Lippert Components 8,000 lb Capacity 2.00" Bore / 15.00" Stroke Lippert 3728923 Hydraulic Slide-Out Cylinder Body -- 8K, 2" Bore, 15" Stroke

When your hydraulic slide-out cylinder is leaking, bent, or simply worn out, this OEM-spec replacement cylinder body from Lippert Components gets your slide room moving again without replacing the entire slide-out assembly. The 3728923 is a heavy-duty 8,000 lb capacity cylinder body designed for use in Lippert HydraSlide and Power Gear hydraulic slide-out systems commonly found in Class A motorhomes, fifth wheels, and large travel trailers. At a 2.00-inch bore and 15.00-inch stroke, this is a direct-replacement cylinder body for mid-range to full-extension hydraulic slide rooms.

OEM-Grade Hydraulic Cylinder Body for Lippert Slide-Out Systems

Lippert Components is the dominant OEM supplier of hydraulic slide-out systems in the RV industry, and the 3728923 cylinder body is built to the same standards as the unit that came in your rig from the factory. This is the cylinder body only -- the core structural and pressure-containment component of the hydraulic jack assembly. It is machined to accept standard Lippert seals and end fittings, making it a practical rebuild or direct-swap option for service technicians and advanced DIYers.

The 2.00-inch bore diameter and 15.00-inch stroke length place this cylinder in the mid-travel range for Lippert slide-out applications. It is most commonly found on slide rooms in the 6-foot to 10-foot width range where full extension requires a longer stroke. The 8,000 lb working load capacity handles even fully furnished slide rooms with hardwood floors, theater seating, and kitchen islands.

8,000 lb Working Capacity

Engineered for heavily loaded slide rooms. Handles theater seating, full kitchens, and hardwood flooring without straining the hydraulic circuit.

2.00-Inch Bore Precision

Honed to close tolerance for consistent seal contact. Compatible with standard Lippert replacement seal kits for the 2-inch bore family.

15.00-Inch Stroke

Provides the travel needed for mid-depth to full-extension slide rooms. Verify your existing cylinder stroke before ordering to confirm fitment.

OEM Lippert Part

Manufactured to Lippert HydraSlide and Power Gear specs. Eliminates guesswork on thread patterns, port locations, and end cap compatibility.

Where This Cylinder Fits in the Lippert Lineup

Lippert produces hydraulic slide-out cylinders in several bore sizes -- most commonly 1.50-inch, 1.75-inch, 2.00-inch, and 2.50-inch -- to match the load and travel requirements of different slide room configurations. The 2.00-inch bore is the workhorse of the lineup, used extensively in Class A gas and diesel motorhomes as well as heavy fifth wheels from manufacturers including Forest River, Coachmen, Heartland, Keystone, and Thor Motor Coach.

The 15.00-inch stroke (part 3728923) is one of the longer strokes in the 2-inch bore family. Shorter-stroke siblings include the 10-inch and 12-inch stroke variants. If you are unsure of your current stroke length, fully retract the slide room and measure from the face of the cylinder body to the fully retracted rod end -- that measurement is your stroke.

Direct Replacement Guidance: This cylinder body is intended to replace a failed or damaged unit with matching bore and stroke. If the existing cylinder seals have failed but the body tube is undamaged, a seal kit rebuild may be a more economical option. Use this body when the tube is scored, dented, bent, or corroded beyond seal-kit repair.

Hydraulic System Compatibility

The 3728923 is designed for use within Lippert HydraSlide and legacy Power Gear hydraulic slide-out systems. These systems use a dedicated hydraulic pump (typically 12V DC), a fluid reservoir, directional control valves, and hydraulic lines connecting to the slide cylinder(s). This cylinder body accepts standard SAE O-ring boss (ORB) or straight-thread hydraulic fittings at the port locations, consistent with Lippert hydraulic plumbing practice.

This is NOT compatible with electric-over-hydraulic Schwintek in-wall slide systems or rack-and-pinion electric slide systems. It is specifically for dedicated hydraulic cylinder-type slide-out mechanisms where a physical cylinder rod pushes and pulls the slide room.

Fluid Compatibility: Lippert hydraulic slide systems are designed to run on standard AW-32 or AW-46 hydraulic fluid, or Dexron III ATF where specified by the coach manufacturer. Do not use brake fluid or power steering fluid. Inspect and replace hydraulic fluid any time a cylinder seal failure has occurred, as metal contamination may be present.

Installation Considerations

Replacing a hydraulic slide cylinder body is an intermediate-to-advanced service task. The slide room must be fully supported independently before the cylinder is disconnected -- never rely on hydraulic pressure to hold a slide room while working underneath or behind it. Hydraulic lines must be capped immediately upon disconnection to prevent fluid loss and contamination.

  • Support the slide room fully with appropriate blocking or a slide room support system before beginning work
  • Depressurize the hydraulic system by cycling the slide control after blocking
  • Cap all hydraulic lines immediately upon disconnection to prevent contamination
  • Transfer all end fittings, rod hardware, and mounting brackets from the old cylinder to the new body
  • Bleed the hydraulic system after installation to remove air from the lines
  • Cycle the slide room multiple times and check all connections for leaks before returning the coach to service
Maintenance Tip: After installation, inspect the hydraulic fluid level and condition. Contaminated or discolored fluid should be drained and replaced. Check all slide cylinder mounting points and pivot brackets for wear or elongated bolt holes -- worn mounting hardware accelerates cylinder seal failure and should be addressed at the same service interval.
Related Lippert Parts: When replacing this cylinder body, also inspect Lippert hydraulic pump assemblies, directional control valves, hydraulic hose assemblies, and cylinder seal kits. Replacing seals and lines at the same time as the cylinder body prevents repeat service calls and protects the new cylinder from damage caused by contaminated or low fluid.

Important Information -- Read Before Ordering and Installing
  • Verify bore and stroke before ordering: This cylinder body has a 2.00-inch bore and 15.00-inch stroke. Installing a mismatched cylinder will result in improper slide travel and potential structural damage to the slide room.
  • Cylinder body only: This listing includes the cylinder body only. The hydraulic rod, end fittings, hydraulic hose assemblies, seal kit, and mounting hardware are NOT included. Transfer components from the failed unit or source separately.
  • Slide room must be fully blocked before removal: Never allow the slide room to be supported solely by hydraulic pressure or the cylinder during service. Use rated blocking or a slide room support stand rated for the weight of the fully furnished room.
  • Hydraulic system must be depressurized: Cycle the slide control after blocking to relieve system pressure before disconnecting any hydraulic lines or fittings.
  • Not compatible with electric or Schwintek systems: This is a hydraulic cylinder body only. It does not fit or function in electric-actuated, rack-and-pinion, or Schwintek in-wall slide systems.
  • Professional installation recommended: Hydraulic slide cylinder replacement involves working under heavy loads and with pressurized hydraulic circuits. If you are not experienced with hydraulic service, use a qualified RV service technician.
  • Inspect and replace hydraulic fluid: Cylinder seal failure can contaminate the hydraulic fluid with debris. Always flush and replace the hydraulic fluid after replacing a cylinder body to protect the new seals and pump.
