What's the difference between a rear bed slide and a side dinette slide, kitchen slide or other slide.
Big difference. Side slides are powered but any rear glide I've seen has been manual. A rear glide extends out much further than any side slide and slide toppers aren't made for rear glides as they are for side slides. Rear glides are suspended and supported from the trailer ceiling, side slides aren't.
Refering to a KZ rear slide they are supported on the camper frame NOT the ceiling, ceiling are only for guiding the slide. Re the powered or not KZ had an option on theirs for power slide or manual. Mine is not powered but even if it was it is operational both ways. I can only comment on KZ rear slides and others have come up to me in parks and wished their's was as well put together.
