit card to my purchase history online.

Thanks for the quick response Bill. This info is all I need to get me started.

Thanks again.
