Description of breakdown
Symptom:
While driving back from Boston Ma to Louisiana, we stopped at a Flying gas station in Chattanooga TN. I was filing the tank when I noticed the compartment doors on the slide out were out about 2 inches on the bottom but flush on the top. After filling, I found that the compartment was swinging freely only supported by the attachment to the front of the slide. The back of the four door compartment is supported at the rear by a 1/2 inch bolt on each corner with the top of the bolt welded to the slideout support beam. On the compartment the bolt goes through a bracket with an adjustment nut on the other side. Both bolts had broken at the weld.
Took the toad to Lowes and bought two band straps. Strapped the compartment up in place, not easy, and came home.
