I usually wait to lube ours until they get a bit jumpy when moving. Lubing them smooths it out. Keystone Service Center said to lube them. But Lippert build them, so who knows. I don't know who is right. I just play it by ear and if they get jumpy they get lubed. Seems to me anything with metal to metal contact during movement ought to be lubed somehow.

are those guys fulltimers in the salt and nooks and crannies

Pugtracker, I'm not sure what you're asking. Sorry. If you mean are the Keystone people fulltimers, I doubt it but don't really know. They do know what works with their products and what doesn't, though, since they see the results. If you mean are we fulltimers, the answer is yes. If you meant something else, please clarify for me and I'll try to answer if I can.

sorry for confusion, As fulltimers we use our rigs everyday travel more often and see more salt, sand, rocks, mud etc..... so I am always cleaning under my slides. I had both shims on the shaft on my large slide wear through on the gears so i had a loser of an r/v repair guy replce them as the the slide went out of line. Of course he did a piss poor job lining it up. I have made my own adustments.
Anyway now im a little paranod to keep them nice and slick to slide in and out.
So my point is that they say do nothing is bad advice. over lube is better. That nylon piece inside that it slides on is a big dirt collector.It seems toe that the weight of the slide goes along this nylon strip so i always give it a cleaning amd a spray.
We have been doing this for three years now and a friend of mine turn me on to this site. This now my go to for advice.
Thanks
