Ok been watching the video to install the plates and didn’t see anything about taking out the Teflon plates

Yeah, I think Mike's Dynasty was built before they started installing these strips.

I have a 2007 Navigator and it doesn't have teflon plates. I'm going to be installing Guardian Plates on my two front slides soon.

[96 Wideglide]

Bill, does your Navigator have hydraulic livingroom / kitchen slides?

I'm thinking they started installing these glide plates on the FF slides at that time.

Last fall I had Guardian Plates installed on my 2007 Navigator. There were not any teflon plates although there are teflon blocks that are still installed. I had Elkhart Sales and Service install them on all 4 slides.

It’s hit and miss on the Teflon, Delton, plastic or whatever they are from, plates on the bottom of the slides. Mine is Camelot is hydraulic and came without them. I now have SS plates under my slides. I have two friends with 08 Scepters, twin to the Camelot, one with plates, one without.

My two front slides and the passenger side rear slide are all hydraulic, the remaining driver side rear slide is electric.

Maybe the worker who fabricated and installed these glide plates only worked a couple of days a week .

OK Guys, now you have me more worried than normal.

On my 05 Dynasty, at the front end of the FF slide, on the floor, not the slide, an about 4 inch piece of black plastic attached on top (I think, memory) of some white plastic with some rivets has just come loose. It is now held on by just the forward rivet and has swiveled forward out from under the slide..... the black only, not the white. I'm working from memory here, the coach is in storage.

Does this ring any bells, and what do you recommend as the fix?

On mine, that strip of black plastic is attached to the leading edge of the slide floor, and act's as a kind of a bridge for the carpet to transition over a gap, to lay flat on the tile when the slide is out.

[robertrankin]

Thanks Mike,
Next week when we have less snow, I'm going to go to storage and take a pic and see if it makes ANY sense......I'll be back.

[robertrankin]

OK Guys, so here is the Picture.

MY Black piece, now held on with one screw in the end, was screwed to the white glide below it with 3 screws.

How can I fix this? Does the slide room have to be removed to get to it?

Thanks.

I could see how it could leak oil possibly but I dont understand the fuel part - some good pics on this ebay listing - https://www.ebay.com/itm/FUEL-TRANSF...9/173687765265

The other fun thing is the upper mount point for the shock broke at the weld.. I think I got someone to weld it back..

That's the pump with the three bolts on top, 10mm heads, remove your bedroom hatch and tighten them. 2 hours would be way more than enough time to change the pump if it needs one. You can buyaa federal mogul pump for a lot less and use your bracket and fittings

Well, I wish it was that easy. My HR has a Side radiator and the bed doesnt give any motor access when raised. Only access to the starter/lift pump side of the motor is thru a small access hatch beside the bed that is not much bigger than a pillow. You can see the top mount bolt but thats about it. And I checked, they are tight/dry. So the leak isnt from the lift pump. It is coming from the other end near the Hydpump or accumulator/HP pump.
