Good to hear from you! Here is a thread with 3 different links that will likely have what you need (with a bit of poking around the sites).

2 of my fender skirts on my 2016 21BHS are broken. Has anyone had to replace any and if so where did source them? Thanks.

When I was working on my camper after our recent coast to coast trip I also lubed the rollers as well.  Figured it wouldn't hurt.

Thanks.  I did the tracks (top and bottom on both sides) as shown in the MyRVWorks video.  I also did the "gibs" and couplers as shown in the early Schwintek video. I did the gibs (top and bottom both sides, and inside and out).  I did the couplers (both sides, inside and out, top only since there isn't one at the bottom).  The diagram at https://lci-support-doc.s3.amazonaws.com/assemblies/slideouts/ccd-0002715.pdf shows the gib and the coupler.  It was hard to do any lubricating from the inside.

While peeling back the flaps to do the lube, I discovered more dead stinkbugs from a trip that I took three years ago.  Those guys got everywhere!

Thanks.  I've ordered the lube as well.  Do you just lube the gib (as in the Schwintek video)?  Or do you also lube the track and ceramic wheel (as in the MyRVWorks video)? 

Thanks. I ordered the lube and will do that when it arrives. Good info.

That is true, but in the Schwintek video stating not to lubricate, they mention how the system has been redesigned and several metallic components were changed to composite.  I don't believe those changes were early enough to make it into any Camplites.  Also, the deleted video described the lubrication procedure as maintenance; not noise reduction.  I remember that video well as it was the one I used to learn how to lubricate the slide in my 2013 21BHS.  I use the CRC teflon spray shown in the video (and also in the deleted Lippert video) and my slide has worked great for 11 years now.
