Thanks for the replies. this was an issue when I bought it used a few months ago and I assumed it was just something easy. There is nothing obvious in that area as an obstruction. The dinette in in that area and it collapses down. I have ensured nothing is in the way. I take it down slow and feel around / push in the tent material as well. I have had 2 other popups in the past so they are not new to me. When it gets around 1" left, it is done. no movement.
anyone know how to take that apart? There are 3 pieces of square tubing inside of each other that raise and lower together.
thx!
