Slide needs adjusting

Question

Has anyone ever had to adjust the slide on a tt? With the slide out and being on the inside of the trailer we have about an 1" difference at the top. What I mean is if you measure the wall to the slide it's about an 1" more at the top than it is about the bottom. It's a used tt our son picked up so just trying to help him get it redone.
Thanks for the input.

Maybe something HERE will help.Many different slideouts......cable, electric, hydraulic, in wall/thru frame etc.

You need to figure out which brand and type of slide out you have.

In wall? hydraulic ? Electric ? which manufacturer (of the mechanism not the coach)

Once you find out, Youtube can be very helpful. It was for us.

You might post a picture, I'm not sure if I understand your description of the problem. Or at least a model number.

Some slides are completely adjustable, some are partially, and I have one right now that isn't adjustable. To change how it closed would require relocating the bolts holding it.

If you mean the top edge sticks in 1 inch further than the bottom when fully retracted
I think you will find its made that way
Go outside and look at it closely
Are the top and bottom flush with exterior wall of the TT, so it doesn't leak when closed
Or does the bottom stick out 1 inch
Or is the to edge bent out letting the top set further in?
