| So the slide hardware arrived from Amazon.ca yesterday. They do look very similar to the one in the photo by Piperguy. The primary difference being that the width is not predetermined. It can be as little at 8 inches and as wide as 72". The other difference is that the slides themselves are only 42" long. I would guess 25lbs each do the weight isn't to bad. Now in studying them and mocking it up I will make the 3/8" marine ply 46" long by whatever the width will be on each side. Giving me a slide thats 46" long on each side and minimal dead space in the middle. I am also going to cover the ply with indoor outdoor carpet. The trim kit is not required unless you need an end cap and I would use puck board or wood rather than pay for a trim kit. Lastly for anyone in Canada or Americans with a Canadian shipping address the price has gone down even further on amazon.ca. At 114$ each and the plywood and carpet you can do the entire thing for less than $300 CDN or $200 US. For that price my back will be grateful. | |||||

| I did! I bought 2 yesterday and made sure they shipped before I posted this. They will be here in the morning via FedEx. The trim kit is almost 3 times the price of the slide. Thats why I said I will just figure out a way to make my own. I just wanted to pass on what I think is a crazy good deal. Paul will tell you I'm a crazy deal hunter on internet. Hope to see my unit soon! | |||||

| John, buy them quick. I think that is a pricing error. They have 54" on Amazon.com and they are $376 US funds and the 60" are $445. That price is a steal. | |||||

| That's my thought. Since they are 2 separate slides I can put one 42" on one side and one 42" on the other side. | |||||

| The curbside cargo is approximately 4' wide & the opposite side is only about 20" so your tray probably won't go side to side. Piperguy should chime in & he did an awesome mod with a MorRyde tray. | |||||

| water leak in basement | 6 Relevance | 9 years ago | Jim | General Exterior | |
| Same problem once...I'll be changing those seals out as well. For now, I bent the door closure strikes to make the door fit tighter to the seal. Has not leaked since, but won't last long. Need to do this right with some better seals. I also had water under the refrigerator and I could not figure out where that was coming from for a long time until I also had "milk" in the bottom drawer...Then discovered that water bottles (or milk jugs) on their side were slightly leaking. That water would leak out the bottom of the refrigerator door and into the bottom tray. It took a while to figure that one out. I kept thinking it was from rain and it was coming through the Refrigerator vent. Whew! What a relieve to find out it was just us being stupid...Don't put bottles on their side :angry: | |||||

| That seems to be an issue when directly uploaded pictures taking on an i-device in landscape mode. There is a new update to the forum software which I want to apply and am hoping it will resolve this and a couple of other nagging issues, but as you may have noticed the updated failed miserably a few days ago so I'm proceeding with caution trying to figure out why. Try portrait mode pictures from the iPad and you may have better results. | |||||

| Ken - sorry to go off topic but a quick question. I've been looking at the Wilson Engineering We Boost cell antenna. What do you use ? | |||||

| I can also store the pole for my cell booster antenna and some pieces of ply wood on either side without interfering with the slide operation. | |||||

| Yes, fishing rods, flags and poles, spare plumbing runs, and anything long, and less than 3" high | |||||
