Hi Art, and Hyall.

First, Art, drop me a note if you are ever back in the Glacier area. That is where I grew up and I know that area well.

My T-41D has a bedroom slide that moves the closet out. This model is the only one that had 2 slides instead of 3. The bed is Queen size, and faces forward, i.e. you can look out the windshield while sitting up in bed.

The seal around the slide let in air and water during brisk winds. I had to have the entire outer rubber flaps replaced, and the top two corners glued with the top overlapping the sides.

While everything was open, I ran a strip of heavy-duty foam w/foil backing around the slide, only 2" wide as any more shows when the slide is out.

My advice is to have someone with RV knowledge evaluate a way to seal the area. If you are under warranty, have the dealer do this.

Otherwise, one day you'll find water on your floor during a driving rain. That is not the time to fix this problem.
