Kwikee Slide-Out Parts for 2006 Itasca Spirit 31

[Doug Crossen]

I have a 31, 2006 class c motorhome, Itasca spirit. The rear slide out assembly is no longer operating. The tube that contains the internal nut is stripped. This nut is what allows the tube to ride the threaded rod, extending and retracting the slide out. The kwikee assembly is part number 142598. I am looking for the tube, or the nut, or the entire assembly. I'm thinking these are no longer available so I'm wondering what my options are......has any one else had this issue? Even if I had to go to a machine shop to get this fixed, I am looking for drawings, dimensions..... anything to help them build a new tube and nut.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Doug!

If new is not possible, I might try going to salvage yards who do RV salvage. It may be a tough ,slow search but if it works, that seems reasonable.
In my expereience , which is getting pretty old, they had networks of dealers who could put otut the word on what they needed and let other dealers around the world check in if they had that specific part. Much like the car/truck dealers do?
I get this in a quick search?
