Slide Out Motor Replacement Parts Needed

[fordtch8]

The slide out motor for our living room slide has been having some trouble lately so I pulled it off and tore it down. Inside the gearbox assembly there are two small bushings that support the middle idler gear which are cracked and broken.

The motor is manufactured by Power Gear and is only sold as an assembly. The part number is 524065. I hate to replace the entire thing as it costs 350 dollars.

Does anyone know where I could get some replacement bushings. The inside diameter is 7mm and the outside diameter is 11mm. Does anyone have an old motor that doesn't work that they would sell me for parts? Thanks for any help.

Walt's RV Surplus sent me a complete motor gearbox assembly (salvage) for around $100. It actually moves my slide more competently than the original. waltsrv@aol.com they are in California 909-421-1107 If you are interested... hth david

Try a bearing supplier. Motion Industries is a major supplier to industry, They should be able to get you what you need. Maybe Napa? Tractor supply?
