Quick Question

[SJH]

Do the Bighorns have hydraulic or cable bedroom slides?

 

[RoadJunkie]

Big Horn units are all hydraulic slides that can be controlled individually or as a group.

SJH, I know that my 2008 3370rl has hydraulic. I have not seen a BH with cables. Ernie

Our new 3585RL will have two hydraulic slides and one electric/cable slide.
The electric being the monster bedroom slide.

My 3385 has hydraulic slides for the front and an electric (cable) slide for the bedroom.

2009 BH3670 is all hydraulic, with selector manifold.

Thanks for the input...I was just curious! Our new BC has cables for the bedroom, something I am not very familiar with. It seems some Bighorns do and others don't! I wonder what the deciding factor for using the cables vs hydraulic in the design is. I know a cable system must be cheaper. I also think it must take up less room under the bed. Our BC has a good sized storage area under the bed...not sure this would be possible with hydraulic rails etc.

Happy Camping!

The deciding factor is the size of the slide...the extra large bedroom slide in some of the Bighorns does not allow a proper placement for the hydraulic ram, so the cabled slide is the option choosen.
