Question

I have 98'' Avion 5th wheel. One of my slide outs (5 x5 box) when extended tilts in and does not seal. It does not bind. Is there a way to adjust the slide out or do I have bigger problems?        Thanks   Rick Medina

Hi There!

Thanks for choosing Just Answer.

When you run the room out and it tilts in is this at the top?

With it in at the top, IF you push the top will it move at all?

Thanks.

From the interior side I can push it in.

Accepted Answer

OK

To me this does sound like an adjustment issue and nothing major. The first thing to do is inspect the top of the slide room, make sure nothing is preventing it from extending out all the way, believe it or not I have seen this happen. You should be able to adjust your room. This is difficult for me to tell you because there are many different slide rooms and so many different adjustments. Sometimes dropping the room down slightly will allow the top to tip out. What ever adjustments you do make, do them in small increments. I like to look at the slide room in and make sure it is square and if you have any paint lines that they are lined up. You should also have a in and out stop, usually this likes like a bolt that you can turn. I would try to experiment but if you feel things are not working out have a reliable RV shop have a look. Hope this helps.
