Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Slide support


 

We are in the process of purchasing our new rig and will be stationary for the next year. I have seen other RVs in the park that have jacks supporting their slides. Is it necessary to add that support?

Only if the RV has a faulty design system that causes them to sag....

We've been primarily "static" for almost two years now and have not seen a need for any additional support.  However, as Gene commented, it will depend on the RV and its design.

Thanks Gene and Terry.

I didn't think it was necessary, but wondered after I saw a few set up that way.

Thanks for the response.

Dave

Some mfrgs even state do not use supports/jacks under slides.
