Monaco Slide out leak

I just purchased a 2000 Monaco La Palma 36G. The last several days we have had very heavy rain and the carpet in front of my slide is now wet (the slide out is closed.) I think it is a bad seal on the bottom and I probably needs a new gasket.

Any suggestions? Is there a good supplier for the gasket material? I see places that sell 30' rolls, but If I am resealing the whole slide out, I figure I will need at least 40'.

Thanks for any advise,

Supergroomer

That would be simple with the 36G with one slide, I always level my 2 slide (same side ) and my old one slide a little out of level low on the slide side so the water will run off the slide, new gaskets will probably help but the leveling process is the most important. I was told that there are two kinds of RV slide outs they are the ones that are leaking and the ones that will be leaking, so far by leveling a little out of level to the slide side my slides have not leaked..

My new 08 leaked the first month with the slide in. Pictures show where the leak occured. The repair was to seal the top of the lap joint shown and to add more help if it still leaks was to put a bead of silicon under the slide so any water will run into the bead and drop out the bottom channel.
