Three spring loaded flat fingers ride up and out of a matching set of detents in a hub when the resistance reaches a point. Then 1/3 turn further, the fingers drop back into the detents. All this is part of the driven shaft.

Sounds terrible and is of no concern, it just doing its job.

I had heard from someone else that there was a clutch but wasn’t sure since I hadn’t tore into it yet. Time to open it up and inspect it. Will be adding the access hole like you’ve done also.

Looks like the same gear they use in a number of places .

There is a vendor online ( e bay ) who has to advertise as an RV 18/1 slide drive gear replacement to avoid conflict with Lippert .

Measurements are the same , but gear is all plastic. I've replaced a couple for friends and they work fine.

WHY??? From a Customer Satisfaction point of view Lippert doesn't offer this gear for $10/15 is WAY beyond me.

I will get out there and look around.
Thanks Mark and Happy.

EDIT; I have only one slide almost full length of coach, just in case you didn't know.

Larry-

Color me red for embarassment!

I should have known from the coach model listed in your signature that your coach's bed is not on a slide. Doh!

My bedroom slide motor and clutch assembly is a Power gear part #DN14666 and is not available from LCI, does anyone have a recommendation as to where I can have it rebuilt or replaced? Living in Mesa this winter.

Thanks for the update. Did you purchase and try it out?

Captjake1 · 12-02-2019, 10:24 PM

Ok. That's it! I am going to stop reading this forum!
Guess what broke this morning? On moving day! Yup!
ARRRGG..
At least there is this fine forum and their members to help me through!

I feel your pain. Happened to me more'n once - I'd read about someone's issue on here, and I'd go out to look and darned if mine isn't broken too!

Hope you get it solved... quickly.

I have obtained various slide-out, landing gear, gears from this company. Call them they are very helpful. The gear box might have come from them.
