Metal Wrap on slide toppers

I have a 2016 Aspect 27K.... there is a metal wrap on the bedroom slide topper... not one on the other slide topper on the drivers side... should there be one?

We have a 2016 Aspect 30J. I wondered the same thing. There isn't a metal wrap on the driver's side slide...on the passenger side bedroom slide only due to the awning. So, your Aspect is fine!

We've had ours for almost three years. 4th RV. Downsized from 42' fifth wheel. Our Aspect is my favorite. Just love it! Bought it with 4k miles and we've put close to 15k on it. Surprised me that not in production anymore. Feel free to ask any questions! Enjoy!!

Thanks for all your replies...I have a question regarding the Rear Air Springs...the original owner did not have any pressure in them... I've read not to exceed 80psi...try to keep pressure the same for both sides...measure wheel well to ground on each side... do you have these on your coach? Any thoughts about how much pressure is normal?
Thanks for your help!!!

I'll ask my husband but pretty sure he runs 60 psi in each. Depends on how much we are towing in our trailer. Will ask him when he gets home! Makes a big difference.

On a different note, make sure to tighten all windows before driving. We have the frameless windows and had one vent portion blow off going down the highway. I always double check tightness now!

So, hubby said he runs 50-65 depending on what we're hauling. Sometimes two bikes and a razr. Sometimes just one road bike. Hope that helps.

There's a great Facebook group which offers tons of help, suggestions, etc just for Aspect/Cambria owners. I highly recommend it: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1834086740146355/

The bedroom slide topper is manufactured by Carefree. The other two are not. Not sure why Winnebago did that. Air bags should always have a minimum of 5 PSI and max of 100 PSI. Adjust to you needs and ride quality. Good luck

Quick question... what is the size of the socket used to remove the drain plug on the water heater? don't know if there are different sizes.... we have a 2016 aspect 27k.. perhaps I overlooked it in one of the manuals.

Thanks & hope all is well.

We have a 2019 22m with airlift airbags installed and do not tow. 35 psi firms up the back end and makes the coach level. It also helps with gusting wind and big trucks flying by as I drive 60-65

It could be due to the awning slides over it on the passenger side. Our 2015 27k is just like that.

We have a 2019 22m with airlift and I installed 2 bubble levels in the rear storage near the air fills so I can level the loaded coach front to back and side to side. Normally run 35 psi to level it so headlights are not shining in the sky with the E350 chassis

Just a reminder folks.... when you have new questions please start a new thread.

Putting questions about bike racks (now moved) and windows and air bags in a thread about Slide Topper Covers just gets those question lost to everyone but the few reading the thread.

It's painless and easy to start a new thread and it helps you, your fellow members and future members and visitors that come looking for answers about specific topics that are totally unrelated to the original question in the thread.

Thanks for the help.

It is acceptable, just not best practice.

My comment was simply an attempt to help, not to chastise. Sorry, if it felt otherwise.
