separating slideout movement
We are looking at a 2010 31BH2B..we really like the floorplan. It has 3 slides..all operated by a single switch. Can it be retrofitted to separate the movement of the slides? Anyone done it or had it done? I don't want to wait 8 weeks for one from the factory....a local dealer has 3 but each has the single switch. Suggestions?

First...Welcome to the group! Glad you are here.
If you are handy at hydraulics you could install a manual or electric solenoid valve in each of the extend lines. Then you could open each by operating that line exclusively. Can be done, but not easily.
I would be surprised if the factory would do it for you. To the best of my knowledge, all the Wildcats have just one switch. If you decide to contact the factory, please let us know what they said.

Another problem I had with the 31ts. Pete @ Terrytown RV in Grand Rapids Michigan, called the factory and they told him they could do the upgraded hydraulics like on the Cedar Creek, but it would cost. For the way we use our camper, independent control is a must.

Re: separating slideout movement
Have not looked into to it,(thought about it though) but wonder if one could locate a place in the mechanism to put a pin to lock the movement of that slide? Since the hydraulic system is in parallel the fluid takes the path of least resistance and moves the easiest one first.
Just a thought
