Inspecting the slide cables on your RV needs to be top priority every time you run the slide in and out. The time to catch the problem is when fraying starts and not when it breaks. That being said, we were caught off guard last summer when we had our cable break. Fortunately we learned from our mistakes and saw the early signs of a cable going bad and had the time to do a repair. There are some specialty tools you will need and I have them with a link listed below. The links are purely a suggestion and you can get another brand if you have a preference…
