Where Can I get Slideout Seals For My RV?
by Mick
(Las Vegas)
I have a 2000 Alfa Ideal 5th wheel & desperately need the rubber seals around both pop-outs replacing, but I can't find a dealer who stocks these items.
Does anyone have the address/web-site of whoever took over from Alfa with their spares, or are the seals a universal fitting?

ANSWER: Greetings Mick thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.
Since the manufacturer of your 5th wheel is no longer in business, I doubt very seriously if anyone can tell you where their supplies of surplus parts have gone. But I am sure that you will be able to find what you are looking for on one of the links I have provided below.
RV Slide Out Seals On eBay.
All of these seals Have Buy It Now Prices so you do not have to do any bidding.
Slideout Seals From Pelland Enterprises.
RV Slideuut Seal From RVGods Parts Store
Hopefully you have found the right seal on one of the websites listed above. I am going to assume that the reason that you are replacing the seals is because they have become cracked and dry. Once you get the new seals installed you should start treating the new seals at least every two months with Slide Out Rubber Seal Conditioner
to prevent this from happening again.
