have you noticed any sagging of the slider tube? a few reviewers on amazon mentioned the tube sagging. 
Thanks!

We haven't yet- but it has only been a few months. I didn't see that the tube was even offered on amazon. We bought ours directly from DWinc. http://www.dwincorp.com/product/super-slider-adjustable-super-tube/

The tube is adjustable!

I'm pretty sure I bought the shortest one. It just fits the entire RhinoFLEX 15' kit.

Buy the longer 53/100 inch tube. The overlap will prevent sag. Mount it crosswise and attach to the frame members with #12 or #14 stainless steel hex head sheet metal screws. The 15' Rhinoflex hose and fittings fit comfortably.

I mounted mine next to the grey water discharge towards the rear.  Next to that, just before the trailer hitch, I mounted the spare tire carrier to make space for the bike carrier.
