Review on Protect Your RV, Travel Trailer, 5Th Wheel Or Motorhome With Solera Slide Topper Slide-Out Protection by Troy Gerhardt

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Solo Install, well yes.

I ordered this for our Keystone Bullet. The slide bakes in the heat, so we wanted a cover mainly for that, but also deflecting debris and such. I installed this 100% solo, but I did cheat: I have a scissor lift. This made is much easier for all aspects of the install. The last part was to slide the bead into the channel. I merely laid the awning on top of the scissor lift at the end of the cannel, fed the bead in, then drove the lift toward the track. Getting the hex bars into place was interesting, ended up using a crescent wrench to provide enough torque to it to have it align into the supports. After, tapping it into place with a plastic hammer.
