   The title is “How to complete a slide room cable replacement”. I must have missed something. Is there additional parts to this video. While I don’t own a RV that uses a cable system,(I have a 2003 Newmar with a sort of rack and pinion drive system) I was curious about how it would be done on a cable system like this.
