Rpod 178 slideout - Event Date: 20 Sep 2014

I have a question about the slide-out. When retracting our slideout the top of the unit hits before the bottom. The motor strains but still pulls the bottom in completely until it seals and the ratchet sounds. Do all slide-outs operate like ours or should the seal hit top and bottom at the same time? Is there any adjustment if needed? Any info would be appreciated.

We have a 179 with the slideout , ours seems to come back as one complete unit with the bottom and top hitting at the same time.

Not sure, but I pick my 178 up next Friday and I will ask and come back and post here. 

Answered on the other forum but this is normal and the way our slides work, they are one track so they are going to go back and fourth and then click click click at the end once both top and bottom are fully retracted or extended.

Thanks for the followup to the slide question Podster. This is why I love this forum, the group is a collective wealth of knowledge and experience and willing to go the extra mile to help others. Thanks again Podster and happy trails!
