"What kind of typical life cycle are you all seeing in the following list of items?"
My coach is 20 years old. I have replaced air springs, brake chambers, radiator hoses and the engine belt. None were replaced due to poor condition or failure, but replaced as preventative maintenance. I have repaired a heater hose that failed due to chafing.
I have never heard of any one replacing window seals or slide seals due to age & mine are original.
I do inspect hosing annually as part of my preventative maintenance procedure.
