Slider Weight Maximum for Forest River Charleston

[rvchallenge]

We own a 2005 forest river charleston and wondering the weight max is for these sliders as we are installing a full size refrig, wood cabinets and butcher block kitchen, etc. so approx 600 lbs.. Its a 2005 400 qs with 3 sliders. Anyone have a weight est. for this 13' slider on hydraulics. Thanks

Mix and Match Battery Types?

I have to upgrade our batteries from led acid to lithium but do i also need to upgrade the chassis battery types over to lithium as well since we are upgrading our converter panel to support lithum batteries. Is so, any good engine/chassis batteries for a diesel pusher using a cat7 350 hp engine? I'm assuming I will have to update our engine batteries as well so they are both lithium so the charger can be updated? Thanks,

Moved to the Charleston sub-forum since OP is asking for model-specific information.

Unfortunately switching to Li-Ion isn't plug and play so to speak. You would to change the battery isolation manager, charge controller, if the inverter/charger isn't rated for Li-Ion then that might need changed as well. I will get with an engineer and see exactly what is all needed for the upgrade

The front hydraulic slides have a weight capacity of about 1800lbs including the weight of the slide box, furniture and other components
