The parts that weren't crushed seems round as if it went around a hydraulic shaft. Then yesterday when we camped, some more of the same came out from under the slide out on the other side.
I assume this is some type of protective or lubricant for the shafts but there's no way that I can see to get to them. Is this an "Oh well" moment like my wife usually says or is it cause for alarm? Thanks.
Just went through that with my Dip. Covering on steel rollers, It is caused by grit and gravel on the floor, It works its way into the soft plastic and eventually cuts it and then falls off. Fix asap, The bare rollers will crack the tile.
