I have an '08 Surf Side 29A and the front slide out rollers are squeaking badly. I can just barely see them and can't find a way to get to them to lube them with silicone .
"OneCB - Alvin" if you see this post we have the same out fit. Do you know how to access the front slide rollers? Thanks, Jim in Kanab

Jim The only thing I have been doing is using a spray can that comes with a tube. It makes the silicon go a good distance. I have not had any squeeking. I bought the last silicon at Walmart. It says on the lable it was made for slide outs.

On my Seabreeze you can open the slide about one foot, then go outside and fold the lower seal outward then spray the rollers.

Thanks for the replies. I'll try the extension tube on the can or silicone and also just opening the slide a bit to reach in there. The simple solution would have been for the manufacturer to just make an access point in the floor under the seat cushions, but noooo! These things always leave me scratching my head when you have to work on them.
