its a track on the bottom of the slide, there are no gears or tracks on the side of the slide out.

Mine was doing that and it because of a restriction behind the kitchen cabinets. If there is anything restricting it will slow down one side.....I would look behind the pull out as it is going in.

I'm almost certain that a 2015 R-Pod would have a Schwintek slide. Does it have the aluminum strips at the top and bottom of the slide ends (that the gears on the drive motors engage with)? That's a Schwintek slide as StephenH indicates.

i didn't even know there were different types of slides. lol. I'll have to look at it. my trailer is a 2015 176T model. it functions fine, i do believe. I just don't have any experience with them at all. this is my 4th camper, but first slide, so i'm a bit nervous, or cautious.
Thank you. |

What system is your slide-out using? If it is the Schwintek, it will have tracks on the sides at the top and bottom of the slide-out box. Those should keep the slide-out moving pretty much evenly. If it is the one that is underneath, I don't know as I do not have experience with that system. I think as long as it isn't binding, but moving smoothly, the little bit of tilt should not be an issue as long as when it lands in or out it is straight.

I am new to r pods and having a slide. I notice when I bring the slide in or out it tips slightly, then straightens itself up when it lands all the way in or out. is this normal? or is there something that has worn that I should repair before it gets worse? thank you.
