Lippert / LCI Part No. 104851 Through-Frame Slide-Out Lippert 104851 Adjustable Plate for LCI Slide-Out System Heads

Keep your RV slide-out running true with this OEM-replacement adjustable plate designed for Lippert LCI head assemblies. Compatible with both 2 x 2 and 2.5 x 2.5 electric and hydraulic through-frame slide-out systems, this plate restores proper slide travel and alignment when the original has worn, cracked, or been damaged during operation.

The Right Plate for Your LCI Slide-Out Head Assembly

The adjustable plate is a critical component in the Lippert LCI through-frame slide-out system. It mounts to the head assembly and provides the adjustable interface that keeps the slide room synchronized and properly aligned as it travels in and out. Over time, these plates can develop wear or damage from the repetitive loading and side forces inherent in slide-out operation.

This Lippert part (manufacturer PN 104851, vendor PN 71-5524) is a direct OEM replacement. It is also cross-referenced as Keystone RV part number 145728, making it a confirmed service part for Keystone-built coaches equipped with LCI through-frame slide systems.

OEM Fitment

Direct replacement for Lippert LCI head assemblies -- no modification required for correct-application systems.

Dual System Compatibility

Fits both 2 x 2 and 2.5 x 2.5 through-frame slide-out configurations, electric or hydraulic.

Keystone Cross-Reference

Listed as Keystone RV PN 145728 -- a confirmed service replacement for Keystone coaches with LCI slide systems.

Lightweight Component

Approximately 2 lbs., making installation manageable for a single technician working under the coach.

What Is a Through-Frame Slide-Out Head Assembly?

Lippert LCI through-frame slide-out systems use a rack-and-pinion or hydraulic mechanism that runs through the frame rail of the RV. The head assembly is the mechanical interface at each end of the slide tube -- it guides the slide room, transfers drive force, and allows for adjustment to level and align the room. The adjustable plate is part of this head assembly and enables the lateral and vertical fine-tuning that keeps slide seals tight and room edges flush with the coach body.

Correct Application Check: Before ordering, confirm your slide-out system uses a Lippert LCI through-frame mechanism with a 2 x 2 or 2.5 x 2.5 tube. The head assembly type is typically visible once you access the slide mechanism from underneath or inside the bay. Cross-reference your existing head assembly part number with Lippert service documentation or the Keystone PN 145728 cross-reference if your coach is Keystone-built.

Typical Installation Notes

Replacing the adjustable plate generally involves retracting the slide room fully, accessing the head assembly at the affected end of the slide tube, removing fasteners securing the worn plate, and installing the replacement. After installation, slide alignment and adjustment should be verified and corrected as needed per Lippert LCI service procedures.

Service Tip: If the slide room has been misaligned or binding before this repair, inspect the slide tube, rack, and pinion gear for additional wear before returning the system to service. Replacing only the plate will not correct damage to upstream components.
Maintenance Reminder: After installation, lubricate the slide tube and rack with a dry PTFE or lithium-based slide lubricant. Avoid petroleum-based greases that can attract dirt and accelerate wear on LCI slide components.

Important Information
  • Verify your slide-out system is a Lippert LCI through-frame type with a 2 x 2 or 2.5 x 2.5 tube before ordering -- this plate is not a universal fit for all LCI slide systems.
  • This listing is for the adjustable plate only. The full head assembly, slide tube, rack, pinion, motor, and any mounting hardware are not included.
  • Always retract the slide room fully and disable the slide drive system before servicing head assembly components.
  • Incorrect installation or skipping post-installation alignment can result in improper sealing, premature wear, or slide room damage.
  • If you are unsure whether this is the correct part for your specific system, cross-reference Lippert PN 104851 or Keystone PN 145728 with your coach's parts list or a Lippert-authorized service center.
