The Lippert 116264 is a genuine OEM-spec 6-inch ram extension designed to increase the travel distance of compatible Lippert hydraulic slide-out rams. If your current slide ram falls just short of full extension -- or you are replacing a damaged extension -- this is the direct-fit solution for Lippert hydraulic slide systems found across a wide range of Class A motorhomes, fifth wheels, and travel trailers.
Lippert hydraulic slide-out systems rely on precisely matched ram components to deliver smooth, full extension and retraction of your slide room. When a ram extension is damaged, bent, corroded, or missing, the slide may not fully extend -- or worse, may bind or develop uneven travel. The 116264 replaces or augments the ram assembly to restore the full 6 inches of designed travel.
Because this is a genuine Lippert component, it is engineered to the same tolerances as the original hardware. Aftermarket substitutes can introduce thread mismatch, improper load ratings, or dimensional variance that compromises slide alignment over time.
OEM replacement manufactured to Lippert specifications -- no dimensional guesswork or fitment compromises.
Adds exactly 6 inches of additional ram travel to restore or achieve the designed slide-room extension distance.
Designed for use with Lippert hydraulic slide-out systems commonly found in Class A coaches and large fifth wheels.
Matches OEM mounting and thread specs for straightforward swap-out during slide ram service or rebuild.
On Lippert hydraulic slide-out systems, the ram (hydraulic cylinder rod) pushes and pulls the slide room in and out of the coach body. In many installations, an extension piece threads onto or connects to the ram rod to achieve the total travel distance required by the specific slide room geometry. If this extension is damaged or was never installed correctly, the slide room will not reach its full open position -- leaving you with reduced living space and potential seal stress at the partially open position.
The 116264 is that extension component: a 6-inch piece that, when installed, brings the ram assembly to the correct total length for compatible Lippert slide configurations.
This extension is used across a wide range of Lippert-equipped RVs, including:
Confirm your slide system is a Lippert hydraulic type (not electric motor-driven) before ordering. Electric slide systems use entirely different drive components.
Ram extension replacement is a mechanical service task typically performed with the slide room retracted and hydraulic pressure relieved from the system. The extension threads onto or connects mechanically to the existing ram rod. Proper torque and thread engagement are critical -- under-torqued connections can loosen under the significant force a hydraulic slide system generates.
