Slide Issue

I always had this issue so I always thought it was how the slide sounds.

1) The slide seals and there is no water leak
2) When I half open the slide and measure from wall to end. the difference is 1/4 inch more on the rubbing side.


Issue. THe cyclinder when it retracts or extends rubs on the brackets that have the holes in the frame . SO you get the loud metal on metal noise half way in and out.

Online I only see seal adjustment or vertical/horizontal adjustment
but never one of these . If I do the horizontal will it help. I am going to try it a few minutes and then see. I do not think so it really does not move the cylinder or bracket. THe braket has no nuts but a round head.


I could make a video if it helps.
  • If yours is a Lippert electric slideout, you just need to google it, adding adjustment to the search. It should adjust side to side, if that's what you are needing.

  • I saw a fix on how to adjust sides so they slide even but could not find it..It is on one of these forums keep digging..Sorry I couldn't find it
