Blow out caused slide damage

[luis]

The Chinese bombs finally got me. I put off getting new tires for too long, dont make my mistake. I have a 2020 Wolf Pack and the tire blew out under the slide. I am able to make all repairs my only problem is I have power cables that feed up into the slide. These cables must have been on some swivel or something that would allow the slide to extend without binding the cable. I cant figure out what this is called or find a part number. It would be helpful if someone could look under there slide and get me a part number. I think most slides containing power appliances should have the same or similar kind of bracket. Thanks in advance

I cant help you with the wiring, but like to know specifications of tires and TT, so I can yudge if used pressure courced the blow out.

I rather think the wrong choice of TT-maker for tires with poor or no reserves courced the blowout, and by this the Cinesese tires, often used by TT-makers, for their economy reasons, gotten a bad name.

Need from TT next.
GVWR
GAWR('s) and howmany axles.
If ever weighed axle or axle-end loads.
Used pressure
Used maximum speed, you wont go over for even a minute.

Need from tires:
1. Maximum load or loadindex
2. Kind of tire to determine the maxloadpressure.
So if ST and loadrange or better pressure behind AT given on sidewall.
3. Speedcode if given.
Sizes would be nice too.

If you give that all, I will calculate a maximum pressure at wich no screws tremble loose. Then if you use that pressure, tires could make upto 10 years without blowing ( exept by punctures). TT makers give often max of tires, because used to the edges of safe, and dont include reserves.

In the link below you will find what is on my Cherokee Artic Wolf. I am not sure if this is the same part you may need. You may try and contact Cherokee Owner support and give them your vin for exact part number. E Trailer may also be able to help you per the link below.

I think Lippert (the manufacturer) calls them a Flexguard Kit.
There are single and double depending on slide depth.
There are several sources online.

Probably looks like this...

Had mine crack and break first year out, went to metal shop, had them cut me a 42 inch x 3 inch piece of stainless steel, its thin - highly flexible, used small stainless bolts and locking nuts with washers. 5 screws on top and 6 along bottom edge, been working since 2017 no issues
