Need some input; slide does not stay put
Haven't had an issue in awhile, but got one Im hoping someone has some insight on now. My Lance 2008 981 has 1 slide, a full wall (dinette and fridge). After 100 miles of highway driving, with no rea...

My 2012 Lance 855S has a slide made by Happijac. As previously mentioned it is the friction type. I have no idea if your slide is the same as the one I have.
But here is how mine is adjusted. There are two rails under the slide, one of the rails has the drive motor and one friction adjuster. The other rail has two adjuster. The adjusters are tightened or loosened for the desired effect. Look for a 5/16" bolt head mounted on the outboard side of the rails. As Rick mentioned bring the slide in about half way, laying in the floor locate the two inside adjuster nuts (one on each rail) and tighten about 1/2 turn. Then full open the slide, go out side and get under the slide and press the seal down around the rail and locate the other adjuster ( it will be the rail that does not have the motor ), and tighten it a half turn.
I use a 1/4" drive socket set, a 12" extension, a wobble fitting, and a 5/16" socket. Hope I didn't confuse you, after proof reading this I think I'm confused. lol Maybe this will help.
Thanks. I think I see on mine the 5/16" nuts your talking about. If you don't mind I'll post a picture tonight when I get back from work, maybe take a look and see if they are the same ones your talking about? I think both yourself and Rickjo are talking about the same adjustments. I'de like to post the picture and get verification before I start fiddling around. With my luck I'll make it worse :)
