- For your 2018 Forest River Sierra Fifth Wheel I recommend the Adco Olefin HD All-Climate + Wind RV Cover for 5th Wheel Toy Hauler - Up to 43' Long - Gray # AD89ZR.

- The channel on the # SR37FR would be approximately 1/4" too large so you'd want to go with the Rubber Bulb Seal for RV Slide Out - 1" C-Channel # SR84FR instead.

I do recommend drilling a small hole every few feet through the outer bulb and using a screw to secure the base of the bulb seal to the track once in place.
