Slide issue

Had slide checked for squareness, etc. then installed guardian plates on the underside. Took it this AM to have tires checked and the slide had moved out about 1/2in or less.
it is the Rear slide...RBW slide..and yes appeared to go out just a little as stated...goes in and out normally.
one more edit...just appears to go out on the bottom of slide...not top

Issues...fix...???
  • Thanks... I will check that
    Couple of questions..will it travel ok like that or not?
    Where would the lever be? I can get to motor fine, but not sure where lever would be?
    Since it stays tight at top seems like a brake kinda issue...but that is coming from me a rank novice in most things mechanical
  • RBW used 2 motor types. One type has a built in brake and has a manual brake release lever. IF that lever was jolted to unlock your slide will do what you are experiencing. One quick way to determine if you have a brake lock unlocked----- retract the room fully and release the button. If the brake is unlocked, the room will relax and move out an inch or so at the bottom. Doug
