Getting a bit frustrated

I have a 1999 Cardinal 29 ft 5th wheel, The hydrolic piston that moves the living room slider is shot, Forest river has 0 ways to contact them, dealer is unable to help, I heed a replacement Ram. Anyone tell me who manufactured the Ram, or a contact number to call to maybe order one??

Might be easier/cheaper to take it to a hydraulic shop and have it rebuilt.

X2 - what is "shot" with it? Not much can go wrong with a hydraulic cylinder besides worn seals causing leakage or the housing being cracked.

Baydog, the Warranty Parts Center in Elkhart handles the Cardinal. You can reach Dan Evans, who runs that center, at (574) 206-7600, or by e-mail at devans@forestriverinc.com. It will help if you can give him the last seven digits of your VIN.
