We recently bought a 2005 Sightseer 29R and i noticed in the owners manual that there are 2 large cranks for the large slide and a ratchet type wrench with 2 smaller bars for the rear slide should they not operate. Upon looking i see the tools in mine for the rear slide is missing (the 2 long cranks are there for the large slide) my question is can a socket with a extention be used for this or do i need to find the original ratchet and 2 bars that are missing? I have not looked at the set up under the bed where the cranks are to see if a socket will work or not, If i need the original tools where can they be bought? Thanks Dave

I just went out to my tool box in a storage bay and checked my kit.
It consists of a ratcheting head wrench and two rods with pins through. One rod has a hex head that fits a 9/16 wrench and the other end is slotted and has a 1/2 inch hole in it. The other rod has one end that fits into the first rod and one end that has a pin and 1/2 inch hole.
It looks like a tool set specific to the KwiKee slide.
A picture is below:

The pencil is to provide scale.

I would call Winnebago customer service and get the part number for the kit. I suspect they will want you to buy it through a dealer.
If you don't have one close by you the dealer there in Forest City - Lichtsinn Motors HERE - can order it and send it to you.
