Does anybody know where I can find slide out rollers for a 1998 Gulfstream TourMaster? I put it in the shop the beginning of May and they tell me they are having a hard time finding the rollers. They said they can't even get them from the Gulfstream company. It would be helpful also if someone know the brand of the slide out that is in there? All I know is that it's a hydralic slide out.

Raspy71,

Welcome to the forum! What 'rollers' are you referring to on the TM living room slide? On my 2007 TM-40C there are no rollers under the room, just a strip of UHMW plastic. There is also a similar UHMW plastic guide block on one upper corner of the slide room opening and a small ball roller on the opposite corner. Perhaps there was a substantial design difference in the earlier model years, and maybe other members here can chime in with specific knowledge...

The later TM coaches used Power Gear slide room components, but it is possible that earlier ones used something else -- again owners of earlier coaches may see this post and provide the missing information.

Pictures would also help us try to identify your needed parts.

I looked on the Power Gear website and couldn't find what I needed. The rollers are about 8 inches long and black. I wish I had a picture of them but right now it's in the shop 200 miles away. The RV repair people are having a hard time finding them also. I posted this message to see if it would help in finding me some. Thank you for you're reply.

I'm not sure of the diameter? I'll try and get a hold of the company that is suppose to be repairing it and get all that info. They don't seem to be the best people to fix it but are the only people within 200 miles.

Two years had already passed since the topic here was posted and I do apologize for the very late post here. Any updates for this? The topic here caught my attention. Anyway, slide out rollers are really difficult to find in some places. They'll often tell you that it is already face out. I think it would be much better if you will go to Gulfstream parts dealer or a auto shop that you think can help and you may find better truck parts and accessories there. thanks
