Recommended Lippert Slide Topper for RV Slide Measuring 161 Inches Wide
Question:
The slide on my RV measures 161 inches in width. What length slide topper is recommended?
asked by: D G
Helpful Expert Reply:
To keep leaves, twigs and other debris off the top of your slide where they can cause damage to the seals, a slide topper is definitely the way to go. For your 161 inch long slide out, Lippert recommends going with their # LCV000168110 Solera Slide Topper, which measures 163 inches, and is recommended for slides measuring between 158-163 inches in length.
The # LCV000165061 you'd looked at is recommended for slides from 146-151 inches in length, and wouldn't provide adequate coverage.
If you click the provided link, you can view a typical installation of the slide I recommended.
