slideout beam repair

Looks like you did an awesome job!! I would have liked to go that far with mine but had neither a shop or space. I did mine in the driveway at home, said the heck with the home owners association. LOL

Again nice work. You should get many more years of enjoyment out of that 5er.

The last few inches were where we had to jack it up a half inch to clear the stopper. No rollers on this just a skid pad at end of carpet. I did not touch carpet.

Thanks for the insight. Mine has three rollers in the floor under the slide, and can be moved pretty easily by hand but if you push it the cable gets to much slake and jumps out of the worm gear. I had a lovely afternoon rolling around in the weeds to repair my "field expedient" for getting the slide to come in quickly :(

We like ours too but it is starting to show its age. We mostly use it as a summer cabin now, I have gutted the slide and bedroom and added non-RV tables, chairs, and beds.

Have fun and enjoy your better than new 5er,

Bob

thanks you guys! It was fun and learning experience doing this repair. I only use the fiver few weeks a year so it was well worth the trouble doing job and not upgrading or costing money. As I said the remainder of fiver is great condition and I have the means to fix anything if needed
