Slide Out Maintenance?
So with the electric slide out is has the 2 large corkscrews type bars which
move it out and in.

Haven't had any issues and problems. But want to correctly lubricate them
with the proper type to prevent issues.

Any suggestions?

The only lubrication is actually where the cross tube that ties those rams together is going into four rollers, that's it.

Talking about your slide out system. However, there are quite a few electric style systems; got a picture?
