Recommended Solera Slide Topper For A 71.5" Flange To Flange Measurement
Question:
My slide is 71.5inch from flange to flange. What size slide topper would you recommend?

Expert Reply:
With a 71.5" flange to flange measurement you would need the Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000165063 (black) or # LCV000163279 (white). This awning is designed to fit a 68" to 73" measurement so you'd have approximately 3-1/4" of overhang on each side. If you don't have enough clearance for this then you'll want to size down to the # LCV000231482 (black) or # LCV000163274 (white).
You'll also want to pick up some butyl tape # AL28FJ to prevent any water from leaking in through your mounting bracket screws. I've attached a short video below where I'll walk you through the installation process.
