Slide room HWH rebuild C-clip went a-flying
#1

While rebuilding the slide room HWH block the c-clip that holds the bottom o-ring in place went flying in my building and I’m not finding it. Is this something I can get at local hardware store? I may head to the house and get my big magnet bar for cleaning up nails to help find it if not… of course this was the last clip I was installing and will have to tear apart the other block to match it :-(

I found it!!! Lesson learned build a fort around the work area so it can’t fly 10 feet away under the coach!!!
Got the final c-clip installed and it’s all good now.  Created a temp set of walls from some foam I had laying around just in case the oring went flying again…

That’s where I ordered the orings like the other thread showed but the part numbers were different on the packaging
McMaster Carr numbers:
9452K88 - MC124N70
9452K34 - 214
1161N58 - 4-212

The O-Ring Store: UL125-0.875-125 Polyurethane seal

The first number is McMaster's catalog number the second number would be the manufacturer's number which could be different depending on who supplied the last batch of o-rings of that particular size. If the size is correct you're golden.

Yes everything fit fine and am ready to hang it up. I did notice that the hose seems to pull up short but not sure how - we welded the bracket exactly where it used to be… so may have to extend it an inch or so…
